Episode 2
I'm well aware that in your eyes at least, I'm not a gentleman. But I think I deserve to know why I am offensive.
Episode 2
It offends me that you should speak to me as if it were your duty to rescue my reputation!
Episode 2
I spoke to you about my feelings because I love you! I have no thought of your reputation!
Episode 2

[walks over to her] I don't want to possess you! I wish to marry you because I love you!
Episode 2
Well, you shouldn't! Because I do not like you, and never have.

Episode 2
My friend, Bessy Higgins... is dying.
Episode 2

Episode 2

Episode 2
No! No, no, of course not. I--I'm sorry to be so blunt. I've not learned yet how--how to refuse. Or how to respond when a man talks
Episode 2
Oh, there are others? This happens to you every day? Of course. You must have to disappoint so many men that offer you their heart. [about to turn and leave]

Please, understand, Mr. Thornton--
