Sinopse
Tom Bertram meets Fanny Price in Portsmouth and is shocked by the state of poverty and neglect in which the delicate young lady lives. So he makes the rash decision to marry her and bring her back to Mansfield with him as his wife. After all, what good is having a clergyman for a brother if you can't get married when you want to? But Tom never stopped to wonder if Fanny would be welcomed in her new home, or if he'd be responsible enough to look after her (he's not). And when Tom suddenly falls gravely ill, Mary Crawford (who isn't even betrothed to Edmund yet) begins planning her future as Mistress of Mansfield, unthinkingly displacing Fanny, who she considers all but a widow already. It's most certainly not the fairy-tale ending Fanny or Tom envisioned for themselves. With the looming fear of an uncertain future for his wife, Tom realises he needs to put away childish things for good and become a man worthy of inheriting Mansfield at long last.
