"Miss Mardle." "How lovely to see you!" "Are you back for..." "Er, no." "No, I just need to find Ms Towler." "Oh, she's up on the roof terrace." "Is everything all right?" "Has Mr Selfridge had word from Monsieur Leclair?" "Ms Towler hasn't heard from him for a month." "Well, he's been assisting with the demobilisation of French soldiers." "Yes, yes." "We knew that, but this has arrived." "His face was a picture." "Selfridge had no idea I was going to be at the auction." "So how much did you push him up to?" "Thirty thousand pounds." " (WHISTLES)" " For a piece of land in Acton." "What I want to know is where he got the money from." "Rumour goes he's borrowing from Northern Standard Bank." "I'm meeting them." "My money has come through from America." "Same?" " Why not?" " Same, please." "Lord Loxley, good evening." "I need to talk to you." "Oh, I can see you look tired." "Did you sleep at all last night?" "A little." "Well, are you sure you want to come into work today?" "If Henri can't come home, or telephone me to tell me where he is, then I'm not going to sit around waiting for him." ""Last night, the head of Beauty and Cosmetics at Selfridges" ""was attacked by a group of ex-servicemen." ""Mrs Edwards is married to the celebrated author, Frank Edwards."" "Huh." "Thank goodness you were there!" "Why were you working so late?" "Er, Miss Webb and I were going through details of the housing estate." "Ah, Miss Webb." "I haven't met her yet, have I?" "(SIGHS)" "Where is everybody this morning?" "Gordon's gone to work," "Rosalie's in bed with a headache." "And Violette?" "She's still asleep." "Out late again." "She can't be going around town alone." "Not with this kind of thing happening." "I still think she should have gone to Chicago." "She's a grown woman, Harry." "You can't make her." "When they were young, it was easy." "They hurt themselves, you pick them up, you kiss them." "Make it all better." "But now..." "I thought she'd be settled." "The war got in the way for her." "Her and lots of people." "Morning, Miss Plunkett." "Can you organise a basket of Chelsea buns to be sent from this address to Miss Nancy Webb?" "Chelsea buns?" "Put a note with it, see if she can join me for a drink tonight." "Thank you." "(PHONE RINGING)" "City types." "Narrow-minded idiots." "What did they do?" "I went to five brokerage houses and not one of them would take me." "How am I supposed to run an investment company if I can't buy stocks and shares?" "It's not worth their while." "They rely on their reputation." "You were a war profiteer." "Is that going to haunt me for the rest of my life?" "Yes." "Unless you do something to turn it around." "Give money to charity or take up a grand cause." "You know, that's not actually a terrible idea." "Working every day seems to have sharpened you up." "I don't feel like it has." "I can't bear the nine-to-five grind." "Then come in with me." "Are you serious?" "You have contacts in the Square Mile." "I have money to invest." "Together, we can get things done." "You know, I might just take you up on that." "(BAND PLAYING DIXIELAND MUSIC)" "So, is he going to shut us down?" "I don't know what's going to happen." "He said he'd let me know." "Good evening, Mr Colleano." " George." " Mr Gordon, good to see you." "GEORGE:" "We had to come to the spot everyone's talking about." "George, you seat Mr Gordon." "I'll see to this gentleman." "Mr Gordon, there's a table down here." "Ripped By mstoll" "Well, Inspector." "Did you find him?" "Yes." "I'm glad." "Should give Mrs Edwards some piece of mind." "And..." "What are you going to do about us?" "Nothing." "You brought us information, which came good." "I'm letting you off." "Thank you." "I appreciate it." "But if you break the rules again, that's it." "No more second chances." "Well, now we're not serving after half-nine, we're losing that bar money." "The band, they're packing them in." "That's what they are coming for." "And we're not paying Purkiss ever." "Keeping our heads above water, just." " Oi." "Go in straight." " Squeaky clean." "(CHUCKLES) Yeah, come on." "(LOUD CLINKING)" "My dear, what's wrong?" "I don't know." "Serge says nothing's gone right for him since he moved in here." "Maybe we should have gone to live with Princess Marie." "I hate to see you unhappy." "I'm trying my best." "I don't know what more I can do." "(BAND PLAYING DIXIELAND MUSIC IN THE DISTANCE)" "Where is Victor?" "Out." "You can wait for him at the bar." " Thanks." " You do know we're lovers?" "(SCOFFS QUIETLY)" "You thought you were the only one, didn't you?" "(SCOFFS) Look, I can tell that he likes you." "And it must be exciting, having a Selfridge girl running around after him." "But I was here first, and we're not finished." "Well, that's a shame." "Because neither am I." "(BAND PLAYING DIXIELAND MUSIC IN THE DISTANCE)" "You didn't tell me about Elsa." " What about her?" " You're sleeping together." " It's just a bit of fun." " It's me or her." "It's been a pleasure to meet you again, Nancy." " I hope we see you more often." " Oh." " Well, good night." " Oh, good night." "Let me know when we can get underway." "Oh, a matter of days." "Like I said, just bureaucracy." " (CHUCKLES) Good night." " Good night." "Is there a problem with the Selfridge estate?" "No, Ma." "Everything's fine." "Harry." "You can kid a lot of people, but you can't kid me." "No one will lend me money." "What?" "The British are punishing me for being reckless, for which they really mean American." "Loxley made me pay twice what the land is worth." "They're not happy, they won't lend me any more." "Isn't it about time you put this Loxley feud behind you?" "No, it's not about him." "What is it about then?" "Why are you so desperate to build these houses?" "Rose built houses like that in Chicago." "I want to leave her mark on this world." "The only legacy Rose cared about was her children." "And you have Selfridges." "What if I want to be remembered for being more than just a shopkeeper?" "If you didn't want to be remembered for that, you shouldn't have opened a store." "These are difficult times." "(SCOFFS) Is it wrong to want to do something good?" "(SIGHS)" "Is there anything I can do?" "No." "No, it's my problem." "I..." "I will solve it." "Hmm." "Come to Paris with me." " What?" " You have half an hour to pack a case." "(SIGHS)" "What is this?" "Why the sudden change of heart?" "We've barely spoken for days, and now this?" "(SHUSHING)" " I never know what you want from me." " Hmm?" "(LAUGHING) Serge." "Serge, stop!" "You cannot put that in Selfridges' window." "We'd be closed down." "There..." "There would be a riot!" "It may very well be against the law." "But you agreed." "I didn't know what you meant." "I just went along with you because I... (DEEP BREATH) I didn't want to look foolish." "And yet you have succeeded." "Magnificently." " Well, that's not fair." " I apologise for my mistake." "But that cannot go in the window." "The... (SCOFFS)" "This one is not for the window." " The window is already finished." " What?" "Uh..." " Are items like this on display?" " Just like we agreed." "(SIGHS)" "Good Lord." "I must insist you remove them!" "When you hired me, you said you wanted me to help you make your mark." "This will begin a revolution." "Unfortunately, one in which I will be put against the wall and shot." "(DEEP SIGHING)" "Well." "I hope you enjoyed your flight." "I did." "A lot more than I thought I would, actually." "You should smile more often." "It suits you." "(CHUCKLES)" "So, you'll fly with me again?" "You know, I might just do that." "Then I insist you join me for dinner." "Or perhaps just a drink?" "Tomorrow evening?" "Good, I know just the place." "Well." "Mademoiselle." "It was a pleasure." "See you then." "I just thought you should know, so that you can be prepared." "I very much appreciate the advance warning." "Who was with Loxley?" "Mr Barrett and Mr Lowe." "I remember them from the Palm Court." "There was talk about getting other board members involved." "Well, so Loxley's got two in his pocket, three to go." "(SIGHS)" "So, how's the club coming along?" "Just reopened as a private members club." "Ah, it's early days." "A little slow." "You should come along, see for yourself." "Indulge in a little gaming." "All above board, on credit." "No, I haven't gambled in a long time." "I'm afraid I mightn't stop once I got started." "Well, I'll let you know if something special comes up." "I will spread the word about your club." "I know a lot of people who would like that sort of thing." " Thank you, Victor." " Thank you, Harry." "The boat's called The Miranda." "It leaves Liverpool to New York on Friday evening." "Right." "And this should be enough for a down payment on an apartment." "I'll wire more when I can." "Ah, Gus." "I need you to do one last thing for me." "Harry wants you to come to the store tomorrow." " I don't want to see him." " If you don't come, he'll ask questions." " (KNOCKING ON DOOR)" " SELFRIDGE:" "Nancy?" "Oh, how lovely." " (KISSING)" " NANCY:" "Oh, thank you." "(NANCY GIGGLES)" "Wonderful news about the government funding, sir." " Ah, thank you very much." " We've all waited long enough for it." " Ah." " I was just telling Mr Gerrard that you'd like to see him at the store tomorrow." " My head of press wants to meet you." " Happy to be of service." "Then I'll be out of town." "Manchester." "A new job." " Oh, I was hoping you could..." " I'll always be at the end of a telephone." "Well, I look forward to seeing both of you tomorrow." "Yeah, uh..." "Don't worry, I'll show myself out." "NANCY:" "Oh. (CHUCKLES)" "NANCY:" "Um... (CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)" "I still don't like the idea of him leaving town." "Forget Mr Gerrard." "This is our project." "It's yours." "And mine." "I'm not going back with Violette." "I don't love her." "I never did." "I was dazzled by her, but..." "It wouldn't survive a month." "Finally." "He's figured it out." "I'm all eyes on the club now." "Nothing else." "We're going to make this the biggest, the best..." "We?" "You've been there for me, Elsa." "All the way." "And I appreciate that." "So, cut me in." "Make me a partner." "What?" "And if tonight goes well, I want 15% of the takings." "(SCOFFS) Fifteen?" "(CHUCKLES)" "Bloody hell!" "(SCOFFS)" "You can't do this without me." "And you know it." "(BOTH CHUCKLING)" "I'm going to have my supper now." "Go home." " Not until we part as friends." " (SIGHS)" "Ripped By mstoll"
