00:04:39 I am trying, Miss Holt. Really.
00:08:59 I've just rung to say that one of our best women is on her way over to you now.
00:12:12 Pettigrew. Guinevere Pettigrew.
00:14:41 Allow me.
00:18:05 It wants to stay, even if it means death.
00:20:38 No. I'm penciling now.
00:24:06 But I was the desperate one. I'm always desperate.
00:28:04 Guinevere! Don't dawdle, we're late!
00:30:59 Tempestuous is the word that the magazines use.
00:34:20 Haven't we met before?
00:37:23 Oh, yes. Just a moment.
00:40:31 Can you ever forgive me?
00:43:07 I was scared.
00:45:53 So you marry him.
00:49:07 Yes.

01:23:31 Are you really going? - Mmm-hmm!
