00:00Wilson, are you my friend?
00:10Your friend?
00:11Yes.
00:12I'm very much in need of friendship and help at the moment.
00:14Oh, I'm not fond of you.
00:16I'd do anything to help you, Miss Barr.
00:19Wilson, I'm going to marry Mr. Browning.
00:22Marry?
00:23Yes.
00:24Does he know?
00:25No.
00:26And he mustn't.
00:27Nobody must.
00:28You just think not, indeed.
00:29Oh, Miss Barr.
00:30I'm not glad.
00:31After we're married, we're going to Italy.
00:32And Mr. Browning would like to know if you'll come with us.
00:33To Italy?
00:34Yes.
00:35Will you come?
00:36Well, Miss, I don't see as how I can help myself.
00:37Not that I hold with foreign parts.
00:38I don't.
00:39But husband or no husband, you'd never get to Italy alive without me.
00:40No.
00:41Thank you, Wilson.
00:42Now, I want you to take a letter right to Mr. Browning.
00:43You'll have to take a cab at once.
00:44A cab?
00:45Yes.
00:46Go and get on your things, and I'll have it finished by the time you're ready.
00:47Yes.
00:53Hurry.
00:54But, Miss Barr, is it to be at once?
00:55No, no.
00:56Probably not for a month or so.
00:57Be quick now.
00:58Yes, Miss.
00:59I'll bustle, Miss.
01:00But, Miss Barr, if it's not to be for a month...
01:01Oh, yes, Wilson.
01:02I know I'm absurd, but I may lose courage.
01:03Besides, I believe Mr. Browning will be glad to get my letter.
01:04Oh, I'm sure he will, Miss.
01:26Wilson.
01:27Has anything happened?
01:28What is it?
01:29Miss Barr sent this for you, sir.
01:37Oh.
01:38It's all right, sir.
01:48I was afraid that, perhaps, you'd...
02:01If you don't mind, sir, I think it's splendid.
02:17Oh, thank you, Wilson, thank you.
02:20Thank you, Wilson.
02:22If you don't mind, sir.
02:23Oh, yes.
02:24Wilson, I knew she'd do it.
02:25I had no right to be afraid.
02:26But I...
02:27I...
02:28I wasn't really afraid.
02:29Oh, no, sir.
02:30Wilson, do you realize that you are the bearer of the greatest good tidings since they brought
02:32the good news from Ghent to Wakes?
02:34You wait here now, Wilson.
02:35I'm going upstairs and tell the good news to my mother.
02:37I'm going to tell it to everybody.
02:38Oh, I wouldn't do that, sir.
02:39You wait here.
02:40Then we'll go back together and triumph to Wimpole Street.
02:42Perhaps we'd better have music, a band or something.
02:45You mustn't do that, sir.
02:46The master's come home.
02:48What's that?
02:49Mr. Barrett, sir.
02:50He came home.
