Which of them is this
designed to humiliate?

Neither.

It's to repay Miss Hankins
for her kindness.

And to see how far
Edward would go
to prove he's a human being.
she was given some awesome zingers 🔥
#Sanditon

Edward...

Might I persuade you
to dance?

Sister, I would gladly...
Not with me.

I'd rather dance barefoot
on broken glass.

Miss Hankins.
#Sanditon

I am trying to follow
Georgiana's advice
and be more reserved,
but it is so hard
when I am with him.

Try not to fall too fast,
Alison.

Can't you feel
from my heartbeat
that it's just too late
for such advice?
#Sanditon

Wait, what just
happened?

You threw a four.

They lost, you won.

And if I'd not thrown a four?

You'd have paid back
double the stakes.

I need to sit down.

You played admirably, Tom.

You're a worthy opponent,
indeed.

Get this man
a bottle of wine!
#Sanditon

I suppose that toast
was for my benefit.

Don't flatter yourself.

It was for my own amusement.

And was it worth it,

given it has earned you
the contempt of almost everyone

in the room?

Almost everyone?

Who's the exception?
"I do not wish
to lose my money."

One of the few things Tom is good at, actually.
#Sanditon

Now, let's forget any troubles
we have with a game.

This is not the time
to gamble.

My brother is right.

I do not wish
to lose my money.

Then I'll stake you.
#Sanditon

At supper, Colonel Lennox
was highly complimentary
about your stepbrother.

I didn't recognize
the man he described.
#Sanditon

In battle, we defeated our enemy
by holding fire
until he was very close,
then charging with bayonets
and firing a single volley.

A rather extreme strategy for
educating an 18-year-old girl,
wouldn't you say?
#Sanditon

Do you remember the first time
we danced together?

The day my father
married your mother.

It took me an hour to find
the courage to ask you.

I was in awe of you then.

I still am.
#Sanditon

I must apologize for the
seating arrangements at dinner.

If it weren't for convention,
I would have...

It's all right.

I know my place
as a lowly governess.

There's nothing lowly about you,
Miss Heywood.
#Sanditon

Given you profess to
loathe the man,

you do seem rather
fascinated by him.

As do you, Arthur.
#Sanditon

Miss Heywood, would you still
do me the honor?

With the greatest
of pleasure, sir.
#Sanditon

Miss Lambe,

you should be dancing.

I insist upon it.

I have been waiting for you.
#Sanditon

I am sorry we could not
be seated together.

You might have saved me from my
infuriating dinner companion.

He certainly caused
quite a scandal.

Did I notice you smile?

Certainly not!

It was a grimace.
#Sanditon

I should like to make
a toast of my own.

In 1814,
Emperor Napoleon
abolished slavery.

He was not just a soldier,
but a man of vision.

A man who recognized
that ideas...
....rule the world.

Not might alone.

To Napoleon Bonaparte.

Out! Out! Out! Out!
#Sanditon

I notice the other ladies
are enthralled
by the soldiers in our midst,
yet you seem quite indifferent.

It takes a good deal
more than a red coat
and some brass buttons
to impress me.

Likewise.

I find our island's veneration
for the military
vaguely repulsive.
#Sanditon

Yes, I, uh...

I considered the Army myself.

But ultimately, uh,
I felt that
my gift for oratory was
better suited to the church.
