With Smike in tow, Nicholas returns to London and denounces his uncle, who swears revenge. They meet up with an acting troupe led by the spectacularly theatrical Vincent Crummles (Nathan Lane) and his wife (Barry Humphries), and the two are happy with the actors until a letter comes from Kate, who's being abused by her employers. Nicholas tries to care for and teach the boys, but he's unprepared to address the cruelty. The schoolmaster and his wife abuse the students, especially parentless Smike (Jamie Bell). Nicholas teaches at a boys' school, while Kate works for a dressmaker. Nicholas and Kate take the jobs Ralph procures for them, not seeing Ralph's opportunistic ways towards them. Then, the family must go to wealthy brother Ralph for help. Nicholas (Charlie Hunnam) and his sister Kate (Romola Garai) grow up in a small house in the country, until their financially-strapped father dies.
