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