Summary of the play with subtitles.
hello and welcome to another lesson where I'll be going over the entire plot of an inspector
00:00:02
calls this play within five minutes the reason why I am condensing all the major events within
00:00:11
this play into five minutes is because sometimes it's really get easy to get wrapped up in the
00:00:17
detail of the play it's really easy to kind of drown in all reams and reams of information and
00:00:21
revision notes my maps and all that stuff and it can be really really difficult to take a step back
00:00:27
and think okay now I've got my mocks coming up now I've got my exams coming up do I know all the key
00:00:31
events within the play so I thought this would be a really useful and handy revision tool that you
00:00:37
can turn to when revising the major key events within an inspector call so let's get into it
00:00:41
inspector calls in five minutes now remember that the play starts with Sheila and Gerald Croft in
00:00:47
the Burling household celebrating their engagement even if we know that Sheila is a little bit annoyed
00:00:52
at Gerald because he basically ignored her the previous summer she accepts the ring that he
00:00:56
offers her to the delight of her entire family and especially mr berling who is extremely pleased
00:01:01
because he runs a company that's the rival of the croft company okay so he has his own
00:01:06
manufacturing company and if if sheila and gerald get married they will be able to merge the business
00:01:12
together and he will really benefit from this now mr berling sets eric and gerald to the side
00:01:18
and they talk about the future mr berling reveals that he's very myopic his mind is up in the air
00:01:24
he basically says that firstly the Germans don't want world war so you know the likelihood of first
00:01:29
world war happening is very slim the Titanic will never sink and of course every man has to look
00:01:34
after his own business himself society does not have any responsibility towards the poor to help
00:01:39
them out whilst he's pontificating and telling both Eric and Gerald about this an inspector
00:01:45
arrives Edna goes finds him waiting at the door brings him in and inspector Gould tells them that
00:01:50
a lady called Eva Smith has committed suicide and died at the infirmary and it's actually all of
00:01:55
their fault. Inspector Gould starts by blaming Mr. Burling who fired her from his factory because
00:02:00
Eva Smith wanted to ask for more wages for slightly fairer pay and she got all of the women in the
00:02:06
factory she organized them into a group where they protested for more wages and Mr. Burling simply
00:02:11
fired her. Then Inspector Gould turns to Sheila and he says that Sheila is also responsible for
00:02:16
Eva Smith's death because Eva Smith after being fired was able to get a job in a shop called
00:02:22
Millwoods where Sheila shopped however Sheila used her influence because she was very jealous of Eva
00:02:27
Smith's beauty to have her fired. Inspector Gould then turns to Gerald Croft. Gerald Croft who was
00:02:31
supposed to be engaged to Sheila and he unveils the fact that Eva Smith because she was unable
00:02:37
to get any more jobs she had to lead a very different sort of life in other words she had
00:02:44
to become a prostitute and whilst working as a prostitute and where people knew in the palace
00:02:47
bar prostitutes hung around gerald croft met her and he made her his mistress over the summer over
00:02:53
the previous summer and he used her for sex and afterwards he just basically discarded her as if
00:03:01
she was a piece of rubbish next inspector gall turns to mrs berling and he blames her because
00:03:06
she used her influence over her charity to redact daisy renton when she was seeking help because she
00:03:11
was pregnant then finally blame is shifted to eric burling as well okay so eric was also blamed
00:03:17
because he also met daisy whilst she was working at the palace bar just like gerald and he started
00:03:25
a relationship he was using her and then obviously ended up making her pregnant so mrs burling
00:03:32
actually indirectly influenced the death of both daisy renton but also her grandchild now gerald
00:03:36
leaves and investigates okay so he leaves under the guise and under the pretense that he's really
00:03:43
sad he's really sorry all of this happens however he goes off and investigates and discovers that
00:03:48
the inspector actually doesn't exist and he even questions whether this girl this person who the
00:03:53
inspector is talking about does she even exist maybe there were four or five girls that were
00:03:58
affected by them he comes back and tells them the news and we learn that gerald mr berling and mrs
00:04:03
berling are really pleased they're delighted they can cover all of this up however eric and sheila
00:04:08
are disappointed they're disappointed in them and they're disappointed that they've not learned
00:04:11
anything from this encounter with inspector gore and finally whilst there's now a complete divide
00:04:15
between the family with sheila and eric wanting to change whilst gerald mr and mr berling not
00:04:20
wanting to change they get a call okay so the phone rings and they're told that a girl has
00:04:25
recently killed herself in the infirmary and there's an officer on the way to ask the berling
00:04:30
family about their role in her suicide so of course the play has a circular structure it starts
00:04:35
off with the death of a girl and ends with the death of a girl so that's really it when it comes
00:04:40
to knowing the key events to revise when considering inspector calls within five minutes thank you for
00:04:44
listening
