I shall want two more in a week's time.
:31:20
Is that possible?
:31:22
- There won't be any more sales.
- Father.

:31:26
Not since the news.
:31:29
News?
:31:32
What is it?
:31:40
- Can you not go see her and ask?
- No.

:31:43
That would arouse suspicion
on her father's part.

:31:47
She will come to us and tell us, I feel sure.
:31:50
I shall ask my sister and mother.
:31:52
Their feminine sympathies
may shed some light.

:31:55
There is no need. Your sister is here.
:31:58
Forgive me...
:32:00
but there is a matter about which
I am harboring the gravest concerns.

:32:04
It is Smike.
:32:08
Inhale.
:32:12
Again.
:32:14
He's gravely ill.
:32:15
Every token of rapid consumption
is present.

:32:18
His only hope depends upon
his being instantly removed from London.

:32:23
- Devonshire's the best place.
- We come from Devonshire.

:32:28
Whoever takes him should
prepare for the worst. He may never return.

:32:34
Good evening.
:32:43
Father...
:32:44
I know I am stronger than when you left us,
but not strong enough to lose Smike.

:32:50
If this is what that strength is for,
then I do not want it.

:32:54
Not Smike.
