00:00:00Once upon a time, the kingdom of Mercia is at war.

00:00:04Every man must stand and fight.

00:00:08No.

00:00:10No.

00:00:11Please.

00:00:12I don't want to go to war.

00:00:14Spare me!

00:00:18I'm scared, Arthur.

00:00:20Will they take you and Papa away, too?

00:00:23No, they won't.

00:00:26Okay?

00:00:26I got something for both of you.

00:00:30I had these blessed by the church today.

00:00:34This one is for you, Arthur.

00:00:39And this one, Anna, is for you.

00:00:42May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.

00:00:49Thank you, Mom.

00:00:52I love you.

00:00:55Mama?

00:00:56Yes.

00:00:57My belly hurts.

00:00:58I think I need to go potty.

00:01:00I see.

00:01:03Yes.

00:01:03Wait, Mama.

00:01:05It's Papa's birthday today.

00:01:07I was wondering if I could have some coins so I could get a little, little bit of beef.

00:01:13Just a little bit.

00:01:14I'm sorry, but we can't afford beef.

00:01:24Maybe we could have a chicken.

00:01:27Your favorite chicken pie.

00:01:29Huzzah!

00:01:30Thank you, Mom.

00:01:31I love you.

00:01:33I love you.

00:01:34Bye!

00:01:35Bye!

00:01:36Bye!

00:01:38Bye!

00:01:39Bye!

00:01:40Bye!

00:01:41Bye!

00:01:42Bye!

00:01:43Bye!

00:01:56Every man must stand and fight.

00:01:59Take him.

00:02:00Stop!

00:02:01No, I'm only 13!

00:02:03Let me go!

00:02:04Mama!

00:02:05Mama!

00:02:05Arthur!

00:02:12Arthur!

00:02:13Arthur should be here by now.

00:02:15Where is he?

00:02:17Arthur!

00:02:18Arthur!

00:02:19Arthur!

00:02:30Mama!

00:02:31Mama!

00:02:32Mama!

00:02:32Have you seen my son?

00:02:54Have you seen Arthur?

00:02:56The baron's men took him.

00:02:58What?

00:02:58They're marching him to the border.

00:03:00They're sending him to war.

00:03:01No.

00:03:02No.

00:03:04No.

00:03:05It's...

00:03:07Kate.

00:03:17You're hurt.

00:03:19Girl, they took him.

00:03:22We have to get him.

00:03:23He's only 13.

00:03:24He wants to arrive on the battlefield.

00:03:27Let's go.

00:03:29You know?

00:03:30Have you seen a boy?

00:03:31Have you seen Arthur?

00:03:31He's our son.

00:03:32Right here with soldier people.

00:03:35Hey, are you soldiers of the baron?

00:03:37Have you seen a boy?

00:03:38A strong lad.

00:03:40Brown hair.

00:03:40About this tall.

00:03:42The boy we took from the market, is it?

00:03:43Yes.

00:03:44Yes.

00:03:44Yes, that's him.

00:03:46Where is he?

00:03:47Your boy is either dead or going to be soon.

00:03:49He can't be.

00:03:50You're lying.

00:03:51Away with you, woman.

00:03:52Give me back my son.

00:03:53The law says that no boy should be conscripted unless he's 16 years old.

00:03:57Arthur's 13.

00:03:58Please!

00:03:59Please!

00:04:04If you didn't want him gone, you should have kept him at home.

00:04:07You have no one to blame but yourself.

00:04:08It's all my fault.

00:04:11I killed him.

00:04:12I should never have let him go to the butchers by himself.

00:04:15It's...

00:04:16Shut up, wench!

00:04:17Or I'll make you join him real soon!

00:04:22Comet now!

00:04:23Foolish as they are, we can't just kill as we wish!

00:04:28Comet boy from filth like you!

00:04:30He was doomed from the moment he met us!

00:04:37He's right.

00:04:40It's all my fault.

00:04:41I shouldn't have let him alone.

00:04:42You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:04:44We will bring our boy home.

00:04:48Arthur.

00:04:51Where are you?

00:05:00You're my.

00:05:21You're my.

00:05:22You're my.

00:05:23You're my.

00:05:24You're my.

00:05:25I'm my.

00:05:26You're my.

00:05:27I have a feeling I know why you're here,

00:05:30Your Majesty, nothing escapes you.

00:05:34Nothing does escape me.

00:05:36Which is why I've already sent word out to Stamford.

00:05:39You'll oversee the building of a new fort

00:05:42to strengthen our borders.

00:05:44The Baron of Stamford will host you

00:05:46until the completion of the project.

00:05:48But your Majesty, my duty as a duke is to protect-

00:05:50Go, go.

00:05:54Go, my boy.

00:05:56You've fought enough battles for me

00:05:58and did a great service to the kingdom of Mercia.

00:06:02This is why I gave you the title of Duke.

00:06:07Go back to Stamford.

00:06:10Find your family.

00:06:12They would be so proud to see the man you've become.

00:06:16And while you're at it, build me that castle, eh?

00:06:22I won't let you down, sir.

00:06:28I miss you.

00:06:34Robert, my sweet nephew.

00:06:36Here.

00:06:37All my wages.

00:06:41I'm depending on you.

00:06:42You work for the Baron now,

00:06:44so please help me find your cousin.

00:06:46I beg of you.

00:06:47Aunt Jane.

00:06:48My connections are expensive.

00:06:49I'll look into it.

00:06:50But not today.

00:06:52The duke is coming to Stamford.

00:06:53Everything has to be perfect.

00:06:55The duke is coming.

00:06:56Robert, maybe you can ask the duke if-

00:06:57to help me find my son.

00:06:58I've heard that the duke is a great knight in battle,

00:06:59so perhaps you could ask him to see if he recognizes this boy

00:07:00with his necklace.

00:07:01Maybe he knows my Arthur.

00:07:02Have you lost your wits?

00:07:04Ask the duke for help?

00:07:05Who do you think you are?

00:07:06Even the Baron wouldn't dare trouble the duke for such trifles.

00:07:09Robert, please, just have him take a look.

00:07:11Ah!

00:07:12Ah!

00:07:13Ah!

00:07:14Ah!

00:07:15Ah!

00:07:16Ah!

00:07:17Ah!

00:07:18Ah!

00:07:19Ah!

00:07:20Ah!

00:07:21Ah!

00:07:22Ah!

00:07:23Ah!

00:07:24Ah!

00:07:25Ah!

00:07:26Ah!

00:07:27Ah!

00:07:28Ah!

00:07:29Ah!

00:07:30It's your own fault you lost your son.

00:07:42Don't blame other people for your own negligence.

00:07:45It is my fault.

00:07:46I should have never let him out of my sight.

00:07:48I regret it every single day.

00:07:50But you promised that if I gave you all of my wages,

00:07:54you would help me find my son.

00:07:56I told you not today.

00:07:59The duke could be here any second.

00:08:02Get lost before he sees your ugly face.

00:08:05Ah!

00:08:06The duke is here.

00:08:07Go!

00:08:08Get!

00:08:09The duke is here.

00:08:10Go!

00:08:11Get!

00:08:22That's the duke.

00:08:24He's the one that defeated the five kingdoms.

00:08:27The king treats him like a suck.

00:08:30Which he's got?

00:08:31The duke is here.

00:08:32It's the duke is now.

00:08:33It's so big.

00:08:34It's so big.

00:08:35The duke is here.

00:08:36Let's see.

00:08:37It's so big.

00:08:38It's so big.

00:08:39Beautiful.

00:08:40No!

00:08:41No!

00:08:42No!

00:08:43No!

00:08:44No!

00:08:45What!

00:08:46No!

00:08:47No!

00:08:48No!

00:08:49No!

00:08:50No!

00:08:51No!

00:08:52No!

00:08:53No!

00:08:54No!

00:08:55No!

00:08:56Presenting his grace, the Duke of Mercia.

00:09:15Welcome, your grace.

00:09:17Lord Benjamin, there's no need for such formalities.

00:09:20We've known each other for a decade now, have we not?

00:09:22Well, your grace, it was I who was sending you to the battlefield.

00:09:27I beg for your forgiveness.

00:09:29It was on the battlefield that I earned my honor.

00:09:32You are too kind, your grace.

00:09:34I've returned to find my family.

00:09:36Well, please tell me who they are and where they reside.

00:09:39I shall have them brought here at once.

00:09:41My memories are faint, clouded by the injury I sustained during the war.

00:09:46But my mother, she wore a pendant like this.

00:09:52May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.

00:10:07Could this be me?

00:10:10Finding who this belongs to.

00:10:11I will see to this personally.

00:10:13Mom, where are you?

00:10:21The Duke of Mercia has come to the Baron's Manor.

00:10:26The king must hold him in high regard.

00:10:29They say he's looking for his family.

00:10:31Who could be so lucky as to be the Duke's relative?

00:10:34Pardon to interrupt, but if he's here visiting his family, then there's a chance that possibly the Duke is my Arthur.

00:10:46Don't be stupid.

00:10:48This is the Duke, second in authority only to the king.

00:10:52How could a man like that be your son?

00:10:55Your son probably died on the battlefield.

00:10:58Stop being delusional.

00:11:02No.

00:11:02I must see the Duke.

00:11:06Have you lost your mind?

00:11:22I just want to make sure he's my Arthur.

00:11:32Did someone call my name just now?

00:11:41Your Grace, it's probably just the wind playing tricks.

00:11:44No one here would dare to speak your name so boldly.

00:11:47What were you thinking?

00:11:54Your actions will bring my family down with you.

00:11:57Robert just became butler.

00:11:59I won't have you ruining things for him.

00:12:02No, I swear that was my son.

00:12:05That was Arthur.

00:12:06You have truly gone mad.

00:12:08That was the Duke.

00:12:10The second most important man in the entire kingdom.

00:12:13How could a man of such standing be your son?

00:12:18He looked just like him.

00:12:20Do you mean to get us all hung, calling the Duke your son?

00:12:29What an insult to that fine gentleman.

00:12:32Please, just let me speak to him.

00:12:36Let me show him this.

00:12:37Robert!

00:12:51Robert, don't!

00:12:53Not while the Duke is here.

00:12:55Robert!

00:12:57What are you doing to my mother?

00:13:00Anna!

00:13:00Give me that back I needed to find Arthur.

00:13:05Worthless piece of junk.

00:13:07Robert, we're family.

00:13:09We're supposed to help each other.

00:13:11But you're fun.

00:13:12Family?

00:13:14It's bad enough that we share the same blood.

00:13:17My son has risen up through the ranks,

00:13:20while yours only grows poorer and poorer.

00:13:24It's pathetic, really.

00:13:27I know, but I gave all of my wages

00:13:30so that you could find Arthur, and you...

00:13:32You never even planned to find Arthur.

00:13:37You never even thought to look for him.

00:13:40You liar!

00:13:41You cheat!

00:13:43Give me back my coin!

00:13:45Don't touch me with your filthy hands!

00:13:48In this, say goodbye to your son.

00:13:55No!

00:13:56Mother, no!

00:14:00Mother, no!

00:14:04I don't get excited.

00:14:05Mother, no!

00:14:07No!

00:14:10Come, Mother.

00:14:11Let's go.

00:14:14Oh, Anna, what have I done?

00:14:16We'll never be able to find Arthur, not with this.

00:14:18It's all right.

00:14:19It's all right, Mother.

00:14:20Have you forgotten?

00:14:21I carry one, too.

00:14:22Now, if you truly believe the duke might be our Arthur,

00:14:29I'll see what I can do.

00:14:41Arthur, my brother, could it really be you?

00:14:44Your grace, my lord.

00:15:09Forgive me, your grace.

00:15:11Forgive me, your grace.

00:15:14Useless girl.

00:15:16Your grace, are you all right?

00:15:19I'm fine, Lord Benjamin.

00:15:21No need to punish her for a simple mistake.

00:15:24Your kindness humbles us all.

00:15:27Well, don't just sit there.

00:15:29Clean yourself up.

00:15:34Why does she seem so familiar?

00:15:37Seems that I have someone who the duke might want.

00:15:40How could Robert do this to you?

00:15:47He beat you.

00:15:50You're his aunt for crying out loud.

00:15:52Oh, Carl.

00:15:54You know your family has always been cruel to us.

00:15:57It's only going to get worse now that Robert is butler to the baron.

00:16:04Mother?

00:16:05Father?

00:16:05This place is so familiar to me.

00:16:11And it's strategic.

00:16:14I'll build a new fort here.

00:16:16See to it that all the families along this road are asked to leave.

00:16:19And compensate them well.

00:16:21I will start the process right away.

00:16:22Okay.

00:16:22Mother.

00:16:30Mother.

00:16:31Yeah.

00:16:31What did the duke say?

00:16:33Did he...

00:16:34Mother.

00:16:37What?

00:16:38I don't think the duke is our Arthur.

00:16:42No.

00:16:43He does.

00:16:44He does resemble him, yes.

00:16:46But he didn't recognize the necklace.

00:16:49No.

00:16:49I'm so sorry.

00:16:54I thought I was him.

00:16:56I wanted to come back and give you the necklace.

00:16:59I know at least you'll sleep easier knowing this is by your side.

00:17:08Oh.

00:17:13Oh, your grace.

00:17:15I dare say you look as handsome as ever.

00:17:18These clothes are much more comfortable.

00:17:26Leave me.

00:17:27I wish to explore the city by myself.

00:17:29See if anything can jog my memory.

00:17:31Yes, your grace.

00:17:41Oh, it must be Anna.

00:17:42She must have forgot something.

00:17:45Anna?

00:17:46What are you all doing here?

00:17:56Especially after what you did to my wife.

00:17:58Long time no see, brother.

00:17:59Still living in this hovel, huh?

00:18:02Would you like some bread?

00:18:04We were just about to sit down for lunch.

00:18:07So I can offer you a fresh loaf.

00:18:09You call this food?

00:18:11The baron's dogs wouldn't eat this.

00:18:19But fortune favors the undeserving.

00:18:23Now you'll be able to buy some real food.

00:18:26What do you mean, Laura?

00:18:28Tell them, Robert.

00:18:29It really is a shack.

00:18:39But luckily, it'll be gone soon.

00:18:43Your land has been seized.

00:18:44This entire street will be dug up to make way for the new fort.

00:18:47To bolster our defenses.

00:18:50The order came directly from the Duke himself.

00:18:53No.

00:18:53But you will be well compensated for the trouble.

00:18:58What?

00:18:58Just sign here and you'll receive 20 gold pieces.

00:19:03As your brother, I should be entitled to half.

00:19:07But as you have no son, and I have a son, I ought to take two thirds.

00:19:12What?

00:19:12No, this is our family home.

00:19:15No.

00:19:16If Arthur returns, how will he find his way home?

00:19:19She's right.

00:19:19We won't give up our land.

00:19:20Not for 20 gold coin.

00:19:22Not for nothing.

00:19:23Then you are dafter than I thought.

00:19:25Let me remind you, your son is not coming back because he's dead.

00:19:32No.

00:19:32No, no, no.

00:19:33You hold your tongue.

00:19:34Arthur will return.

00:19:35And we will remain here until he does.

00:19:37We won't give up hope.

00:19:39Not for any penny coin.

00:19:40You don't get a say.

00:19:42The order comes from above.

00:19:44Enough of this insolence.

00:19:45Leave my house at once.

00:19:46Leave my house.

00:19:47Carl.

00:19:50Carl, you're right.

00:19:55We are family.

00:19:57We are supposed to support each other.

00:19:59And if you can't do that, then leave.

00:20:01Then you've chosen death.

00:20:02So be it.

00:20:07This place really does feel so familiar.

00:20:13What?

00:20:16What are you doing?

00:20:20I'll tell you this one last time.

00:20:23Sign the damn contract or I'll beat you to death.

00:20:26You are his brother.

00:20:27How can you do this to him?

00:20:29No man as useless as him deserves to be my brother.

00:20:32Oh.

00:20:33Oh.

00:20:34Oh.

00:20:36Sign it.

00:20:36Now.

00:20:37No.

00:20:39No.

00:20:40No.

00:20:40Oh.

00:20:41Oh.

00:20:42Oh.

00:20:43Oh.

00:20:44Oh.

00:20:45Oh.

00:20:46Oh.

00:20:47Oh.

00:20:48Oh.

00:20:49Oh.

00:20:50Stop it.

00:21:03Stop it.

00:21:04That's an order.

00:21:08What's a peasant like you doing here?

00:21:10Cross me and I'll beat you up too.

00:21:12You know who my son works for?

00:21:14The Baron.

00:21:15We're here to seize this land off his orders.

00:21:17So you better stay out of our affairs.

00:21:19So you're the Baron's henchman.

00:21:21I told him to see that every family is compensated fairly.

00:21:25And this is how you choose to do it?

00:21:34Good folks.

00:21:35You have my word.

00:21:36I will make this matter right.

00:21:38Lord Benjamin requests your land to build a new fort.

00:21:41But we will provide whatever is necessary for you.

00:21:44Do you know the Baron?

00:21:46Could you plead to him on our behalf, please?

00:21:48All we ask is that we remain here.

00:21:50We cannot leave our home, please.

00:21:52Rest assured, you'll be well compensated if you choose to depart.

00:21:57No, we don't want coin.

00:21:59This is my son's home.

00:22:01If it's torn down, he will never find his way home.

00:22:04Your son was taken, you say?

00:22:06Yes.

00:22:07He was only 13 years old.

00:22:09Taken far too young, conscripted by the Baron's soldiers.

00:22:13If we leave, he'll never find his way back.

00:22:17Please.

00:22:19Please, I beg of you.

00:22:24This pin?

00:22:25Yes.

00:22:26If it was a token, a promise, then my children and I would always be family together.

00:22:32This one is for you, Arthur.

00:22:42What?

00:22:54Mother.

00:22:55Arthur.

00:22:57Oh, is it you?

00:23:00It's me, Mom.

00:23:02I've come home.

00:23:03My boy.

00:23:05Ten long years.

00:23:07We searched for you.

00:23:08And finally, you come back to us.

00:23:12I'm sorry.

00:23:14I've been a bad son.

00:23:16But I promise, I will give you the life you deserve from here on out.

00:23:20Please, forgive me.

00:23:21Can we stop with the theatrics?

00:23:32Ten years have passed, and cousin Arthur returns as a peasant.

00:23:37I'd cry too if this were my son.

00:23:39Laura and George, do you see?

00:23:40Arthur has come home.

00:23:42What's there to cheer for?

00:23:44A beggar for a son?

00:23:45Or a thief, more likely.

00:23:48Look at him.

00:23:48Wandering around, starving and desperate.

00:23:53I don't care what you say.

00:23:55But my son has come home, and he is everything to me.

00:23:59Let's go inside, and I will make your favorite roast.

00:24:02And George and Laura, I would prefer if you left.

00:24:06We'd like to celebrate alone as a family.

00:24:08We're not leaving until you sign the contract, you useless fool.

00:24:15No, Robert, surely you understand.

00:24:17You're family.

00:24:19We'd like to celebrate.

00:24:20This low life doesn't deserve anything.

00:24:26I'm done arguing with you at this pigsty.

00:24:29Don't you point your finger at me.

00:24:31I could do much worse.

00:24:33Or do you want me to get my fiancée so you can beg for her forgiveness instead?

00:24:37Remember, I'm engaged to the prestigious Lady Edith.

00:24:42If she finds out about this, you'll all get a good beating.

00:24:46Go away!

00:24:51This is a joyous day, and I do not wish to spend it squabbling with you, Bill.

00:25:00Kneel before us, apologize, and be gone.

00:25:07You son of a whore.

00:25:11I'm the Baron's butler.

00:25:12The highest on his staff.

00:25:14You think I kneel to a common maid?

00:25:18You better show your respect.

00:25:23Now will you go?

00:25:26You scum!

00:25:29I'll have you know just how much I am worth.

00:25:31Inform Lady Edith.

00:25:33Ask her to come, won't you?

00:25:34Yes, Mr. Wellesley.

00:25:36Well, well, well.

00:25:37You fools have chosen not to take the gold, but it was the Baron's orders.

00:25:42Your hovel must come down.

00:25:44Lord Benjamin's orders, was it?

00:25:47That's Baron Stamford to you.

00:25:49On the contrary.

00:25:50I think I can call him Benjamin just fine.

00:25:54Are you mad?

00:25:56Who do you think you are?

00:25:58The Duke?

00:25:59Pulling rank like you're anything special.

00:26:02I dare say I'm special enough that even Lord Benjamin would kneel before me.

00:26:07What's that I hear about the Baron?

00:26:09Lord Benjamin, sir.

00:26:15The Duke has dismissed his guards and gone on a stroll.

00:26:17Where to?

00:26:19Around where the families are being asked to relocate, sir.

00:26:21What?

00:26:22Well, I hope he doesn't run into the Wellesleys.

00:26:25Guards, come with me.

00:26:28What's that I hear about the Baron?

00:26:30Did I just hear someone disrespecting my cousin, the Baron of Stamford?

00:26:42I tried to pay these lowlifes with gold, but they refused to leave their pigsty, and their

00:26:50son even hit me.

00:26:54You scumbag.

00:26:56How dare you lay your dirty hands on my fiancé?

00:26:58Do you know who I am?

00:27:01Why would I care who you are?

00:27:03He hit my parents, so I hit him back.

00:27:06Sounds fair to me.

00:27:07You are in the town of Stamford, my cousin's jurisdiction, and Robert is his head butler.

00:27:13You'll pay for what you've done.

00:27:16Bring him to the dungeons.

00:27:18No.

00:27:18I'll teach him a lesson.

00:27:20No, no, no, no, please don't.

00:27:21No, no, no, please don't.

00:27:22Please don't.

00:27:24Lord Benjamin's cousin.

00:27:26Is this how he taught you to behave?

00:27:27Oh.

00:27:28I didn't expect a lowly peasant like you to know who my cousin is.

00:27:33Don't tell me he's spoken to you before.

00:27:35Of course.

00:27:36In fact, why don't you ask him who I am?

00:27:39That's enough.

00:27:41Guards seize him.

00:27:42No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:27:44Don't take him.

00:27:45Please, he just came back.

00:27:46Please don't.

00:27:48Let go of me.

00:27:49This is your last chance.

00:27:51Seize me, and you'll have to face the consequences of your crime.

00:27:54As if I'd fear anything from a runt like you.

00:27:57I could kill you right now if I wanted to.

00:28:00Kill me?

00:28:01No.

00:28:01Is that right?

00:28:02No.

00:28:03Fine.

00:28:04I'll go with you.

00:28:05But don't say I didn't warn you.

00:28:06Watch your tongue.

00:28:08But don't worry.

00:28:09Soon, you'll be too busy screaming in my dungeon to talk back.

00:28:13Please, please don't hurt him now, Arthur.

00:28:16Father, Mother, don't worry.

00:28:18I'll be back very soon.

00:28:20You think you're coming back?

00:28:22Take him away.

00:28:23Oh, don't.

00:28:24Take your hands out, my son.

00:28:27Well, well.

00:28:29I didn't expect that runt to hit me.

00:28:31Just wait.

00:28:32The two of you will join him soon.

00:28:34Let's go, Father.

00:28:36Serves you right, brother.

00:28:37Lord Benjamin, it was all your butler's doing.

00:28:54And your cousin, Lady Edith.

00:28:56They even took my son to the dungeon.

00:28:58Your son?

00:29:01Tall and with dark hair?

00:29:07We need to go.

00:29:10Now.

00:29:13God, Carl, what are we going to do?

00:29:14Because Arthur's gone.

00:29:16Anne.

00:29:17Anne is engaged to John Moore.

00:29:19The Moors can help.

00:29:20They're engaged, yes, but that was years ago.

00:29:22John Moore's a rich man now.

00:29:23She surely can't.

00:29:24We have to try, Carl, please.

00:29:27You're right.

00:29:28We have to try.

00:29:28You're right.

00:29:28We have to try.

00:29:29We have to find our son.

00:29:35What happened to that fire?

00:29:36That rage?

00:29:38Scared of the consequences now, runt?

00:29:41Consequences?

00:29:42For giving you what you deserve.

00:29:49Watch your mouth.

00:29:52Your family is done for and you're still talking back.

00:29:57No, my lady.

00:29:58It's your family that's done for.

00:30:00I've made up my mind.

00:30:02I will not spare you.

00:30:03Me needing sparing from you.

00:30:08You've gone mad.

00:30:13It seems like you've gotten it in your head that you could do something to us.

00:30:18Let me remind you of your place.

00:30:32You insolent brat!

00:30:34What are you doing?

00:30:38Reminding you of your place.

00:30:43Stop it or I'll have you killed!

00:30:45You have me killed.

00:30:48You've got the wrong man.

00:30:49Consider it your warning, cousin.

00:31:05The gall of you!

00:31:08Threatening me and then calling yourself my cousin!

00:31:11I won't let you off easy!

00:31:12Oh!

00:31:12You want another go?

00:31:14Still trying to act tough!

00:31:16It seems like we'll need to teach you a lesson.

00:31:19Guards!

00:31:21Flog him!

00:31:24Hold it!

00:31:27You're not flogging anyone.

00:31:33Hold it!

00:31:34Oh, cousin, you don't understand.

00:31:43This lowly scum had disregarded your orders and impeded the Duke's relocation efforts and...

00:31:48And he even tried to punch me!

00:31:50Cousin Benjamin, you must see to it that he is punished.

00:31:53Stopped oinking once the Baron showed up, hmm?

00:31:57Your side of the Wellesley family is going to be dinner.

00:31:59Sir, this lowly villain is, unfortunately, my cousin.

00:32:05Just like his parents, they've no regard for your authority.

00:32:08That's right, Benjamin.

00:32:09What happened again?

00:32:11We had gone to the less fortunate Wellesley's to evict them, but he tried to stop us.

00:32:15So, Edith had him brought here to teach him a lesson, but it looks like he hasn't learned anything.

00:32:22Oh, oh, sir, you don't know the half of it.

00:32:24He hit us and ordered us to kneel to him.

00:32:27He even said that you were lowlier than he.

00:32:30You must punish him accordingly.

00:32:33As I was saying, the consequences of your actions...

00:32:38Oh, you fool.

00:32:41There will be consequences, all right.

00:32:43For you!

00:32:44What for, sir?

00:32:47Have I done something wrong, sir?

00:32:49I don't...

00:32:50Ah!

00:32:51Cousin, you misunderstand.

00:32:52There is no misunderstanding.

00:32:57Have you lost your mind?

00:32:58Do you know who this man is?

00:33:04Do you know who this man is?

00:33:06He's nothing but a beggar, the son of peasants!

00:33:10Ah!

00:33:12Get out of my sight, you pathetic woman.

00:33:15Duke of Mercia, your grace.

00:33:22Pardon my tardiness.

00:33:26Duke?

00:33:27What do you mean, Duke?

00:33:29Sir, you must be mistaken.

00:33:31Rightly so.

00:33:32He's a peasant, a beggar.

00:33:34How could he be the Duke?

00:33:36Ah!

00:33:37Don't question me.

00:33:41No.

00:33:41No, no, no, no, no, no.

00:33:43This is possible.

00:33:44How can you say you're the Duke?

00:33:48Shut it, Wellesley.

00:33:50You have no right to speak.

00:33:52That lowlier's the Duke?

00:33:54Carl's son is the Duke?

00:33:56Oh, no.

00:33:57No.

00:33:58George, what have we done?

00:33:59Oh.

00:34:00Oh.

00:34:07Lord Venture, it seems that you've neglected your duties as baron.

00:34:13Your people have shown me nothing but disdain.

00:34:17They take from the poor, torture your innocent, pillage and kill.

00:34:22Have you no order in Stamford?

00:34:24I'll have them punished for their wrongdoings.

00:34:27Their wrongdoings?

00:34:28I imagined then it was you who have allowed them to do this.

00:34:33And it is you who must be punished.

00:34:35Mercy, your grace.

00:34:38I want them flogged, exiled, punished to the extent of the law.

00:34:43Please, your grace, spare us, cousin.

00:34:49It's my fault.

00:34:51See, your grace, I've been a fool.

00:34:55Punish me, flog me as you will.

00:34:58We live.

00:35:00We are from the same family, Duke Arthur.

00:35:03I don't want to die.

00:35:06Young Arthur, my son had just become a butler.

00:35:09He's only just delivered us from the clutches of poverty.

00:35:13Please, we adore him so.

00:35:16You must kill him or exile him.

00:35:19Please, I beg you, as your uncle, as your father's old brother.

00:35:25Oh, you're too cruel, Arthur.

00:35:27How can you do this to another, Wellesley?

00:35:35Cruelty.

00:35:36Have you forgotten your cruelty to mother and father?

00:35:38Threatening to leave them homeless and laughing in their face when they begged you!

00:35:43Have you forgotten what you've done to my parents?

00:35:45Your own brother?

00:35:47And cousin Robert, what happened to making me see the consequences of my actions?

00:35:54Did you pity your poor cousin then?

00:35:57I've seen you for what you are.

00:35:59Shameless and wretched scum.

00:36:02You are unfit to live.

00:36:06Have them dealt with.

00:36:08And think about what you've done.

00:36:10You're meant to be noble.

00:36:11Not only in your actions, but in your name.

00:36:13See that your people behave.

00:36:16Or I'll have your title removed.

00:36:18I will see to them personally.

00:36:21Oh, please.

00:36:23Oh, sir.

00:36:23Please.

00:36:25Robert deceived me.

00:36:26It's all his fault.

00:36:28Please, Duke Arthur.

00:36:29Spare me.

00:36:31I'll do anything for you.

00:36:33Egypt.

00:36:34What are you doing?

00:36:37You villain.

00:36:39If it weren't for you, I never would have gotten involved with this mess.

00:36:42I'm calling off our engagement.

00:36:44From this moment onward, I'll have nothing to do with you.

00:36:47I beg of you, O Graydon, Honorable Duke.

00:36:50Forgive me.

00:36:52Don't you want to see what I have to offer?

00:36:56Save it, Sloth.

00:36:58Lord Benjamin.

00:36:59Make sure these vermin never cross my path again.

00:37:04They make me sick.

00:37:05Guards.

00:37:11Lock them up.

00:37:12Cousin, please.

00:37:13Won't you speak to him?

00:37:15Just let me go.

00:37:17I won't ever do it again.

00:37:20No.

00:37:21No.

00:37:22Cousin.

00:37:23Please.

00:37:24Please.

00:37:25No.

00:37:26In good news, Benjamin, I found my parents.

00:37:35That is wonderful, Your Grace.

00:37:37What a blessed day it is.

00:37:40I wish to host a banquet tonight.

00:37:41Introduce my parents to upper society.

00:37:45Life has been cruel to them, and I wish for them to live happily.

00:37:49Oh, and my sister too, Anna.

00:37:53I want to do something special for her as well.

00:37:55Did you just say Anna?

00:37:58And to the maid, Anna.

00:37:59Right.

00:38:00Anna.

00:38:01She works here, doesn't she?

00:38:04Seems that I have someone the Duke might want.

00:38:10Mr. Wellesley.

00:38:11Lord Benjamin says Anna is to attend to the Duke personally for the next few days.

00:38:19Did you just say Anna?

00:38:23And to the maid, Anna.

00:38:25Right.

00:38:26Anna.

00:38:27She works here, doesn't she?

00:38:28Bring me to her.

00:38:29No, Your Grace.

00:38:31What?

00:38:32I thought that you fancied her, so I...

00:38:35What have you done?

00:38:36Bring me to her right now.

00:38:44Ha ha ha ha ha.

00:38:45You have fine features for a scullery maid.

00:38:54I can see why he likes you.

00:38:57Mr. Crowley, did you need something?

00:39:00Yes, pet.

00:39:02You've been chosen.

00:39:08Take off your clothes.

00:39:10What are you going to do to me?

00:39:12Oh, don't worry.

00:39:13I have no interest in you.

00:39:14I wouldn't dare.

00:39:18Put this on.

00:39:26Perfect.

00:39:27I can see why he chose you in particular.

00:39:31Mr. Crowley, what's all this about?

00:39:33The Baron has ordered you to meet another client.

00:39:37A big man.

00:39:38You are to be his mistress, to satisfy his physical needs, of course.

00:39:44An honor for a common whore like you.

00:39:47No, I refuse.

00:39:48You don't have a choice.

00:39:51You don't have a choice.

00:39:52Baron's orders.

00:39:57Do you even know who you are serving?

00:39:59It is the Duke.

00:40:00The one you poured tea on.

00:40:02What?

00:40:02The Duke?

00:40:03Aw, dumb already, are you?

00:40:06Still think you can say no, whore?

00:40:08Please, I don't want to.

00:40:09It's a good opportunity, dammit.

00:40:18Mr. Crowley, I'm betrothed.

00:40:20I don't want to be another man's mistress.

00:40:24Hadn't your father just fallen ill?

00:40:26Weren't you complaining about money?

00:40:28Don't you even want to help your family, you ingrate?

00:40:31Serve the Duke, and the money's yours.

00:40:46You'll have no short supply of expensive little trinkets.

00:40:57I would never sell my body.

00:41:00Not for a few coppers.

00:41:02Not for anything.

00:41:05I am a woman of honor.

00:41:07Honor is for people who deserve it,

00:41:10not a lowly whore like you.

00:41:22No!

00:41:23Oh, no!

00:41:24You don't get to say no!

00:41:25Oh, my God!

00:41:27Please!

00:41:27Hands off!

00:41:29Oh, no!

00:41:30You don't get to say no!

00:41:31Oh, my God!

00:41:33Please!

00:41:35Hands off of her!

00:41:38He didn't hurt you, did he?

00:41:39Are you the Duke, sir?

00:41:43Sir, what is the meaning of this?

00:41:45You imbecile!

00:41:47But, sir, you said...

00:41:49Have you no shame acting like this in my manner?

00:41:55Sir, this bitch refused your orders.

00:41:59It is my right as house steward to teach her a lesson.

00:42:05Apologize to her, or I'll have you fired.

00:42:09Apologize, sir, but she's a lowly scullery maid.

00:42:13She was out of line.

00:42:14She was out of line.

00:42:17A lowly maid.

00:42:19Mark my words.

00:42:20She's Duke Arthur's sister.

00:42:26She's his sister?

00:42:28The lowly maid is his sister?

00:42:31Arthur, are you really my brother?

00:42:35My Arthur?

00:42:36Yes, Anna.

00:42:38I've come back to protect you and mother and father.

00:42:43Arthur, where have you been all these years?

00:42:46You missed you terribly.

00:42:48There, there.

00:42:49Sir, let me deal with this man first.

00:42:57Once again, Lord Benjamin, your men have shown their true colors.

00:43:02Disgusting and vile.

00:43:05Sir, I failed to discipline them.

00:43:08But yes, sir.

00:43:11Duke, I was wrong.

00:43:13I would have never treated her like that had I known that she was your sister.

00:43:17Yet you see no issue in treating her this way if she wasn't.

00:43:24Isn't that so?

00:43:27Lowly servants?

00:43:28They're worthless in your eyes, aren't they?

00:43:30Well, Mr. Stewart, you're worthless to me.

00:43:33No.

00:43:34It was Benjamin, the Baron.

00:43:35Lord!

00:43:35He asked me to.

00:43:36No, I didn't.

00:43:38God!

00:43:39Throw him into the dungeon.

00:43:40No!

00:43:41No, please.

00:43:42No, sir.

00:43:44No.

00:43:44No!

00:43:45No.

00:43:48Anna, tell me truly.

00:43:51Are you all right?

00:43:53Yes, I am now.

00:43:55Because you're back.

00:43:56And I can't believe it.

00:43:58You're the Duke.

00:43:59Oh, well, let's go see mother and father.

00:44:01They'll be overjoyed.

00:44:02I just know it.

00:44:03Anna, I've already met them.

00:44:05Oh, then you must know the years have been quite hard on them.

00:44:11But it's all worth it.

00:44:12Because you're back.

00:44:14Anna, stay here.

00:44:16I'll bring them here.

00:44:18Okay?

00:44:19Duke Arthur, I believe that your parents are currently of the Moors.

00:44:24John Moore has been engaged to your sister for some time.

00:44:28Yes, John and I are engaged, but...

00:44:31He's your fiancé, Anna.

00:44:33So I'll love him like a brother.

00:44:35Lord Benjamin, arrange a feast for tonight.

00:44:38I want to show our parents high society.

00:44:41And invite John Moore.

00:44:44I'll speak to the king.

00:44:45See if he can grant him a noble title.

00:44:49As you wish, Duke Arthur.

00:44:57He's at the Moors' home.

00:45:00Fine place for a merchant family, but...

00:45:03They'll be able to afford better very soon.

00:45:08Well, we're here.

00:45:11The home of our supposed son-in-law.

00:45:13Yeah.

00:45:21You tottering fool.

00:45:24Why have you come back?

00:45:27John, this is your fiancé's father.

00:45:32Ow!

00:45:32You will call me Mr. Moore.

00:45:36And you are nothing to me.

00:45:38John!

00:45:39That's Mr. Moore.

00:45:41Shut up.

00:45:42I'm sorry.

00:45:44Mr. Moore, please, let's talk.

00:45:47And what is this about me being your daughter's fiancé?

00:45:51You've always been poor, but now you're liars, too.

00:45:54Mr. Moore, you know as well as I do.

00:45:56You've been betrothed to Anna for years.

00:46:00Your father and I, we had an arrangement.

00:46:01That may be so, but circumstances have changed.

00:46:05Do you think my father would want me marrying someone that comes from you filthy swine?

00:46:11That's not why we're here today.

00:46:13We're here because...

00:46:15Oh, I know.

00:46:16Money.

00:46:17Isn't that right?

00:46:21Alms for the poor.

00:46:23Now away with you.

00:46:25Mr. Moore, we didn't come here today for money.

00:46:28That's enough!

00:46:30Your breath reeks.

00:46:33Beat some sense into the old Kaja and take him out of here.

00:46:35I'd like to see you try.

00:46:41I'd like to see you try.

00:46:46Arthur, my boy, they set you free.

00:46:50Rightfully so, Father.

00:46:51Arthur, it's so good to see you alive and well.

00:46:56Father, mother, Robert's been punished for what he did to you.

00:47:00You must be the son I keep hearing so much about.

00:47:05Weren't you kidnapped to join the army?

00:47:07Run away, did you?

00:47:09And now you've come here to leech off me?

00:47:12You're John Moore.

00:47:14Now, did I hear you say you wanted to have my father beaten?

00:47:19So what if I did?

00:47:21What's a rotten like you gonna do about it anyway?

00:47:25Cry?

00:47:26Piss your pants?

00:47:28Say that again.

00:47:30If you think I'm gonna take it easy on you because you're engaged to my sister,

00:47:39then you'd be wrong.

00:47:41Let go of me, you dirty dog.

00:47:48Resulting to violence now, are we?

00:47:51Like the lowlife you are.

00:47:54Come on, then.

00:47:55Hit me.

00:47:56And you regret ever being born.

00:47:58You think that can stop me?

00:48:00Who do you think you are?

00:48:11Oh, it's just a peasant.

00:48:13John, my darling, I come bearing good news.

00:48:16Father says the Duke has arranged for a banquet at the manor and you're invited.

00:48:20And the Duke is going to ask the king to grant you a title.

00:48:23Finally, you can be part of upper society and we can marry.

00:48:26A title?

00:48:27Adela, tell me it's true.

00:48:29I finally have a name to match my wealth.

00:48:31Ah, no one will be able to tell us what to do.

00:48:34No one will be able to say no to us.

00:48:39Of course it's true, John, darling.

00:48:41The Duke adores my father.

00:48:42He's the baron, after all.

00:48:44In fact, the Duke is at the manor right now.

00:48:48Don't waste your time with these peasants.

00:48:50Let's go, John.

00:48:51Lady Adela, I'm afraid we must deal with these peasants first.

00:48:53As dearly as they are, this is Arthur, Anna's brother.

00:48:58And now that I'm rich, he wants to force me to marry his sister.

00:49:02What did you say?

00:49:03Hmm.

00:49:05Oh, I see.

00:49:06You're that boy that was kidnapped as a child.

00:49:09Well then, be gone.

00:49:12We have nothing to give a shameless beggar.

00:49:16Oh, don't touch me, you disgusting man.

00:49:18Don't you know who my father is?

00:49:20Lord Benjamin, evidently.

00:49:22Don't you know?

00:49:24Even your father watches his tongue around me.

00:49:26Ah!

00:49:27Adela!

00:49:28I can't believe I've been touched by a dirty beggar!

00:49:33Have you no manners and on the rich?

00:49:35You scum.

00:49:36You better beg for forgiveness if you want to live.

00:49:39And what authority do you have over me?

00:49:42And what authority do you have over me?

00:49:44Every authority, peasant scum.

00:49:47My father is the Baron of Stamford.

00:49:50And now that you're all here, let it be known.

00:49:52I am not going to marry Anna.

00:49:55I am to be a noble, so do not let me catch sight of you all again.

00:50:01Going back on your word, John?

00:50:03That's unbecoming of your future title.

00:50:05I think John has made himself clear enough.

00:50:07Get lost, you blood-sucking leech.

00:50:10Leeching off of him?

00:50:12I would never.

00:50:14His money is as vile as his word.

00:50:18No matter.

00:50:19A man like you doesn't deserve my sister anyway.

00:50:24Men, get him.

00:50:27No!

00:50:29Men, get him.

00:50:31No!

00:50:34Arthur, we will tell Anna.

00:50:37But, please, we cannot anger Mr. Moore.

00:50:42He's going to be a noble now.

00:50:44At least your chambermaid of a mother knows how to act in front of men like me.

00:50:49Drop the matter, and I'll let you leave.

00:50:53Amen.

00:50:55We'll go.

00:50:57But best you remember,

00:50:59it is the Wellesleys who called off this engagement.

00:51:02Because you, John Moore,

00:51:05are unfit for my sister.

00:51:11John Moore,

00:51:12are unfit for my sister.

00:51:15My word.

00:51:17Unfit.

00:51:18For you.

00:51:19Let's see.

00:51:20Servant, servant, beggar.

00:51:23Oh, you're too funny.

00:51:25Take this as a friendly warning, John.

00:51:28Lest you regret your decision later.

00:51:30I have no mind to regret anything regarding you lot.

00:51:33Now that that's settled,

00:51:36if you ever speak to us again,

00:51:38I will have your legs cut off.

00:51:41Come now.

00:51:42We have a banquet to attend.

00:51:53That's the Moors for you.

00:51:55Some coin,

00:51:55and they forget everything that we've ever done for them.

00:51:58Oh, Arthur.

00:51:59I wish we had had a better reception for you.

00:52:03Oh, Mother,

00:52:03don't say that, please.

00:52:05I've already arranged something for you.

00:52:07I finally found you.

00:52:08That's cause for celebration.

00:52:10You've arranged something?

00:52:11No.

00:52:12No, I...

00:52:13Please.

00:52:15I hope you haven't spent any coin on us, Arthur.

00:52:17What have you arranged?

00:52:19Just something small at the Baron's Manor.

00:52:21Don't worry, Mother.

00:52:23It's been paid for.

00:52:24At the Baron's Manor?

00:52:25Arthur!

00:52:26Haven't you heard the Duke will be there?

00:52:29We can't possibly impose.

00:52:30It's...

00:52:31Like I said, Mother,

00:52:33don't worry.

00:52:35You'll see.

00:52:36Oh, shit.

00:52:37Lady Adela, this is all very splendid.

00:52:50You must introduce us to the Duke when he arrives.

00:52:54Oh, Mrs. Moore, of course.

00:52:56As the Baron of Stanford,

00:52:57my father is very close to the Duke.

00:53:00It's likely he was the one to recommend John in the first place.

00:53:03Of course, the Duke would love to meet you.

00:53:06I cannot believe it.

00:53:08A noble title.

00:53:09Lady Adela, you are simply full of surprises.

00:53:13You are the best match for John, no doubt about it.

00:53:17I mean to ask, Adela,

00:53:18why would someone like the Duke come to Stanford in the first place?

00:53:22Well, Stanford is his hometown.

00:53:24The king dispatched him here to oversee the building of a new fort.

00:53:29The real reason is his parents.

00:53:31He was separated from them when he was a child.

00:53:34Even this banquet I hear is all for them.

00:53:37Must be good noble people

00:53:39to rear such a fine man like the Duke.

00:53:42We must make a good impression.

00:53:43How did those peasants get in?

00:54:05This banquet, I've arranged it all for you.

00:54:15I'll introduce you to everyone shortly.

00:54:18Arthur, don't just.

00:54:20What do you mean for us?

00:54:22Mother, I'm serious.

00:54:25This is all for you.

00:54:27But how could you have arranged all this?

00:54:30How much money did you spend?

00:54:32Money has nothing to do with it, Father.

00:54:34I just want to see you happy.

00:54:36We are happy.

00:54:38Truly happy.

00:54:40We're finally all together again.

00:54:46John, I thought you told them to get lost.

00:54:48Why are they back?

00:54:54John, I thought you told them to get lost.

00:54:56Why are they back?

00:54:57Damn lowlives.

00:54:59They must have tailed us in.

00:55:00I knew those ill-bred dogs would go away that easily.

00:55:05Scoundrels all.

00:55:07Mrs. Moore, rest easy.

00:55:10This banquet is held on the Duke's orders,

00:55:13and Father asked me to see that our guests enjoy themselves.

00:55:17I have every authority to throw them out.

00:55:23Come.

00:55:24Who let you in?

00:55:38Who let you in?

00:55:40You must be lost, peasant.

00:55:42This is the Duke's banquet, not the gruel kitchen.

00:55:45I suggest you turn around immediately.

00:55:48And I suggest you shut your mouth.

00:55:49This is my manor.

00:55:52My father is hosting it under direct orders of the Duke.

00:55:57You have no place to speak here.

00:56:00And you?

00:56:02You must be the bitch that John was engaged to.

00:56:05I'll have you know,

00:56:07John is going to be a noble.

00:56:10You'll have no way into his home.

00:56:12Unless you'd like to be our maid once we marry.

00:56:16Lowborn as I may be,

00:56:18I'm still more noble than a harlot like you.

00:56:21You wench.

00:56:22I will not let you talk to Lady Adela like this.

00:56:26Apologize right now.

00:56:27I owe her nothing of the sort.

00:56:29She is the one who's courting an engaged man.

00:56:32I told your parents,

00:56:34and your disgusting beggar of a brother,

00:56:37I called off the engagement.

00:56:40You're not good enough for me.

00:56:42You're wrong.

00:56:43It's you who isn't good enough for me.

00:56:45I would never marry a man with such a fickle heart

00:56:48who would abandon his fiancée

00:56:50just to chase after some harlot's coin.

00:56:56You dirty bitch.

00:56:57That's what you get for talking to my son like that.

00:57:03How dare you raise your hands to my daughter?

00:57:06How dare she insult my son?

00:57:09You're right, mother.

00:57:10We ought to slap some sense into them.

00:57:12Anna, look at yourself.

00:57:14You're nothing compared to Lady Adela.

00:57:17It's no wonder I chose her.

00:57:20Lady Adela is Lord Benjamin's daughter.

00:57:24What do you have that Lady Adela doesn't?

00:57:27Besides this useless beggar of a brother.

00:57:31Do not insult my brother.

00:57:33He is more noble than any of you.

00:57:35All this dirty work must have done you in.

00:57:46A beggar like him.

00:57:49You lowly peasants.

00:57:51None of you deserve to talk to us.

00:57:53Get out or we'll throw you out with force.

00:57:58Get out or we'll throw you out with force.

00:58:01It is you who ought to be thrown out.

00:58:08Hmm.

00:58:09What a pretty money-sucking leech.

00:58:14I would tell her I am disgusted by the implication.

00:58:20Despite her features,

00:58:22a maid that cleans chamber parts all day

00:58:24is more fit to marry a stable boy.

00:58:26Say that again and I'll make you pay.

00:58:28Oh, no.

00:58:31What are you going to do?

00:58:33Hit me?

00:58:35Well, come on, then.

00:58:36Have at it.

00:58:41Well, I do say I think this was the first time

00:58:44I heard someone ask for it.

00:58:46But I think we all heard him clearly enough.

00:58:51You feel it.

00:58:52You actually asked.

00:58:53You asked for it.

00:58:55I obliged.

00:58:58Lord Benjamin.

00:59:02The Duke has arrived.

00:59:03He's here already.

00:59:05We have to go.

00:59:06You asked for it.

00:59:08I am to be a noble

00:59:10and you will not offend me again.

00:59:12Why should I care?

00:59:13I'm sure Lord Benjamin would understand.

00:59:15Do not speak my father's name.

00:59:18You're dead.

00:59:19My father will see to it when he arrives.

00:59:21On your knees.

00:59:23And I demand you apologize to John now.

00:59:26And your filthy parents, too.

00:59:28Down!

00:59:29Who do you think you are barking orders at me?

00:59:30Don't think you're so high and mighty

00:59:32just because you followed us in.

00:59:34You've no right to speak to my son

00:59:36or Lady Adela like this.

00:59:38Don't you know how much I suffered

00:59:40being betrothed to your dirty whore of a sister?

00:59:43I will not let you embarrass me again.

00:59:48We've been gracious enough letting the matter go

00:59:51yet you shameless rats won't stop bothering us.

00:59:55Away!

00:59:55Off with you!

00:59:56Oh, Mrs. Moore.

00:59:57I have a much better idea.

01:00:00Let's add a few tears to their teary reunion.

01:00:03Guards!

01:00:07Execute him!

01:00:08No!

01:00:09I want to watch as they lose their precious son.

01:00:13Again.

01:00:14Oh, Lady Adela, I think if that's the case,

01:00:17we ought to keep him alive.

01:00:19He's already a useless beggar.

01:00:21We ought to break his legs and keep him that way.

01:00:24Lisa!

01:00:25Lady Moore!

01:00:26Please!

01:00:27I apologize.

01:00:29I'll have Arthur repent right away!

01:00:30Yes, please.

01:00:32Pardon us.

01:00:32Arthur, please.

01:00:34I beg of you, apologize.

01:00:36Please.

01:00:36You've enough wit to be scared, but it's too late.

01:00:40It's not my fault you've been grating on my nerves.

01:00:43I've nothing left for pity.

01:00:45Seems like you have quite a loud bark with no bite now.

01:00:50What did you just say to me?

01:00:53Mother.

01:00:54Father, I already told you, this banquet is for you.

01:00:58In honor of us all being together again, you have every right to enjoy yourself.

01:01:03And my sister was correct.

01:01:04You ought to apologize for your poor behavior, and I ought to have you thrown out.

01:01:09Soon, you'll be kneeling before us, begging for the forgiveness.

01:01:12We have every right to withhold.

01:01:13A pity to have a son like him.

01:01:17Imagine spending 10 years to find your son, just to have him turn out like this.

01:01:22The real pity is what will be happening to you soon.

01:01:25I think I'll be quite happy in the future.

01:01:28Oh, yes.

01:01:30Happy.

01:01:30Very happy, I imagine, with your legs mangled, crawling on the ground.

01:01:35Oh, and your poor parents.

01:01:38I'm sure they'll be very joyous over such a sight.

01:01:41Seize them!

01:01:42No, no, please no.

01:01:45Presenting, the Honorable Lord Benjamin, Baron of Stamford.

01:01:51Oh, you're in for it now.

01:01:53Lord Benjamin is the most powerful man in Stamford, and he's backed by the Duke,

01:01:59whose authority is second only to the King.

01:02:01You poor, poor souls.

01:02:03We'll see what the Duke has to say when he hears about this.

01:02:07I reckon you'll all be beaten to death in the dungeons.

01:02:10Don't waste your breath, madam.

01:02:12A commoner like him can't even fathom the great power the Duke has.

01:02:16Of course, Lady Adela.

01:02:17It'd be an honor for him to lay eyes on the gentlemen

01:02:20before he crushes them like the rats they are.

01:02:24Oh, no.

01:02:25I can't wait.

01:02:27How unfortunate it had to come to this.

01:02:30Yes.

01:02:30How unfortunate it is for you.

01:02:33Lord Benjamin is my father, and once I tell him what you've done to me and my dear John,

01:02:40he'll have you all beheaded.

01:02:42No.

01:02:43Oh, how lucky it is to be so simple-minded.

01:02:48You, half-dead cauders, and you, harlot.

01:02:54Any last words?

01:02:56No teary goodbyes?

01:02:58Or do you wish to die with him?

01:03:01John, please.

01:03:02Arthur was just impulsive.

01:03:04Please put in a good word for him.

01:03:05Get your dirty hands off of me.

01:03:08You scoundrel!

01:03:09I'll do it again.

01:03:14You scoundrel!

01:03:16I'll do it again.

01:03:18John!

01:03:19My darling boy!

01:03:21How dare you!

01:03:22Touch my parents again, and your family will pay.

01:03:26Let it be known, this night was meant to be a joyous one, and I did not wish to taint

01:03:30it with strife and bloodshed.

01:03:32I would have let you go, as awful as your behavior was to me, but you insulted my virtuous

01:03:37sister and raised your hand to my saintly mother and father.

01:03:41Your actions beg for punishment, and I am happy to see to you.

01:03:44Let it be known, I plan to exile the Moore family from the good town of Stamford.

01:03:55Oh, you've gone mad.

01:03:57Truly mad.

01:03:59Lady Adela, have your men restrain him for the safety of your guests, and have him flogged

01:04:04in the dungeon.

01:04:07What's this again about the dungeons?

01:04:09Lord Benjamin, you've finally come.

01:04:15My lord, we've been troubled so by these lowly peasants.

01:04:18Father, it's them.

01:04:19I say we take them to the dungeons.

01:04:26This is the Duke's banquet, Adela.

01:04:29I will not tolerate your antics.

01:04:32Pardon me, father.

01:04:33It seems I've been lax, for these lowly, dirty servants have snuck in.

01:04:37Lowly, dirty servants.

01:04:43Yes, father.

01:04:45The Mr. and Mrs. are servants, and so is the daughter.

01:04:48And he's a beggar.

01:04:50A vile, disgusting man.

01:04:52Perhaps we could send them away with some scraps from the kitchens.

01:04:56I dare say it'd be better than anything they've ever tasted.

01:04:59Oh, father, please allow me to see it.

01:05:01I'll have their bones broken and left out for the dogs for disturbing the Duke's banquet.

01:05:05Silence!

01:05:08But Lord Benjamin, why?

01:05:12Duke of Mercia, Arthur.

01:05:14Your Grace, at your service.

01:05:18Ailed in his grace, the Duke, Arthur.

01:05:21Lord Benjamin, I was promised a warm welcome.

01:05:46What is all of this?

01:05:47I'll see to it, Your Grace.

01:05:50My boy.

01:05:52What do the parents say?

01:05:53Is it Duke Arthur that he just called you?

01:05:56What?

01:05:57Sir.

01:05:59Madam.

01:06:00Please.

01:06:02Benjamin.

01:06:04At your service.

01:06:05I don't understand.

01:06:07Are you really?

01:06:08Yes, father.

01:06:10What?

01:06:10I'm the Duke.

01:06:13My book?

01:06:15The Duke?

01:06:16That's my son.

01:06:18That's my son.

01:06:19He's the Duke.

01:06:20What did I say?

01:06:22My brother is more noble than anyone.

01:06:26Lord Benjamin, are you certain he's the Duke?

01:06:30Father, you said the Duke was a great man.

01:06:34You must be mistaken.

01:06:35You stupid girl.

01:06:39How could I be wrong?

01:06:41And you?

01:06:42You ought to be ashamed.

01:06:44How dare you do this to his grace, Duke Arthur?

01:06:47No.

01:06:48It can't be.

01:06:50Father, tell me it's a joke.

01:06:51It simply can't be.

01:06:53Get on your knees, girl.

01:06:55And maybe he'll forgive you.

01:06:59No.

01:07:00You said that the Duke was going to give John a title.

01:07:02Why would John call off the engagement to his sister?

01:07:07Maybe this will get through your thick skull.

01:07:10He is the Duke.

01:07:11The one and only.

01:07:14Guards, take her away until she's learned her lesson.

01:07:20Guards, take her away until she's learned her lesson.

01:07:25No.

01:07:26Father, no.

01:07:27It can't be.

01:07:28It can't be the Duke.

01:07:29It simply can't be.

01:07:32Your Grace, I must apologize.

01:07:36That's enough.

01:07:37Your family has played your hand for it.

01:07:40Duke Arthur, sir.

01:07:42Why, certainly.

01:07:43My son is still engaged to the Wellesley's daughter.

01:07:46Our connection is nothing to stop at.

01:07:49Mother, my brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.

01:07:53My brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.

01:08:00Will be set for life.

01:08:02Oh, married to the sister of the Duke.

01:08:05Oh, goodness.

01:08:06That must be why you want to give me a noble title.

01:08:09So I can marry Anna.

01:08:11Anna.

01:08:12Can you believe it?

01:08:13Your brother, a Duke.

01:08:15What does that have to do with you?

01:08:16It has everything to do with me, darling.

01:08:19You're my fiancée, remember?

01:08:21Don't forget about me just because your brother's a Duke now.

01:08:24You are truly shameless, John.

01:08:27Don't be like that, my dear, darling fiancée.

01:08:29Fiancée, have you forgotten what you just called me?

01:08:33A dirty whore?

01:08:35Only fit to wait as table boy.

01:08:37Isn't that right?

01:08:38Oh, Anna, forgive him, would you?

01:08:41A pettiness that doesn't suit a pretty face like yours.

01:08:45Women like us, we ought to understand our husbands' temperaments.

01:08:48My sister, Petty, has rich coming from you.

01:08:54Oh, Duke Arthur, my brother.

01:08:57I must apologize for what I said.

01:09:00I'll apologize to Anna.

01:09:01There is no need.

01:09:03I have no wish to hear anything further from you.

01:09:06The woman has spoken, John.

01:09:07It seems my sister disdains your vile habits.

01:09:11Anna, this is all my fault.

01:09:14We grew up together, didn't we?

01:09:16I loved you.

01:09:17I did.

01:09:19This has all been a big misunderstanding, of course.

01:09:21I'm sure you can forgive me.

01:09:23Please, give me another chance.

01:09:26Yes, dear, just a misunderstanding.

01:09:29Let's put it all behind us now, shall we?

01:09:33Yeah.

01:09:35Forgive you!

01:09:35I don't think I will.

01:09:38It would be a sin to forget what you've done to my mother and father.

01:09:41My brother's title has nothing to do with you.

01:09:44I wish for you to be gone and never come back.

01:09:48Anna.

01:09:52Forgive me.

01:09:54You're better than this.

01:09:57Please, forgive me.

01:09:59You're better than this.

01:10:00Leave my sister alone, scum.

01:10:05Your apology means nothing.

01:10:07Please, your grace, Duke Arthur.

01:10:10It's all my fault.

01:10:11I've wronged you.

01:10:12I admit it.

01:10:13I beg your pardon.

01:10:15Mr. Westerly.

01:10:17Madam.

01:10:19Please ask Arthur to show us mercy.

01:10:21I was betrothed to Anna.

01:10:24I've shown her much kindness.

01:10:26Mother.

01:10:27Please ask him to forgive me.

01:10:29I cannot live without Anna.

01:10:32Jane, please.

01:10:34I even got you the job at the Baron's Manor.

01:10:36Are you going to be so cruel as to forget everything I've done for you?

01:10:40That John's done for you?

01:10:42A bit of compassion for an old friend?

01:10:45Yes.

01:10:46Mr. Welsie, please.

01:10:48I'll do anything for her.

01:10:49I'll give her whatever she wants.

01:10:51If you just please forgive my one transgression.

01:10:54How dare you ask for compassion?

01:11:02How dare you ask for compassion?

01:11:05Have you shown any compassion to my father?

01:11:07To my mother?

01:11:08Those ten long years I was gone.

01:11:11Did you help them at all?

01:11:12Did you give them any aid?

01:11:15You speak of them as an old friend.

01:11:16As if they have ever forsaken you.

01:11:19But you.

01:11:20Had I not been announced as the Duke.

01:11:22You would have kicked them to the ground and spit on their bodies.

01:11:26You called off my sister's engagement for the first noble lady you saw.

01:11:30You do not deserve my mercy.

01:11:32Duke.

01:11:33Arthur.

01:11:34I.

01:11:35Silence.

01:11:36I've seen you at your worst.

01:11:38I've seen how you treated me.

01:11:40My father.

01:11:41My mother.

01:11:42Anna.

01:11:42You are a shameless, filthy villain.

01:11:47Be gone.

01:11:49Lord Benjamin.

01:11:51Yes, sir.

01:11:52Have the Moors removed from the manor.

01:11:58Lord Benjamin.

01:11:59Yes, sir.

01:12:00Have the Moors removed from the manor.

01:12:03And forbid anyone from doing business with them in the town of Stanford.

01:12:07Yes, sir.

01:12:08Yes, sir.

01:12:12Much better.

01:12:15Father.

01:12:16Mother.

01:12:18Anna.

01:12:20Let us enjoy this banquet in peace.

01:12:23Arthur.

01:12:25This banquet is lovely.

01:12:29But nothing is better than us being reunited as a family.

01:12:34And together we'll be forever.

01:12:37Forever.

01:12:42Forever.

01:12:43Forever.

01:12:44Forever.

01:12:45Forever.

01:12:46Forever.

01:12:47Forever.

01:12:48Forever.

01:12:49Forever.

01:12:50Forever.
