Episode Transcript

(00:01):
Chapter six. When Hindley went tohis father' s funeral. He brought
a woman with him, which amazesall the neighbors. He never told us
who his wife was or where shewas born. He was to lack fortune
and a distinguished name, because Hindleyhad announced his marriage to his father.
Otherwise, the recent arrival did notcause much discomfort at home. She was

(00:25):
enchanted as soon as she saw itthere, except for the damaging. When
I buried her as I was prayingduring the ceremony, I thought she was
half dumb. She made me accompanyher to her room, even though I
had to dress the children and sattrembling and clenching her fists. He was
just repeating that they have already leftand began to explain as a hysterical the

(00:47):
effect that caused him so much mourning. Seeing her shudder and cry, I
asked her what was wrong with herand she replied that she was afraid to
die. It seemed to me thatshe was as express as dying as I
was thin, but she had fresh, youthful skin and her eyes shone with
two diamonds. I noticed, however, that any unexpected noise startled her and
coughed from time to time, butI did not know what such symptoms predicted

(01:11):
and did not feel any sympathy forher. In this land we sympathized little
with those who come from outside,unless they show us sympathy. First,
Hindley looked like someone else was thinnerand paler and dressed and spoke in a
very different way. The same dayhe arrived, Joseph and I told him

(01:32):
that we should limit ourselves to thekitchen, leaving him the living room for
exclusive use. At first he thoughtto accommodate an interior room for a salon,
wallpapering it and conditioning it, butso much did his wife like the
living room with its white floor,its huge fireplace its sideboard and its dishes,

(01:53):
and so satisfied it with the reliefthat was enjoyed there that he preferred
to use that room as a cabinet. First days, Hilley' s wife
was pleased to see her sister-in- law. He walked around the
house with her, played together,kissed her and gave her gifts, but
soon she got tired and, asher signs of affection diminished, Hindley became

(02:14):
more despotic. Any word of hiswife that indicated disaffection made Heathcliff awaken in
him his former childish hatreds, madeHim stomp in the company of the servants
and commanded him to apply to thesame agricultural labors as the other young men.
At first, Heathcliff tolerated quite resignedlyhis new cataline state. He taught

(02:38):
her what she learned, worked inthe field with him and played together.
The two were growing in complete abandonmentand the young Master was not worried at
all about what they were doing,as long as they did not interfere with
him. He didn' t evensee to it that they went to church
on Sundays every time the boys escapedand Joseph or the Cure censored his carelessness

(02:59):
and told them to beat Heathcliff andpunish him without eating Catherine. They knew
no better fun than to escape tothe swamps and when they were punished for
doing so, they took it toRisa. Even if the priest would mark
Catherine, how many chapters she wantedto learn by heart. And even if

(03:20):
Joseph hit Heathcliff until his arm hurt, the boys forgot everything. As soon
as they were back together. Icried more than once alone, watching them
become naughty every day, but Idared not tell them anything for fear of
losing the little influence I still hadon the poor creatures. One Sunday afternoon
they were forced out of the livingroom because of some mischief they had committed

(03:46):
and when I went to find themI did not find them. We searched
the house, the courtyard and thestable without finding any trace of them.
Finally, Hindley, indignant, hadthe door locked and forbade anyone from opening
them if they returned at night.They all lay down, except I stayed
at the window, though it rainedin order to open them if they arrived.
Despite the master' s ban,I didn' t take long.

(04:09):
He did not hear footsteps and sawa light shining on the other side of
the gate. I put a handkerchiefon my head and rushed out so they
wouldn' t call and wake upMr The newcomer was Heathcliff and my heart
jumped when I saw him Only wherethe Miss is. I screamed impatiently.
I hope nothing happened to him.He' s at the tordos farm.

(04:31):
He replied and there I would betoo if he had intended to tell me
to stay good. I told him, you' ll pay for the consequences.
You won' t stop until Ikick you out of the house what
you had to do at the tordosfarm. Let me change my clothes and
I' ll tell you. Helenarecommended that I try not to wake Hindley

(04:55):
and while I was waiting for herto undress to turn off the candle,
Catherine and I left the laundry roomthinking about taking a few laps to our
liking. Then we saw the lightsof the farm and we thought to go
and see if the children of theLintons spent Sundays hidden in the corners and
trembling while their parents eat they laughand burn their eyelashes next to the light.

(05:17):
You think they do. So eitherthe servant tells them sermons, teaches
them catechism and commands them to takeup memory or a list of names of
sacred writing. If they don't answer properly, I don' t
think so. I answered because they' re good children and they don'
t deserve the treatment you get.For how badly you behaved bah Bah replied.

(05:42):
We ran from the peaks to thepark without stopping. Catalina came here
because she was going barefoot. You' ll have to find her shoes tomorrow.
In the hedge we tempt up thepath and climb into a pot under
the window of the living room.They had not closed the woods, the
curtains were alone two half cast anda splendid light came out through the crystals.

(06:03):
We stood up and fastened to thefront of the window. We saw
a magnificent room with a crimson carpet. The ceiling was white as snow,
had a golden ore and hung fromit a torrent of crystal drops suspended from
a silver chain and shining with thelight of many small candles. The old

(06:26):
Lintons were not there and Edward andhis sister had all that room for them,
as they would not be happy.It would have seemed to us to
be in glory. And now let' s see if you can guess what
those good kids do you say.Isabel, who seems to me to be
eleven years old, one less thanCatalina, was in a corner screaming as

(06:48):
if the witches pricked her with hotpins. Eduardo was standing by the chimney
crying in silence and on the tablewe saw a puppy who had almost split
in two when he fought for him, as we understood, for the reproaches
that were going to each other andfor the complaints of the animal. Some
fools were fighting over a lot oflukewarm hair and at that moment they were

(07:13):
crying because after sticking to catch it, neither of them wanted it anymore.
We were laughing to death. Seeingthat, when you' ve seen me
want what Catherine wants, have youever seen us squeal, cry and wallow
each other at one end of theliving room when we' re alone?
I wouldn' t change Eduardo Linton' s life on the tordos farm for

(07:33):
which I' m doing it here, even if it gave me the satisfaction
of being able to throw Jose fromthe top of the roof and paint the
walls of the house with Hindley's blood shut up, shut up,
I interrupted her and how she stayedthere. Catherine, as I told you,
we laughed the lintons were not heardand rushed to the door as fast

(07:55):
as arrows. There was a lotof silence and then they yelled Mom,
come ay ay ay. I thinkit was something like that they were screaming.
Then we made a terrible noise toscare them even more and then we
let go of the window and startedrunning because we heard someone was trying to
open it. I took Catherine bythe hand and told her to hurry.

(08:16):
When he suddenly fell to the groundHeathcliff ran he told me they released the
dog and he grabbed me. Theanimal had grabbed by the ankle. I
heard him growl. Catherine didn't scream. He had found it despicable
to shout, even if he hadseen himself among the horns of a uravian
bull, but I did scream,I threw so many curses that I opened

(08:39):
up enough with them to frighten allthe devils from hell. Then he took
a stone and put it in theanimal' s mouth, trying furiously to
put it in his throat. Ananimal came out of the servant with a
bluff and shouted loudly. Spy strongsubject, but when he saw what situation
he was in, the dog changedhis tone. The animal had a palm

(09:00):
of tongue outside the leaf and blubberedfrom the snout. The man took Catherine,
who was half vanished, not afraid, but distasteful, and took her
away followed by me, who wouldprofess all manner of insults and threats to
avenge me whom you have captured.Roberto asked Linton, from the door the
dog has taken a girl. Sir, the servant has returned, and here

(09:24):
too is a rapacious man who seemsto me to have no waste. He
added,“ Subjecting me, thethieves surely intended to bring them in through
the window so that they would openthe door when we were asleep and be
able to murder them. Be quiet, you cursed tongue, you thief,
that feat will cost you the gallows. Don' t let go of the

(09:45):
shotgun, Mr Linton, you haven' t let go. Roberto answered the
old fool. The bandits will havemanaged to find out that yesterday was the
day of collection and it will haveseemed good occasion for them to enter that
they received it well. Juan Castthe chain, Eugenia Alea the dog have
come to get into the mouth ofthe wolf and on Sunday nothing less.
What insolence look Dear Mary is achild, do not be afraid, but

(10:09):
she has such a bad streak thatit would be a good thing for society
to hang her before she carries outthe crimes she is to commit to be
judged by subject. How awful tolock up in the basement, Dad.
It looks like the son of thegypsy who stole my domesticated pheasant, doesn
' t it, Eduardo? Asthey looked at me, Catherine appeared and
came out listening to Isabel. EduardoLinton, after staring at her, came

(10:31):
a time when he recognized her.Sometimes we have met in church is Catalina
air show assured and look how herfoot bleeds Mom. Don' t talk
nonsense. Catherine Shaw accompanies me inthe company of a gypsy oh and yet,
it leads to mourning, for itis she and to think that she

(10:52):
could be lame forever.“ Whatan incredible oversight your brother has,”
Mr Linton exclaimed, turning to Catherine. It is true that it is known
by Father Shelder, that they donot care at all about his education and
this is who he is. Ah, it' s that homeless little boy
the late air Shaw brought from Liverpool. Anyway, he' s a bad

(11:16):
boy who shouldn' t have livedin a distinguished house. The old lady
said you heard how she talks.Linton, I hate that my kids heard
you. I cursed them again asmuch as I could. Don' t
get mad, Helena, and thenthey sent Roberto to throw me out.
I didn' t want to leavewithout Catalina, but he forced me into
the garden and gave me a bluff. She told me that she was going
to tell Mr Shaw about my behaviorand, after ordering me to leave the

(11:41):
door, seeing that the curtains werestill off, she would go back to
where she had been before, proposingto break all the windows of the window
if Catherine wanted to leave and theywouldn' t allow her, but she
was sitting quietly on the sofa andMrs Linton, who had taken away the
shawl from the maid we had takenfor our excursion, spoke to her,

(12:05):
I suppose reprimanding her like a lady, treated her in another way that the
maid already had a hot water basinand washed her foot. Then Mr Linton
offered him a glass of sweet wine, while Isabel put a plate of cakes
and eduardo on her lap and remainedsilent within walking distance. Then they dried
his feet, combed his hair,put on some very large slippers and sat

(12:28):
him by the fire. So heleft her as happy as you can imagine,
handing out the candy with spy andwith the little dog and sometimes tickling
them on the snout. They wereall amazed at her and it' s
not strange because she' s wortha thousand times more than they are and

(12:48):
that anyone else is not true.You' ll see how that brings bad
results. Heathcliff answered him by shelteringhim and turning off the light you are
incorrigible. Mr Hinley will have toappeal to half the rigors. Don'
t doubt it. My words weremore true than I wished. The launch
enraged Airshow. In addition, thenext day, Mr Linton came to talk

(13:11):
to the master and dropped such ashower on his way of educating the children
that Helley felt compelled to put atbay. Heathcliff didn' t argue to
be beaten, but he told thefirst word to speak to Catherine to throw
him into the street. Mrs Airshawsaid that when Catherine returned to the house,

(13:31):
she would change her way of beingemployed by persuasion. Otherwise it would
have been impossible.
