0:00:00 > 0:00:03- And you are?- Ida Battersea. New kitchen maid.

0:00:03 > 0:00:05Don't cross Matron.

0:00:05 > 0:00:07And never fraternise with the foundlings.

0:00:07 > 0:00:09A well-run hospital is both my duty and my pleasure.

0:00:09 > 0:00:13- If Matron was to hear about this... - Hear about what?

0:00:13 > 0:00:17- We didn't take anything from the girls.- You know us.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20- We're always innocent.- If they get in trouble, we all do.

0:00:20 > 0:00:24Any other misdemeanours today, Feather will be dealt with firmly.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Then at once...

0:00:37 > 0:00:39THEY KNOCK SEVEN TIMES

0:00:39 > 0:00:41..the hospital ghost appears.

0:00:43 > 0:00:47Joseph Twig, the ghostly foundling boy.

0:00:47 > 0:00:48Boo!

0:00:48 > 0:00:52THEY LAUGH

0:00:54 > 0:00:58'Every foundling had a past life, a family they never knew.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04'Who was my mother? Where is she now, and who am I?

0:01:05 > 0:01:06'These questions haunted me.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11'But I would never stop looking for the answers.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14'For all of us foundlings, there was a real past,

0:01:14 > 0:01:17'but whenever I reached out to touch it, it disappeared.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20'Just like a ghost.'

0:01:51 > 0:01:55THUNDER CRASHES

0:01:55 > 0:01:56When will it stop?

0:01:57 > 0:02:00- When it passes over. - That could be all night.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03I know, I'll tell you a story.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06- Oh, not again.- Boring.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09A soppy story all about your squirrel tree.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11That will get us to sleep.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13Why don't I tell you a scary story, then?

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Like you could scare me.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18I'd like to see her try.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22THUNDER CRASHES

0:02:24 > 0:02:26It was a dark and stormy night...

0:02:27 > 0:02:31..when the lady of the house heard footsteps.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33She opened the scullery door...

0:02:34 > 0:02:36..and she saw her...

0:02:39 > 0:02:43..the ghost of Flora, the lonely kitchen maid.

0:02:45 > 0:02:48- It was her footsteps.- Ghoulish.

0:02:48 > 0:02:49Walking around in the night,

0:02:49 > 0:02:51just like we hear in the tower.

0:02:52 > 0:02:56THUNDER CRASHES

0:02:56 > 0:03:00- You hear footsteps in the tower? - And tapping at the walls.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02Shadows on the floor?

0:03:04 > 0:03:06You mean your stupid tower's haunted?

0:03:06 > 0:03:11- By the ghostly foundling boy. - Everyone knows about Joseph Twig.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13That's probably where he died.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16And you know what they say?

0:03:19 > 0:03:22When his ghost is around,

0:03:22 > 0:03:24you feel a cool breeze

0:03:24 > 0:03:28and his bony fingers touching your hair.

0:03:28 > 0:03:33THUNDER CRASHES, THEY SCREAM

0:03:33 > 0:03:35DOOR OPENS

0:03:37 > 0:03:38Sheila Ormsby.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41What a surprise.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43It was Hetty, Nurse.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46She was scaring us with stories of Joseph Twig.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49- The ghost boy who haunts the hospital.- Huh!

0:03:49 > 0:03:51Do you think I was born yesterday?

0:03:53 > 0:03:54Tomorrow -

0:03:54 > 0:03:57hard chores instead of embroidery.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59Oh, and, um,

0:03:59 > 0:04:02no more sneaking about after dark.

0:04:02 > 0:04:06Otherwise, the ghostly foundling boy will come.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09And he will torment you.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11THUNDER ROLLS

0:04:13 > 0:04:15SHE LAUGHS

0:04:20 > 0:04:22Please follow me.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25We are grateful for your time, Matron.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27Our pleasure, Mr McCartney, Mrs McCartney.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30A friend came to visit on Admissions Day

0:04:30 > 0:04:32and she told us every detail.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35But we wanted to see for ourselves.

0:04:35 > 0:04:40As one of the wealthiest brokers in the capital, I'm almost embarrassed

0:04:40 > 0:04:43not to have been involved with such a worthy cause before.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46New patrons are always very welcome.

0:04:46 > 0:04:50So where would you like to start? The boys in lessons?

0:04:50 > 0:04:55Let's start with the young ladies. I've brought treats.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Foundling girls are this way.

0:04:58 > 0:05:01We like to keep our children busy.

0:05:01 > 0:05:05Hard work and education are the cornerstones of the hospital.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07They brought treats.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09White sheep, white sheep

0:05:09 > 0:05:11On a blue hill

0:05:11 > 0:05:14When the wind stops, you all stand still

0:05:14 > 0:05:15SOMEONE SNORES

0:05:15 > 0:05:19When the wind blows, you walk away slow

0:05:19 > 0:05:22White sheep, white sheep, where do you go?

0:05:22 > 0:05:24THE TEACHER SNORES

0:05:30 > 0:05:31Nurse Macclesfield?

0:05:31 > 0:05:34Ah! Joseph Twig, stay away from me!

0:05:34 > 0:05:36- THEY LAUGH - Twig?

0:05:36 > 0:05:39Isn't he the ghost that haunts the hospital?

0:05:40 > 0:05:43Ghost indeed.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46- Who believes in them, eh? - SHE LAUGHS

0:05:46 > 0:05:49Are you featherbrained or something?

0:05:49 > 0:05:51Me?

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Get to the corner for the rest of the class.

0:05:55 > 0:05:56No way.

0:05:56 > 0:06:00- What did he do to deserve that? - It suits you, Mathias.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03Yeah, you should wear a dunce's hat all the time.

0:06:03 > 0:06:04Quiet, you boys.

0:06:04 > 0:06:09Mr and Mrs McCartney, here are our senior foundlings.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11All our girls are taught to embroider.

0:06:11 > 0:06:15- Such pretty work.- Almost fine enough for Bond Street.

0:06:15 > 0:06:16Thank you, my lady.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24Pleasure to meet you, my lady.

0:06:25 > 0:06:29Perhaps your guests would like a handkerchief?

0:06:29 > 0:06:32- As a souvenir of their visit.- May I?

0:06:32 > 0:06:34With our compliments, Mrs McCartney.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38What a sweet girl.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41Yes, always so charming.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46Thank you so much, my lady.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48Oh, my.

0:06:49 > 0:06:50It is the child.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Mrs McCartney, whatever is the matter?

0:06:54 > 0:06:55I...I think she needs some air.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58- I'll go and get Cranbourne with the smelling salts.- Yes.

0:07:03 > 0:07:08Last year, we lost our only child.

0:07:08 > 0:07:09Lucy.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13Our friend who visited

0:07:13 > 0:07:17said the girl looked so like her, we should see for ourselves.

0:07:17 > 0:07:20- And she does. So very much. - Same hair.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Same beautiful eyes.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26Dear me, what a dreadful shock.

0:07:28 > 0:07:32If there would be any comfort in it, you're more then welcome to come

0:07:32 > 0:07:33and see Polly.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36We allow visitors to watch them dine each Sunday.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39There's a small charge for entry.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41That's not why we're here.

0:07:41 > 0:07:44We do not wish to merely see the child.

0:07:44 > 0:07:45We want to adopt her.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50Oh, I'm afraid that's not possible.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56There's always a chance, however slim,

0:07:56 > 0:07:59that a foundling may be claimed by their real mother.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02No, adoption is against hospital rules.

0:08:02 > 0:08:03But we'd give her a good life.

0:08:03 > 0:08:07The girl would have every extravagance. A prosperous future.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09- I am quite set.- And in return,

0:08:09 > 0:08:12we are prepared to make a most generous donation.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16For my wife's happiness, Matron.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18You name the price.

0:08:21 > 0:08:22Well...

0:08:24 > 0:08:26I see, erm...

0:08:27 > 0:08:28..however...

0:08:28 > 0:08:30What Matron is trying to say...

0:08:31 > 0:08:35Even with the donation, adoption is not possible.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Colonel Brigwell would say the same.

0:08:41 > 0:08:42Well...

0:08:43 > 0:08:46..perhaps, then, it's the Colonel

0:08:46 > 0:08:47we need to speak to.

0:08:51 > 0:08:52Shall we, my dear?

0:08:56 > 0:09:00- SHE SIGHS - Brigwell will tell them the rules.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02- He is the rules.- Indeed.

0:09:07 > 0:09:08Dunce.

0:09:10 > 0:09:14- He believes in ghosties. - That's how daft he is.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17- His knees would be knocking if he saw a spook.- What?

0:09:17 > 0:09:19- And yours wouldn't?- Never.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24Let's show them a real spook.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27- Our very own ghostly foundling boy. - Then well see who's scared.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29- And stupid.- Good idea.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Let's talk at the end of the lesson.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Ghosts need to look the part.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38- Colonel.- Ah, Matron.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40The McCartneys have explained their situation,

0:09:40 > 0:09:44and in this instance, I think we should grant their request.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46You're giving permission to adopt?

0:09:46 > 0:09:48The child will have a most wonderful future.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50And as for the donation...

0:09:50 > 0:09:51We can afford to be...

0:09:52 > 0:09:54- ..helpful.- I see.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56A wonderful outcome all round.

0:09:56 > 0:10:00I do appreciate your fastidiousness, Matron, but adoption in this

0:10:00 > 0:10:04case is for the greater good of the child...and the hospital.

0:10:04 > 0:10:05Of course, Colonel Brigwell.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08Cranbourne, tell them to hold the carriage.

0:10:08 > 0:10:09We have much to discuss.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24What was that all about?

0:10:24 > 0:10:26Them toffs want to adopt someone to become a rich girl.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31Whatever I did to cause such a dizzy spell, my lady,

0:10:31 > 0:10:33it wasn't my intention.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Please accept my sincere apologies.

0:10:35 > 0:10:39Polly has always been such a good girl.

0:10:39 > 0:10:40Thank you, dear child.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43But that is not the nature of this meeting.

0:10:46 > 0:10:47Lemon biscuit?

0:10:49 > 0:10:50You may.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56Our cook used to make them for our daughter, you see.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58Lucy's favourite.

0:10:58 > 0:11:00We rather hope you'll like them too.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Thank you.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05May I share it with my friends?

0:11:05 > 0:11:08- Of course you may.- Now...

0:11:10 > 0:11:11Polly...

0:11:11 > 0:11:13The McCartneys have some news.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20- Polly.- What happened?

0:11:23 > 0:11:26The McCartneys, they want to adopt me.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29They want to what?

0:11:31 > 0:11:34- Matron.- Your friend is leaving us. - Forever?

0:11:36 > 0:11:38Polly will depart for her new home tomorrow.

0:11:39 > 0:11:43She has a privileged life ahead of her. Unlike some.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48Polly, this can't be happening. BELL RINGS

0:11:48 > 0:11:50Off to your lunch now.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00What now?

0:12:00 > 0:12:03Tell Cranbourne me and Ned volunteer to clean the writing slates.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06- He knows Nurse Mac gets them done every week.- Got it.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08We'll cover, but be quick.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15Ned, follow me.

0:12:22 > 0:12:24You have to tell them you don't want to leave.

0:12:24 > 0:12:28How can I? They're so kind.

0:12:28 > 0:12:31Mrs McCartney even brought lemon biscuits for me.

0:12:31 > 0:12:33She sounds lovely.

0:12:33 > 0:12:37She might sound lovely today, but what about when you get to know her?

0:12:38 > 0:12:42- You might hate her. She might hate you.- Hetty!

0:12:42 > 0:12:45I mean, you don't even like the biscuits they gave you.

0:12:45 > 0:12:51- I didn't get the chance. Save that for us to share.- Oh, sorry.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54They said I'd have my own bedroom and a governess.

0:12:54 > 0:12:58- That has to be better than being a foundling.- What?

0:12:58 > 0:13:02- Leaving to become a dead girl? I don't think so.- Hetty.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05- This isn't about you. - No, it's about Polly.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08The first friend I ever made here.

0:13:10 > 0:13:14You're sweet, but this Lucy might have been like Sheila.

0:13:17 > 0:13:20And besides, I'd miss you.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23- Me too.- And me.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25You're the only friends I've ever known,

0:13:25 > 0:13:27but there's nothing we can do.

0:13:27 > 0:13:31Isn't there? Just you leave it to me.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36The last kitchen maid, I caught her pinching a piecrust.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39- Never?- She didn't last long after that.

0:13:44 > 0:13:47Straight back to it, Ida. Dining tables need a polish.

0:13:50 > 0:13:51Let's go.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58Finish up, girls.

0:13:58 > 0:14:02Matron shall be checking all arithmetic this week.

0:14:02 > 0:14:03And woe betide anyone who...

0:14:05 > 0:14:08Polly! You haven't even started.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10It's boring.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12Boring? I'll give you boring, you little...

0:14:12 > 0:14:15Polly's been out of sorts.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17It's the McCartneys, Nurse.

0:14:17 > 0:14:18Oh, those.

0:14:19 > 0:14:23Well, in that case, take her outside for a breath of fresh air

0:14:23 > 0:14:25and then straight back to class.

0:14:25 > 0:14:26Both of you.

0:14:33 > 0:14:37Um, we've finished, Nurse.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39Shall I deliver this week's arithmetic to Matron?

0:14:39 > 0:14:42Yes. Take Elizabeth to help.

0:14:45 > 0:14:49They'll only want good girls for their daughters, that's for sure.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56Aye, someone's in a rush?

0:14:56 > 0:14:57Matron sent us.

0:14:57 > 0:15:02We need more sugar for the visitors' tea.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04Not for us, of course.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07- Sweet enough.- Help them fetch it will you, Ida?

0:15:07 > 0:15:11My bunions won't cope with much more traipsing. Be quick about it.

0:15:11 > 0:15:12Yes, Cook, be right with you.

0:15:15 > 0:15:19New kitchen maid. This should be easy.

0:15:19 > 0:15:23Right, a china bowl and some fine linen.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26We're in a rush. Polly, sugar from the pantry.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28You always are.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30- I met you, didn't I?- Think so.

0:15:30 > 0:15:31Couldn't forget that hair.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34I've not seen another foundling with hair like that.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37MOUTHS: Go! Quick!

0:15:37 > 0:15:41- Unique. That's me.- Oh, isn't that nice to know?

0:15:43 > 0:15:46- Hetty? That's your name, isn't it? - That's right.

0:15:46 > 0:15:50Now, leave the rest to us. You wouldn't want to be late for Cook.

0:15:50 > 0:15:51Thanks, Hetty.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58Phew. She can talk.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03- What are you doing here?- Could say the same for you.- Tough.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05- That's what we came for.- No way.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07This mission's a matter of pride.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10Tonight we're spooking Vince and Judd.

0:16:10 > 0:16:12We'll show them who's scared of ghosts.

0:16:12 > 0:16:13That's not pride.

0:16:13 > 0:16:14That's a prank.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17For Polly, this is a matter of life and death.

0:16:17 > 0:16:18- Almost literally.- What?

0:16:18 > 0:16:22She's being adopted to become a dead girl. And we have to stop it.

0:16:22 > 0:16:26- We?- I need the flour first.

0:16:26 > 0:16:30Then we meet up later to scare Vince. He's always got it coming.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Good idea.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35Before that, we all help Polly.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37I only came back for a tray.

0:16:38 > 0:16:41If you're up to no good, I'll need to tell Cook.

0:16:48 > 0:16:49Didn't Cook tell you?

0:16:49 > 0:16:53Foundlings aren't allowed to be left unsupervised in the kitchen.

0:16:53 > 0:16:56If you snitch, you're in lumber.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59Well, I never!

0:17:00 > 0:17:03KNOCKS ON DOOR

0:17:03 > 0:17:08- Excuse me, Matron, this week's arithmetic.- Thank you, girls.

0:17:08 > 0:17:12- Nice to meet you. I'm Sheila, by the way.- Elizabeth.

0:17:12 > 0:17:16Perhaps you'd like me to pour you some more tea?

0:17:16 > 0:17:20- Um, well, there really is no need.- That would be lovely.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32If this doesn't work, you're going to have to tell them

0:17:32 > 0:17:34that you don't want to leave.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36You don't want to be adopted.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57Looking like that, no-one would have you.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01Thank you for the tea.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04And remember, the name's Sheila.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07- Sheila Ormsby.- Now, girls.

0:18:07 > 0:18:09We have matters to discuss.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12I'm certain I wasn't meant to be a foundling.

0:18:12 > 0:18:16I was destined for the finer things in life.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18How are you today, my lady?

0:18:18 > 0:18:20Sheila.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22I would make you such a wonderful daughter.

0:18:22 > 0:18:26I have no idea where she got such information.

0:18:26 > 0:18:29They want to adopt someone. I heard them.

0:18:29 > 0:18:32Yes, but not just anyone.

0:18:32 > 0:18:33Polly, she's been taken ill.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36- Come quick, Matron. - I'll be back in a minute.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38- The child.- Polly?

0:18:38 > 0:18:40I'm sure there's nothing for you to be concerned about.

0:18:43 > 0:18:47- What's happened, Feather? - One minute she was fine.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50The next, she ate some biscuit and she came out in a rash,

0:18:50 > 0:18:52and then she collapsed.

0:18:52 > 0:18:55Please, I need the infirmary.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59Just like when she got stung by a bee. All red and itchy.

0:18:59 > 0:19:03I could never eat another lemon biscuit again.

0:19:03 > 0:19:06- She's not right for them, Matron. - Hm.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08Foundlings, back to your classrooms.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10Now!

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Lemon biscuit, you say?

0:19:15 > 0:19:16Yes, Matron.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19Odd.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21Because I smell the distinct scent of...

0:19:21 > 0:19:24SHE SNIFFS

0:19:24 > 0:19:25..raspberry.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34Well?

0:19:35 > 0:19:37Matron, she's my friend.

0:19:37 > 0:19:38You can't just send her away.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41I'm afraid it's all been agreed.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Polly has a future anyone would yearn for.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45Come on, let's get you cleaned up.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47- Polly!- No, Matron, please!

0:19:55 > 0:19:56Just as I thought.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00The excitement proved all too much.

0:20:00 > 0:20:02Oh, that is good news.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04Well, what do you say, Polly?

0:20:07 > 0:20:11We just want to love you, like real parents would.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15- We'd do anything to make you happy. - Anything at all.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24- Polly.- Well?

0:20:25 > 0:20:26It's not what you think.

0:20:26 > 0:20:29The McCartneys want to adopt me so I can have a good life.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32- You said yes? - It's for the best, Hetty.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35And they promised I can still be your friend too.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38- I can write and I can visit. - That's wonderful.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41I can even bring you gifts.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43They're just trying to buy your love.

0:20:43 > 0:20:44What if they are?

0:20:44 > 0:20:47She'll be Polly McCartney with no hard chores any more.

0:20:47 > 0:20:51I'd still be me. And once I'm on the outside, I can help you.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54If you don't get a letter back from your borrowed family,

0:20:54 > 0:20:55I could help.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58- Help me find my mother?- I'd be free.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01I can find out things. Tell you when I visit.

0:21:02 > 0:21:06I want you to be happy, Polly. That's all that matters.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08- I'll still miss you.- Me too.

0:21:11 > 0:21:13Poor Hetty, losing her friend.

0:21:13 > 0:21:15Couldn't have happened to a nicer girl.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18BELL RINGS

0:21:18 > 0:21:21Break's over, girls! Back to your dorms. Go on.

0:21:22 > 0:21:26Forget the she-mob. Hang a yellow duster in the girls' dorm window.

0:21:26 > 0:21:29- Signal to the boys. - Tonight's Polly's last night.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32Time to have some fun. THEY GIGGLE

0:21:35 > 0:21:37Oi. Where are you going?

0:21:37 > 0:21:40Ghost hunting. On the lookout for Joseph Twig.

0:21:41 > 0:21:45- Come if you like. - If you're brave enough.- Us?

0:21:46 > 0:21:49We're not stupid.

0:21:49 > 0:21:50I don't believe in ghosts.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52Nothing to be scared of then, is there?

0:22:08 > 0:22:11A DOOR CREAKS

0:22:11 > 0:22:14FOOTSTEPS

0:22:46 > 0:22:49- THREE KNOCKS - What was that?

0:22:49 > 0:22:53It's him. The ghostly foundling boy.

0:22:53 > 0:22:57Didn't you know? He always knocks three times before he appears.

0:22:57 > 0:23:00Yeah, likely story.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22- HE SCREAMS - Joseph Twig! Run!

0:23:22 > 0:23:24- Get out!- Go!

0:23:24 > 0:23:26THEY SCREAM

0:23:26 > 0:23:27Now who are the dunces?

0:23:27 > 0:23:30- Like we didn't already know. - Did you see all their faces?

0:23:30 > 0:23:31They fell for it.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35The trick with the flour worked brilliantly.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37Thanks for your help, girls.

0:23:37 > 0:23:41- Polly, we'll never forget it, or you.- They screamed so loud. Argh!

0:23:41 > 0:23:44They're never going to call me a dunce again.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47- This is the best last night ever. - We'll always be friends.

0:23:47 > 0:23:48Always.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01Promise you'll never forget me?

0:24:01 > 0:24:04Hetty Feather, how could I?

0:24:04 > 0:24:05Come on.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Here she is.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13- So pretty.- All set, Polly?

0:24:17 > 0:24:19A happy ending indeed.

0:24:30 > 0:24:34Who knows? In a few years, Matron may have to curtsey to you.

0:24:34 > 0:24:37- SHE LAUGHS WRYLY - Best wishes, Polly.

0:24:37 > 0:24:38Thank you, Matron.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42Bye, Hetty.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45Not bye, just see you soon.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Your carriage awaits.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Take care. I'll write soon.

0:25:01 > 0:25:04- I can write to Polly, can't I, Matron?- Oh, yes, yes.

0:25:04 > 0:25:07I have the McCartneys' address right here.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16Mrs McCartney, when will we come back to visit?

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Dear child. This is your new life now.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49Well, Feather, what are you waiting for?

0:25:53 > 0:25:55Polly's address, Matron.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57- May I write to her today?- Hm.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03MATRON GIGGLES

0:26:04 > 0:26:06But you said. They promised her!

0:26:06 > 0:26:08Do you think I'm a fool?

0:26:08 > 0:26:10You can't play me, Feather.

0:26:10 > 0:26:12I always win.

0:26:12 > 0:26:14You lied to me.

0:26:14 > 0:26:15Call it a lesson.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18Learn it now, or you'll be sorry.

0:26:21 > 0:26:22I am watching you.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32Who's scared now, Feather?

0:26:37 > 0:26:41'I'd lost my best friend and my battle with Matron went on.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44'But if she ever thought she'd win, she was wrong.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47'Like Polly, you can change your name,

0:26:47 > 0:26:49'but you can't change the person inside.

0:26:55 > 0:26:59'But until I found my mother, I didn't really know who I was inside.

0:27:01 > 0:27:03'One day, I'd find the answers to all of my questions,

0:27:03 > 0:27:04'and I'd find her.

0:27:06 > 0:27:10'Then I wouldn't be the ghost of who I was any more. I'd be real.

0:27:10 > 0:27:12'I'd be me.'

0:27:16 > 0:27:20Jem's coming today, and he said, "Meet me by the gates at noon."

0:27:20 > 0:27:22It looks like my brother, Jem.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24Your uncle is the Earl?

0:27:24 > 0:27:25Of Wellesley, yes.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28Hetty's my family. If you want jam, ask your own sister.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31I pray that the matter of your family inheritance

0:27:31 > 0:27:32is soon resolved.

0:27:32 > 0:27:34You kept your secrets from me.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36Now you don't have any secrets any more.

0:27:36 > 0:27:40He wants us to steal from the kitchen.

0:27:40 > 0:27:41My letters from Jem.

0:27:41 > 0:27:42What have you done with them?

0:27:42 > 0:27:46Tell Hetty she can have it back when she brings us what we need.
