Even Maria is
becoming impatient.

:25:03
Only for His Majesty's
recovery, sir.

:25:06
Now the Lord Chancellor has come
out in favour of Your Highness,

:25:10
the end is surely in sight.
:25:12
I have always
been in his favour.

:25:14
Of course.
:25:16
Although the present situation
calls for a certain delicacy.

:25:19
This is your father, sir.
Be kind.

:25:22
Rely on your oars, sir.
The tide is with you.

:25:26
The tide?
:25:28
Rely on my oars?
:25:31
George!
:25:32
Your Royal Highness
has but to wait.

:25:35
Wait?
:25:37
Ha. Wait.
:25:38
Lord Chancellor,

:25:54

is not a position...

:26:04
It is a predicament.
:26:12
She has more sense than he has.
:26:17
It takes character to withstand
the rigours of indolence.

:26:39
Maria is not mentioned.
:26:41
No, sir. It is a little
early for that.

:26:45
It will happen, Maria.
I promise you.

:26:49
Won't it, Thurlow?
:26:51
Sir.
:26:56
No.
:26:57
No, this must not be.
