-
I came as soon as I got your message.
-
I hope I didn't drag you away from anything important.
-
Oh, no, I've finished for the day.
-
At Bakewell's?
-
I am in a predicament.
-
James, the first footman, has sprained his wrist and cannot carry.
-
Mr Barrow feels the duties are beneath him,
-
and in the meantime, we have a party of 16 staying at the house.
-
You want me to be a footman?
-
I know it is far below your talents
-
but you do understand the duties
-
and since you are working at Bakewell's...
