00:02 This is a letter from the University of Oxford.
00:04 It says I won a scholarship.
00:06 A full ride to Oxford?
00:08 Did you just get here now?
00:10 Carolyn.
00:11 Edward.
00:12 Oh, God.
00:13 Sorry.
00:14 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:18 First time in the UK?
00:20 What gave it away?
00:22 The stars in your eyes.
00:24 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:27 I have a lot to do, and I need to stay focused.
00:29 I think it's about time Dr. Drake loosened up.
00:32 I second that notion.
00:33 Cheers, ladies.
00:34 Your friends, they signaled to you before they left.
00:36 Signaled?
00:38 Like that.
00:39 Oh, God.
00:40 BDH.
00:42 Tall, dark, and handsome.
00:44 Yeah, well, he's proving to be quite the distraction.
00:46 There's a lot you don't know about me.
00:47 I know, and it's killing me.
00:49 Come on.
00:49 So you remember I told you that you're difficult?
00:53 Well, this has been great.
00:54 More tea, anyone?
00:57 This is why I'm here, to work and earn my doctorate.
01:00 And someone explained to me that I was in danger
01:02 of losing my scholarship.
01:03 Whatever you think this is, I can assure you you're wrong.
01:07 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:11 You wear this brave face, but inside you're
01:13 just as scared as everybody else.
01:14 You do not know what I've been through.
01:16 You pour over the words of dead people,
01:19 but you don't let yourself feel those same things.
01:21 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:23 The strength you speak of?
01:27 Perhaps you're looking for it in the wrong place.
01:29 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:31 Talk to him.
01:32 Why?
01:33 Because you love him.
01:35 So what happens now?
01:37 That's the question, isn't it?
