"Colum terence o'hara..." "Our father, who art in heaven..." "Hallowed be thy name." "Thy kingdom come," "Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." "Give us this day our daily bread" "And forgive us our trespasses," "As we forgive those who trespass against us." "And lead us not into temptation," "But deliver us from evil." "Amen." "Mother mary, help me!" "Thanks for coming along." "I only wish I could do more for you, dearest." "I'm becoming quite concerned for you," "If truth be told." "How so?" "In regard to your rather severe state of distress." "Colum meant a whole lot to me," "More than I even knew, I guess." "That's quite apparent." "He must have been rather a fine fellow" "To have so taken your heart." "I..." "I wish I might have known him." "You wouldn't say that" "If you knew he was a fenian." "You don't say." "A priest." "Remarkable." "Folks believe that's why he got killed." "The english found out about him" "And killed him." "The soldiers." "I wonder if it might not be beneficial" "For you to get away from here, scarlett" "From ireland." "Get away?" "Absent yourself" "From the geography of your grief, as it were." "I think it might do you the world of good." "Where would I go?" "Well, there's no question at all about that." "There isn't?" "England, of course." "Go on!" "Out of the way!" "There's the high mucky-muck lord fenton" "Away for a bit." "No regrets on the part of any here present." "Away where?" "England, where he belongs." "It's rumored that herself will be trailing soon after." "Mrs. Butler?" "Aye." "Can you reckon it?" "The woman must be daft." "It's been said about town" "That you're going to England." "Just a little getaway trip." "London." "They say london's a rough place, like." "I think I'll be staying out of the rough parts." "You'll never forgive me the cheek of it." "Of what, mary?" "Of what I've come to ask of you." "Would you take me with you?" "Take you?" "What do you mean?" "To England." "I'd work for the expense of it." "I'd take care of the baby, do chores." "Why would you want to go to England, mary?" "I cannot remain in ireland." "What do you mean?" "Why not, honey?" "God forgive me" "For the low, disgusting creature I am." "I'm with child!" "There, there." "It's all right, now." "It's all right." "Come on." "Does the father know?" "It's no matter whether he knows or not!" "I beg you, mrs." "Butler." "Take me away." "I'll work for the cost of it," "I swear on the head of your darlin' baby." "Who is the father?" "Jesus, mary, and joseph!" "Is there not shame enough in me condition" "Without putting a name to its cause?" "I beg you not to ask, mrs." "Butler." "I beg o' ye!" "Just calm down now." "Just calm down." "I cannot remain in ireland." "I daren't." "You do understand that, don't you?" "Is he a married man?" "Is that it?" "Yes, that's it." "He's a married man." "Supposing I did take you with me." "I'll be coming back." "You'd have to stay there," "At least until after" "What will you tell your parents?" "Oh, that will be all right." "I've thought it through." "I'd write them..." "And say I'd come" "To have a fondness for England," "That I'd decided to stay on." "And then after the" "I'd come home when I was able." "I've thought it through." "I beg you, ma'am." "Please take me with you." "Ha ha ha!" "Come on, come on!" "How long has he been feeling poorly, iris?" "Couple of days now," "And getting sicker, it seems." "Eleanor!" "Rhett told me you were here." "Sally." "How good to see you." "Rhett, iris has just been telling me" "Her rupert isn't at all well." "Been hurt?" "No, sir, mr." "Rhett." "He just bad off sick." "I think it's the fever." "How are you, fella?" "I've been better, mr." "Rhett." "Sure have." "Yeah." "I'd say you are fairly warmish, rupert." "The yellow fever, mr." "Rhett?" "Jesus, don't let it be." "I'll have a doctor have a look at you." "Meantime, keep him as cool as you can." "Well, we got 10 or a dozen cases in charleston." "There's that couple over at mrs." "Brewton's place." "Might be one at the mortons'." "Now this one." "I don't have to tell you, it ain't looking good." "We haven't had a yellow fever outbreak" "In four years, dr." "Fixe." "We got one now." "All we can do is hope it stays contained." "Whoa." "Number 3 pembroke terrace, mum." "Isn't it grand-looking, though?" "Nothing's too good for the irish." "Lord fenton." "Mrs. Butler is expecting me." "Yes, milord." "And I thought dublin was big." "From the look of london so far," "You could tuck dublin away" "In a corner of it." "I bought a little book" "About the places to see." "I marked some off." "Now how far is westminster abbey?" "Come in." "Tea, madam." "The baby's ready." "Thank you, mary." "Richard, this is mary boyle." "I brought her with me." "Mary, this is lord fenton." "How do you do, sir?" "Hello there." "How did you come" "To bring this girl with you to london?" "Mary?" "I'm helping her out." "Indeed?" "She's a big help with the baby," "And I'd have had to engage someone here anyhow." "And how are you helping her?" "She's got herself into quite a pickle," "As a matter of fact." "She didn't get into it all by herself, though." "She's gonna have a baby." "It's a darn shame." "I feel so bad for her." "Your samaritan inclination" "Appear to be flourishing, scarlett." "She was desperate." "She'll be a whole lot more desperate" "Before it's all done," "But I don't think she knows that yet." "I'll always love you, rhett." "And I you, my dearest." "This isn't the end of loving, is it?" "Never." "Will you forgive me?" "For what?" "There's nothing to forgive." "For not giving you our baby." "I feel so bad about that." "Hush, now." "If there could have been a bit more time," "I could have given you our baby." "Our baby will be with you." "I'll know that." "I'll take good care of it, I swear." "I know you will, dearest." "I know." "Kiss me now, rhett." "Kiss me, my lovely love." "I'll inform mrs." "Butler that you're here, milord." "Thank you, roberts." "Would you mind waiting in the drawing room?" "What's your game?" "I don't know what you mean." "Yes, you do." "Why are you here?" "Mrs. Butler offered me a helping hand" "In me trouble, god bless her." "How very convenient for you." "It was that." "And at what juncture is it your intention" "To disclose to her the origin of your..." "Trouble?" "If by that you mean" "Me bringing you into it," "I have no such intentions." "What exactly are your intentions?" "The best I can manage," "Lacking the wherewithal to get to america," "Which you denied me." "Aah!" "Get out of this house, you little slut." "I'll be that soon enough." "Sooner!" "Do you understand me?" "Do you?" "The understanding is for you to be doing." "I'll take the advantages" "As has been given to me by your shameless trollop," "And there's no one will say me nay." "Obviously she is unaware" "Of your true feelings, you deceitful little whore." "Deceit is it?" "There's the pot calling the kettle black." "Get out of my sight." "Aye." "I'll do that quick enough," "Seeing that to take meself from your sight" "Will remove you from mine," "And I'll welcome the benefit of that!" "Mother, may I introduce mrs." "Butler?" "How do you do?" "A pleasure to meet you, ma'am." "And my sister victoria." "Hello." "How do you do?" "You could hardly be expected to know," "But only the queen is addressed as ma'am." "Well, I'm not too used to the customs here." "Many of which are quite tiresome." "That would of course be a matter of opinion, mrs." "Butler." "Call me scarlett." "Excuse us." "Her name's scarlett, apparently." "I don't know the family." "Pleasant." "It is extremely tasty." "My son tells me" "You're to be the new mistress of ballyhara house," "Mrs. Butler." "Yes, I am, lady fenton, and delighted to be." "I understand you've restored it" "To something approaching its former splendor." "I don't know about that." "It's splendid enough for me." "I expect you're quite at home" "In ireland, mrs." "Butler," "In view of the fact" "That you are of irish extraction." "I love ireland, yes." "I'm afraid I can't share your feelings about that." "It was ireland that killed my husband, you see." "I don't believe I do." "Father was murdered by the irish." "Haven't you told her, richard?" "I don't know it could be rightly said" "Ireland killed him, lady fenton." "If my husband had not concerned himself" "With the welfare of that rabble," "He would be alive today." "I should warn you, mother," "That such characterizations of the irish" "Might cause some offense to mrs." "Butler." "I hardly think I need warnings from you, richard." "As for my feelings," "One can share them or not, as one likes." "It cannot be gainsaid," "They are a curious race, the irish." "Curious?" "How?" "Why, in virtually every aspect" "Of their existence, my dear lady." "Altogether, an almost primitive society." "If they had their way," "They wouldn't even speak english." "Maybe because that's not their language." "And we're forced to contend" "With the fanatical element amongst them." "I suppose you'd mean the fenians." "Murderous cutthroats." "My cousin was a fenian." "He was a priest." "He was most dear to my heart." "The english murdered him." "Really, scarlett, there is absolutely no evidence" "To substantiate that allegation, now is there?" "What an interesting name you have, mrs." "Butler," "If I may say so." "Scarlett." "So very unusual." "Quite unique." "Presumably one foresaw" "There could only be one scarlett o'hara." "May one inquire how you came" "To possess your unusual name?" "My pa." "It was my father's idea." "It's an irish family name." "My grandmother's name is katie scarlett." "The scarletts fought with the irish volunteers" "Alongside the o'haras" "At the battle of the boyne." "My father thought it'd be an appropriate name" "For a baby girl." "Why, how frightfully clever." "I should say your father had a quite..." "Singular turn of mind." "Well, we're a curious race." "You are a source of constant astonishment, scarlett." "Why is that?" "Surely you must realize" "That never in all my experience" "Have I been served champagne by a beautiful woman," "Or anyone else, for that matter," "Whilst standing in a kitchen." "Have a seat, then." "The kitchen's my favorite room in the house." "When we were little," "My sisters and I spent much of the time" "In the kitchen at tara." "I'll bet you've never been in a kitchen." "I believe you may be right." "Will we be lingering long?" "Probably not." "I'm sort of tired." "Then by all means..." "You should retire with all due haste." "I guess I'll be sending you off" "To your own bed first." "Oh?" "Sometimes a lady just isn't of a mind." "Of a mind?" "Don't be offended, richard." "I'm just not in the mood." "I assure you..." "I shall provide mood enough" "For both of us, darling." "That hurts." "Come along, now." "Be your customary inflammatory self." "I mean it, richard." "I'll see you to the door." "I'm not accustomed to sudden onsets of chastity, scarlett." "Chastity and I parted company" "A good long time ago." "You're hurting me again." "I think I'll just let you" "See yourself out, lord fenton." "I say." "Mrs. O'hara, isn't it?" "Hello." "John morland." "Dunsany, county meath." "Of course." "How delightful to see you again, sir john." "The pleasure is mine." "Are you in london on a visit?" "Just passing through, yes." "This is mary boyle from ballyhara." "She's stopping with me on a visit, too." "With her baby." "How do you do, mrs." "Boyle?" "A pleasure, sir." "I got a letter from mr." "Butler." "He seems pleased with the horse he got at the drogheda fair." "Perhaps you're in touch with him." "Actually, no." "Well, I must be running along." "I'm sure you'll enjoy the play." "They say it's charming." "I'm sure I will." "Mrs. Boyle." "Oh, never mind." "Just ignore the whole thing." "Good morning, alice." "Good morning, mum." "The post's come." "I've brung it for you." "Will there be anything else, mum?" "No, thank you, alice." "Sally!" "Oh, dear lord." "Rhett." "Is that all the faster that horse of yours can run?" "Do you have one of those to spare?" "Thought you took the pledge." "That was just for anne." "Did you come here to mock me and my horse," "Or got some higher purpose?" "I came by to see" "If you've grown a beard, lots of hair," "Like a hermit, instead of acting like one." "I guess I haven't been too sociable of late." "Well, the world's still out there, honey." "Lots of life still going on, despite your absence." "It'll keep." "Question is, will you?" "How about giving me a ride back to the house?" "Only if you offer some spirituous libation upon our arrival." "Come on!" "Hyah!" "You wrote scarlett." "How'd you know?" "She wrote me." "Letter came a few days ago." "It was a nice letter." "I can't imagine her writing any other kind." "Sounds as though she's liking England." "I was in England a short while back," "Right after the war." "I liked it." "Well, you know what they say." "Remind me." "Travel broadens the mind." "Did it broaden yours?" "Well, there's those who'd say not a bit." "Look here, rhett butler," "I said it before, there's a world out there." "It ain't flat, and it don't end" "At the dunmore landing fence line." "Get yourself away from here," "Where everywhere you look hollers out what's not there anymore" "And never will be." "If I were to go away," "Who'd you have to holler at?" "Don't you worry about that." "I'd locate someone else real quick." "Just close your eyes, grit your teeth," "And jump the fence, damn it." "Hell, it ain't even high." "You must be joking." "Nope." "Not going to be keeping company with me any longer?" "Are you" "I've made up my mind." "Perhaps together, we might be able to unmake it." "No, I feel real definite about it." "I'm not accustomed to being discarded like an old shoe, scarlett." "You've no cause to feel like that." "I should decide what I've cause to feel." "Don't make it something it's not." "I don't want to go on with it anymore." "I'm being a lady about it." "Be a gentleman." "A lady?" "You?" "How very amusing." "I'd appreciate it if you'd leave now." "I'm asking you nicely." "I so much prefer your not-so-nice aspect." "You've seen the last of that." "You really think so?" "I sure do." "Mightn't we at the very least enjoy," "Maybe delight in, an appropriate farewell?" "That's what I'm making right now." "Goodbye, richard." "But you haven't delighted me yet, darling," "Nor I you." "Now you're being coarse." "I don't recall you ever voicing any complaints in that regard." "No more than did your sweet, pretty irish colleen." "I'll start hollering if you don't let go." "You aren't listening, darling." "Listen." "Perhaps the only thing worse than being made a fool of," "Is discovering it to be so, don't you agree?" "I don't know what you mean." "Of course you don't." "Shall I tell you?" "It must surely be time you knew what I meant." "You're scaring me now." "I want you to go." "I want you to leave me alone." "Please, leave me alone." "All in good time." "Aah!" "Aah!" "Aah!" "Aah!" "Now, what was it we were discussing?" "Farewells." "Ah, yes, farewells." "You might ask mary boyle how I bade her farewell." "Oh, so terribly fond it was." "I might even say memorably fond." "I'm confusing you, aren't I, dearest scarlett?" "Yes, of course I am." "I promised a moment ago to enlighten you, didn't I?" "A promise broken is a promise owed." "The child she carries is mine, you piteous fool." "Aah!" "You filthy, disgusting, son of a bitch!" "I could kill you as soon as look at you!" "If you ever come within reaching distance of me again," "I'll kill you!" "Get away!" "Get away!" "Get away from me!" "As for your dearly departed cousin," "The good father colum," "The poor chap would be alive today" "Had he not the fatal temerity to meddle in my affairs." "What?" "What about colum?" "Why, the silly fellow" "Threatened to expose my liaison with dearest mary to you." "I couldn't have that, now, could I?" "Certainly not." "What choice did I have?" "Please, don't say you killed colum." "If you like." "Mum's the word, then." "Aah!" "Aah!" "No!" "No!" "Aah!" "No!" "Aah!" "Aah!" "No!" "If you don't get out of this house," "I'll call the police." "Ha ha." "Fancy the consequences of that for you, my darling." "I guess there's worse by way of consequences in this life." "Get out." "Get out!" "Get out!" "Get out!" "Aah!" "No!" "Aah!" "No!" "Help me!" "Help me!" "And you only learned" "The truth of this girl's child" "On the night of lord fenton's death." "Yes, that very night." "You hadn't the slightest suspicion before that time?" "None." "Mary will tell you if you can find her." "What I want to know is if you can find her." "It's only fair to tell you" "That in a city as vast as london" "Or any other, for that matter," "It will be almost impossible." "We can only hope that she'll come forward and make herself known." "Even if she did, she wouldn't necessarily confess, would she?" "Assuming that there's anything that she might confess." "Now, look here, mr." "Randolph..." "I'm not accusing mary of anything." "And the last thing I want to think" "Is that she murdered someone." "But it's real hard not to draw conclusions" "From the way things are" "I'm arrested, and mary disappears." "That's fair speculation." "When you learned that lord fenton" "Was the father of this girl's child," "How did you feel about that?" "I could've chewed nails is what I felt." "What woman wouldn't have felt that way?" "There's women would've shot him on the spot!" "Lord fenton murder!" "Front story!" "Get your paper here!" "Lord fenton gruesome murder trial!" "All the details!" "Thank you." "Good morning." "Lord fenton's grisly murder!" "All the details in the paper!" "Is there anything I can get you, honey?" "Rhett says you haven't eaten anything in two days." "They're probably cooking up my last meal right this minute." "Don't talk like that." "I ought to have known better than to come to England." "I guess that's a whole pitcher of spilled milk, isn't it?" "¶ I wish I was in dixie ¶" "¶ hooray, hooray ¶" "¶ in dixie- ¶" "Fenton murder!" "Read all..." "Scarlett..." "Is there anything..." "Come back to you a-about that night?" "No." "What's it matter, anyhow?" "You think they'll believe me" "And call the whole thing off?" "Where do they have it, do you think?" "Have what?" "The gallows." "I've never seen a gallows." "Have you?" "Is it outside?" "Have you seen it?" "No." "And you're never gonna, either." "Oh, sally, I'm scared." "I'm so scared." "Hush." "Ohhh..." "Hush." "Be upstanding in court!" "Put up scarlett o'hara butler." "The jurors for our lady the queen" "Present that you, scarlett o'hara butler," "On the 10th day of November" "In the year of our lord 1876" "Did feloniously, willfully," "And of your malice aforethought" "Kill and murder one richard, lord fenton of albemarle." "How say you," "Are you guilty or not guilty?" "Not guilty." "Now..." "During your observation" "Of the body of lord fenton," "Did you determine for yourself" "Any probable cause of death, inspector wilcox?" "I observed three wounds" "I reckoned was caused by a sharp instrument" "To the chest of the deceased" "In the general area of the heart" "Sufficient to cause death, I'd say fairly quick." "Was there any evidence" "Of this sharp instrument in the room?" "It was lying right next to the bed." "No question it was the weapon that done the deed." "Why not?" "It was covered with blood." "Are you going to have scarlett testify, john?" "I haven't yet made that decision." "Shouldn't she have a chance to tell her side of the story?" "Yes, but then she'll be questioned by the prosecution," "A not altogether felicitous prospect, should scarlett" "Good lord!" "What is it?" "It's the girl!" "The-the boyle girl." "Miss boyle!" "Miss boyle!" "Stop!" "Here!" "Mary!" "Stop!" "Miss boyle!" "Hey!" "Watch out!" "Oh!" "Mary!" "Mary, wait!" "Mary!" "It's all right!" "No!" "It's all right." "I just want to talk to you." "Calm down." "No one's going to hurt you." "My name's rhett butler." "I was married to scarlett." "You're lying!" "Mr. Butler's dead!" "Everybody knows it!" "I may be somewhat tuckered, honey, but I ain't dead yet." "Mrs. Butler's a widow!" "You're lying!" "I need your help." "Scarlett needs your help." "She needs it real bad." "There's no help I can be to her!" "Why'd you run away from scarlett's house, mary?" "Now, why'd you do that?" "You know scarlett's on trial for killing lord fenton?" "Do you believe she's capable of that?" "I don't believe so." "We know someone else did it." "We just don't know who." "But unless that person makes it known," "There's a good chance scarlett's going to be convicted of this crime." "She could hang." "Where are you taking me?" "To see scarlett." "No." "No!" "Stop!" "Whoa!" "Mary!" "Mary!" "Mary, don't!" "Aah!" "Is she alive?" "Just." "I understand you're the gentleman" "She has to thank for it." "I need to talk to her." "She's not conscious yet." "Are you a relative?" "No, a friend." "It's real important I speak to her." "Can you give her something to revive her?" "She has had rather a drubbing, you know?" "You might pop around tomorrow." "Can you give us her name?" "It's boyle." "Mary boyle." "How soon can I speak to her?" "Drop by tomorrow." "I'd get home and out of those wet clothes, if I were you," "Before you require some hospital treatment as well." "Good night." "I think it might be best" "Not to mention this episode to scarlett yet." "Let's not get her hopes up prematurely." "It may come to nothing." "Cheer up, old boy." "We're not throwing in the towel quite yet." "Did there come a time, mrs." "Boswell," "When you began to believe" "That the prisoner's relationship with lord fenton" "Was, uh, other than merely platonic?" "Other than what?" "Did you come to believe" "That their association was of an intimate nature?" "Oh, yes, I did that." "Can you tell us why?" "After I seen him coming out of her bedroom" "In the dead of night," "Though he didn't know I seen him." "On how many occasions did you observe such a circumstance?" "That circumstance was just the once." "But I know there was numerous others." "No further questions, milord." "No questions, milord." "You may step down." "Call your next witness, mr." "Whitlock." "Call mr." "Rhett butler." "Call mr." "Rhett butler!" "So." "Now, your former wife" "Never told you that she was carrying your child" "And that she ultimately gave birth to this child." "No." "Why did she not inform you" "Of so momentous an event in a man's life?" "She was angry with me." "For what reason?" "I decided it was time we parted company." "She sure didn't agree." "So she denied you knowledge" "Of the very existence of your only child" "Because you had left her?" "Looks that way." "Mr. Butler..." "Wouldn't you call that" "A rather extreme and irrational response" "For a woman-a wife- to have" "As a result of a fit of pique?" "I do think this calls for a judgment" "Which the witness is in no way qualified to render." "Quite right." "Mr. Butler," "Is it true that the prisoner" "Consistently and over a considerable period of time" "Represented to all and sundry" "That you were deceased and that she was a widow?" "Yes." "She lied?" "yes." "Well, in order to dispel any, uh," "Shall we say, curiosity" "In the minds of anyone here present today," "Is there any question whatsoever in your mind, mr." "Butler," "That you are indeed the father of mrs." "Butler's child?" "None whatsoever, sir." "Uhh..." "Ah, here she is, back with us." "Good evening." "Where am I, then?" "In bruton hospital, my dear." "Not where you intended, thank god." "Oh, dear jesus." "I've not died?" "No." "It's quite a miracle, in fact..." "Assuming you deliberately took a header" "Into the thames." "You did, didn't you, you naughty girl?" "Am I bad hurt?" "Remarkably little, in fact." "But..." "I'm sorry to have to tell you" "It was impossible to save your baby." "Oh." "The baby's gone?" "I'm afraid so." "Oh, mother of mercy, be praised." "I don't see why they had to put you up there, anyhow." "I was fit to be tied" "When john told me they were going to do that." "What better witness to reflect on your character, scarlett?" "Meaning my bad character?" "They're trying to hang you." "And all's fair in love and hanging, huh?" "Do you think I've got a bad character?" "I think you've got a bad habit" "Of making decisions today" "Without thinking about what they might bring about tomorrow." "The only thing that keeps me going" "Is knowing that if worse comes to worse," "Our baby will have you to take care of her." "I got something to tell you, scarlett." "It's about mary boyle." "What about her?" "Hello, mary." "They tell me you're making an amazing recovery." "I was glad to hear it." "I was doing a lot of beating about the bush" "The other night 'cause I didn't want to scare you..." "But you know what I was getting at, don't you?" "All things considered, there ain't a lot of doubt in anybody's mind" "About who did in this lowdown fenton fella." "In fact, I'd say there's no doubt at all." "Question is, what are you going to do about it?" "What are you going to do about it, mary?" "Things are looking real bad for scarlett." "Folks around here are just itching to string her up." "She's gonna be hung for something she didn't do." "I find it hard to believe that any decent person..." "A decent, god-fearing girl like you" "Could just..." "Stand by and let that happen." "From what scarlett tells me about you," "I find that real hard to believe." "Damn." "Lady victoria, did your brother ever have occasion" "To discuss with you his association with the prisoner?" "Yes." "On one of these occasions, did he make mention" "Of an incident in her past" "Which she'd revealed to him?" "Yes." "Hmm." "Could you tell us, please, the nature of that incident?" "I object, milord." "This evidence is hearsay." "She murdered a man." "She shot him." "I had to defend myself against his unspeakable intentions!" "It wasn't a murder!" "She's twisting it all around!" "Silence!" "Silence!" "Silence in court!" "Gone?" "What do you mean, gone?" "No one was at fault." "I assure you, there was no reason whatsoever" "To suppose that the girl would" "Gone?" "And then we began to hear the shouting," "Mostly mrs." "Butler's." "You couldn't help but hear" "They were having a most dreadful row." "She hurried up the stairs." "Lord fenton had come out of the drawing room." "Did she speak to him at that time?" "She stopped and shouted at him." "Well, what did she shout, if you remember?" "I..." "Couldn't forget." "She said, "if ever you come near me again, I'll kill you." "I swear I will."" "Those were her words." "Now, when you reached the open bedroom door," "What did you observe, mr." "Roberts?" "Mrs. Butler was standing by the bed," "At-at the bedside, and lord fenton was on the bed." "There was blood all over him." "Was there anything else" "Which you were able to observe, mr." "Roberts?" "Yes, sir." "I saw the knife covered in blood." "I swear by almighty god" "That the evidence given by me" "To this court shall be the truth," "The whole truth, and nothing but the truth," "So help me god." "In view of testimony heard earlier, mrs." "Butler," "Did you, in fact, reveal to lord fenton that you had once" "Shot and killed a man" "An enemy soldier?" "I told lord fenton that in confidence." "I didn't expect him to talk to anybody else about it." "What were the circumstances" "Of that unfortunate incident?" "He was gonna assault me." "Assault you?" "In what manner?" "In the worst manner a woman can be assaulted." "What was your response" "To lord fenton's refusal to leave your house" "Following his atrocious assault on your person?" "I was extremely angry." "Angry enough to retaliate?" "I retaliated as best I could." "I hit him, as I said." "Angry enough to kill him?" "No." "No." "Mrs. Butler..." "Despite your lapse of memory on that evening" "To which you have testified," "Do you believe yourself capable" "Of having murdered lord fenton?" "No." "I swear on my mother's grave" "I'm not capable of having done that." "At which point you say you fired the pistol" "At this enemy soldier, causing his death." "Yes." "Were there any witnesses" "To this violent episode, mrs." "Butler?" "No, I don't think so." "Actually, I don't recall." "Ah, you don't recall." "It was a long time ago." "To be sure." "I suggest that the evening of lord fenton's death" "Is not remotely so distant in time," "And yet you claim a failure of memory" "On that occasion as well," "Uh, between the moment" "When you were allegedly struck by lord fenton" "And the moment you allegedly discovered him to be dead." "That was different." "I hit my head when I fell." "I already said that." "Ah, so you did." "Uh, tell me, uh, mrs." "Butler," "Are these, uh, lapses in memory" "Habitual episodes to which you are susceptible?" "Not as far as I know." "I take it you're uncertain." "No, I'm not uncertain." "I suggest the statement" ""not as far as I know"" "Suggests a degree of uncertainty, mrs." "Butler." "You're just trying to twist me up." "I can't explain what I mean." "Much as you are unable to explain" "The death of lord fenton in your bedchamber, mrs." "Butler." "If you forget something, how can you know you forgot it?" "And by that very admission," "How can you dare claim with any certainty whatsoever" "That while in this state of- what shall we call it" "Uh, convenient amnesia, you did not commit the crime" "Of which you are accused?" "I know it in my heart." "Alas, mrs." "Butler, we are none of us here qualified" "To, uh, evaluate the reliability of your heart..." "And most certainly not the innocence you claim for it." "You have already confessed here in this court" "Openly to murder." "The yankee was gonna rape me!" "I had to protect myself!" "There were plenty of women in those days didn't protect themselves," "And they paid the consequences." "They paid dearly." "What I did then has nothing to do with now." "I did threaten lord fenton, yes." "But I didn't do what I threatened." "He did commit his vile assault on me." "He raped me..." "And all I did was hit him," "And he struck me, and the next thing I remember" "Was waking up and finding him dead," "But I'm not the one who killed him!" "I suggest..." "That it was your hand and no other" "Which took up a knife on that tragic night" "And struck not once but thrice" "Into the heart of richard, lord fenton of albemarle!" "I didn't!" "I didn't, I didn't!" "I didn't!" "You haven't had the slightest recollection, scarlett?" "No." "I'm trying to remember." "I've been trying, but I can't!" "I can't remember what happened!" "It's all right." "Calm yourself." "You don't really believe me, do you?" "You don't think I'm innocent." "You want me to remember I did it, don't you?" "Certainly not." "Well, I can't!" "I can't remember what happened!" "Have you agreed upon a verdict, gentlemen?" "We have." "Do you find the prisoner guilty or not guilty" "Of the murder of lord fenton of albemarle?" "Guilty." "Scarlett o'hara butler," "You have been found guilty of willful murder." "Have you anything to say" "Why the court should not pronounce sentence upon you?" "I'm not guilty!" "I didn't do it!" "I'm innocent!" "I swear I am!" "Prisoner at the bar..." "The jury has convicted you" "Of the dreadful crime laid to your charge." "The sentence of the law is" "That you be taken from hence" "To the place from whence you came" "And from there to a place of execution" "And there you be hanged by the neck until you are dead." "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "No!" "She's not the one done it!" "She's not the one!" "I believe I must've gone mad for a bit." "It just come on me all of a sudden like." "Aah!" "I done it for all the evil that was in him." "I done it for all the evil." "I want to thank you again, mary," "For coming out with it." "In the end, I couldn't do other." "Will they hang me, do you think?" "We'll try to stop that from happening, honey." "You'll have the best lawyers in town." "Sir john's going to stand for you." "I have no money to pay." "Don't worry about that." "And I'll be back to testify for you." "You're leaving this terrible city, then?" "I don't blame you." "Are you going back to ireland?" "Back to ireland, yes." "And my husband's coming with me." "It's time I made the acquaintance of my daughter." "Whoa." "Welcome to ballyhara." "What do you think?" "I'd say your tastes have improved considerably, scarlett." "You might be surprised at some of my improvements." "Come and meet your daughter." "She'll be sleeping." "She's even more beautiful asleep than she is awake," "And that's saying something." "Mama." "Say hello to your daddy, darlin'." "I don't have a daddy." "Well, you do now." "Here's mud in your eye, scarlett." "Coming from you, I'm not altogether sure how to take that." "Say something less suspicious." "To our daughter..." "The most..." "Beautiful little girl in the world." "Here's hoping she has her mother's brass" "And her father's brains." "That's a lot better." "You've been more decent to me" "Than I had any right to expect, rhett." "I hope you know I'm fully aware of that." "I wouldn't have blamed you" "If you'd never spoken to me again" "After you found out about cat." "I considered it." "We've got to figure out what to do now, don't we?" "Yes." "About our daughter." "Yes." "What'll we do?" "I don't know about you, scarlett," "But I'm going to get me some sleep." "Could I trouble you to point me to a bedroom?" "Uh-uh, scarlett." "Not a chance." "It's not what you're thinking." "You're being a donkey's hind end." "See what I mean?" "Now, what in god's name is that?" "I'd say it's the world's biggest bed, I guess." "You wouldn't know a little bitty thing like me was even in it." "You'd have to holler to even talk to me," "Which I have utterly no expectation of you doing." "I promise to be good." "You asleep?" "No." "You going to sleep?" "Yes." "Night." "Good night." "How are you liking ireland so far, sir?" "You just call me rhett." "It's a fine country, bridle." "It is bridle, isn't it?" "It is." "There's loads of us to know, isn't there?" "But you'll sort it out in time." "What a fortunate man you are, sir," "To have an angel for a daughter" "And a saint for a wife." "You could've knocked me down with a feather" "When we heard the news of mary boyle." "'tis a tragedy." "None to blame but herself, however." "True enough." "Scarlett was saying she and himself" "Would go over to England" "To give the girl whatever assistance they can." "Bless her heart." "Ain't he criminal handsome, though?" "He is that." "Looks to be plenty life left in him yet." "I suppose scarlett will know best about that." ""save you, o'donald," ""said the wise gray beggarman." ""and you, likewise, said o'donald." ""a wind's coming, and what is your craft?" ""I come from the outermost shores of the earth" ""from the glens where the white swans glide" ""at night and I lay..." ""at night and then..." "And at night on a cold, cold hillside."" "What are we going to do, rhett..." "About you and me?" "About her?" "About you and me and her?" "She ought to have both of us." "That's generally the best way." "The only way it'd be is if you could ever..." "Ever what?" "Love me again." "Pass the cream." "What makes you think I ever stopped?" "How about you divorcing me and marrying somebody else?" "That might've put the idea in my mind." "It was never a question for me of loving you, scarlett." "It was a question of living with loving you." "Maybe I could make that part easier." "I'd sure like to try." "How about you?" "Would you like to try, maybe?" "Maybe, if we took it real slow and easy." "Don't go doing me any big favors, rhett butler." "You may think you're god's gift to women," "But I'm not exactly over the hill yet." "Plenty of men" "You once said" "Heaven help the man who really loves me." "Do you remember?" "Heaven help me." "Well?" "Lord, how I've missed you." "You tell me the truth." "You really love me with your whole heart," "Or did you want me because you couldn't have me?" "Why, rhett butler!" "What a nasty thing to say." "I do love you..." "With all my heart..." "And I will forever." "I'd say we've been real nice to each other lately." "Wouldn't you say so?" "I'd agree." "It's a downright pleasure to agree." "You've changed, scarlett." "You think so?" "Mm-hmm." "You've grown up." "I'll have to get to know you all over again." "That might not be an altogether unpleasant experience." "I have no doubt you'll make it interesting." "Better than interesting." "I'll do better this time, I promise." "You'll probably wear me out." "I'm sure you'll manage just fine." "Hmm." "What're we going to do about our little difficulty?" "Which one?" "The geography one." "You in charleston, me in ireland." "You have any thoughts about that?" "Only one that makes any sense." "I'm listening." "Compromise." "In my experience," "Every time somebody suggests what they call a compromise," "It generally turns out to be something favoring them." "Not this time." "All right, let's hear it." "I'll give up charleston" "If you'll give up ireland." "For where else?" "We belong together, scarlett." "The world is where we belong." "All of it." "We can go anywhere." "As long as we're together," "The world will belong to us." "That's a lot of property." "Ha ha ha ha!"
