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.
00:00:11Please.
00:00:13I 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.
00:01:04Mama.
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, sweetie.
00:01:21We 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.
00:01:34Bye.
00:01:34Bye.
00:01:35Bye.
00:01:35Bye.
00:01:36Bye.
00:01:36Bye.

00:01:38Bye.
00:01:38Bye.
00:01:39Bye.
00:01:39Bye.
00:01:40Bye.
00:01:40Bye.
00:01:41Bye.
00:01:41Bye.
00:01:42Bye.
00:01:42Bye.
00:01:42Bye.
00:01:43Bye.
00:01:44Bye.
00:01:45Bye.
00:01:46Bye.

00:01:51Bye.
00:01:52Bye.
00:01:53Bye.
00:01:54Bye.
00:01:55Bye.
00:01:56Every man must stand and fight.
00:01:59Take him.
00:02:00Bye.
00:02:01Stop.
00:02:02No, I'm only 13.
00:02:03Let me go!
00:02:04Mama!
00:02:06Arthur.
00:02:07Arthur.
00:02:09Arthur should be here by now.
00:02:13Where is he?
00:02:15Arthur.
00:02:16Arthur!
00:02:19Arthur!
00:02:30Mom!
00:02:46We're...
00:02:48Have you seen my son?
00:02:54Have you seen Arthur?
00:02:56The baronsmen 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.
00:03:04No.
00:03:05It...
00:03:06Jane!
00:03:17You're hurt!
00:03:19Carl!
00:03:20They 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?
00:03:30You seen a boy?
00:03:31You seen Arthur?
00:03:31You seen 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.
00:03:54The law says that no boy should be conscripted unless he's 16 years old.
00:03:57Arthur's 13.
00:03:59Please!
00:03:59Please!
00:03:59If you didn't want him gone, you should have kept him at home.
00:04:07You have no one to blame but yourself.
00:04:10It's all my fault.
00:04:11I killed him.
00:04:13I 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.
00:04:24We can't just kill as we wish.
00:04:27Comet 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.
00:04:47Arthur.
00:04:48Arthur.
00:04:51Where are you?
00:04:52Gary's son.
00:05:18I have a feeling I know why you're here.
00:05:31Your Majesty, nothing escapes you.
00:05:34Nothing does escape me, which is why I've already sent word out to Stamford.
00:05:39You'll oversee the building of a new fort to strengthen our borders.
00:05:44The Baron of Stamford will host you until the completion of the project.
00:05:48But Your Majesty, my duty as a Duke is to protect...
00:05:51Go, go.
00:05:54Go, my boy.
00:05:56You fought enough battles for me and did a great service to the Kingdom of Mercia.
00:06:03This is why I gave you the title of Duke.
00:06:08Go back to Stamford.
00:06:10Find your family.
00:06:12They would be so proud to see the man you've become.
00:06:17And while you're at it, build me that castle, eh?
00:06:22I won't let you down, sir.
00:06:24I miss you.
00:06:34Robert, my sweet nephew, here.
00:06:37All my wages.
00:06:41I'm depending on you.
00:06:43You work for the Baron now, so please help me find your cousin.
00:06:47I beg of you.
00:06:47Aunt Jane, my connections are expensive.
00:06:53I'll look into it, but not today.
00:06:55The Duke is coming to Stamford.
00:06:57Everything has to be perfect.
00:07:00The Duke is coming.
00:07:02Robert, maybe you can ask the Duke to help me find my son.
00:07:06I've heard that the Duke is a great knight in battle, so perhaps you could ask him to see if he recognizes this boy with his necklace.
00:07:13Maybe he knows my Arthur.
00:07:15Have you lost your wits?
00:07:17Ask the Duke for help.
00:07:19Who do you think you are?
00:07:21Even the Baron wouldn't dare trouble the Duke for such trifles.
00:07:25Robert, please just have him take a look.
00:07:28It'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, you would help me find my son.
00:07:56I told you, not today.
00:08:00The Duke could be here any second.
00:08:02Get lost before he sees your ugly face.
00:08:08The Duke is here.
00:08:10Go.
00:08:11Get.
00:08:22That's the Duke.
00:08:23He's the one that defeated the Five Kingdoms.
00:08:26A king treats me like a son.
00:08:29A king treats me like a son.
00:08:56Presenting his grace, the Duke of Mercia.
00:09:16Welcome, 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?
00:09:23Your 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.
00:09:44But my mother, she wore a pendant like this.
00:09:53May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.
00:09:59Could this be me?
00:10:10Find who this belongs to.
00:10:11I will see to this personally.
00:10:16Mom, where are you?
00:10:19The 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,
00:10:39then there's a chance that possibly the Duke is my author.
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.
00:11:03I must see the Duke.
00:11:06Have you lost your mind?
00:11:18I just want to make sure he's my Arthur.
00:11:28Did 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.
00:12:02I swear that was my son.
00:12:05That was Arthur.
00:12:05You 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.
00:12:20I swear that...
00:12:21Do you mean to get us all hung?
00:12:27Calling the Duke your son?
00:12:29What an insult to that fine gentleman.
00:12:32Please.
00:12:33Just let me speak to him.
00:12:36Let me show him this.
00:12:49Robert!
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.
00:13:02Give me that back.
00:13:03I 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.
00:13:11What you've done.
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.
00:13:27You know what?
00:13:27I gave all of my wages so 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.
00:13:51Mother, no!
00:14:00Mother, no!
00:14:04Mother, no!
00:14:06Mother, no!
00:14:07Come, Mother.
00:14:11Let's go.
00:14:14Oh, Anna, what have I done?
00:14:16We'll never be able to find Arthur.
00:14:17Are you sure enough with this?
00:14:18It's all right, Mother.
00:14:20Have you forgotten?
00:14:21I carry one, too.
00:14:24Oh, my God.
00:14:25Now, 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.
00:14:51Oh, forgive me, Your Grace.
00:15:11Useless 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.
00:15:30Why does she seem so familiar?
00:15:37The scene is that I have someone the Duke might want.
00:15:43How could Robert do this to you?
00:15:47He'd beat you.
00:15:49You're his aunt for crying out loud.
00:15:52Oh, Carl, you 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.
00:16:29Father.
00:16:31What did the Duke say?
00:16:32Did he...
00:16:35Mother.
00:16:37What?
00:16:39I 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.
00:16:51I'm so sorry.
00:16:54I thought it was him.
00:16:56I wanted to come back and give you the necklace.
00:16:59I know at least you'll sleep easier.
00:17:01Knowing this is by your side.
00:17:08Oh.
00:17:13Oh.
00:17:14Your 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.
00:17:28See if anything can jog my memory.
00:17:31Yes, your grace.
00:17:41Well, 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.
00:18:40But 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.
00:18:58Just sign here and you'll receive 20 gold pieces.
00:19:04As 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.
00:19:14No, if Arthur returns, how will he find his way home?
00:19:19She's right.
00:19:19We won't give up our land.
00:19:21Not for 20 gold coins.
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.
00:19:52Carl, 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.
00:20:03This place really does feel so familiar.
00:20:14What?
00:20:15What are you doing?
00:20:21I'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.
00:20:36Sign it now.
00:20:38No.
00:20:39No.
00:20:39Stop it.
00:20:51Stop it.
00:20:52That's an order.
00:21:01What'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, constricted by the Baron's soldiers.
00:22:13If we leave, he'll never find his way back.
00:22:17Please.
00:22:18Please.
00:22:19Please, I beg of you.
00:22:24Is this pinned?
00:22:25Yes.
00:22:26If it was a token, a promise, then my children and I would always be a family together.
00:22:32This one is for you, Arthur.
00:22:42What?
00:22:54Mother.
00:22:54Arthur.
00:22:55Arthur.
00:22:58Oh, is it you?
00:23:00It's me, Mom.
00:23:01Mom.
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've come back to us.
00:23:12I'm sorry.
00:23:14I've been a bad son.
00:23:15But I promise, I will give you the life you deserve from here on out.
00:23:20Please forgive me.
00:23:22Can 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 Arthur 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.
00:23:49Wandering around, starving and desperate.
00:23:53I don't care what you say, but 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.
00:24:12Fool.
00:24:15No, Robert, surely you understand.
00:24:17You're family.
00:24:19We'd like to celebrate.
00:24:20This lowlife 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 fiance so you can beg for her forgiveness instead?
00:24:38Remember, 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!
00:24:47This is a joyous day, and I do not wish to spend a squabbling with you, Bilk.
00:25:01Kneel before us, apologize, and be gone.
00:25:05You son of a whore.
00:25:11I'm the Baron's butler.
00:25:12The highest on his staff.
00:25:14You think I'd kneel to a common maid?
00:25:18You better show your respect.
00:25:20Now will you go?
00:25:27You 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.
00:25:40But it was the Baron's orders.
00:25:42Your hovel must come down.
00:25:44Lord Benjamin's orders, was it?
00:25:46That's Baron Stamford to you.
00:25:49On the contrary, I 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?
00:26:13Lord Benjamin, sir.
00:26:14The Duke has dismissed his guards and gone on a stroll.
00:26:17Where to?
00:26:19Around when 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?
00:26:37Did 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?
00:26:59Do 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, please don't.
00:27:22Please don't.
00:27:22Lord Benjamin's cousin.
00:27:26Is this how he taught you to behave?
00:27:27Oh.
00:27:29I 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.
00:27:40Guards, seize him.
00:27:42No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:27:44Don't take off the police.
00:27:45He 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, no.
00:28:24Father.
00:28:25Take your hand out of 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.
00:28:37I don't know.
00:28:48What happened here?
00:28:50Lord 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?
00:29:03We 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.
00:29:23He's really...
00:29:24We have to try, Carl.
00:29:25Please.
00:29:27You're right.
00:29:28We have to just...
00:29:28You're right.
00:29:28We have to try.
00:29:29We have to find our son.
00:29:30What happened to that fire?
00:29:37That rage?
00:29:38Scared of the consequences now, runt?
00:29:40Consequences?
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.
00:29:56No, my lady.
00:29:58It's your family that's done for.
00:30:01I've made up my mind.
00:30:02I will not spare you.
00:30:05Me, needing sparing from you.
00:30:08You've gone mad.
00:30:14It 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.
00:30:22You insolent brat!
00:30:36What 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.
00:30:52You have...
00:30:55You have...
00:31:00Ah!
00:31:02Consider 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!
00:31:13You 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!
00:31:22Hold 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.
00:31:53Stop oinking once the Baron showed up, hmm?
00:31:56Your side of the Wellesley family is going to be dinner.
00:31:59Sir, this lowly villain is unfortunately my cousin.
00:32:04Just like his parents, they've no regard for your authority.
00:32:08That's right, Benjamin.
00:32:09That's right, Benjamin.
00:32:10What happened again?
00:32:11We had gone to the less fortunate Wellesley's to evict them, but he tried to stop us.
00:32:16So, Edith had him brought here to teach him a lesson.
00:32:19But it looks like he hasn't learned anything.
00:32:21Oh, 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.
00:32:30For me?
00:32:31You must punish him accordingly.
00:32:33As I was saying, the consequences of your actions.
00:32:38Oh!
00:32:39You fool.
00:32:40There will be consequences, all right.
00:32:43For you!
00:32:44What for, sir?
00:32:46Have I done something wrong, sir?
00:32:49I don't...
00:32:50Cousin, you misunderstand.
00:32:53There is no misunderstanding.
00:32:56Have 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.
00:33:12Get out of my sight, you pathetic woman.
00:33:18Duke of Mercia, your grace, pardon my tardiness.
00:33:23Duke?
00:33:26What 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?
00:33:36Don't question me.
00:33:40No.
00:33:41No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:33:43It's possible.
00:33:44How can you say you're the Duke?
00:33:46Shut it, Wellesley.
00:33:49You have no right to speak.
00:33:52That lowlife'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?
00:34:00Lord Vengeance, it seems that you've neglected your duties as Baron.
00:34:13Your people have shown me nothing but disdain.
00:34:16They take from the poor, torture your innocent, pillage and kill.
00:34:21Have you no order in Stanford?
00:34:24I'll have them punished for their wrongdoings.
00:34:27Their wrongdoings?
00:34:28I imagine then it was you who have allowed them to do this.
00:34:33And it is you who must be punished.
00:34:36Mercy, your grace.
00:34:38I'll have them flogged, exiled, punished to the extent of the law.
00:34:43Please, your grace, spare us.
00:34:46Cousin, it's my fault.
00:34:51See, your grace, I've been a fool.
00:34:55Punish me, flog me as you will, but let me live.
00:35:00We are from the same family, Duke Arthur.
00:35:04I 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.
00:35:15You must kill him or exile him.
00:35:19Please, I beg you, as your uncle, as your father's own brother.
00:35:24Oh, you're too cruel, Arthur.
00:35:27How can you do this to another Wellesley?
00:35:34Cruel?
00:35:35Have you forgotten your cruelty to mother and father?
00:35:38Threatening to leave them homeless and laughing in their face when they begged you?
00:35:42Have you forgotten what you've done to my parents?
00:35:45Your own brother and cousin Robert?
00:35:51What happened to making me see the consequences of my actions?
00:35:54Did you pity your poor cousin then?
00:35:56I've seen you for what you are.
00:35:59Shameless and wretched scum.
00:36:02You are unfit to live.
00:36:05Have them dealt with and think about what you've done.
00:36:09You're meant to be noble.
00:36:11Not only in your actions, but in your name.
00:36:14See that your people behave.
00:36:16Or I'll have your title removed.
00:36:18I will see to them personally.
00:36:20Oh, please.
00:36:22Oh, sir.
00:36:23Please.
00:36:24Robert deceived me.
00:36:26It's all his fault.
00:36:28Please, Duke Arthur.
00:36:29Spare me.
00:36:30I'll do anything for you.
00:36:33Egypt.
00:36:34What are you doing?
00:36:37You villain.
00:36:38If it weren't for you, I never would have gotten involved with this mess.
00:36:42I'm calling out her engagement.
00:36:44From this moment onward, I'll have nothing to do with you.
00:36:47I beg of you, O Great and Honorable Duke.
00:36:49Forgive me.
00:36:51Don't you want to see what I have to offer?
00:36:56Save it, Sloth.
00:36:57Lord Benjamin.
00:36:59Make sure these vermin never cross my path again.
00:37:04They make me sick.
00:37:10Gods!
00:37:11Lock them up.
00:37:12Cousin, please!
00:37:13Won't you speak to him?
00:37:15Just let me go!
00:37:16I won't ever do it again!
00:37:18No!
00:37:20No!
00:37:21No!
00:37:22Sir!
00:37:23Please!
00:37:24Please!
00:37:25Please!
00:37:26No!
00:37:32In good news, Benjamin.
00:37:33I found my parents.
00:37:35That is wonderful, Your Grace.
00:37:37What a blessed day it is.
00:37:39I wish to host a banquet tonight.
00:37:41Introduce my parents to upper society.
00:37:45Life has been cruel to them.
00:37:47And...
00:37:48I wish for them to live happily.
00:37:50Oh!
00:37:51And my sister, too.
00:37:52Anna.
00:37:53I want to do something special for her as well.
00:37:55Did you just say, Anna?
00:37:58It's in 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.
00:38:17No!
00:38:18It's in the maid, Anna.
00:38:19It's in the maid, Anna.
00:38:20Right.
00:38:21Anna.
00:38:22She works here, doesn't she?
00:38:23Bring me to her.
00:38:24No, Your Grace.
00:38:25I...
00:38:26What?
00:38:27I thought...
00:38:28I thought that you fancied her, so I...
00:38:29What have you done?
00:38:30Bring me to her right now!
00:38:31You have fine features for a scullery maid.
00:38:32I can see why he likes you.
00:38:33Mr. Crowley, did you need something?
00:38:34Yes, pet.
00:38:35You've been chosen.
00:38:36You've been chosen.
00:38:37Yes, pet.
00:38:38You've been chosen.
00:38:39You 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.
00:39:03Take off your clothes.
00:39:10What are you going to do to me?
00:39:12Oh, don't worry. I have no interest in you.
00:39:15I wouldn't dare.
00:39:19Put 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, a 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.
00:39:49You don't have a choice.
00:39:52Baron's orders.
00:39:56Do you even know who you are serving?
00:39:58It is the Duke, the one you poured tea on.
00:40:02What? The 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.
00:40:14It's a good opportunity, dammit.
00:40:18Mr. Crowley, I'm the troll type.
00:40:21I 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?
00:40:42Serve the Duke, and the money's yours.
00:40:46You'll have no short supply of expensive little trinkets.
00:40:50I would never sell my body, not for a few coppers, not for anything.
00:41:05I am a woman of honor.
00:41:07Honor is for people who deserve it, not a lowly whore like you.
00:41:12You don't get to say no!
00:41:25Oh my God, please!
00:41:27Hands off!
00:41:29Oh no!
00:41:30You don't get to say no!
00:41:31Oh my God, please!
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...
00:41:50Have you no shame acting like this in my manner?
00:41:55Surrey, 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 the lowly scullery maid.
00:42:13She was out of line!
00:42:16A lowly maid?
00:42:19Mark my words, she'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?
00:42:37Yes, Anna.
00:42:38I've come back to protect you, and mother, and father.
00:42:43Arthur!
00:42:44Where have you been all these years?
00:42:46You missed you terribly.
00:42:48There, there.
00:42:51Let me deal with this man first.
00:42:52Once 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, Duke, 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!
00:43:35He 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!
00:43:46No!
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, 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.
00:44:06Oh, 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.
00:44:13Anna, stay here.
00:44:16I'll bring them here.
00:44:18Okay?
00:44:20Duke Arthur, I believe that your parents are currently at 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.
00:44:37I want to show our parents high society.
00:44:41And invite John Moore.
00:44:43I'll speak to the king.
00:44:45See if he can grant him a noble title.
00:44:50As you wish, Duke Arthur.
00:44:51Is that 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.
00:45:13You tottering fool.
00:45:23John!
00:45:24Why have you come back?
00:45:28John, this is your fiancé's father.
00:45:31You 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.
00:45:59Your 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.
00:46:14We'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 caja and take him out of here.
00:46:37I'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.
00:46:55Father, mother, Robert's been punished for what he did to you.
00:47:01You must be the son I keep hearing so much about.
00:47:04Weren'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.
00:47:12Now, did I hear you say you wanted to have my father beaten?
00:47:19So what if I did?
00:47:21What's a runt like you going to do about it anyway?
00:47:25Cry?
00:47:26Piss your pants?
00:47:28Say that again.
00:47:29If you think I'm going to take it easy on you because you're engaged to my sister, then you'd be wrong.
00:47:41Let go of me, you dirty dog.
00:47:48Resulting to violence now, are we?
00:47:50Like 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?
00:48:01Who 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.
00:48:32No 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.
00:48:46Don'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.
00:48:54As duly 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?
00:49:05Oh, I see.
00:49:06You're that boy that was kidnapped as a child.
00:49:09Well, then.
00:49:11Be 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.
00:49:28Oh, I can't believe I've been touched by a dirty beggar.
00:49:33Have you no manners around 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.
00:49:46My father is the Baron of Stamford.
00:49:50And now that you're all here, let it be known.
00:49:53I am not going to marry Anna.
00:49:56I 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.
00:50:08Get lost, you blood-sucking leech.
00:50:10Leeching off of him?
00:50:11I would never.
00:50:14His money is as vile as his word.
00:50:18No matter.
00:50:20A 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.
00:50:39We cannot anger.
00:50:41Mr. Moore, he'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.
00:50:55We'll go.
00:50:57But best you remember,
00:50:59it is the Wellesleys who called off this engagement.
00:51:03Because you, John Moore,
00:51:06are unfit for my sister.
00:51:08John 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.
00:51:21Servant.
00:51:22Beggar.
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.
00:51:52Oh, that'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.
00:52:22It's been paid for.
00:52:24At the Baron's Manor?
00:52:25Arthur, we...
00:52:26Haven't you heard the Duke will be there?
00:52:29We can't possibly impose.
00:52:31It's...
00:52:31Like I said, Mother,
00:52:33don't worry.
00:52:35You'll see.
00:52:36Oh.
00:52:37Oh.
00:52:37Lady Adela,
00:52:48this 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 Stamford,
00:52:57my father is very close to the Duke.
00:53:00It's likely he was the one to recommend John
00:53:02in the first place.
00:53:04Of 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,
00:53:14no doubt about it.
00:53:17I've been meaning to ask, Adela.
00:53:18Why would someone like the Duke
00:53:20come to Stamford in the first place?
00:53:22Well, Stamford is his hometown.
00:53:25The king dispatched him here
00:53:26to 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.
00:53:33Even 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.
00:53:44Mm-hmm.
00:53:45How 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 low-lives.
00:54:59They must have tailed us in.
00:55:01I 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.
00:55:27Who let you in?
00:55:38Who let you in?
00:55:40You must be lost, peasant.
00:55:42This is the Duke's banquet,
00:55:44not the gruel kitchen.
00:55:45I suggest you turn around immediately.
00:55:48And I suggest you shut your mouth.
00:55:50This 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.
00:56:31I told your parents
00:56:34and your disgusting beggar of a brother
00:56:36I 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 fiance
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.
00:57:01How 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.
00:57:22What 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.
00:57:43All 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.
00:57:56Get 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.
00:58:13I would tell her I am disgusted by the implication.
00:58:19Despite her features, a maid that cleans chamber parts all day is more fit to marry a stable boy.
00:58:26Say that again and I'll make you pay.
00:58:29Oh no.
00:58:31What are you going to do?
00:58:33Hit me?
00:58:34Well, come on then.
00:58:36Have at it.
00:58:41Well, I do say I think this was the first time I 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 for it.
00:58:55I obliged.
00:58:56Lord Benjamin, the 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 and 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 just because you followed us in.
00:59:34You've no right to speak to my son or Lady Adela like this.
00:59:38Don't you know how much I suffered being 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, yet you shameless rats won't stop bothering us.
00:59:54Away!
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!
01:00:08Execute him!
01:00:08No!
01:00:09I want to watch as they lose their precious son again.
01:00:14Oh, Lady Adela, I think if that's the case, we 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.
01:00:31Pardon us.
01:00:32Arthur.
01:00:33Please, I beg of you, apologize.
01:00:36Please.
01:00:37You've enough wit to be scared, but it's too late.
01:00:41It'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.
01:00:55I already told you.
01:00:56This banquet is for you.
01:00:58In honor of us all being together again.
01:01:00You have every right to enjoy yourself.
01:01:03If my sister was correct, you ought to apologize for your poor behavior, and I ought to have
01:01:07you thrown out.
01:01:09Soon, you'll be kneeling before us, begging for the forgiveness.
01:01:12We have every right to withhold.
01:01:14A 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.
01:01:26Oh, yes.
01:01:30Happy.
01:01:31Very 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.
01:01:43No.
01:01:43Please, 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, whose authority
01:02:00is second only to the king.
01:02:02You poor, poor souls.
01:02:04We'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.
01:02:15Of course, Lady Adela.
01:02:17It'd be an honor for him to lay eyes on the gentlemen before he crushes them like the
01:02:22rats they are.
01:02:24Oh, no.
01:02:25I can't wait.
01:02:27How unfortunate it had to come to this.
01:02:29Yes.
01:02:30How unfortunate it is for you.
01:02:33Lord Benjamin is my father.
01:02:35And once I tell him what you've done to me and my dear John, he'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 caudges.
01:02:50And you, harlot.
01:02:53Any 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.
01:03:28And I did not wish to taint it with strife and bloodshed.
01:03:32I would have let you go.
01:03:33As awful as your behavior was to me.
01:03:36But you insulted my virtuous sister, 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 in the dungeon.
01:04:04What's this again about the dungeons?
01:04:13Lord 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.
01:04:21This 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.
01:04:38Lowly, dirty servants?
01:04:40Yes, 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 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.
01:05:07Silence!
01:05:08But Lord Benjamin, why?
01:05:12Duke of Mercia, Arthur.
01:05:14Your Grace, at your service.
01:05:18Held in his grace, the Duke, Arthur.
01:05:29What?
01:05:31That's him?
01:05:33He's Duke Arthur?
01:05:38That's him?
01:05:39He's Duke Arthur?
01:05:42Lord Benjamin, I was promised a warm welcome.
01:05:46What is all of this?
01:05:48I'll see to it, Your Grace.
01:05:50My boy.
01:05:51What did the parents say?
01:05:53Is it Duke Arthur that he just called you?
01:05:56What?
01:05:56Sir, Madam, please.
01:06:02Benjamin, at your service.
01:06:05I don't understand.
01:06:07Are you really?
01:06:08Yes, Father.
01:06:10What?
01:06:12I'm the Duke.
01:06:13My book?
01:06:15The Duke?
01:06:15That's my son.
01:06:18That's my son.
01:06:19He's a 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?
01:07:04Father, I...
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.
01:07:27He can't be.
01:07:28He can't be the Duke.
01:07:29He simply can't be.
01:07:33Your Grace.
01:07:34I 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 scoff at.
01:07:49Mother.
01:07:50My brother-in-law.
01:07:51A Duke.
01:07:52Will 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.
01:08:14A 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 fiancé, 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 fiancé.
01:08:29Fiancé.
01:08:30Have you forgotten what you just called me?
01:08:33A dirty whore?
01:08:35Only fit to wet his 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 husband's temperaments.
01:08:50My sister.
01:08:51Petty.
01:08:52That's rich coming from you.
01:08:54Oh, Duke Arthur.
01:08:56My brother.
01:08:58I 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.
01:09:05The woman has spoken, John.
01:09:07It seems my sister disdains your vile habits.
01:09:11Anna, this is all my fault.
01:09:13We 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!
01:09:36I 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.
01:09:53You're better than this.
01:09:57Please, forgive me.
01:09:59You're better than this.
01:10:03Leave my sister alone, scum.
01:10:05Your apology means nothing.
01:10:07Please.
01:10:08Your 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.
01:10:14Mr. Westerly.
01:10:17Madam.
01:10:18Please 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 that 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'd just please forgive my one transgression.
01:10:56How 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.
01:11:43You are a shameless, filthy villain.
01:11:47Be gone.
01:11:50Lord 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.
01:12:02And forbid anyone from doing business with them in the town of Stanford.
01:12:07Yes, sir.
01:12:08Yes, sir.
01:12:08Much better.
01:12:15Father.
01:12:16Mother.
01:12:19Anna.
01:12:20Let us enjoy this banquet in peace.
01:12:23Arthur.
01:12:24This banquet is lovely.
01:12:28But nothing is better than us being reunited as a family.
01:12:34And together we'll be forever.
01:12:37Forever.
