She is the countess Sofia Alexeyevna Belinskaya. She has everything that I wanted for this place. She has the allure, the tragedy, the weariness. She knows that history has no place for her kind anymore. She is perfect. My centre piece.

She is the Countess Sofia
Alexeyevna Belinskya.
00:00:08.376 --> 00:00:10.547
She has everything that I wanted
for this place.
00:00:10.615 --> 00:00:15.035
She has the allure,
the tragedy, the weariness.
00:00:16.092 --> 00:00:20.004
She knows that history has no place...
00:00:20.471 --> 00:00:22.413
for her kind anymore.
00:00:25.998 --> 00:00:26.509
She's perfect.
00:00:26.808 --> 00:00:28.335
My centerpiece.
00:00:28.824 --> 00:00:31.311
You must be a happy man, Mr. Jackson.
00:00:32.001 --> 00:00:36.018
In a little over a year,
you've managed to realize your dream.
00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:38.228
I thought for a while that I had...
00:00:38.296 --> 00:00:41.999
that I had really achieved
what I'd always wanted...
00:00:41.112 --> 00:00:43.184
but I was never quite happy.
00:00:43.511 --> 00:00:45.009
For a long time,
I couldn't put my finger on it.
00:00:45.976 --> 00:00:49.686
I just knew, I just knew that something...
There was something missing.
