:40:02
What are you doing here?
:40:03
I come to offer aid
to the unhappy subject of your treachery:

:40:07
- Madeline Bray.
- Do you know her?

:40:12
I beg you for a moment alone.
:40:15
You were betrayed and sold for money.
:40:17
This web is of my own weaving.
I know what I am doing and why.

:40:21
I know why, too.
It only deepens my esteem for you.

:40:25
But you cannot degrade yourself
in your esteem...

:40:27
by giving yourself away
as payment for another man's debt.

:40:31
I will not disguise from you, sir,
that I have undergone some...

:40:37
pain of mind.
:40:41
I do not love the gentleman.
:40:45
This he knows,
and knowing, still offers me his hand.

:40:49
By accepting, I can free my father...
:40:51
Does your own happiness matter so little?
:40:54
Father is all that remains of my family.
:40:57
That is why I have come to offer you
a place in our home.

:41:06
You have been so good to me.
:41:10
But I cannot leave Father.
:41:12
He must come with you.
:41:18
He is too proud.
:41:21
I am proud, too...
:41:26
to know someone...
:41:29
so good.
:41:36
Madeline, come at once. It's your father.
:41:41
He wouldn't stir, even after I tapped him.
