1:15:03
Can you imagine
Mr. Hasset's face?

1:15:07
- You will deliver it to him.
- I?

1:15:11
- Yes, but surely you would...
- No, I cannot leave the works.

1:15:14
- But you wouldn't...
- No, it's quite impossible.

1:15:16
They're only just recovering
from my last absence.

1:15:20
Then I shall...
1:15:22
on your behalf.
1:15:27
- Bellingen is approached by sea.
- Then I shall go by land.

1:15:30
You cannot. It is largely
unmapped country.

1:15:32
You think it is outside
my scope?

1:15:35
- There is no shame in that.
- There is no truth in it, either.

1:15:38
- I wager you I can do it.
You may nominate the date.
- This is madness.

1:15:41
I am prepared
to wager you...

1:15:43
that I can have the glass church
in Bellingen by, say...

1:15:47
Good Friday.
1:15:49
And what can you bet?
1:15:55
- Ten guineas.
- No, that's not enough.

1:15:59
What is enough?
1:16:02
Your inheritance.
1:16:05
My father may live
until he's 100.

1:16:07
- He's not a rich man anyway.
- That makes no difference.

1:16:09
- And you will bet? The same amount?
- Same.

1:16:11
The same.
1:16:14
My inheritance.
1:16:16
- But you already have it.
- Yes.

1:16:18
- Your works?
- Yes, everything.

1:16:22
You... You will wager
all that?

1:16:24
Yes.
1:16:27
Five weeks without...
without even a game of penny poker...

1:16:32
and... and now this.
1:16:41
Very pretty, this fretwork.
1:16:43
It is quite ingenious.
1:16:45
Ah, here is my head clerk.
1:16:48
Come in, Jeffris.
We have a question for you.

1:16:51
Miss Leplastrier, Mr. Hopkins.
This is from the horse's mouth.

1:16:55
Jeffris is quite the explorer.
1:16:57
He has been there, up north,
on the road survey.
