Charles Godwin:
[At night in the schoolroom]
Louisa tells me you have a story about firelight.
Elisabeth:
Yes. I tell her Firelight is a magic time, when times stands still.
Charles Godwin:
Why'd you tell her that?
Elisabeth:
I find it helps. A time with no rules at the end of the day.
[She walks over to the fire and kneels to pick up two cards Louisa left on the floor earlier]
Charles Godwin:
I must ask you to help me.
Elisabeth:
How?
Charles Godwin:
There was a time - there was a short time, when we were close you and I.
Elisabeth:
Yes?
Charles Godwin:
Do you remember it?
Elisabeth:
Yes.
Charles Godwin:
Just tell me that time is over and can never com again.
[Elisabeth says nothing]
Charles Godwin:
You don't answer. What happens when time stands still?
Elisabeth:
In the firelight, you can do what you want. Say what you want. Be what you want.
[She rises]
Elisabeth:
And the lamps are lit again, time starts again, and everything you said or did is forgotten. More than forgotten. It never happened.
Elisabeth, Charles Godwin:
[They kiss]
[Cut to: Charles and Elisabeth passionately making love]
