00:00:00He is taken by the Baron to the war.
00:00:02We must find him.
00:00:04Presenting his grace, the Duke of Mercia.
00:00:07I've returned to find my family.
00:00:09The Duke is coming.
00:00:10This is the Duke, second in authority only to the king.
00:00:14Your son is not coming back.
00:00:17No!
00:00:18Because he's dead.
00:00:20It's your own fault you lost your son.
00:00:23I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.
00:00:25He didn't recognize the necklace.
00:00:27Your land has been sealed.
00:00:29No, this is our family home!
00:00:31Sign it, now!
00:00:32No.
00:00:33Stop it!
00:00:37Your son was taken, you say?
00:00:38Could this be me?
00:00:40My memories are faint, cladded by the injury I sustained during the war.
00:00:43Say goodbye to your son.
00:00:45That woman...
00:00:46Possibly the Duke is my Arthur.
00:00:49The Duke of Mercia
00:00:55Once upon a time, the kingdom of Mercia is at war.
00:00:59Every man must stand and fight.
00:01:02No!
00:01:03No!
00:01:04No!
00:01:05No!
00:01:06No!
00:01:07Please!
00:01:08Please!
00:01:09I don't want to go to war!
00:01:10Spare me!
00:01:11I'm scared, Arthur.
00:01:12Will they take you and Papa away too?
00:01:14No, they won't.
00:01:15Okay?
00:01:16I got something for both of you.
00:01:17I had these blessed by the church today.
00:01:20This one is for you, Arthur.
00:01:23And this one, Anna, is for you.
00:01:25May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.
00:01:45Thank you, Mom.
00:01:48I love you.
00:01:51Mama?
00:01:52Yes?
00:01:53My belly hurts.
00:01:54I think I need to go potty.
00:01:56I see.
00:01:58Yes, I...
00:01:59Wait, Mama.
00:02:01It's Papa's birthday today.
00:02:03I was wondering if I could have some coins
00:02:05so I could get a little, little bit of beef.
00:02:09Just a little bit.
00:02:15I'm sorry, sweetie.
00:02:17We can't afford beef.
00:02:19Maybe we could have a chicken.
00:02:22Your favorite chicken pie.
00:02:24Huzzah!
00:02:25Thank you, Mom.
00:02:26I love you.
00:02:27I love you.
00:02:29Bye!
00:02:45Every man must stand and fight.
00:02:54Take him.
00:02:56Stop!
00:02:57No, I'm only 13!
00:02:59Let me go!
00:03:00Mama!
00:03:06Arthur.
00:03:09Arthur should be here by now.
00:03:11Where is he?
00:03:13Arthur!
00:03:14Arthur!
00:03:15Arthur!
00:03:26Mom!
00:03:27Mom!
00:03:41Wait.
00:03:43Have you seen my son?
00:03:49Have you seen Arthur?
00:03:51The baronsmen took him.
00:03:52What?
00:03:53They're marching him to the border.
00:03:55They're sending him to war.
00:03:56No!
00:03:57No!
00:03:58No!
00:03:59No!
00:04:00He...
00:04:11Kate!
00:04:12Ah!
00:04:13You're hurt!
00:04:14Girl!
00:04:15They took him!
00:04:16What?
00:04:17We have to get him!
00:04:18He's only 13.
00:04:19He won't survive on the battlefield.
00:04:22We...
00:04:23Let's go.
00:04:24He...
00:04:25No?
00:04:26Have you seen a boy?
00:04:27Have you seen Arthur?
00:04:28He's our son?
00:04:29Right here with...
00:04:30With soldier people.
00:04:31Hey!
00:04:32Are you soldiers with the Baron?
00:04:33Have you seen a boy?
00:04:34How strong lad?
00:04:35Brown hair?
00:04:36About this tall?
00:04:37The boy we took from the market, is it?
00:04:38Yes.
00:04:39Yes.
00:04:40Yes, that's him.
00:04:41Where is he?
00:04:42Your boy is either dead or going to be soon.
00:04:44He...
00:04:45He can't be.
00:04:46You're lying.
00:04:47Away with you, woman!
00:04:48Give me back my son!
00:04:49The law says that no boy should be conscripted unless he's 16 years old.
00:04:53Arthur's 13!
00:04:54Please!
00:04:55If you didn't want him gone, you should have kept him at home!
00:05:02You have no one to blame but yourself!
00:05:04It's all my fault I killed him.
00:05:07I should never have let him go to the butchers by himself.
00:05:10It's...
00:05:11Shut up, wench!
00:05:12Or I'll make you join him real soon!
00:05:17Comet, now!
00:05:18Foolish as they are!
00:05:19We can't just kill as we wish!
00:05:21Comet boy from filth like you!
00:05:24He was doomed from the moment he met us!
00:05:33He's right.
00:05:34It's all my fault I shouldn't have let him go.
00:05:37You mustn't do this to yourself.
00:05:39We will bring our boy home.
00:05:42Arthur...
00:05:46Where are you?
00:05:54There!
00:05:55...
00:06:04There!
00:06:05There!
00:06:07There!
00:06:08There!
00:06:09There!
00:06:11I have a feeling I know why you're here.
00:06:26Your Majesty, nothing escapes you.
00:06:29Nothing does escape me, which is why I've already sent word out to Stamford.
00:06:34You'll oversee the building of a new fort to strengthen our borders.
00:06:38The Baron of Stamford will host you until the completion of the project.
00:06:43But your Majesty, my duty as a duke is to protect-
00:06:45Go, go.
00:06:48Go, my boy.
00:06:51You fought enough battles for me and did a great service to the Kingdom of Mercia.
00:06:57This is why I gave you the title of Duke.
00:07:02Go back to Stamford.
00:07:05Find your family.
00:07:07They would be so proud to see the man you've become.
00:07:11And while you're at it, build me that castle, eh?
00:07:18I won't let you down, sir.
00:07:26I miss you.
00:07:28Robert, my sweet nephew, here.
00:07:32All my wages.
00:07:34I'm depending on you.
00:07:36You work for the Baron now, so please help me find your cousin, I beg of you.
00:07:42Aunt Jane, my connections are expensive.
00:07:47I'll look into it, but not today.
00:07:49The duke is coming to Stamford.
00:07:51Everything has to be perfect.
00:07:53The duke is coming.
00:07:55Robert, maybe you can ask the duke if-
00:07:57To help me find my son.
00:07:59I've heard that the duke is a great knight in battle,
00:08:01so perhaps you could ask him to see if he recognizes this boy with his necklace.
00:08:07Maybe he knows my Arthur.
00:08:09Have you lost your wits?
00:08:12Ask the duke for help.
00:08:14Who do you think you are?
00:08:15Even the Baron wouldn't dare trouble the duke for such trifles.
00:08:20Robert, please, just have him take a look.
00:08:21It's your own fault you lost your son.
00:08:37Don't blame other people for your own negligence.
00:08:39It is my fault.
00:08:40I should have never let him out of my sight.
00:08:42I regret it every single day, but you promised that if I gave you all of my wages,
00:08:48you would help me find my son.
00:08:50I told you not today.
00:08:54The duke could be here any second.
00:08:57Get lost before he sees your ugly face.
00:09:03The duke is here.
00:09:04Go, get!
00:09:16That's the duke.
00:09:17He's the one that defeated the five kingdoms.
00:09:22The king treats him like a suck.
00:09:31The duke.
00:09:32The duke The duke.
00:09:33Go, get this.
00:09:33Come, God, let's escape.
00:09:35Go, get this.
00:09:36Go, go, go, go.
00:09:40Stand up, go.
00:09:41Turn up once in a while.
00:09:41Pull the ball?
00:09:42Come on.
00:09:43He'll find him later there.
00:09:45Get up.
00:09:45Presenting His Grace, the Duke of Mercia.
00:10:09Welcome, Your Grace.
00:10:11Lord Benjamin, there's no need for such formalities.
00:10:14We've known each other for a decade now, have we not?
00:10:17Your Grace, it was I who was sending you to the battlefield.
00:10:21I beg for your forgiveness.
00:10:23It was on the battlefield that I earned my honor.
00:10:26You are too kind, Your Grace.
00:10:28I've returned to find my family.
00:10:30Well, please tell me who they are and where they reside.
00:10:33I shall have them brought here at once.
00:10:35My memories are faint, clouded by the injury I sustained during the war.
00:10:40But my mother, she wore a pendant like this.
00:10:44May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.
00:11:01Could this be me?
00:11:04Find who this belongs to.
00:11:05I will see to this personally.
00:11:07Mom, where are you?
00:11:15The Duke of Mercia has come to the Baron's Manor.
00:11:20The king must hold him in high regard.
00:11:23They say he's looking for his family.
00:11:25Who could be so lucky as to be the Duke's relative?
00:11:28Pardon to interrupt, but, well, if he's here visiting his family, then there's a chance that possibly the Duke is my author.
00:11:40Don't be stupid.
00:11:42This is the Duke, second in authority only to the king.
00:11:46How could a man like that be your son?
00:11:49Your son probably died on the battlefield.
00:11:51Stop being delusional.
00:11:56No.
00:11:57I must see the Duke.
00:12:00Have you lost your mind?
00:12:02I just want to make sure he's my Arthur.
00:12:22Arthur?
00:12:24I just want to make sure he's my Arthur.
00:12:30Did someone call my name just now?
00:12:35Your Grace, it's probably just the wind playing tricks.
00:12:38No one here would dare to speak your name so boldly.
00:12:46What were you thinking?
00:12:48Your actions will bring my family down with you.
00:12:51Robert just became butler.
00:12:53I won't have you ruining things for him.
00:12:56I swear that was my son, that was Arthur.
00:12:59You have truly gone mad.
00:13:02That was the Duke, the second most important man in the entire kingdom.
00:13:07How could a man of such standing be your son?
00:13:12He looked just like him.
00:13:14I swear that...
00:13:18Do you mean to get us all hung, calling the Duke your son?
00:13:23What an insult to that fine gentleman.
00:13:26Please, just let me speak to him.
00:13:29Let me show him this.
00:13:43Robert!
00:13:45Robert!
00:13:46Don't!
00:13:47Not while the Duke is here!
00:13:49Robert!
00:13:50What are you doing to my mother?
00:13:53Anna!
00:13:56Give me that back I needed to find Arthur.
00:13:58Worthless piece of junk.
00:14:00Robert, we're family.
00:14:02We're supposed to help each other.
00:14:04What you've done?
00:14:06Family?
00:14:07It's bad enough that we share the same blood.
00:14:11My son has risen up through the ranks, while yours only grows poorer and poorer.
00:14:18It's pathetic, really.
00:14:20You know what?
00:14:21I gave all of my wages so that you could find Arthur and you...
00:14:28You never even planned to find Arthur.
00:14:31You never even thought to look for him.
00:14:33You liar!
00:14:34You cheat!
00:14:36Give me back my coin!
00:14:38Don't touch me with your filthy hands!
00:14:41And this?
00:14:42Say goodbye to your son.
00:14:49No!
00:14:50No!
00:14:52Mother!
00:14:53Mother, no!
00:14:58Mother, no!
00:14:59Mother, no!
00:15:03Come, Mother.
00:15:04Let's go.
00:15:07Oh, Anna, what have I done?
00:15:09We'll never be able to find Arthur, not with this.
00:15:12It's all right.
00:15:13It's all right, Mother.
00:15:14Have you forgotten?
00:15:15I carry one, too.
00:15:19Now, if you truly believe the Duke might be our Arthur, I'll see what I can do.
00:15:34Arthur, my brother, could it really be you?
00:15:39Your grace, my Lord.
00:15:40Oh, oh!
00:15:41Forgive me, your grace.
00:15:42Useless girl!
00:15:43No!
00:15:44No!
00:15:45No!
00:15:46Oh!
00:15:47Oh, forgive me, your grace!
00:15:48Oh!
00:15:49Oh, Oh!
00:15:50Oh, forgive me, your grace!
00:15:58A-o-o-o-o-o-o!
00:16:03Oh!
00:16:04Un-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!
00:16:05Oh, oh, oh.
00:16:06Useless girl!
00:16:09Your Grace, are you alright?
00:16:12I'm fine with Benjamin.
00:16:14No need to punish her for a simple mistake.
00:16:17Your kindness humbles us all.
00:16:20Well, don't just sit there!
00:16:23Clean yourself up!
00:16:27Why does she seem so familiar?
00:16:30Seems that I have someone the Duke might want.
00:16:35How could Robert do this to you?
00:16:40He beat you.
00:16:42You're his aunt for crying out loud.
00:16:45Oh, Carl.
00:16:47You know your family has always been cruel to us.
00:16:50It's only gonna get worse now that Robert is butler to the Baron.
00:16:56Mother?
00:16:58Father?
00:17:00This place is so familiar to me.
00:17:04And it's strategic.
00:17:07I'll build the new fort here.
00:17:09See to it that all the families along this road are asked to leave.
00:17:12And compensate them well.
00:17:14I will start the process right away.
00:17:17Mother.
00:17:18Yeah.
00:17:19What did the Duke say?
00:17:20Did he...
00:17:21Mother.
00:17:22What?
00:17:23I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.
00:17:24No.
00:17:25He does.
00:17:26He does resemble him, yes.
00:17:27But he didn't recognize the necklace.
00:17:28No.
00:17:29I'm so sorry.
00:17:30I thought it was him.
00:17:31I wanted to come back and give you the necklace.
00:17:32I know at least you'll sleep easier knowing this is by your side.
00:17:36Thank you, Hannah.
00:17:37Oh.
00:17:38Thank you, Hannah.
00:17:39Oh.
00:17:40Oh.
00:17:41Oh.
00:17:42Oh.
00:17:43Your Grace, I dare say you look as handsome as ever.
00:17:46These clothes are much more comfortable.
00:17:47It's not broken.
00:17:48I am not and not.
00:17:49I can't relax.
00:17:50I'm sorry.
00:17:51I know I'm sorry.
00:17:52I thought it was him.
00:17:53I wanted to come back and give you the necklace.
00:17:54I know at least you'll sleep easier knowing this is by your side.
00:17:57Thank you, Hannah.
00:17:59Oh.
00:18:00Oh.
00:18:07Oh, Your Grace.
00:18:08I dare say you look as handsome as ever.
00:18:11These clothes are much more comfortable.
00:18:19Leave me.
00:18:20I wish to explore the city by myself.
00:18:22See if anything can jog my memory.
00:18:24Yes, your grace.
00:18:33Well, it must be Anna.
00:18:35She must have forgot something.
00:18:35Anna?
00:18:45What are you all doing here?
00:18:49Especially after what you did to my wife?
00:18:50Long time no see, brother.
00:18:52Still living in this hovel, huh?
00:18:54Would you like some bread?
00:18:57We were just about to sit down for lunch.
00:18:59So I can offer you a fresh loaf.
00:19:02You call this food?
00:19:03The baron's dogs wouldn't eat this.
00:19:11But fortune favors the undeserving.
00:19:15Now you'll be able to buy some real food.
00:19:19What do you mean, Laura?
00:19:20Tell them, Robert.
00:19:22It really is a shack.
00:19:32But luckily it'll be gone soon.
00:19:35Your land has been seized.
00:19:37This entire street will be dug up to make way for the new fort.
00:19:40To bolster our defenses.
00:19:42The order came directly from the Duke himself.
00:19:45No.
00:19:45But you will be well compensated for the trouble.
00:19:50What?
00:19:50Just sign here and you'll receive 20 gold pieces.
00:19:56As your brother, I should be entitled to half.
00:19:59But as you have no son, and I have a son, I ought to take two thirds.
00:20:04What?
00:20:04No, this is our family home.
00:20:06What?
00:20:07No.
00:20:08If Arthur returns, how will he find his way home?
00:20:11She's right.
00:20:12We won't give up our land.
00:20:13Not for 20 gold coins.
00:20:14And not for nothing.
00:20:15Then you are dafter than I thought.
00:20:17Let me remind you, your son is not coming back because he's dead.
00:20:24No.
00:20:25No, no, no.
00:20:25You hold your tongue.
00:20:27Arthur will return.
00:20:28And when we remain here until he does, we won't give up hope.
00:20:31Not for any penny coin.
00:20:33You don't get a say.
00:20:35The order comes from above.
00:20:36Enough of this insolence.
00:20:38Leave my house at once.
00:20:39Leave my house.
00:20:39Carl.
00:20:43Carl.
00:20:43Carl, you're right.
00:20:47We are family.
00:20:49We are supposed to support each other.
00:20:51And if you can't do that, then leave.
00:20:53Then you've chosen death.
00:20:55So be it.
00:20:59This place really does feel so familiar.
00:21:06What?
00:21:06What are you doing?
00:21:09I'll tell you this one last time.
00:21:15Sign a damn contract or I'll beat you to death.
00:21:18You are his brother.
00:21:19How can you do this to him?
00:21:21No man as useless as him deserves to be my brother.
00:21:28Sign it now.
00:21:29Stop it.
00:21:43Stop it.
00:21:43Stop it.
00:21:44That's an order.
00:21:57What's a peasant like you doing here?
00:22:02Cross me and I'll beat you up too.
00:22:04You know who my son works for?
00:22:06The Baron.
00:22:07We're here to seize this land off his orders.
00:22:09So you better stay out of our affairs.
00:22:11So you're the Baron's henchman.
00:22:13I told him to see that every family is compensated fairly.
00:22:17And this is how you choose to do it?
00:22:26Good folks.
00:22:27You have my word.
00:22:28I will make this matter right.
00:22:30Lord Benjamin requests your land to build a new fort.
00:22:33But we will provide whatever is necessary for you.
00:22:36Do you know the Baron?
00:22:38Could you plead to him on our behalf, please?
00:22:40All we ask is that we remain here.
00:22:42We cannot leave our home, please.
00:22:44Rest assured, you'll be well compensated if you choose to depart.
00:22:49No, we don't want coin.
00:22:51This is my son's home.
00:22:53If it's torn down, he will never find his way home.
00:22:56Your son was taken, you say?
00:22:58Yes.
00:22:59He was only 13 years old.
00:23:01Taken far too young, conscripted by the Baron's soldiers.
00:23:04If we leave, he'll never find his way back.
00:23:09Please.
00:23:11Please, I beg of you.
00:23:16He's pinned.
00:23:17Yes.
00:23:18It was a token.
00:23:19A promise that my children and I would always be a family together.
00:23:24This one is for you, Arthur.
00:23:33What?
00:23:45Mother.
00:23:46Arthur.
00:23:49Oh, is it you?
00:23:51It's me, Mom.
00:23:53I've come home.
00:23:55My boy.
00:23:56Ten long years.
00:23:58We searched for you.
00:24:00And finally, you come back to us.
00:24:04I'm sorry.
00:24:05I've been a bad son.
00:24:07But I promise, I will give you the life you deserve from here on out.
00:24:12Please forgive me.
00:24:13Can we stop with the theatrics?
00:24:23Ten years have passed, and cousin Arthur returns as a peasant.
00:24:28I'd cry too if this were my son.
00:24:30Laura and George, do you see?
00:24:32Arthur has come home.
00:24:33What's there to cheer for?
00:24:35A beggar for a son?
00:24:36Or a thief, more likely.
00:24:39Look at him.
00:24:40Wandering around, starving and desperate.
00:24:44I don't care what you say.
00:24:46But my son has come home, and he is everything to me.
00:24:50Let's go inside, and I will make your favorite roast.
00:24:53And George and Laura, I would prefer if you left.
00:24:57We'd like to celebrate alone as a family.
00:25:00We're not leaving until you sign the contract, you useless fool.
00:25:04No, Robert, surely you understand.
00:25:09You're family.
00:25:10We'd like to celebrate.
00:25:11This low life doesn't deserve anything.
00:25:17I'm done arguing with you at this pigsty.
00:25:20Don't you point your finger at me.
00:25:22I could do much worse.
00:25:24Or do you want me to get my fiancee so you can beg for her forgiveness instead?
00:25:29Remember, I'm engaged to the prestigious Lady Edith.
00:25:33If she finds out about this, you'll all get a good beating.
00:25:37Go away!
00:25:42This is a joyous day, and I do not wish to spend it squabbling with you, Ilk.
00:25:52Kneel before us, apologize, and be gone.
00:25:59You son of a whore.
00:26:01I'm the Baron's butler.
00:26:03The highest on his staff.
00:26:05You think I'd kneel to a common maid?
00:26:09You better show your respect.
00:26:14Now will you go?
00:26:18You scum!
00:26:20I'll have you know just how much I am worth.
00:26:22Inform Lady Edith.
00:26:24Ask her to come, won't you?
00:26:25Yes, Mr. Wellesley.
00:26:27Well, well, well.
00:26:28You fools have chosen not to take the gold, but it was the Baron's orders.
00:26:33Your hovel must come down.
00:26:35Lord Benjamin's orders, was it?
00:26:37That's Baron Stamford to you.
00:26:40On the contrary.
00:26:41I think I can call him Benjamin just fine.
00:26:43Are you mad?
00:26:47Who do you think you are?
00:26:49The Duke pulling rank like you're anything special.
00:26:53I dare say I'm special enough that even Lord Benjamin would kneel before me.
00:26:58What's that I hear about the Baron?
00:27:04Lord Benjamin, sir.
00:27:05The Duke has dismissed his guards and gone on a stroll.
00:27:08Where to?
00:27:09Around where the families are being asked to relocate, sir.
00:27:12What?
00:27:13Well, I hope he doesn't run into the Wellesleys.
00:27:16Guards, come with me.
00:27:17What's that I hear about the Baron?
00:27:27Did I just hear someone disrespecting my cousin, the Baron of Stamford?
00:27:33I tried to pay these lowlifes with gold, but they refused to leave their pigsty, and their
00:27:40son even hit me.
00:27:45You scumbag.
00:27:46How dare you lay your dirty hands on my fiancée?
00:27:50Do you know who I am?
00:27:52Why would I care who you are?
00:27:54He hit my parents, so I hit him back.
00:27:57Sounds fair to me.
00:27:58You are in the town of Stamford, my cousin's jurisdiction, and Robert is his head butler.
00:28:04You'll pay for what you've done.
00:28:07Bring him to the dungeons.
00:28:08No.
00:28:09I'll teach him a lesson.
00:28:10No, no, no, no, please don't.
00:28:12Please don't.
00:28:14Lord Benjamin's cousin.
00:28:16Is this how he taught you to behave?
00:28:18Oh.
00:28:20I didn't expect a lowly peasant like you to know who my cousin is.
00:28:23Don't tell me he's spoken to you before.
00:28:26Of course.
00:28:27In fact, why don't you ask him who I am?
00:28:30That's enough.
00:28:31Guards, seize him.
00:28:32No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:28:34Don't take care of them, please.
00:28:36He just came back.
00:28:37Please don't.
00:28:38Let go of me.
00:28:40This is your last chance.
00:28:42Seize me, and you'll have to face the consequences of your crime.
00:28:45As if I'd fear anything from a runt like you.
00:28:48I could kill you right now if I wanted to.
00:28:51Kill me?
00:28:51No.
00:28:52Is that right?
00:28:53No.
00:28:53Fine.
00:28:54I'll go with you.
00:28:55But don't say I didn't warn you.
00:28:57Watch your tongue.
00:28:58But don't worry.
00:28:59Soon, you'll be too busy screaming in my dungeon to talk back.
00:29:04Please, please don't hurt him.
00:29:06No, Arthur.
00:29:06Father.
00:29:07Mother.
00:29:08Don't worry.
00:29:09I'll be back very soon.
00:29:10You think you're coming back?
00:29:12Take him away.
00:29:14Oh, don't.
00:29:15Take your hands out of my son.
00:29:18Well, well.
00:29:19I didn't expect that runt to hit me.
00:29:22Just wait.
00:29:23The two of you will join him soon.
00:29:25Let's go, Father.
00:29:26Serves you right, brother.
00:29:33Arthur, no.
00:29:38What happened here?
00:29:40Lord Benjamin, it was all your butler's doing.
00:29:43And your cousin, Lady Edith.
00:29:46They even took my son to the dungeon.
00:29:48Your son?
00:29:52Tall and with dark hair?
00:29:53We need to go.
00:30:00Now.
00:30:03God, Carl, what are we going to do with Arthur's gun?
00:30:07Anne.
00:30:08Anne is engaged to John Moore.
00:30:09The Moors can help.
00:30:10They're engaged?
00:30:11Yes, but that was years ago.
00:30:12John Moore's a rich man now.
00:30:13He surely can...
00:30:14We have to try, Carl, please.
00:30:17You're right.
00:30:18We have to just...
00:30:18You're right.
00:30:19We have to try.
00:30:19We have to find our son.
00:30:25What happened to that fire?
00:30:27That rage?
00:30:28Scared of the consequences now, runt?
00:30:30Consequences.
00:30:32For giving you what you deserve.
00:30:39Watch your mouth.
00:30:42Your family is done for and you're still talking back.
00:30:47No, my lady.
00:30:48It's your family that's done for.
00:30:50I've made up my mind.
00:30:52I will not spare you.
00:30:53Me, needing sparing from you.
00:30:58You've gone mad.
00:31:03It seems like you've gotten it in your head that you could do something to us.
00:31:09Let me remind you of your place.
00:31:12You insolent brat!
00:31:26What are you doing?
00:31:28Reminding you of your place.
00:31:33Stop it or I'll have you killed!
00:31:35You have me killed.
00:31:38You've got the wrong man.
00:31:42Consider it your warning, cousin.
00:31:55The gall of you!
00:31:57Threatening me and then calling yourself my cousin!
00:32:01I won't let you off easy!
00:32:03You want another go?
00:32:04Still trying to act tough?
00:32:06It seems like we'll need to teach you a lesson.
00:32:09Guards, flog him!
00:32:13Hold it!
00:32:16You're not flogging anyone.
00:32:22Hold it!
00:32:30Oh, cousin, you don't understand.
00:32:32This lowly scum had disregarded your orders and impeded the Duke's relocation efforts and...
00:32:37And he even tried to punch me!
00:32:39Cousin Benjamin, you must see to it that he is punished.
00:32:43Stopped oinking once the Baron showed up, hmm?
00:32:46Your side of the Wellesley family is going to be dinner.
00:32:49Sir, this lowly villain is unfortunately my cousin.
00:32:54Just like his parents, they've no regard for your authority.
00:32:58That's right, Benjamin.
00:32:59What happened again?
00:33:00We had gone to the less fortunate Wellesley's to evict them, but he tried to stop us.
00:33:05So, Edith had him brought here to teach him a lesson, but it looks like he hasn't learned anything.
00:33:11Oh, sir, you don't know the half of it.
00:33:13He hit us and ordered us to kneel to him.
00:33:17He even said that you were lowlier than he.
00:33:20You must punish him accordingly.
00:33:23As I was saying, the consequences of your actions.
00:33:29You fool.
00:33:31There will be consequences, all right.
00:33:33For you!
00:33:34What for, sir?
00:33:36Have I done something wrong, sir?
00:33:39I don't...
00:33:40Cousin, you misunderstand.
00:33:42There is no misunderstanding.
00:33:46Have you lost your mind?
00:33:48Do you know who this man is?
00:33:53Do you know who this man is?
00:33:55He's nothing but a beggar, the son of peasants.
00:34:02Get out of my sight, you pathetic woman.
00:34:07Duke of Mercia, your grace.
00:34:10Pardon my tardiness.
00:34:15Duke?
00:34:16What do you mean, Duke?
00:34:18Sir, you must be mistaken.
00:34:21Rightly so.
00:34:22He's a peasant, a beggar.
00:34:24How can he be the Duke?
00:34:28Don't question me.
00:34:30No.
00:34:31No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:34:32This is possible.
00:34:34How can you say you're the Duke?
00:34:37Shut it, Wellesley.
00:34:39You have no right to speak.
00:34:42That lowlife's the Duke?
00:34:44Carl's son is the Duke?
00:34:46Oh, no.
00:34:47No.
00:34:47George, what have we done?
00:34:57Lord Vengeance.
00:34:58It seems that you've neglected your duties as baron.
00:35:03Your people have shown me nothing but disdain.
00:35:06They take from the poor, torture your innocent, pillage and kill.
00:35:11Have you no order in Stanford?
00:35:14I'll have them punished for their wrongdoings.
00:35:16Their wrongdoings.
00:35:18I imagine then, it was you who have allowed them to do this.
00:35:22And it is you who must be punished.
00:35:25Mercy, your grace.
00:35:27I'll have them flogged, exiled, punished to the extent of the law.
00:35:32Please, your grace, spare us.
00:35:34Cousin.
00:35:39It's my fault.
00:35:40See, your grace, I've been a fool.
00:35:44Punish me.
00:35:45Flog me as you will.
00:35:47But let me live.
00:35:48We are from the same family, Duke Arthur.
00:35:53I don't want to die.
00:35:55Young Arthur, my son had just become a butler.
00:35:59He's only just delivered us from the clutches of poverty.
00:36:03Please, we adore him so.
00:36:05You must kill him or exile him.
00:36:09Please, I beg you, as your uncle, as your father's own brother.
00:36:14Oh, you're too cruel, Arthur.
00:36:16How could you do this to another, Wellesley?
00:36:24Cruelty?
00:36:25Have you forgotten your cruelty to mother and father?
00:36:27Threatening to leave them homeless and laughing in their face when they begged you!
00:36:32Have you forgotten what you've done to my parents?
00:36:34Your own brother?
00:36:38And cousin Robert?
00:36:40What happened to making me see the consequences of my actions?
00:36:43Did you pity your poor cousin then?
00:36:45I've seen you for what you are.
00:36:48Shameless and wretched scum.
00:36:51You are unfit to live.
00:36:55Have them dealt with.
00:36:57And think about what you've done.
00:36:59You're meant to be noble.
00:37:00Not only in your actions, but in your name.
00:37:03See that your people behave.
00:37:05Or I'll have your title removed.
00:37:07I will see to them personally.
00:37:10Oh, please.
00:37:12Oh, sir.
00:37:12Please.
00:37:14Robert deceived me.
00:37:15It's all his fault.
00:37:17Please, Duke Arthur.
00:37:18Spare me.
00:37:20I'll do anything for you.
00:37:22Egypt.
00:37:23What are you doing?
00:37:24You villain.
00:37:28If it weren't for you, I never would have gotten involved with this mess.
00:37:31I'm calling all her engagement.
00:37:33From this moment onward, I'll have nothing to do with you.
00:37:36I beg of you, O great and honorable Duke.
00:37:39Forgive me.
00:37:40Don't you want to see what I have to offer?
00:37:45Save it, Sloth.
00:37:47Lord Benjamin.
00:37:48Make sure these vermin never cross my path again.
00:37:53They make me sick.
00:37:59Gods!
00:38:00Lock them up.
00:38:01Cousin, please!
00:38:02Won't you speak to him?
00:38:04Just let me go.
00:38:05I won't ever do it again.
00:38:07Ouch!
00:38:09No!
00:38:10No!
00:38:11Sir!
00:38:11Please!
00:38:12Please!
00:38:13Please, please!
00:38:14No!
00:38:20In good news, Benjamin, I found my parents.
00:38:24My God, it's wonderful, Your Grace.
00:38:26What a blessed day it is.
00:38:28I wish to host a banquet tonight, introduce my parents to upper society.
00:38:34Life has been cruel to them, and I wish for them to live happily.
00:38:39Oh, and my sister too, Anna.
00:38:41I want to do something special for her as well.
00:38:44Did you just say Anna?
00:38:47It's in the maid, Anna.
00:38:48Right.
00:38:49Anna.
00:38:50She works her, doesn't she?
00:38:51Uh, it seems that I have someone the Duke might want.
00:38:58Mr. Wellesley, Lord Benjamin says Anna is to attend to the Duke personally for the next few days.
00:39:04Did you just say Anna?
00:39:11It's in the maid, Anna.
00:39:13Right.
00:39:14Anna.
00:39:15She works her, doesn't she?
00:39:16Uh...
00:39:16Bring me to her.
00:39:17Uh, no, Your Grace.
00:39:19I...
00:39:19What?
00:39:20I thought...
00:39:21I thought that you fancied her, so I...
00:39:23What have you done?
00:39:25Bring me to her right now.
00:39:26You have fine features.
00:39:40For a scullery maid, I can see why he likes you.
00:39:45Mr. Crowley, did you need something?
00:39:48Yes, pet.
00:39:49You have been chosen.
00:39:56Take off your clothes.
00:39:58What are you going to do to me?
00:40:00Oh, don't worry.
00:40:01I have no interest in you.
00:40:03I wouldn't dare.
00:40:07Put this on.
00:40:14Perfect.
00:40:16I can see why he chose you in particular.
00:40:18Mr. Crowley, what's all this about?
00:40:22The Baron has ordered you to meet another client.
00:40:25A big man.
00:40:26You are to be his mistress.
00:40:28To satisfy his physical needs, of course.
00:40:32An honor for a common whore like you.
00:40:35No, I refuse.
00:40:37You don't have a choice.
00:40:40Baron's orders.
00:40:44Do you even know who you are serving?
00:40:46It is the Duke.
00:40:48The one you poured tea on.
00:40:50What?
00:40:50The Duke?
00:40:51Aw, dumb already, are you?
00:40:53Still think you can say no, whore?
00:40:56Please, I don't want to.
00:41:02It's a good opportunity, dammit.
00:41:05Mr. Crowley, I'm betrothed.
00:41:08I don't want to be another man's mistress.
00:41:12Hadn't your father just fallen ill?
00:41:14Weren't you complaining about money?
00:41:16Don't you even want to help your family, you ingrate?
00:41:19Serve the Duke, and the money's yours.
00:41:34You'll have no short supply of expensive little trinkets.
00:41:37I would never sell my body, not for a few coppers, not for anything.
00:41:53I am a woman of honor.
00:41:55Honor is for people who deserve it, not a lowly whore like you.
00:42:00You don't get to stay now!
00:42:13Let me go, please!
00:42:15Hands off!
00:42:17You don't get to stay now!
00:42:19Let me go, please!
00:42:23Hands off of her!
00:42:26He didn't hurt you, did he?
00:42:27Are you the Duke, sir?
00:42:29Sir, what is the meaning of this?
00:42:33You imbecile!
00:42:35But, sir, you said...
00:42:38Have you no shame acting like this in my manner?
00:42:43Sir, this bitch refused your orders.
00:42:46It is my right as house steward to teach her a lesson.
00:42:53Apologize to her, or I'll have you fired.
00:42:56Apologize, sir, but she's the lowly scullery maid.
00:43:00She was out of line!
00:43:05A lowly maid?
00:43:07Mark my words, she's Duke Arthur's sister.
00:43:14She's his sister?
00:43:16The lowly maid is his sister?
00:43:18Are you really my brother?
00:43:22My Arthur?
00:43:24Yes, Anna.
00:43:25I've come back to protect you, and mother, and father.
00:43:30Arthur!
00:43:32Where have you been all these years?
00:43:33You missed you terribly.
00:43:36Here, there.
00:43:38Let me deal with this man first.
00:43:39Once again, Lord Benjamin, your men have shown their true colors.
00:43:50Disgusting and vile.
00:43:52Sir, I failed to discipline them.
00:43:55But yes, sir, Duke, I was wrong.
00:44:01I would have never treated her like that had I known that she was your sister.
00:44:04Yet you see no issue in treating her this way if she wasn't.
00:44:11Isn't that so?
00:44:14Lowly servants?
00:44:15They're worthless in your eyes, aren't they?
00:44:18Well, Mr. Stewart, you're worthless to me.
00:44:20No!
00:44:21It was Benjamin, the Baron!
00:44:22Lord!
00:44:23He asked me to!
00:44:23No, I didn't!
00:44:25God!
00:44:26Throw him into the dungeon!
00:44:28No!
00:44:28No, please!
00:44:29Have him, sir!
00:44:31No!
00:44:32No!
00:44:32No!
00:44:33No!
00:44:34Anna, tell me truly, are you all right?
00:44:40Yes, I am now, because you're back.
00:44:44And I can't believe it, you're the Duke!
00:44:46Oh, let's go see Mother and Father, they'll be overjoyed, I just know it!
00:44:51Anna, I've already met them.
00:44:53Oh, then you must know the years have been quite hard on them.
00:44:58But it's all worth it, because you're back.
00:45:01Anna, stay here.
00:45:03I'll bring them here, okay?
00:45:07Duke Arthur, I believe that your parents are currently of the Moors.
00:45:11John Moore has been engaged to your sister for some time.
00:45:14Yes, John and I are engaged, but...
00:45:18He's your fiancé, Anna.
00:45:21So I'll love him like a brother.
00:45:23Lord Benjamin, arrange a feast for tonight.
00:45:26I want to show our parents high society.
00:45:28And invite John Moore.
00:45:31I'll speak to the king.
00:45:32See if he can grant him a noble title.
00:45:34As you wish, Duke Arthur.
00:45:46Is that the Moors' home?
00:45:48Fine place for a merchant family, but...
00:45:50They'll be able to afford better very soon.
00:45:52Well, we're here.
00:45:58The home of our supposed son-in-law.
00:46:00Yeah.
00:46:00You tartaring fool.
00:46:10No!
00:46:11Why have you come back?
00:46:16John, this is your fiancé's father.
00:46:19Ow!
00:46:19You will call me Mr. Moore.
00:46:23And you are nothing to me.
00:46:25John!
00:46:26That's Mr. Moore.
00:46:28Shut up.
00:46:30I'm sorry.
00:46:31Mr. Moore, please, let's talk.
00:46:34And what is this about me being your daughter's fiancé?
00:46:38You've always been poor, but now you're liars, too.
00:46:41Mr. Moore, you know as well as I do.
00:46:44You've been betrothed to Anna for years.
00:46:47Your father and I, we had an arrangement.
00:46:48That may be so, but circumstances have changed.
00:46:52Do you think my father would want me marrying someone that comes from you filthy swine?
00:46:58That's not why we're here today.
00:47:01We're here because...
00:47:02Oh, I know.
00:47:04Money.
00:47:04Isn't that right?
00:47:08Alms for the poor.
00:47:10Now away with you.
00:47:12Mr. Moore, we didn't come here today for money.
00:47:15That's enough!
00:47:16If your breath reeks, beat some sense into the old caja and take him out of here.
00:47:24I'd like to see you try.
00:47:28I'd like to see you try.
00:47:29Arthur, my boy, they set you free.
00:47:37Rightfully so, father.
00:47:38Oh, Arthur.
00:47:40It's so good to see you alive and well.
00:47:43Father.
00:47:44Mother.
00:47:45Robert's been punished for what he did to you.
00:47:48You must be the son I keep hearing so much about.
00:47:50Weren't you kidnapped to join the army?
00:47:54Run away, did you?
00:47:56And now you've come here to leech off me?
00:47:58You're John Moore.
00:48:01Now, did I hear you say you wanted to have my father beaten?
00:48:06So what if I did?
00:48:08What's a runt like you going to do about it anyway?
00:48:12Cry?
00:48:13Piss your pants?
00:48:14Say that again.
00:48:22If you think I'm going to take it easy on you because you're engaged to my sister,
00:48:26then you'd be wrong.
00:48:28Let go of me, you dirty dog.
00:48:30Resulting to violence now, are we?
00:48:37Like the lowlife you are.
00:48:40Come on then.
00:48:42Hit me.
00:48:43And you regret ever being born.
00:48:45You think that can stop me?
00:48:47Who do you think you are?
00:48:57Oh, it's just a peasant.
00:48:59John, my darling, I come bearing good news.
00:49:02Father says the duke has arranged for a banquet at the manor and you're invited.
00:49:07And the duke is going to ask the king to grant you a title.
00:49:10Finally, you can be part of upper society and we can marry.
00:49:12A title?
00:49:13Adela, tell me it's true.
00:49:15I finally have a name to match my wealth.
00:49:18No one will be able to tell us what to do.
00:49:21No one will be able to say no to us.
00:49:25Of course it's true, John, darling.
00:49:27The duke adores my father.
00:49:28He's the baron, after all.
00:49:30In fact, the duke is at the manor right now.
00:49:34Don't waste your time with these peasants.
00:49:36Let's go, John.
00:49:37Lady Adela, I'm afraid we must deal with these peasants first.
00:49:40As dirty as they are, this is Arthur, Anna's brother.
00:49:44And now that I'm rich, he wants to force me to marry his sister.
00:49:48What did you say?
00:49:49Oh, I see.
00:49:53You're that boy that was kidnapped as a child.
00:49:56Well then, be gone.
00:49:58We have nothing to give a shameless beggar.
00:50:02Oh, don't touch me, you disgusting man.
00:50:04Don't you know who my father is?
00:50:06Lord Benjamin, evidently.
00:50:08Don't you know?
00:50:10Even your father watches his tongue around me.
00:50:13Ah!
00:50:13Adela!
00:50:15Oh, I can't believe I've been touched by a dirty beggar.
00:50:19Have you no manners around the rich?
00:50:21You scum.
00:50:23You better beg for forgiveness if you want to live.
00:50:25And what authority do you have over me?
00:50:28And what authority do you have over me?
00:50:30Every authority, peasant scum.
00:50:33My father is the Baron of Stamford.
00:50:36And now that you're all here, let it be known.
00:50:39I am not going to marry Anna.
00:50:42I am to be a noble, so do not let me catch sight of you all again.
00:50:47Going back on your word, John?
00:50:49That's unbecoming of your future title.
00:50:51I think John has made himself clear enough.
00:50:54Get lost, you blood-sucking leech.
00:50:56Leeching off of him?
00:50:58I would never.
00:50:59His money is as vile as his word.
00:51:04No matter.
00:51:06A man like you doesn't deserve my sister anyway.
00:51:10Men, get him.
00:51:13No!
00:51:15Men, get him.
00:51:17No!
00:51:20Arthur, we will tell Anna.
00:51:23But, please.
00:51:24We cannot anger Mr. Moore.
00:51:27He's going to be a noble now.
00:51:30At least your chambermaid of a mother knows how to act in front of men like me.
00:51:35Drop the matter, and I'll let you leave.
00:51:41We'll go.
00:51:42But best you remember,
00:51:44it is the Wellesleys who called off this engagement.
00:51:48Because you,
00:51:51John Moore,
00:51:51are unfit for my sister.
00:51:57John Moore,
00:51:58are unfit for my sister.
00:52:00My word.
00:52:02Unfit.
00:52:03For you.
00:52:05Let's see.
00:52:06Servant.
00:52:07Servant.
00:52:08Beggar.
00:52:08Oh, you're too funny.
00:52:11Take this as a friendly warning, John.
00:52:14Lest you regret your decision later.
00:52:16I have no mind to regret anything regarding you lot.
00:52:19Now that that's settled,
00:52:21if you ever speak to us again,
00:52:24I will have your legs cut off.
00:52:27Come now.
00:52:28We have a banquet to attend.
00:52:29Oh, that's the Moors for you.
00:52:40Some coin,
00:52:41and they forget everything that we've ever done for them.
00:52:43Oh, Arthur.
00:52:45I wish we had had a better reception for you.
00:52:48Oh, Mother, don't say that, please.
00:52:50I've already arranged something for you.
00:52:52I finally found you.
00:52:54That's cause for celebration.
00:52:55You've arranged something?
00:52:57No.
00:52:57No, I...
00:52:59Please.
00:53:00I hope you haven't spent any coin on us, Arthur.
00:53:03What have you arranged?
00:53:04Just something small at the Baron's Manor.
00:53:06Don't worry, Mother.
00:53:08It's been paid for.
00:53:09At the Baron's Manor?
00:53:10Arthur, we...
00:53:12Haven't you heard the Duke will be there?
00:53:14We can't possibly impose.
00:53:16It's...
00:53:17Like I said, Mother,
00:53:19don't worry.
00:53:20You'll see.
00:53:22Oh, she...
00:53:23Oh.
00:53:25Oh.
00:53:27Lady Adela,
00:53:33this is all very splendid.
00:53:36You must introduce us to the Duke when he arrives.
00:53:39Oh, Mrs. Moore, of course.
00:53:41As the Baron of Stamford,
00:53:42my father is very close to the Duke.
00:53:45It's likely he was the one to recommend John in the first place.
00:53:49Of course, the Duke would love to meet you.
00:53:51I cannot believe it.
00:53:53A noble title.
00:53:54Lady Adela,
00:53:55you are simply full of surprises.
00:53:58You are the best match for John,
00:53:59no doubt about it.
00:54:02I've been meaning to ask, Adela.
00:54:04Why would someone like the Duke
00:54:05come to Stamford in the first place?
00:54:07Well, Stamford is his hometown.
00:54:09The king dispatched him here
00:54:11to oversee the building of a new fort.
00:54:14The real reason is his parents.
00:54:16He was separated from them when he was a child.
00:54:19Even this banquet, I hear,
00:54:21is all for them.
00:54:22Must be good, noble people
00:54:24to rear such a fine man like the Duke.
00:54:27We must make a good impression.
00:54:29How did those peasants get in?
00:54:56This banquet,
00:54:57I've arranged it all for you.
00:55:00I'll introduce you to everyone shortly.
00:55:03Arthur,
00:55:04don't just,
00:55:05what do you mean for us?
00:55:07Mother,
00:55:08I'm serious.
00:55:10This is all for you.
00:55:12But,
00:55:13how could you have arranged all this?
00:55:15How much money did you spend?
00:55:17Money has nothing to do with it, Father.
00:55:19I just want to see you happy.
00:55:21We are happy.
00:55:23Truly happy.
00:55:24We're finally all together again.
00:55:27John,
00:55:31I thought you told them to get lost.
00:55:33Why are they back?
00:55:38John,
00:55:39I thought you told them to get lost.
00:55:41Why are they back?
00:55:42Damn low lives.
00:55:44They must have tailed us in.
00:55:45I knew those ill-bred dogs would go away that easily.
00:55:50Scoundrels all.
00:55:51Mrs. Moore,
00:55:53rest easy.
00:55:55This banquet is held on the Duke's orders,
00:55:58and Father asked me to see that our guests enjoy themselves.
00:56:02I have every authority to throw them out.
00:56:04Come.
00:56:05Come.
00:56:06Come.
00:56:06Come.
00:56:16Who let you in?
00:56:22Who let you in?
00:56:24You must be lost, peasant.
00:56:26This is the Duke's banquet,
00:56:28not the gruel kitchen.
00:56:29I suggest you turn around immediately.
00:56:32And I suggest you shut your mouth.
00:56:35This is my manor.
00:56:37My father is hosting it under direct orders of the Duke.
00:56:41You have no place to speak here.
00:56:44And you?
00:56:45You must be the bitch that John was engaged to.
00:56:49I'll have you know,
00:56:51John is going to be a noble.
00:56:54You'll have no way into his home.
00:56:57Unless you'd like to be our maid once we marry.
00:57:01Lowborn as I may be,
00:57:02I'm still more noble than a harlot like you.
00:57:05You wench.
00:57:07I will not let you talk to Lady Adela like this.
00:57:10Apologize right now.
00:57:12I owe her nothing of the sort.
00:57:13She is the one who's courting an engaged man.
00:57:16I told your parents
00:57:18and your disgusting beggar of a brother
00:57:21I called off the engagement.
00:57:24You're not good enough for me.
00:57:26You're wrong.
00:57:27It's you who isn't good enough for me.
00:57:30I would never marry a man with such a fickle heart
00:57:32who would abandon his fiancee
00:57:34just to chase after some harlot's coin.
00:57:36You dirty bitch.
00:57:42That's what you get for talking to my son like that.
00:57:47How dare you raise your hands to my daughter?
00:57:50How dare she insult my son?
00:57:53You're right, mother.
00:57:54We ought to slap some sense into them.
00:57:56Anna, look at yourself.
00:57:58You're nothing compared to Lady Adela.
00:58:01It's no wonder I chose her.
00:58:04Lady Adela is Lord Benjamin's daughter.
00:58:08What do you have that Lady Adela doesn't?
00:58:11Besides this useless beggar of a brother.
00:58:15Do not insult my brother.
00:58:17He is more noble than any of you.
00:58:27All this dirty work must have done you in.
00:58:31A beggar like him.
00:58:33You lowly peasants.
00:58:35None of you deserve to talk to us.
00:58:37Get out or we'll throw you out with force.
00:58:40Get out or we'll throw you out with force.
00:58:45It is you who ought to be thrown out.
00:58:52Hmm.
00:58:52What a pretty money-sucking leech.
00:58:58I would tell her.
00:58:59I'm disgusted by the implication.
00:59:03Despite her features,
00:59:05a maid that cleans chamber parts all day
00:59:08is more fit to marry a stable boy.
00:59:10Say that again and I'll make you pay.
00:59:13Oh no.
00:59:14What are you going to do?
00:59:16Hit me?
00:59:18Well come on then.
00:59:20Have at it.
00:59:24Well.
00:59:26I do say I think this was the first time
00:59:27I heard someone ask for it.
00:59:29But I think we all heard him clearly enough.
00:59:34You feel it.
00:59:36You actually asked.
00:59:36You asked for it.
00:59:38I obliged.
00:59:40Lord Benjamin.
00:59:45The Duke has arrived.
00:59:47He's here already.
00:59:48We have to go.
00:59:50You asked for it.
00:59:51I am to be a noble.
00:59:53And you will not offend me again.
00:59:55Why should I care?
00:59:57I'm sure Lord Benjamin would understand.
00:59:59Do not speak my father's name.
01:00:01You're dead.
01:00:02My father will see to it when he arrives.
01:00:04On your knees.
01:00:06And I demand you apologize to John now.
01:00:09And your filthy parents too.
01:00:11Down!
01:00:12Who do you think you are barking orders at me?
01:00:14Don't think you're so high and mighty
01:00:15just because you followed us in.
01:00:17You've no right to speak to my son
01:00:19or Lady Adela like this.
01:00:21Don't you know how much I suffered
01:00:23being betrothed to your dirty whore of a sister?
01:00:26I will not let you embarrass me again.
01:00:29We've been gracious enough letting the matter go
01:00:34yet you shameless rats won't stop bothering us.
01:00:38Away!
01:00:38Off with you!
01:00:39Oh Mrs. Moore.
01:00:40I have a much better idea.
01:00:43Let's add a few tears to their teary reunion.
01:00:46Guards!
01:00:50Execute him!
01:00:51No!
01:00:52I want to watch as they lose their precious son.
01:00:56Again.
01:00:57Oh Lady Adela I think if that's the case
01:01:00we ought to keep him alive.
01:01:02He's already a useless beggar.
01:01:04We ought to break his legs and keep him that way.
01:01:07Lisa!
01:01:08Lady Moore!
01:01:09Please!
01:01:10I apologize.
01:01:12I'll have Arthur repent.
01:01:13Right away!
01:01:13Yes please.
01:01:15Pardon us.
01:01:15Arthur.
01:01:16Please I beg of you apologize.
01:01:19Please.
01:01:19You've enough wit to be scared
01:01:22but it's too late.
01:01:24It's not my fault you've been grating on my nerves.
01:01:26I've nothing left for pity.
01:01:28Seems like you have quite a loud bark
01:01:30with no bite now.
01:01:33What did you just say to me?
01:01:36Mother.
01:01:37Father.
01:01:38I already told you.
01:01:39This banquet is for you.
01:01:41In honor of us all being together again.
01:01:43You have every right to enjoy yourself.
01:01:46And my sister was correct.
01:01:47You ought to apologize for your poor behavior.
01:01:50In honor to have you thrown out.
01:01:51Soon.
01:01:52You'll be kneeling before us.
01:01:54Begging for the forgiveness.
01:01:55We have every right to withhold.
01:01:57A pity.
01:01:58To have a son like him.
01:02:00Imagine.
01:02:01Spending ten years to find your son.
01:02:03Just to have him turn out like this.
01:02:05The real pity is what will be happening to you soon.
01:02:08I think I'll be quite happy in the future.
01:02:09Oh, yes.
01:02:12Happy.
01:02:13Very happy, I imagine, with your legs mangled, crawling on the ground.
01:02:18Oh, and your poor parents.
01:02:20I'm sure they'll be very joyous over such a sight.
01:02:24Seize them!
01:02:25No.
01:02:26No.
01:02:26Please, no.
01:02:28Presenting the honorable Lord Benjamin, Baron of Stamford.
01:02:31Oh, you're in for it now.
01:02:36Lord Benjamin is the most powerful man in Stamford, and he's backed by the Duke, whose authority
01:02:42is second only to the King.
01:02:44You poor, poor souls.
01:02:46We'll see what the Duke has to say when he hears about this.
01:02:50I reckon you'll all be beaten to death in the dungeons.
01:02:52Don't waste your breath, madam.
01:02:54A commoner like him can't even fathom the great power the Duke has.
01:02:58Of course, Lady Adela.
01:03:00It'd be an honor for him to lay eyes on the gentlemen before he crushes them like the rats
01:03:05they are.
01:03:06Oh, no.
01:03:08I can't wait.
01:03:10How unfortunate it had to come to this.
01:03:12Yes.
01:03:13How unfortunate it is for you.
01:03:16Lord Benjamin is my father, and once I tell him what you've done to me and my dear John,
01:03:23he'll have you all beheaded.
01:03:25No.
01:03:26Oh, how lucky it is to be so simple-minded.
01:03:30You, half-dead caudges, and you, harlot.
01:03:36Any last words?
01:03:38No teary goodbyes?
01:03:40Or, do you wish to die with him?
01:03:43John, please.
01:03:45Arthur was just impulsive.
01:03:46Please put in a good word for him.
01:03:48Get your dirty hands off of me!
01:03:50You scoundrel!
01:03:51I'll do it again!
01:03:52You scoundrel!
01:03:58I'll do it again!
01:04:01John!
01:04:02My darling boy!
01:04:03How dare you!
01:04:05Touch my parents again, and your family will pay.
01:04:08Let it be known, this night was meant to be a joyous one, and I did not wish to taint
01:04:12it with strife and bloodshed.
01:04:14I would have let you go, as awful as your behavior was to me, but you insulted my virtuous sister
01:04:20and raised your hand to my saintly mother and father!
01:04:23Your actions beg for punishment, and I am happy to see to them.
01:04:29Let it be known, I plan to exile the Moore family from the good town of Stamford.
01:04:33Oh, you've gone mad.
01:04:39Truly mad.
01:04:41Lady Adela, have your men restrain him for the safety of your guests, and have him flogged
01:04:46in the dungeon.
01:04:50What's this again about the dungeons?
01:04:55Lord Benjamin, you've finally come.
01:04:57My lord, we've been troubled so by these lowly peasants.
01:05:01Father, it's them.
01:05:02I say we take them to the dungeons.
01:05:08This is the Duke's banquet, Adela.
01:05:11I will not tolerate your antics.
01:05:14Pardon me, Father.
01:05:15It seems I have been lax, for these lowly, dirty servants have snuck in.
01:05:20Lowly, dirty servants?
01:05:25Yes, Father.
01:05:27The Mr. and Mrs. are servants, and so is the daughter.
01:05:30And he's a beggar.
01:05:32A vile, disgusting man.
01:05:35Perhaps we could send them away with some scraps from the kitchens.
01:05:38I dare say be better than anything they've ever tasted.
01:05:40Oh, Father, please allow me to see it.
01:05:43I'll have their bones broken and left out for the dogs for disturbing the Duke's banquet.
01:05:49Silence!
01:05:51But, Lord Benjamin, why?
01:05:54Duke of Mercia, Arthur.
01:05:57Your Grace.
01:05:58At your service.
01:05:59Ailed in his grace.
01:06:01The Duke, Arthur.
01:06:11What?
01:06:12What?
01:06:14That's him.
01:06:15He's Duke Arthur.
01:06:19That's him.
01:06:21He's Duke Arthur.
01:06:24Lord Benjamin.
01:06:26I was promised a warm welcome.
01:06:28What is all of this?
01:06:29I'll see to it, Your Grace.
01:06:32My boy.
01:06:34What do the parents say?
01:06:35Is it Duke Arthur that he just called you?
01:06:37Huh?
01:06:38What?
01:06:39Sir.
01:06:41Madam.
01:06:42Please.
01:06:44Benjamin.
01:06:46At your service.
01:06:47I don't understand.
01:06:49Are you really?
01:06:50Yes, Father.
01:06:52What?
01:06:53I'm the Duke.
01:06:55My boy?
01:06:57The Duke?
01:06:58That's my son.
01:07:00That's my son.
01:07:01He's a Duke.
01:07:02What did I say?
01:07:04My brother is more noble than anyone.
01:07:07Lord Benjamin.
01:07:09Are you certain he's the Duke?
01:07:12Father.
01:07:13You said the Duke was a great man.
01:07:16You must be mistaken.
01:07:18You stupid girl.
01:07:20How could I be wrong?
01:07:22And you.
01:07:24You ought to be ashamed.
01:07:26How dare you do this to his grace, Duke Arthur.
01:07:29No.
01:07:30It can't be.
01:07:31Father, tell me it's a joke.
01:07:33It simply can't be.
01:07:34Get on your knees, girl.
01:07:37And maybe he'll forgive you.
01:07:40No.
01:07:41You said that the Duke was going to give John a title.
01:07:44Why would John call off the engagement to his sister?
01:07:48Maybe this will get through your thick skull.
01:07:52He is the Duke.
01:07:53The one and only.
01:07:55Guards, take her away until she has learned her lesson.
01:07:59Guards, take her away until she has learned her lesson.
01:08:06No.
01:08:07Father, no.
01:08:09It can't be.
01:08:09It can't be the Duke.
01:08:10He simply can't be.
01:08:15Your Grace, I must apologize.
01:08:17That's enough.
01:08:19Your family has played your hand for it.
01:08:21Duke Arthur, sir.
01:08:22Why, certainly.
01:08:25My son is still engaged to the Wellesley's daughter.
01:08:28Our connection is nothing to stop at.
01:08:31Mother, my brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.
01:08:38My brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.
01:08:42We'll be set for life.
01:08:44Oh, married to the sister of the Duke.
01:08:46Oh, goodness.
01:08:47That must be why you want to give me a noble title.
01:08:50So I can marry Anna.
01:08:52Anna.
01:08:53Can you believe it?
01:08:55Your brother, a Duke.
01:08:56What does that have to do with you?
01:08:58It has everything to do with me, darling.
01:09:00You're my fiancé, remember?
01:09:03Don't forget about me just because your brother's a Duke now.
01:09:05You are truly shameless, John.
01:09:08Don't be like that, my dear, darling fiancé.
01:09:10Fiancé, have you forgotten what you just called me?
01:09:14A dirty whore?
01:09:16Only fit to wet his table boy.
01:09:18Isn't that right?
01:09:20Oh, Anna, forgive him, would you?
01:09:22A pettiness doesn't suit a pretty face like yours.
01:09:26Women like us, we ought to understand our husband's temperaments.
01:09:31My sister.
01:09:32Petty.
01:09:33That's rich coming from you.
01:09:35Oh, Duke Arthur.
01:09:37My brother, I must apologize for what I said.
01:09:41I'll apologize to Anna.
01:09:42There is no need.
01:09:44I have no wish to hear anything further from you.
01:09:47The woman has spoken, John.
01:09:48It seems my sister disdains your vile habits.
01:09:52Anna, this is all my fault.
01:09:55We grew up together, didn't we?
01:09:57I loved you.
01:09:58I did.
01:10:00This has all been a big misunderstanding, of course.
01:10:02I'm sure you can forgive me.
01:10:04Please, give me another chance.
01:10:07Yes, dear, just a misunderstanding.
01:10:10Let's put it all behind us now, shall we?
01:10:14Yeah.
01:10:14Forgive you.
01:10:17I don't think I will.
01:10:19It would be a sin to forget what you've done to my mother and father.
01:10:22My brother's title has nothing to do with you.
01:10:25I wish for you to be gone and never come back.
01:10:29Anna.
01:10:33Forgive me.
01:10:35You're better than this.
01:10:38Please, forgive me.
01:10:40You're better than this.
01:10:44Leave my sister alone, scum.
01:10:46Your apology means nothing.
01:10:48Please.
01:10:49Your grace, Duke Arthur.
01:10:51It's all my fault.
01:10:52I've wronged you.
01:10:53I admit it.
01:10:54I beg your pardon.
01:10:56Mr. Wesley.
01:10:58Madame.
01:10:59Please ask Arthur to show us mercy.
01:11:02I was betrothed to Anna.
01:11:04I've shown her much kindness.
01:11:07Mother.
01:11:08Please ask him to forgive me.
01:11:10I cannot live without Anna.
01:11:13Jane, please.
01:11:14I even got you the job at the Baron's Manor.
01:11:17Are you going to be so cruel as to forget everything I've done for you that John's done for you?
01:11:23A bit of compassion for an old friend?
01:11:26Yes.
01:11:27Mr. Wesley, please.
01:11:29I'll do anything for her.
01:11:30I'll give her whatever she wants.
01:11:32If you just please forgive my one transgression.
01:11:36How dare you ask for compassion?
01:11:39How dare you ask for compassion?
01:11:45Have you shown any compassion to my father?
01:11:48To my mother?
01:11:49Those ten long years I was gone.
01:11:52Did you help them at all?
01:11:53Did you give them any aid?
01:11:55You speak of them as an old friend.
01:11:57As if they have ever forsaken you.
01:12:00But you.
01:12:01Had I not been announced as the Duke, you would have kicked them to the ground and spit on their bodies.
01:12:06You called off my sister's engagement for the first noble lady you saw.
01:12:10You do not deserve my mercy.
01:12:12Duke.
01:12:14Arthur.
01:12:14I...
01:12:15Silence!
01:12:16I've seen you at your worst.
01:12:18I've seen how you treated me.
01:12:20My father.
01:12:21My mother.
01:12:22Anna.
01:12:23You are a shameless, filthy villain.
01:12:27Be gone.
01:12:30Lord Benjamin.
01:12:31Yes, sir.
01:12:32Have the Moors removed from the manor.
01:12:38Lord Benjamin.
01:12:40Yes, sir.
01:12:41Have the Moors removed from the manor.
01:12:43And forbid anyone from doing business with them in the town of Stanford.
01:12:47Yes, sir.
01:12:48Much better.
01:12:55Father.
01:12:57Mother.
01:12:59Anna.
01:13:00Let us enjoy this banquet in peace.
01:13:03Arthur.
01:13:04This banquet is lovely.
01:13:09But nothing is better than us being reunited as a family.
01:13:14And together we'll be forever.
01:13:18All right.
01:13:43Bye.
01:13:43Bye.
01:13:44Bye.
01:13:44Bye.
01:13:44Bye.
01:13:45Bye.
01:13:45Bye.
01:13:46Bye.
