:52:04
I don't mind! I can manage!
:52:09
Old friend...
:52:11
it may be time
for you to move on from Romeo.
:52:15
Move on?
:52:16
To what?
:52:19
Lear?
:52:21
Mr. Nickleby will take that part.
:52:24
And do you not think his friend
would make a smashing apothecary?
:52:33
His face practically erupts with drama!
:52:38
What an acquisition!
:52:40
These speeches! Listen to this.
:52:43
"Oh, that I were a glove upon that hand...
:52:46
"that I might touch that cheek."
:52:48
Are you worried
about how to memorize so much?
:52:51
I am, and I have barely a word to say!
:52:54
It is not only that...
:52:55
but a desire to know someone
to whom I could say such things.
:53:00
My father told me that the great journey
of my life would be to find such a person...
:53:05
but I'm nearly 20 years of age,
and I fear he may be wrong.
:53:10
- I hope not.
- I hope not, too.
:53:17
May I ask you why you were so upset seeing
that savage come through the trapdoor?
:53:24
You asked me yesterday if I had a memory
about my life before Yorkshire.
:53:28
There is but one thing I remember.
:53:32
It was the room in which I was kept.
:53:36
It was a lonesome room
at the top of a house.
:53:39
There was a large black hook
that hung down from the ceiling.
:53:43
Underneath it was a trapdoor.
:53:48
I was so afraid of what might be
on the other side...
:53:51
that there was not a single night
I did not cover my head in the bedclothes.
:53:56
So today, when a door so very like it
opened in the dark before me...
