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

00:00:04My son Arthur is taken by the Baron to the war.

00:00:07We must find him.

00:00:09Presenting his grace, the Duke of Mercia.

00:00:12I've returned to find my family.

00:00:13The Duke is coming.

00:00:14This is the Duke, second in authority only to the king.

00:00:19Your son is not coming back.

00:00:23Because he's dead.

00:00:25It's your own fault you lost your son.

00:00:27I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.

00:00:30He didn't recognize the necklace.

00:00:32Your land has been seen.

00:00:33What?

00:00:34No, this is our family home.

00:00:36Sign it, now.

00:00:37No.

00:00:38Stop it.

00:00:41Your son was taken, you say?

00:00:43Could this be me?

00:00:44My memories are faint, cladded by the injury I sustained during the war.

00:00:48Say goodbye to your son.

00:00:50That woman.

00:00:51Possibly the Duke is my Arthur.

00:00:57Once upon a time, the Kingdom of Mercia is at war.

00:01:04Every man must stand and fight.

00:01:08No.

00:01:09No.

00:01:10No.

00:01:11Please.

00:01:12Please.

00:01:13I don't want to go to war.

00:01:15Spare me!

00:01:18I'm scared, Arthur.

00:01:20Will they take you and Papa away, too?

00:01:23No, they won't.

00:01:26Okay?

00:01:27I got something for both of you.

00:01:31I had these blessed by the church today.

00:01:34This one is for you, Arthur.

00:01:39And this one, Anna, is for you.

00:01:42May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.

00:01:49Thank you, Mom.

00:01:52I love you.

00:01:55Mama?

00:01:56Yes?

00:01:57My belly hurts.

00:01:58I think I need to go potty.

00:02:01I see.

00:02:03Yes, I...

00:02:04Wait, Mama.

00:02:05It's Papa's birthday today.

00:02:07I was wondering if I could have some coins so I could get a little, little bit of beef.

00:02:13Just a little bit.

00:02:14I'm sorry, but we can't afford beef.

00:02:25Maybe we could have a chicken.

00:02:27Your favorite chicken pie.

00:02:29Huzzah!

00:02:30Thank you, Mom.

00:02:31I love you.

00:02:33I love you.

00:02:34Bye!

00:02:38Bye!

00:02:39Bye!

00:02:44Every man must stand and fight.

00:02:59Take him.

00:03:01Stop!

00:03:02No, I'm only 13!

00:03:03Let me go!

00:03:04Mama!

00:03:05Mama!

00:03:05Martha!

00:03:10Arthur!

00:03:13Arthur should be here by now.

00:03:16Where is he?

00:03:19Arthur!

00:03:31Mama!

00:03:32Mama!

00:03:35Wait.

00:03:48What?

00:03:49Look.

00:03:51What?

00:03:52Have you seen my son?

00:03:54Have you seen Arthur?

00:03:56The baronsmen took him.

00:03:58What?

00:03:58They're marching him to the border.

00:04:00They're sending him to war.

00:04:01No.

00:04:02No.

00:04:03No.

00:04:04No.

00:04:04Here.

00:04:16Kate!

00:04:17You're hurt!

00:04:19Girl.

00:04:20They took him.

00:04:22We have to get him.

00:04:23He's only 13.

00:04:24He wants to arrive on the battlefield.

00:04:27Let's go.

00:04:28He...

00:04:29No?

00:04:30You seen a boy?

00:04:31You seen Arthur?

00:04:31You seen our son?

00:04:32Right here with...

00:04:33With soldier people.

00:04:35Hey.

00:04:36Are you soldiers of the baron?

00:04:37Have you seen a boy?

00:04:38A strong lad.

00:04:39Brown hair.

00:04:40About this tall?

00:04:41The boy we took from the market, is it?

00:04:43Yes.

00:04:44Yes.

00:04:45Yes, that's him.

00:04:46Where is he?

00:04:47Your boy is either dead or going to be soon.

00:04:49He can't be.

00:04:50You're lying.

00:04:51Away with you, woman.

00:04:52Give me back my son.

00:04:53The law says that no boy should be conscripted unless he's 16 years old.

00:04:57Arthur's 13.

00:04:59Please.

00:05:04If you didn't want him gone, you should have kept him at home.

00:05:07You have no one to blame but yourself.

00:05:10It's all my fault I killed him.

00:05:13I should never have let him go to the butchers by himself.

00:05:15It's...

00:05:16Shut up, wench.

00:05:17Or I'll make you join him real soon.

00:05:22Comet, now.

00:05:23Foolish as they are.

00:05:24We can't just kill as we wish.

00:05:26Comet boy from filth like you?

00:05:30He was doomed from the moment he met us.

00:05:37He's right.

00:05:39I saw my fault he shouldn't have let him alone.

00:05:42You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:05:44We will bring our boy home.

00:05:47Arthur.

00:05:51Where are you?

00:05:52You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:05:53You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:05:54You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:05:55You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:06:03You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:06:04You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:06:05You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:06:06You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:06:07You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:06:08You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:06:09You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:06:10I have a feeling I know why you're here.

00:06:30Your Majesty, nothing escapes you.

00:06:34Nothing does escape me, which is why I've already sent word out to Stamford.

00:06:39You'll oversee the building of a new fort to strengthen our borders.

00:06:44The Baron of Stamford will host you until the completion of the project.

00:06:48But your Majesty, my duty as a duke is to protect...

00:06:50Go, go.

00:06:53Go, my boy.

00:06:56You fought enough battles for me and did a great service to the kingdom of Mercia.

00:07:03This is why I gave you the title of Duke.

00:07:07Duke, go back to Stamford.

00:07:10Find your family.

00:07:12They will be so proud to see the man you've become.

00:07:16And while you're at it, build me that castle, eh?

00:07:22I won't let you down, sir.

00:09:25the duke is here's the two gods a king treats me like a son

00:10:07Presenting as Grace, the Duke of Mercia.

00:10:14Welcome, Your Grace.

00:10:16Lord Benjamin, there's no need for such formalities.

00:10:19We've known each other for a decade now, have we not?

00:10:22Your Grace, it was I who was sending you to the battlefield.

00:10:26I beg for your forgiveness.

00:10:28It was on the battlefield that I earned my honor.

00:10:31You are too kind, Your Grace.

00:10:33I've returned to find my family.

00:10:35Well, please tell me who they are and where they reside.

00:10:38I shall have them brought here at once.

00:10:40My memories are faint, clouded by the injury I sustained during the war.

00:10:45But my mother, she wore a pendant like this.

00:10:52May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.

00:10:58Could this be me?

00:11:09Find who this belongs to.

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

00:11:15Mom, where are you?

00:11:18The Duke of Mercia has come to the Baron's Manor.

00:11:25The king must hold him in high regard.

00:11:28They say he's looking for his family.

00:11:30Who could be so lucky as to be the Duke's relative?

00:11:33Pardon to interrupt, but if he's here visiting his family,

00:11:38then there's a chance that possibly the Duke is my author.

00:11:42Don't be stupid.

00:11:47This is the Duke, second in authority only to the king.

00:11:51How could a man like that be your son?

00:11:54Your son probably died on the battlefield.

00:11:57Stop being delusional.

00:12:01No.

00:12:03I must see the Duke.

00:12:05Have you lost your mind?

00:12:07I just want to make sure he's my Arthur.

00:12:27Arthur.

00:12:37Did someone call my name just now?

00:12:40Your Grace, it's probably just the wind playing tricks.

00:12:43No one here would dare to speak your name so boldly.

00:12:49What were you thinking?

00:12:52Your actions will bring my family down with you.

00:12:56Robert just became butler.

00:12:58I won't have you ruining things for him.

00:13:01I swear, that was my son.

00:13:03That was Arthur.

00:13:04You have truly gone mad.

00:13:06That was the Duke.

00:13:08The second most important man in the entire kingdom.

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

00:13:17He looked just like him.

00:13:19I swear that...

00:13:21Ow!

00:13:22Ow!

00:13:23Do you mean to get us all hung?

00:13:26Calling the Duke your son?

00:13:28What an insult to that fine gentleman.

00:13:31Please, just let me speak to him.

00:13:34Let me show him this.

00:13:36Robert!

00:13:48Robert!

00:13:50Robert!

00:13:51Don't!

00:13:52Not while the Duke is here.

00:13:54Robert!

00:13:56What are you doing to my mother?

00:13:58Anna!

00:13:59Give me that back I needed to find Arthur.

00:14:03Worthless piece of junk.

00:14:05Robert, we're family.

00:14:07We're supposed to help each other.

00:14:10But you're fun.

00:14:11Family?

00:14:12It's bad enough that we share the same blood.

00:14:16My son has risen up through the ranks, while yours only grows poorer and poorer.

00:14:23It's pathetic, really.

00:14:25You know, but I gave all of my wages so that you could find Arthur, and you...

00:14:31You never even planned to find Arthur.

00:14:36You never even thought to look for him.

00:14:38You liar!

00:14:40You cheat!

00:14:41Give me back my coin!

00:14:43Don't touch me with your filthy hands!

00:14:46In this, say goodbye to your son.

00:14:54No!

00:14:55No!

00:14:57Mother!

00:14:58Mother, no!

00:15:02I don't get excited!

00:15:04Mother, no!

00:15:05No!

00:15:08Come, Mother.

00:15:09Let's go.

00:15:10Oh, Anna, what have I done?

00:15:15We'll never be able to find Arthur enough with this.

00:15:17It's all right.

00:15:17It's all right, Mother.

00:15:18Have you forgotten?

00:15:19I carry one, too.

00:15:22Oh, Anna.

00:15:24Now, if you truly believe the Duke might be our Arthur, I'll see what I can do.

00:15:28Arthur, my brother, could it really be you?

00:15:47Your grace, my Lord.

00:15:50My Lord.

00:15:58Forgive me, your grace.

00:16:12Useless girl.

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

00:16:17I'm fine, Lord Benjamin.

00:16:19No need to punish her for a simple mistake.

00:16:22Your kindness humbles us all.

00:16:25Well, don't just sit there.

00:16:27Clean yourself up!

00:16:32Why does she seem so familiar?

00:16:35The scene is that I have someone the Duke might want.

00:16:41How could Robert do this to you?

00:16:45He'd beat you.

00:16:48You're his aunt for crying out loud.

00:16:50Oh, Carl.

00:16:52You know your family has always been cruel to us.

00:16:55It's only going to get worse.

00:16:57Now that Robert is butler to the barium?

00:17:02Mother?

00:17:03Father?

00:17:06This place is so familiar to me.

00:17:09And it's strategic.

00:17:12I'll build a new fort here.

00:17:14See to it that all the families along this road are asked to leave.

00:17:17And compensate them well.

00:17:18I will start the process right away.

00:17:27Father?

00:17:29Yeah?

00:17:29What did the Duke say?

00:17:31Did he...

00:17:32Mother?

00:17:36What?

00:17:36I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.

00:17:40No.

00:17:41He does...

00:17:42He does resemble him, yes, but...

00:17:45He didn't recognize the necklace.

00:17:47No.

00:17:50I'm so sorry.

00:17:52I thought I was him.

00:17:54I wanted to come back and give you the necklace.

00:17:56I know at least you'll sleep easier, knowing this is by your side.

00:18:04Oh, your grace.

00:18:13I dare say you look as handsome as ever.

00:18:16These clothes are much more comfortable.

00:18:24Leave me.

00:18:25I wish to explore the city by myself.

00:18:27See if anything can jog my memory.

00:18:29Yes, your grace.

00:18:39Well, it must be Anna.

00:18:40She must have forgot something.

00:18:43Anna?

00:18:46Yeah.

00:18:50Ah.

00:18:53What are you all doing here?

00:18:54Especially after what you did to my wife.

00:18:56Long time no see, brother.

00:18:57Still living in this hovel, huh?

00:19:00Would you like some...

00:19:01Some bread?

00:19:02We were just about to sit down for lunch.

00:19:05So I can offer you a fresh loaf.

00:19:07You call this food?

00:19:09The Baron's dogs wouldn't eat this.

00:19:17But fortune favors the undeserving.

00:19:20Now you'll be able to buy some real food.

00:19:24What do you mean, Laura?

00:19:26Tell them, Robert.

00:19:31Ah!

00:19:32It really is a shack.

00:19:37But luckily it'll be gone soon.

00:19:40Your land has been seized.

00:19:42This entire street will be dug up to make way for the new fort.

00:19:45No.

00:19:45To bolster our defenses.

00:19:48The order came directly from the Duke himself.

00:19:50No.

00:19:51But you will be well compensated for the trouble.

00:19:55What?

00:19:56Just sign here and you'll receive 20 gold pieces.

00:20:01As your brother, I should be entitled to half.

00:20:04But as you have no son, and I have a son, I ought to take two thirds.

00:20:09What?

00:20:10No, this is our family home.

00:20:12What?

00:20:12No.

00:20:13If Arthur returns, how will he find his way home?

00:20:16She's right.

00:20:17We won't give up our land.

00:20:18Not for 20 gold coins.

00:20:19Not for nothing.

00:20:20Then you are dafter than I thought.

00:20:22Let me remind you, your son is not coming back because he's dead.

00:20:30No.

00:20:30No, no, no.

00:20:31You hold your tongue.

00:20:32Arthur will return.

00:20:33And we will remain here until he does.

00:20:35We won't give up hope.

00:20:36Not for any penny coin.

00:20:38You don't get a say.

00:20:40The order comes from above.

00:20:42Enough of this insolence.

00:20:43Leave my house at once.

00:20:44Leave my house.

00:20:45Carl.

00:20:50Carl, you're right.

00:20:53We are family.

00:20:55We are supposed to support each other.

00:20:56And if you can't do that, then leave.

00:20:58Then you've chosen death.

00:21:00So be it.

00:21:04This place really does feel so familiar.

00:21:08What?

00:21:13What are you doing?

00:21:18I'll tell you this one last time.

00:21:21Sign the damn contract or I'll beat you to death.

00:21:23You are his brother.

00:21:24How can you do this to him?

00:21:26No man as useless as him deserves to be my brother.

00:21:33Sign it now.

00:21:35No.

00:21:36No.

00:53:18haven't you heard the duke will be there we can't possibly impose it's like i said mother

00:53:24don't worry you'll see lady adela this is all very splendid you must introduce us to the duke when he

00:53:44arrives oh mrs moore of course as the baron of stanford my father is very close to the duke

00:53:51it's likely he was the one to recommend john in the first place of course the duke would love to

00:53:57meet you i cannot believe it a noble title lady adela you are simply full of surprises you are the

00:54:04best match for john no doubt about it how do you mean to ask adela why would someone like the duke

00:54:11come to stanford in the first place why stanford is his hometown the king dispatched him here to

00:54:18oversee the building of a new fort the real reason is his parents he was separated from them when he was

00:54:24a child even this banquet i hear is all for them must be good noble people to rear such a fine man like

00:54:32the duke we must make a good impression

00:54:55how did those peasants get in

00:55:03this banquet i've arranged it all for you i'll introduce you to everyone shortly

00:55:09our third don't just what do you mean for us mother i'm serious this is all for you but

00:55:50tell the same i knew those ill-bred dogs would go away that easily scoundrels all mrs moore rest easy

00:56:01this banquet is held on the duke's orders and father asked me to see that our guests enjoy themselves

00:56:08i have every authority to throw them out

00:56:14come

00:56:14who let you in

00:56:29who let you in you must be lost peasant this is the duke's banquet

00:56:34not the gruel kitchen i suggest you turn around immediately and i suggest you shut your mouth

00:56:49here and you you must be the bitch that john was engaged to i'll have you know john is going to be a

00:56:59noble you'll have no way into his home unless you'd like to be our maid once we marry lowborn as i may be

00:57:09i'm still more noble than a harlot like you you wench i will not let you talk to lady adela like this

00:57:16apologize right now i owe her nothing of the sort she is the one who's courting an engaged man i told your

00:57:24parents and your disgusting beggar of a brother i called off the engagement you're not good enough

00:57:32for me you're wrong it's you who isn't good enough for me i would never marry a man with such a fickle

00:57:38heart who would abandon his fiancee just to chase after some harlot's coin

00:57:43you dirty bitch that's what you get for talking to my son like that

00:57:54how dare you raise your hands to my daughter how dare she insult my son you're right mother

00:58:17doesn't besides this useless beggar of a brother do not insult my brother he is more noble than any of you

00:58:25all this dirty work must have done you in a beggar like him you lowly peasants none of you deserve to

00:58:42talk to us get out or we'll throw you out with force get out or we'll throw you out with force it is you

00:58:52want to be thrown out

00:58:58hmm what a pretty money sucking leech i would tell her i'm disgusted by the implication
