Mom, I'm so excited, I can't wait to see who they chose as queen.
You'll see when her governor he takes off his mask.
Vinnie tells me, 'How's Trix?' I to her: 'I don't know, but I'm here.' And she 'Not you'.
Wait a minute, girls. You know yourself.
To the balcony entrance. - All right, Joe. But just wait when you ask for a drink on the line.

Oh, get out of there.
I have a right to see who it will be queen, as much as all fine people.

There is no point in toasting her so much.
Still I think it's better yes leave it with me.
She'll be much happier with me. I promise I will love her to death.

And many loons on the right side.

This one's better for me.
Mr Morgan says he won't allow it to quit.

He was much sensitive. - Get out of here.
Next time you enter lady boudoir, knock.
Jack Morgan, if you'll be me sorry, I'll beat you up.
Sorry? You got what you asked for.

Maybe I'll be able to get into it your blonde head like this.
Look at this here. I personally like it.
And they consider it a museum who pay to see the freaks.
Look at that hair.
It's gold to me, and they consider it to blare only socks.
Let them go, Jen, see what they did to you tonight.
I knew he would.
You knew he would?
Well yes. The men had to come but they knew their wives would come out.
And you let me do it yourself a fool? - Yes.
You fraudulent ... - Don't forget, your father's feelings.
Why did you do that? - Because I love you. 130 00:10:42,491 --> 00:10:44,351 A wonderful way to show it!
I love you enough to show you that the two don't go together.
Our species and theirs.
Sugar, you are not aware of how lucky you are.
Handsome lady like me, handsome cloths from Paris
and enough diamonds to light it all of Tennessee.
Oh Jack, you don't understand. You will not understand.
I've been dreaming about it all my life. - Stupid dreams.
Just because I was born at the bottom,
because my mother's eyes failed from simple sewing,
because my father died of a swamp fever by planting potatoes,
is that why they punish me?
Who is punishing you?
When I was a kid, I used to leave to that big house on the hill.
She peered through the tarab. - So what did you think you saw?
Everything I wanted. And what I still want.
To be appreciated.
To live up there with these nice people. 148 00:11:42,790 --> 00:11:45,250 To be civilizedout human being.
I won't be all my life a casino girl.
I want to be high society.
Bankrupt nobility with patches on your pants?
I want those patches.
Miss Jenny, it's time for your performance.
You will see that these patches paid for it your diamonds. - Dangerous, huh?
I bet those who are me tonight will left, later to play for me.
Most would like a meal.
Good bodyguard! Where are you been all day?
What happened to me, it wouldn't happen to the dog either.
What happened?
You told me to charge those money from the debtor. - Yes.
Well, I went to his house, and he wanted to throw me down the stairs.
How do you know? - How do I know? 163 00:12:27,979 --> 00:12:29,382 Because they threw me away.
Didn't you just say it was wanted to throw you?
If he didn't, would he throw me away? 166 00:12:35,045 --> 00:12:37,075 Why don't you bring him back to Russia?
Hey Jenny, how does it feel be crowned?
Now I know.
He gets it. Invite him to play.
I did. - When you are healed, try again. 171 00:13:03,862 --> 00:13:07,649 Hi Jenny. - How are you? - Good evening, Jenny.
Black.
Thank you, sir. It seems that only you accepted my invitation.
Well, I wasted a bottle, and instinct a domestic pigeon brought me straight here.

You need my body to guard. - My problem. I can't refuse.
Boris, go help the bar. And without grip between serving.
Young Olderson loses a lot. - Yes.
With both hands. - What a mask.
And family silver is on the way to the pawnshop.
What are you saying? - Olderson plantation goes on sale next week for tax.
A shadouze? - Yes.
I can buy it and give it away for the playroom.
Olderson offers a certificate of debt.
Olderson? His credit is worth it here how much money whonfederations.
Just a little. I do.
Are you crazy? - Maybe.
The chances of you getting that money back are as if I was leading a choir. - My thing.
Less chance. 190 00:14:25,222 --> 00:14:28,493 Yes, Mr. Olderson. - Thank you.

and as far as i can remember, 208 00:16:05,718 --> 00:16:08,599 I felt this way.
♪ High in the bubble, guys, high in the bubble.

I never saw again.
Naughty, cheater,

Where did he go?
Come on everyone, you know where he went!
♪ High in the bubble, guys, high in the balloon. ♪ Among the little stars up about a month.
The queen was in the office, counting your money ... - Come on in.
At your service, I am your debtor. - By the ears.
Your croupier is not social,
broke my credit at 5000. He says you want me to come to you.
I thought you would to redeem this.
Unfortunately, I can't.
You can't? - Of course, if you turn your back, I can rip them.
But since I'm a gentleman, I won't.
No. You just leave it to me one way out. 238 00:19:02,165 --> 00:19:04,308 Do you have a gun?
That would not be the solution. You would stay my debtor, alive or dead.
You know, it's been thousands of years killing people for gambling debts,
and it never occurred to anyone.
You're out of hope, aren't you?
Maybe I can help.
Don't offer a charm, I tried.
I have one suggestion.
I have what you need, the money.
You have what I want.
Position, environment and name which everyone respects.
Not lately.
I want that name.
Are you offering me a marriage, my dear? - Call it that, if you will.
I'm honored.
I think you need this more than I do.
I know it's not fancy to take advantage of the situation,
you are stuck and I use it.
Yes, but I refuse to be reliable.
I hear Shadows is selling for tax next week.
Yes. I was hoping I would save it at stake.
Too bad you lose it.
No one ever lived there who is not Olderson.
But you shouldn't. 262 00:20:26,814 --> 00:20:30,490 What do you say? Let's toast for a bad deal?
Boss, she's here. He's upstairs in his room.
Excuse me, gentlemen.
Hi, where would you be ...
What's happening?
Don't touch the fire. - Are you crazy? - Keep it burning.268
And it needs a fire like this cold night.
I'm not so cold. - I say, let it burn.
Wait a minute. Half of this ship is mine.
All right, turn off your gender.
You're really crazy. - I fire boats behind.
Nothing will remind Memphis that it is Jenny Blake ever existed.
Are you going somewhere? - Yes.
Take off your hat in front of the lady.
I just married Alan Olderson.
ŠEDOUZ
It looks so magnificent.
So dignified and old.
When it rains, that dignity and greatness rolls in your bones.
You know, this is the first time that looking forward to coming home.
Good morning, Napoleon. - Good morning sir.
Jenny, the Oldersonians. - Good day.
Olderson, Jenny, my wife.
Oh, Alan.
I forgot to pass you on across the threshold.
Are you crazy?
Come on, Father. No Olderson did failed to convey the bride beyond the threshold.
You must have passed on my mother.
Please don't mention it now your mother.
Welcome to Shadows, my dear. - Katherine!
Yes, Julia. - Just a little.
I know how you feel and I don't mind. - Generous of you.
You were skillful enough to take advantage of my son's miserable condition,
and you force him into marriage, you will be wise enough ... - Please!
I know this is a terrible shock to you,
because you know who I am. - We really do.
What you don't know is how hard I try to be the woman Alan respects,
which you will all appreciate.
Julia, get the carriage.
We will find a way to achieves annulment.
Wait a minute, Father.
Looks like I missed it let me tell you about Jen.
Maybe my wife's family coat of arms not found in social news,
but she has something that willš appreciate even more.
Her financial position is undeniable.
You know, money. Money, what they do in Washington.
Not in Richmond. 309 00:24:51,710 --> 00:24:54,542 We have a basement full of Confederate money,
but father, like me in gambling always chooses the wrong color.
He bet on the gray, and the blue won.
Alan, you must be clear it's hers presence in this house is quite impossible.
As you wish, Father. But if go Jenny, go and Shadows.
It's like the title of a song, isn't it?
♪ If Jenny goes, so does Shedouz.
So what do you say?
Aunt Julia, don't you call the chariots?
Wait, Julia.
That's what I thought. Practical people, Oldersonians. 321 00:25:31,900 --> 00:25:35,294 Why are you gloomy? This is to be celebrated. - Please.
Miss Julia, Mr Olderson, you will not regret it, I promise.
Welcome home, Mrs. Olderson.
Open it, peasant. - Who are you? 325 00:25:56,378 --> 00:25:58,526 I'm a lady who wants to come in.
I don't see any lady.
Then stop having a bad drink.
If you look ahead, I am personally before you.
Mrs. Olderson's personal maid.
There's no Mrs. Olderson here.
Big boy, will you open the door? or do I have to break?
I'm not going to open the door for a woman from the docks.
Then stay where you are, because I'm coming in to beat you up.
Miss Jenny!
Where are you, Miss Jenny. This is me, Chloe.
Chloe, you're finally here.
I'm here, Miss Jenny. Teeth and nails.
The name is Mrs. Olderson. - Excuse me, Mrs. Olderson.
Where to put these junkies, Mrs. Olderson?
Anywhere. What kind of me roar awakened?
I met at the door of the slave who calls himself Napoleon.
He wouldn't let me come in.
Is it okay? - He is, but a muste to put in a new door.
We both experienced a warm welcome.
Don't mention anything warm. When I remember my new royal dresses.
All torn and burned. - Very important, it's just a dress.
Yes, but I was in it.
Where's the groom? - Shaggy rice from the hair.
They must have been excited when it was brought in a beautiful bride like you.
Hysteria.
Now unpack and find my dress
to come down and join to his family.
Well, hello.
What is this device?
Ma'am, it doesn't kill the flies but it scatters them.
Doesn't anyone work here?
No. The land is dry for planting cotton,
g Steven says nothing else to plant.
Well, we're just sitting.
No wonder everything goes down.
There is no profit when just sitting.
No, but there is a lot of rest.
Oh, Miss Jenny! - Hi.
I picked these flowers for your room.
Very nice. - And a little mint for grog.
David always said to be so refreshing.
Thank you, Miss Katherine.
Aunt Katherine.
I'm so looking forward to you He brought Alan home.
I'm glad to like it to one family member.
You immediately liked me.
Your brother and sister are different.
Julia and Steven have so much family pride,
I hope you understand and don't give that it upsets you.
No.
Alan is such a good boy, really.
Where is he? - I don't know, I didn't see him.
David wouldn't leave me on your wedding day.
But modern people are different. - David?
He was my fiance.
He was so handsome.
And we loved each other so much. 383 00:31:13,182 --> 00:31:15,034 Like book lovers.
Didn't you get married?385
No. No.
Everything was ready. My dress was made of white lace.
But ...
But what? 389 00:31:28,330 --> 00:31:30,021 Oh This is where we stay….
I'll put flowers in your room.
He plays so beautifully.
Katherine. - Yes, Julia?
Your sleeve is torn. - Is it? 394 00:31:54,910 --> 00:31:58,527 That lovely lace from your grandmother. - I'm so sorry.
How careless you are. Where were you?
I just nailed it and ... - Stupidly careless.
Those little nice things you have. - I'm going to change.
She is so sweet, Aunt Catherine.
She mentioned to me her fiancé, David.
What did she say? - She started to say what about him. What happened?
He left on his wedding day.
We were glad, weren't we, Stephen? - Yes.
He was a scum.
Good thing Katherine got rid of him.
But if she loved him?
Poor Catherine. - Crazy Catherine.
Julia, it's time to go we dress for dinner.
If Alan's wife forgives.
Yes, she would change that costume too. - What's wrong with this dress?
It cost a lot. I ordered it from New Orleans.
Price can't make up for good taste.
It's perfect for you.
I didn't know you were home.
Won't you ask where I am been all day? - Why would I?
You're a woman? - The wise woman doesn't ask.
What are you playing?
Just something I put together a long time ago.
It's nice.
Aren't you bored yet? - I do not like.
A shadouse, I think.
It won't work, Jenny.
We Oldersonians are weird.
We don't love each other, much less love foreign faces.
I got it.
We are those shadows, you see?
As much as she tried, what Mrfrom working, you'll never fit in.
Never. - I'll take the risk.
Why would you want to become one? part of this darkness and bitterness?
We made a deal. - You were wrong. 430 00:33:52,406 --> 00:33:56,335 We'll take everything you have and you won't get anything in return.
Nothing. - That's my gamble.
I should have told you all this last night.
I was so drunk last night that I didn't care.
And now, when are you sober?
Give it up, Jenny.
Leave Shadowsou while you're away became Olderson.
Thanks for the warning. - Your carriage, Mr Alan.
Going out?
I didn't want to ask.
You may ask, Mrs. Olderson. I'm having dinner outside the house.
I always dine outside the house.
Dinner with family is something which the stomach cannot withstand.
Come in.
Hi, Aunt Catherine.
I brought you the mint grog. - Thank you.
It will appeal to you. You look tired.
Oh, I'm fine.
It's so nice to have in the house someone he seems like.
Someone young and cheerful.
Someone who laughs.
I don't laugh much now. - I'm sorry, dear.
I want you to be happy here. Then you will never leave.
Leave? - Please don't never to leave. Never.
No, dear. I will not.
Julia.
Why are you here at this time?
I just brought Jenny the grog.
It's late, you should go to bed.
All right, Julia.
Please do not encourage Katherine. She's not well.
Even the smallest thing excites her, and then there is the problem.
What is this? 463 00:36:05,814 --> 00:36:07,345 Nothing.
Do you see anything behind my back?
That. Wood.
Since when can a tree walk? 467 00:36:15,946 --> 00:36:18,225 Just a tree outside the window.
What is that?
What is it?
That sound.
Chloe, you're on it. Fill my tub.
I understand.
Did you say something?
I hope so. - No.
Did you breathe heavily? - No.
Then it must be a ghost.
Chloe, don't you believe in ghosts?
No, but I'm scared of them.
Ish! Get away from me, baby! Ish!
Stop that voodoo chatter.
Just a raven. - A raven? It's worse than the spirit.
A raven is a sure sign of death.
Your superstition will destroy me.
I say that, honey. Let's get out of here until death picked us up.
You jumped from fire to pan.
Voodoo tells me we've reached the dam. Let's go while it can still be crossed.
Go if you like. I'm staying here.
The damn house is falling apart.
Yes. That's the problem.
No wonder people are being passed around here.
Chloe, we're going to renovate the house.
To be great and cheerful. When we are in doing so, we will renovate ourselves as well.
To proudly invite guests to meet me.
What's wrong with us?
That costume, for example. - What's wrong with him?
I've seen 100 people whistle when you first dressed him in Memphis Bel.
That's the mistake. People don't need it to whistle in front of the ladies.
Honey, when people stop whistling at me I hope I'm dead.
Yes, indeed, Mrs. Pansenby,
The Shadows looks fiercely beautiful since we refreshed it a little.
Nice of you, Mrs. Rally that you came by.
Too bad my husband is not here,
but Miss Julia, Mr Olderson and I we will do our best to entertain you.
Mrs. Reli, can I help?
Want another cup of tea?
But I have to fit.
Have the guests already left?
No guests, you know alone. - I know, but I wonder if you know.
Honey, I wonder if you see what I see.
It looks like there will still be guests.
He would not dare come here.
It is a sign for the shortest visit.
Chloe, get out of that door.
You know yourself. You can't stop it a man to just watch.
Hello, angel.
Hello. - I went through so I did wanted to see how big the lady was. 517 00:39:35,699 --> 00:39:37,441 Great, thanks.
How are they, Jenny?
They are wonderful. Everyone. They don't know what to do sooner to do for me. 520 00:39:44,947 --> 00:39:47,870 They take me everywhere. They're inviting friends. 521 00:39:47,871 --> 00:39:51,739 Yes. I see you mentioned in social news every morning.
You may be interested in hearing about the elegant check I got at the club
where nice people spend time and lose money.
Interesting.
It was quite a party that evening for baptism.
I thought you were in between dinners with the mayor
and coming to the reception Mrs. Reginald
maybe drop by,
for old times.
Yeah, why don't you come by, Jenny?
They would surely miss friends if you don't come.
The lady never neglects old friends though he must see them in secret.
That's right, ma'am.
Nice to see you, Jenny.
Forward.
Here's your grog, dear. - Thank you, Aunt Catherine. Really refreshing.
I started looking forward to him every night. - Me too.
And also our little conversations.
I would love to stay here with you instead of going to that concert.
You will enjoy it. - Don't you like music?
I love it. - Then why not change your mind and come with us?
Well, they didn't invite me. - They didn't?
Oh, Julia said ... - Katherine.
Come on, it's late.
What are you doing here in that dark and the gloomy room?
I work? Nothing.
I'm talking to myself. 548 00:42:45,974--> 00:42:48,704 At times I answer myself.
I already do that and I get it very strange answers.
Do your best to be polite.
I'm sick of looking at you sitting at home alone
every day and every night. - Get lost, Chloe.
Yes. But they should envy you at the opening of the Royal Club,
instead of hiding here. - Yes.
Yes, it would be nice to go somewhere
where you would be glad.
I said, get away. - Yes.
But I know someone who would be glad to see you.
You look beautiful and his eyes are ... - Get out of here, quick. - Yes.
And order my carriages. Mrs. Olderson goes to town.
THE KING CLUB
It will teach you not to insult the lady.
And not to hang out with those who insult the lady.
Boris!
Aw, ah! That I was 20 years younger.
Where's Morgan? - Follow me. That is, I'm following you, Mrs. Olderson.
I look forward to seeing you so much. 568 00:44:04,914 --> 00:44:08,764 Miss Jenny! - Good evening. - Nice to see you.
So, how do you like it?
It's wonderful.
The only thing missing is you, Janica.
And I tell him ...
Jenny! - Mabel. - Oh, Jenny. What a soul balm.
Mabel, you look magnificent.
Flo!
Jenny! - What happened?
You are drowning your sorrow or just watering.
The man took offense. He held it hands around her neck ...
I held it. He asked me to I was afraid she would leave.
You should marry me now.
What do you want a man who can't to beat Boris?
The same as a man who can.
Boris said "ah, ah, ah."
I'm not Russian, but I feel the same way.
Sit down.
It's wonderful here.
By comparison, Memphis Bel looks like an old remorker. That was something. That old tugboat.
I miss it sometimes. - Is it?
I miss you.
Not too much, as I see it.
You mean that? It's my doctor said I should eat more
and to exercise more at the same time.
So when I eat everything on this side,
i run to the other side ... 596 00:46:29,900 --> 00:46:31,806 How did you like my point, dear?
Great. Go there and sing on bis.
Not a bad point either.
What did you expect?
To dress in bags, sprinkle with ashes on my head?
To be in grief?
Jack, you don't have to explain. I understand.
You have to show someone new Paris cloths.
Give me a cigarette.
Oh no! I don't have fire insurance yet.
Your husband was here a while ago.
Nice to see yours at least money in circulation,
when you're not already.
Mrs. Alan Olderson.
Why don't you stop fooling yourself?
See how you look from table to table.
Now you wonder what Flo is doing?
Waiting for someone to give lose at stake.
Spend a few hours here and you will be alive again.
You're not Mrs. Alan Olderson. You're Jenny Blake under the false flag.
Leave that car, Jenny, go back to yours.
I'll never go back. I have what I always wanted.
A dignity, a name? - And everything that goes with it.
The roots are centuries old. - Is that all you get for your money?
Roots? - I am going home.
Not yet, I have a present for you.
In the office. - I no longer receive gifts.
This one you will receive.
Even the Oldersons would agree. 626 00:48:02,855 --> 00:48:05,434 Where are you going, honey? I'm hungry.
Great. Sit down, eat a steak to gain strength.
If he doesn't come backim in 5 minutes, you can sing another encore.
You know how to be kind and careful sometimes.
I bought it for you this afternoon of our conversation in your house.
I wanted to send it to you.

Chloe, are you sure it's Mr. Morgan got the invitation I gave you?
That's where I separated that Joe deliver in person.

She'll change her mind when she does saw who was here.
Exactly. You're going to look like a rose.
Nice, huh? - No beads? - No more beads for Jenny.
Hurry till I see as Aunt Catherine progresses.
She will like this reception.
Do I put perfume in the water? - If I look like a rose, so do I smell.
Aunt Katherine, you look wonderful.
Jenny, how beautiful you are to me donned such a beautiful dress.
You're welcome, dear.
You will be the most beautiful at the ball.
You're just tweaking me.
Until you come, sometimes I do seemed unable to withstand.
You helped me a lot too.
Let's not spoil the dress. - I had this when I met him.
I was painting in it.
Would you like to see? - I would love to.
Here she is.
Same as now. Except for the flowers in her hair.
I have to get flowers, if i should be the prettiest at the ball.
Katherine!
Where's Katherine?
On the balcony.
I picked flowers for my hair.
Your face is red.
I showed Jenny my picture.
Don't bother Alan's wife.
She didn't bother me.
I begged you not to excite her. - Tonight's excitement won't hurt her.
I have to dress up not to I'm late for the reception.
What did you tell her?
Nothing. I didn't tell her anything.
No, Julia. I swear I didn't.
Put them next to the punch bowl.
Light up in the next room.
Napoleon.
When guests arrive, announce them officially. - I know the label.
This is her most important night. I pride myself on bursting my corset.
To back off. Not in this family mention of pieces of women's laundry.
You should flush out your personality.
Get off the woman, the guests will arrive.
Remember to play many waltzes. - I understand.
I hear the governor loves them.
I love them too.
Katherine, that dress is too much décolleté for your age.
How can you say that? Oh, Jenny.
Everything looks so beautiful. - Yes.
As it once looked, many years ago.
Aunt Julia, we had some small disagreements but you were so wonderful for this evening
I want to thank you for helping me.
You're welcome, you're Alan's wife.
Still, I want you to know I'm grateful.
Touching speech, Mrs. Olderson. - Alan.
You're not even trained.
What an opportunity for a ball.
What a ball, Aunt Julia?
Your wife's ball, of course.
Did you drink, Aunt Julia?
Or can you lie when you're not drunk? - Alan!
No one is coming to your reception, Jenny. Nobody.
My aunt took care.
Don't pay attention to him, he's drunk.
Yes, Jenny. I'm drunk.
That way I can see it more clearly. And I hear more clearly.
Your friends' insidious laugh, for example.
I found out she was proclaiming everywhere that this is your ball,
that she, my father and yours will a loyal husband to be out of town.
This is not true.
Oh, won't there be a nice reception?
Well, my excellent torturer, isare you satisfied?
Too bad I had to interrupt you,
by the end of the evening you would be amazed out of luck watching her suffer.
You know I don't like when you drink.
Brigadier General and Mrs Hometown Pendagast.
Mr. and Mrs. Philip Samerville.
Mrs. Rosalie Henderson.
Mr and Mrs ...
Guests are arriving, sweetheart.
The Reverend Mr. and Mrs. Peyton Lee.
G Samuel Franklin.
Good evening, Mr Loford.
Good evening.
Mr. and Mrs. Loford.
Good evening, Your Honor.
Good evening.
Honorable mayor with wife.
Good evening, Excellency.
His Excellency, Governor and family.
His Excellency, Governor and his family.
So, you've changed your mind gambling daughter-in-law and decide to show up.
I could ask you why it is your rejection became acceptance.
The wife of a politician must not answer to personal issues while he is in the service.
I'll write a book later, well you'll know why we came.
Only the Devans Major remains who did not come.
Former Devans Commander,
starting tomorrow.
And I didn't like the laws that way which he introduces.
Done with politics, Mr Devans.
You see you were wrong for Aunt Julia.
I do not understand.
You'll tell her you're sorry for what you said, didn't you?
Can I?
Wonderful fun, Mrs. Olderson.
That you and your wife are here it means everything to me, Excellency.
Thank you my dear.
That I'm here tonight to me it means everything.
Good evening.
Can I?
Nice party, isn't it, Mr Morgan?
Isn't it?
May I have the next game, ma'am Olderson? - Nice to meet you, Mr. Morgan.
Don't you like to play, Major?
Oh, yes. Of course.
Sorry I'm late. - It is OK.
I know how hard it is for you to break away from Dolores.
She's wonderful Dolores. He eats like a horse but he sings like a canary.
Like a canary with a crew.
I know I taste bad for choosing women,
I don't like ladies.
You can't lose, Jackson.
They play for their dinner, don't they?
You don't know, but they play for all three meals.
And now, ladies and gentlemen, Mrs. Olderson was able to provide for you
a group of French players who just arrived in this country,
as they succeeded in doing so a new game that delights Paris.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Miss Florin and her dance group.
It cost me $ 2500.
I even ordered them from New York.
♪ Come with me and you will see
♪ New game
♪ It's new and cheerful
♪ the game is so daring
♪ First the lady rolls her eyes
♪ Then the lady leans over
♪ and jump high and everyone starts singing
You should jump sometimes. How can you just stand?
Relax, brother. Come on.
Oh, Dad. Here's Mom again.
They like it, Jackson. They like it.
You like them too,
otherwise ...
Wake up, doll.
Wake up.
Go Chloe, I don't want to wake up.
The reception ended.
All I have left is a memory and headache.
It was real.
That you have my head she wished she hadn't.
And that Napoleon. When that one relaxes he just melted away.
It was a wonderful party.
Get up. Miss Julia says that he wants to see you right away.
Miss Julia? - Yes.
What does he want? - I do not know, she just said she wanted to see you.
Give me the robe.
Don't move so fast.
I need to get the dust out of my eyes so I can see.
Go back to bed.
I can not. Only to find a bed who spins with himself.
Whenever I lie down, the pathos rise
he looks me in the eye and makes fun of me.
Pretty. - It's yours, Jenny. - Mine?
With your horse you will be able more to move.
Aunt Julia ... - Like you said yesterday, we had small disagreements,
but that's all in the past. I hope you accept it.
Accept?
I'm sorry for your problem. Now I get it why the horse brought me here.
He turned this way without me stated.
Mrs. Olderson, my black man is not used to it to see the ladies ride.
It bothers him. Let him go continue your work.
I would love to get home in time to change for dinner.
Sit here and you will be for an hour at home.
You are very kind, but I prefer to wait for my driver.
Jack Morgan is not here to force mine husband to do something I don't want.
Jack Morgan?
Yes. The party was wonderful, Mrs. Olderson.
And his letter of thanks I sent it to Jack Morgan.
Where's Morgan? - Look at the sugar.
Please stop it you push your nose into my business.
But look ... - Last time, do not run into my life!
Jenny!
I don't know how Miss Jenny got here here. She must have led the horse slowly.
Because that horse ...
Miss Jenny, don't get in that car!
I told Miss Julia when I sold her a horse to ...
That's the horse I sold To the Oldersonians as a stallion.
I'm not interested in the marital status of the horse.
The horse is blind! 864 01 01:09:17,222 --> 01:09:20,433 Blind? You sure? - I'm sure.
I told Miss Julia when I sold it to her.
Jen!
Miss Julia, Mr Olderson!
What is? What is this?
What is? - She shook a little.
Terrible. Bring her here.
What happened? - Your wife had an accident.
Really. - Give scented salts.
Give her this. - Napoleon, send for Dr. Childers.
Looks like I couldn't I control the horse.
You okay, Jen?
I'm fine.
What are you going to do in this house?
I told you ... - I know. - I meant it seriously.
Oldersonians don't want your company.
So neither do I.
All right, Mrs. Olderson.
You wanted high society and you got it. You can keep it.
And at the King's Club we change the poster.
I do not want high society there.
Because you and your family would maybe tried to get in.
And I don't want you or them from now on.
I'm glad it did we finally understand.
When you get in the car after this don't look at the gifted horse in the teeth,
look him straight in the eye.
You'll see he's blind.
Blind?
Blind as a bat.
Miss Julia should know. The vet told her when she bought it.
Goodbye, high society.
You knew the horse was blind when did you give it to me?
Julia!
You can't believe it. Obviously, yes the vet wants to cover up the fraud.
That's right. I've known this cheater for years.
You know your sister for years too, Mr Olderson.
Your face shows that you are not sure what she's capable of.
Young woman ... - Let her finish, Steven.
Looks like it seems to her we wantevil. Why exactly?
Because I'm Mrs. Olderson and you can't stand it.
Because there's something terribly bad here in Shedouz.
Something I see in your faces when ...
you think i'm not looking at you.
Something terrible that turned it Aunt Catherine
from a lovely young girl at
terrified helpless an old woman.
Something you're afraid to find out
that's why I don't like you. - You don't like it? I despise you.
Like any decent person in this city.
And I demand that you leave this house immediately. - Should I leave? I'm the owner.
And no, Aunt Julia. Not me to go than you.
You and every other Olderson who he wants to go with you.
Did you ring, ma'am? - Bring that grog to Miss Jenny.
Julia, that's my job yes I'm making a grog for Jenny.
Napoleon, do as you say.
You've never cooked it for her before.
Don't be childish.
Julia, your shoes are muddy.
You went to the swamp.
Yes, I went to see how much poisonous corns spread.
One Pekingese mistakenly ate some berries and died.
It must rest.
Julia!
It was a crochet mint. You put the cuckoo in the grog.
You want to kill her like you are killed my David.
Let me go! Let me go!
Shut up. You heard what she said. That they will throw us out. Olderson.
That bar ... - You hate it because it's beautiful.
You're a ferocious jealous woman.
You killed my David on our wedding night because you were jealous.
He loved me and you wanted him.
You better kill me too.
Now you want to hurt her but I won't let you ... - Silence.
You won't think of Jenny Blake but think of us.
To me, the first Olderson whom a stranger is thrown out of Shedouz.
Nowill let me it happens. Can you?
Can you?
You can not. Same blood. From the same bed.
I'm your sister. You'll never tell.
Never say. I'm your sister.
Sister.
Your grog, ma'am. - Put it there.
Can I?
I changed my mind. I don't want a Shadows. I won't live here anymore.
Give it back to your family with my congratulations.
Where are you going? The King's Club? - Hardly, after what Jack Morgan said.
Where are you going? - Do not worry about me. I can handle it myself. I already am and I will again.
It's important that I leave here.
Jenny, you're a gambler.
Have you ever started a trifle game, well in the middle of the game do you find yourself playing for dollars?
What are you talking about?
It must be our contract and some better side.
Maybe if we both did our best.
It wouldn't work, Alan. I'm not fooling myself anymore.
Maybe in another city? Maybe in New Orleans.
Where no one knows you are Jenny Blake and that I am Olderson.
You can't stop being Olderson.
No, I guess I can't.
No. You have to see how your life crashes,
that your land is failing, and the house is falling apart.
Your courage is gone and your heart remains capable only of hatred.
You fear death and you despise life.
You have to see it all to be Olderson.
After so much of the story, there is something to drink.
May I?
Yes. Of course.
You know, I've never been able to to see a full glass and not drink it.
ALAN OLDERSON KILLED WIFE ON EXAMINATION
JENY BLACK ACCUSED
MEMFIS IS SEEKING JUSTICE
THE JUDGE JANE BLACK TRIAL BEGINS TODAY
♪ The devil laughs when he chooses you
That's what I'm singing about.
♪ I'm selling amulets against a murderer's wife
Avlja stops the poisonv and dull the knife.
El The executioner is ready, has his rope
Shut your mouth, bone and skin!
Until I stained these stairs your remains.
It's full. - I'm a witness.
All right.
What kind of wife is this woman? That Jenny Blake of Memphis White
killed Alan Olderson.
What was that gentleman hiding?
a member of an old and respected family
against the defendant to have a murder reported in her heart?
I'll tell you, gentlemen.
I'll show her the whole story, Step by step,
until it's clear to you, such as me.
How intrigued she was to leave the dark life in the casino,
to blur the peace in the high the Memphis Society.
How did she get convinced with hers lover Jack Morgan,
to become the queen of the carnival.
How society rejected it.
And then how she made sure she took revenge
tricking Alan Olderson to take her for a wife.
But she did not intend to be his wife.
She didn't need to be gentle the love of the husband.
Love she still had from someone else.
For months after that, it was Alan Olderson suffered humiliation,
until finally, hopelessly in love with her,
and tortured across the border human endurance
he did not claim his legal right as a husband,
and because of that, gentlemen, accused killed.
I demand a change of place. - Red!
The defendant is entitled to a chance at life of what will not gain in this biased court.
Contempt of court!
And I can add, Mr. Morgan,
your claim days in this one the country is nearing its end.
You are aware, Mr Olderson, that he is your son became depressed after his marriage
And that this depression was growing from bottom to day.
Yes. - Would you say it was because of his wife's reckless behavior?
No.I can say. I do not know.
You stated that the accused was secret met with Jack Morgan?
Will you tell us where?
One night in a shelter part of the garden.
There were other opportunities? - Yes.
Many other opportunities.
Have you visited Mrs. Olderson? in Shedouz after the wedding?
For once.
Answer yes or no.
Did she visit you in your casino?
For once.
You were in love with her, weren't you?
Objection!
Red. Red!
Ask a different question.
You will admit there was some love between you and the accused.
Logan, I knew you were a fraud when I allowed you to be a prosecutor.
I figured one day I would I have to remove you,
but I didn't think I would have to to kill you.
Show him, Mr. Jack! Show him!
If you need help, here we are. - We like to beat prosecutors!
Sit down! - Don't yell at us!
And be careful never again don't be late for a meeting!
Have you seen the cup of grog in her room that night?
I did. And I saw him every night and there was no poison in it.
I would finish it too if Miss Jenny wouldn't drink it all.
Maybe Mr. Olderson is sometimes drank, and Mrs. Olderson knew it.
It's not.
My little girl didn't save drink that evening.
My girl is not. She wouldn't did no harm to anyone.
She has a good and big heart.
She's not bad at how you portray her.
She didn't make that drink.
Miss Olderson, I must I ask a few questions.
Was it your custom to save grog of mint for the accused
and take it every night to her room?
Yes.
The night your nephew died
did you bring her mrhorn?
I can't remember.
Calm down, Miss Olderson.
Answer my question.
Sister. Your sister.
You will not betray me.
You won't dare.
Your sister. Your sister.
Did you take her grog?
I did.
Did you save it and know it what's in it?
I did.
How much do you know when you brought it in to the defendant's room that night
it contained the same ingredients like the previous nights?
Yes.
JENY BLACK'S BLOOD
♪ Jenny Blake, you were hurt
♪ because you come from the wrong side of town
Before I deliver my judgment
do you have anything to say?
I didn't kill my husband and you know it.
The reason they accuse me here for a crime I didn't commit
is that I wanted to be like you.
High society.
I didn't see malice, ferocity,
jealousy. I heard laughter but i didn't know how empty it was.
I wanted to escape by Mabel, Flo, Morgana
because they were just like me. Rubbish.
Now I know I quit real people,
warm people and came to the trash.
Yes, the garbage he sits on and hates
sitting and waiting for her to come back slavery.
To return cotton, to return the spirits of their sons.
Zombies, which are not so many decent to stay buried.
That's right, baby, show 'em.
Silence!
You came as vultures to see how they judge me for Alan's death,
to hear about the scandal about Jackson Morgan and me.
Was I just his partner in Memphis Bel or something.
Still trembling with curiosity. Come closer, I'll tell you.
I love Jackson Morgan,
and now there is no law which he says I must not.
You can hang me and I will still love him.
Is that all?
Jenny Olderson, on purpose killing your husband
Alan Olderson
here I condemn you to be led to where you were brought from
thence to the place of execution ... - No!
No!
I lied! I lied!
Julia made that drink, put poison in it.
She wanted to kill Jenny.
Just like she killed my David many years ago.
I was silent because I'm Olderson.
But I'm glad Alan is dead. I wish we were all dead.
All Oldersonians.
I'm free!
Will you... do you want me now, Jackson?
Only if you promise you will sew buttons and cook meals
and patch my socks.
All right, honey,
I'll get your socks on
but I warn you, from now on they will call you Bossy Jackson.
And you promised to cook, sew and you patch my socks.
Why don't you keep your promise? - Because I'm Jenny Blake, not a lady.
She changed her club name to Queen's Club. Everyone says you handcuffed me.
My father would be very unhappy when you hear ... - Hang up your dad.
Heart! Well, that's what they did.
