Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Once upon a time, the kingdom of Mercia is at war. Every man must stand and fight.
00:00:07No! No! No! Please! Please! I don't want to go to war! Spare me!
00:00:15I'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? Yes?
00:00:58My belly hurts. I think I need to go potty.
00:01:01I see.
00:01:03Yes, I...
00:01:04Wait, Mama. It's Papa's birthday today.
00:01:08I 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, Sophie. We can't afford beef. Maybe we could have a chicken. Your favorite chicken pie.
00:01:30Huzzah! Thank you, Mom. I love you.
00:01:34I love you.
00:01:39Bye!
00:01:41Bye!
00:01:42Bye!
00:01:43Bye!
00:01:44Bye!
00:01:58Stand and fight.
00:01:59Take him.
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.
00:02:28Mom!
00:02:46Wait.
00:02:48What?
00:02:50Have you seen my son?
00:02:54Have you seen Arthur?
00:02:56The baron's men took him.
00:02:58What?
00:02:58They're marching him to the border.
00:03:00They're sending him to war.
00:03:01No.
00:03:03No.
00:03:04No.
00:03:05Jane.
00:03:16Jane.
00:03:18You're hurt.
00:03:19Carl.
00:03:20They took him.
00:03:22We have to get him.
00:03:24He's only 13.
00:03:25He won't survive on the battlefield.
00:03:27Let's go.
00:03:30No?
00:03:30You seen a boy?
00:03:31You seen Arthur?
00:03:32You seen our son?
00:03:32Right here with soldier.
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.
00:03:41Not 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.
00:04:09It's all my fault I killed him.
00:04:13I should never have let him go to the butchers by himself.
00:04:16It's...
00:04:16Shut up, wench!
00:04:17Or I'll make you join him real soon!
00:04:22Comet now!
00:04:23Foolish as they are, we can't just kill as we wish!
00:04:28Comet boy from filth like you?
00:04:30He was doomed from the moment he met us!
00:04:32He's right.
00:04:40It'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!
00:04:47Arthur.
00:04:51Where are you?
00:04:52No!
00:05:02I have a feeling I know why you're here.
00:05:30Your Majesty, nothing escapes you.
00:05:34Nothing does escape me.
00:05:36Which is why I've already sent word out to Stamford.
00:05:40You'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.
00:06:20I won't let you down, sir.
00:06:30I miss you.
00:06:34Robert, my sweet nephew.
00:06:36Here.
00:06:37All my wages.
00:06:41I'm depending on you.
00:06:43You work for the Baron now, so please help me find your cousin.
00:06:46And I beg of you.
00:06:49Aunt Jane.
00:06:51My connections are expensive.
00:06:53I'll look into it.
00:06:54But not today.
00:06:55The Duke is coming to Stamford.
00:06:57Everything has to be perfect.
00:07:00The Duke is coming.
00:07:02Robert, maybe you can ask the Duke to help me find my son.
00:07:06I've heard that the Duke is a great knight in battle.
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.
00:07:14Or have you lost your wits?
00:07:17Ask the Duke for help.
00:07:19Who do you think you are?
00:07:21Even the Baron wouldn't dare trouble the Duke for such trifles.
00:07:25Robert, please just have him take a look.
00:07:28It's your own fault you lost your son.
00:07:42Don't blame other people for your own negligence.
00:07:45It is my fault.
00:07:46I should have never let him out of my sight.
00:07:48I regret it every single day.
00:07:50But you promised that if I gave you all of my wages, you would help me find my son.
00:07:56I told you not today.
00:08:00The Duke could be here any second.
00:08:02Get lost before he sees your ugly face.
00:08:08The Duke is here.
00:08:10Go.
00:08:11Get.
00:08:11Get.
00:08:11Get.
00:08:11Get.
00:08:11Get.
00:08:12Get.
00:08:12Get.
00:08:12Get.
00:08:13Get.
00:08:13Get.
00:08:13Get.
00:08:14Get.
00:08:14Get.
00:08:15Get.
00:08:15Get.
00:08:16Get.
00:08:16Get.
00:08:16Get.
00:08:17Get.
00:08:17Get.
00:08:18Get.
00:08:19Get.
00:08:21Get.
00:08:22Get.
00:08:22That's the Duke.
00:08:23He's the one that defeated the five kingdoms.
00:08:27The king treats him like a son.
00:08:49Presenting 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?
00:09:23Your grace, it was I who was sending you to the battlefield.
00:09:26I beg for your forgiveness.
00:09:29It was on the battlefield that I earned my honor.
00:09:32You are too kind, your grace.
00:09:33I'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.
00:09:52May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.
00:09:58Could this be me?
00:10:09Find who this belongs to.
00:10:11I will see to this personally.
00:10:16Mom, where are you?
00:10:19The Duke of Mercia has come to the baron's manor.
00:10:25The 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, then there's a chance.
00:10:40Then possibly the Duke is my author.
00:10:43Don't be stupid.
00:10:48This is the Duke, second in authority only to the king.
00:10:52How could a man like that be your son?
00:10:55Your son probably died on the battlefield.
00:10:58Stop being delusional.
00:11:01No.
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.
00:11:28Arthur.
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.
00:12:33Just let me speak to him.
00:12:35Let me show him this.
00:12:38Robert!
00:12:51Robert!
00:12:52Don't!
00:12:52Not while the Duke is here.
00:12:55Robert!
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.
00:13:03You're a worthless piece of junk.
00:13:06Robert.
00:13:07We're family.
00:13:08We're supposed to help each other.
00:13:11But you're fun.
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.
00:13:24It's pathetic, really.
00:13:25I gave all of my wages so that you could find Arthur and you...
00:13:32You never even planned to find Arthur.
00:13:37You never even thought to look for him.
00:13:39You 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...
00:13:58Mother, no!
00:14:04Mother, no!
00:14:06Ow!
00:14:06No!
00:14:09Come, Mother.
00:14:10Let's go.
00:14:11Oh, 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.
00:14:29Arthur, my brother, could it really be you?
00:14:48Your grace, my Lord.
00:14:51My Lord.
00:14:59Oh, 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.
00:15:28Fill yourself up.
00:15:33Why does she seem so familiar?
00:15:36It 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.
00:15:56It's only going to get worse.
00:15:58Now that Robert is butler to the burial?
00:16:03Mother?
00:16:04Father?
00:16:08This place is so familiar to me.
00:16:10And it's strategic.
00:16:13I'll build the new fort here.
00:16:15See to it that all the families along this road are asked to leave.
00:16:18And compensate them well.
00:16:19I will start the process right away.
00:16:28Father?
00:16:29Father?
00:16:30Yeah?
00:16:31What did the Duke say?
00:16:32Did he...
00:16:34Mother?
00:16:37What?
00:16:37I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.
00:16:41No.
00:16:43He does...
00:16:43He does resemble him, yes, but...
00:16:46He 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.
00:17:07Oh.
00:17:08Oh, your grace.
00:17:14I dare say you look as handsome as ever.
00:17:18These clothes are much more comfortable.
00:17:25Leave me.
00:17:26I wish to explore the city by myself.
00:17:28See if anything can jog my memory.
00:17:30Yes, your grace.
00:17:31Yes.
00:17:31Yes.
00:17:31Yes.
00:17:31Yes.
00:17:31Yes.
00:17:31Yes.
00:17:31Yes.
00:17:31Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:32Yes.
00:17:38Oh, it must be Anna.
00:17:41She must have forgot something.
00:17:44Anna?
00:17:53What are you all doing here?
00:17:55Especially 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.
00:18:06So I can offer you a fresh loaf.
00:18:08You call this food?
00:18:10The baron's dogs wouldn't eat this.
00:18:18But fortune favors the undeserving.
00:18:22Now you'll be able to buy some real food.
00:18:25What do you mean, Laura?
00:18:27Tell them, Robert.
00:18:33Ah!
00:18:36It really is a shack, but 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.
00:18:52But you will be well compensated for the trouble.
00:18:57Just sign here and you'll receive 20 gold pieces.
00:19:03As your brother, I should be entitled to half.
00:19:06But 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.
00:19:14No.
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, not for nothing.
00:19:21Then you are dafter than I thought.
00:19:24Let me remind you, your 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.
00:19:37We won't give up hope.
00:19:38Not for any penny coin.
00:19:39You don't get a say.
00:19:41The order comes from above.
00:19:42Enough of this insolence.
00:19:44Leave my house at once.
00:19:45Leave my house.
00:19:46Carl.
00:19:51Carl, you're right.
00:19:52We are family.
00:19:56We are supposed to support each other.
00:19:58And if you can't do that, then leave.
00:20:00Then you've chosen death.
00:20:01So be it.
00:20:06This place really does feel so familiar.
00:20:13What?
00:20:15What are you doing?
00:20:15I'll tell you this one last time.
00:20:22Sign a damn contract or I'll beat you to death.
00:20:25You are his brother.
00:20:26How can you do this to him?
00:20:27No man as useless as him deserves to be my brother.
00:20:35Sign it now.
00:20:35No.
00:20:37No.
00:20:38No.
00:20:38No.
00:20:39No.
00:20:39No.
00:20:39No.
00:20:40No.
00:20:40No.
00:20:41No.
00:20:41No.
00:20:42No.
00:20:42No.
00:20:43No.
00:20:44No.
00:20:45No.
00:20:49Stop it.
00:21:02Stop it.
00:21:03That's an order.
00:21:06What's a peasant like you doing here?
00:21:09Cross me and I'll beat you up too.
00:21:11You know who my son works for?
00:21:12The Baron.
00:21:13We're here to seize this land off his orders.
00:21:16So you better stay out of our affairs.
00:21:18So you're the Baron's henchman.
00:21:20I told them to see that every family is compensated fairly.
00:21:24And this is how you choose to do it?
00:21:26Good folks, you have my word, I will make this matter right.
00:21:36Lord Benjamin requests your land to build a new fort, but we will provide whatever is
00:21:42necessary for you.
00:21:42Do you know the Baron?
00:21:44Could you plead to him on our behalf, please?
00:21:47All we ask is that we remain here.
00:21:49We cannot leave our home, please.
00:21:50Rest assured, you will be well compensated if you choose to depart.
00:21:56No, we don't want coin.
00:21:58This is my son's home.
00:22:00If it's torn down, he will never find his way home.
00:22:03Your son was taken, you say?
00:22:05Yes, he was only 13 years old.
00:22:08Taken far too young, conscripted by the Baron's soldiers.
00:22:11If we leave, he'll never find his way back.
00:22:16Please.
00:22:18Please, I beg of you.
00:22:23He's pinned.
00:22:24Yes, it was a token, a promise that my children and I would always be family together.
00:22:30This one is for you, Arthur.
00:22:41What?
00:22:52Mother.
00:22:53Arthur.
00:22:56Oh, is it you?
00:22:58It's me, mom.
00:23:01I've come home.
00:23:02My boy.
00:23:03Ten long years, we searched for you.
00:23:07And 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?
00:23:31Ten 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?
00:23:43Or 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.
00:24:14No, Robert, surely you understand.
00:24:16You're family.
00:24:17We'd like to celebrate.
00:24:18This low life doesn't deserve anything.
00:24:22I'm done arguing with you with this pigsty.
00:24:27Don't you point your finger at me.
00:24:30I could do much worse.
00:24:32Or do you want me to get my fiance 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!
00:24:45This is a joyous day, and I do not wish to spend it squabbling with you, Bill.
00:24:59Kneel before us, apologize, and be gone.
00:25:06You 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?
00:25:17You better show your respect.
00:25:24Now 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.
00:25:35You 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.
00:25:53Are you mad?
00:25:54Who do you think you are?
00:25:56The Duke?
00:25:57Pulling rank like you're anything special.
00:26:01I dare say I'm special enough that even Lord Benjamin would kneel before me.
00:26:05What's that I hear about the Baron?
00:26:07Lord Benjamin, sir, the Duke has dismissed his guards and gone on a stroll.
00:26:16Where to?
00:26:16Around 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.
00:26:24What'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 son even hit me.
00:26:50You 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.
00:27:12You'll pay for what you've done.
00:27:14Bring him to the dungeons.
00:27:17I'll teach him a lesson.
00:27:18No, 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.
00:27:34In fact, why don't you ask him who I am?
00:27:37That's enough.
00:27:38Guards, seize him.
00:27:40No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:27:42Don't take him!
00:27:43No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:27:44Please 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.
00:27:59Is that right?
00:28:00No.
00:28:00Fine.
00:28:01I'll go with you, but don't say I didn't warn you.
00:28:04Watch your tongue, but don't worry.
00:28:07Soon, you'll be too busy screaming in my dungeon to talk back.
00:28:11Please, please don't hurt him.
00:28:13No, Arthur.
00:28:14Father, mother, don't worry.
00:28:16I'll be back very soon.
00:28:18You think you're coming back?
00:28:20Take him away.
00:28:24Take your hands out my son!
00:28:26Well, well, I 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.
00:28:35What happened here?
00:28:47Lord Benjamin, it was all your butlers doing, and your cousin, Lady Edith.
00:28:54They even took my son to the dungeon!
00:28:56Your son?
00:29:00Tall and with dark hair?
00:29:05We need to go!
00:29:08Now!
00:29:11God, Carl, what are we going to do?
00:29:12Because Arthur's gone.
00:29:14Man, Hannah's 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 surely can't.
00:29:22We have to try, Carl, please.
00:29:25You're right.
00:29:26You're right, we have to try.
00:29:27We have to find our son.
00:29:33What happened to that fire?
00:29:34That rage!
00:29:36Scared of the consequences now, runt!
00:29:38Consequences?
00:29:40For giving you what you deserve.
00:29:47Watch 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.
00:30:01I will not spare you.
00:30:02I will not spare you.
00:30:03Me needing sparing from you.
00:30:06You've gone mad.
00:30:12It 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.
00:30:30You insolent brat!
00:30:31What are you doing?
00:30:35Reminding 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.
00:31:00Consider it your warning cousin.
00:31:00The goal of you threatening me and then calling yourself my cousin.
00:31:08I won't let you off easy.
00:31:10Oh, you 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, flog him!
00:31:22Hold it!
00:31:25You're not flogging anyone.
00:31:27Hold 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.
00:31:47Cousin Benjamin, you must see to it that he is punished.
00:31:51Stopped oinking once the Baron showed up, hmm?
00:31:54Your 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.
00:32:37You 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.
00:32:54I've lost your mind.
00:32:56Do you know who this man is?
00:33:02Do you know who this man is?
00:33:04He's nothing but a beggar, the son of peasants.
00:33:07Get 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?
00:33:26Sir, you must be mistaken.
00:33:29Rightly so.
00:33:30He's a peasant, a beggar.
00:33:32How could 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?
00:33:46Shut it, Wellesley.
00:33:48You have no right to speak.
00:33:50That lowlife's the duke?
00:33:52Carl's son is the duke?
00:33:54Oh, no.
00:33:54No.
00:33:55George, what have we done?
00:33:57Lord Venture, it seems that you've neglected your duties as bearing.
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.
00:34:24Their wrongdoings?
00:34:26I 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 will 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.
00:34:48See, your grace, I've been a fool.
00:34:52Punish me, flog me as you will, but let me live.
00:34:57We are from the same family, Duke Arthur.
00:35:01I don't want to die.
00:35:04Young Arthur, my son had just become a butler.
00:35:07He's only just delivered us from the clutches of poverty.
00:35:10Please, we adore him so, you must kill him or exile him.
00:35:16Please, 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?
00:35:33Have 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?
00:35:46And cousin Robert?
00:35:48What happened to making me see the consequences of my actions?
00:35:51Did you pity your poor cousin Ned?
00:35:54I've seen you for what you are.
00:35:56Shameless and wretched scum.
00:36:00You are unfit to live.
00:36:04Have them dealt with, and think about what you've done.
00:36:07You're meant to be noble, not only in your actions, but in your name.
00:36:12See that your people behave, or I'll have your title removed.
00:36:16I will see to them personally.
00:36:19Oh, please. Oh, sir. Please.
00:36:22Robert deceived me. It's all his fault.
00:36:25Please, Duke Arthur.
00:36:26Spare me.
00:36:27I'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 off our engagement.
00:36:41From this moment onward, I'll have nothing to do with you.
00:36:45I beg of you, oh great and honorable Duke.
00:36:47Forgive me.
00:36:49Don't you want to see what I have to offer?
00:36:53Save it, my sloth.
00:36:55Lord Benjamin.
00:36:57Make sure these affirmments never cross my path again.
00:37:02They make me sick.
00:37:07Guards!
00:37:08Lock them up.
00:37:09Cousin, please!
00:37:11Won't you speak to him?
00:37:13Just let me go.
00:37:14I won't ever do it again.
00:37:17No!
00:37:18No!
00:37:19No!
00:37:19Sir!
00:37:20Please!
00:37:20Please!
00:37:21Please!
00:37:21Please!
00:37:21Please!
00:37:22Please!
00:37:22No!
00:37:23In good news, Benjamin, I found my parents.
00:37:32That is wonderful, Your Grace.
00:37:35What a blessed day it is.
00:37:37I wish to host a banquet tonight.
00:37:38Introduce my parents to upper society.
00:37:43Life has been cruel to them and I wish for them to live happily.
00:37:47Oh, 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 here, doesn't she?
00:38:01Seems 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.
00:38:13I want to do something special for her.
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 here, doesn't she?
00:38:25Bring me to her.
00:38:26Uh, no, Your Grace.
00:38:27I...
00:38:28What?
00:38:29I thought...
00:38:30I thought that you fancied her, so I...
00:38:32What have you done?
00:38:33Bring me to her right now!
00:38:43You have fine features.
00:38:49For a scullery maid, I can see why he likes you.
00:38:54Mr. Crowley, did... did you need something?
00:38:57Yes, pet.
00:38:59You've been chosen.
00:39:05Take off your clothes.
00:39:06What are you going to do to me?
00:39:09Oh, don't worry. I have no interest in you.
00:39:12I wouldn't dare.
00:39:16Put this on.
00:39:23Perfect.
00:39:25I can see why he chose you in particular.
00:39:28Mr. Crowley, what's all this about?
00:39:30The Baron has ordered you to meet another client.
00:39:34A big man.
00:39:35You are to be his mistress.
00:39:37To satisfy his physical needs, of course.
00:39:41An honor for a common whore like you.
00:39:44No, I refuse.
00:39:47You don't have a choice.
00:39:49Baron's orders.
00:39:54Do you even know who you are serving?
00:39:55It is the Duke.
00:39:57The one you poured tea on.
00:39:58What? The Duke?
00:40:00Aw, dumb already, are you?
00:40:03Still think you can say no, whore?
00:40:04Please, I don't want to.
00:40:11It's a good opportunity, damn it.
00:40:15Mr. Crowley, I'm betrothed.
00:40:18I 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?
00:40:28I'm sorry.
00:40:40Serve the Duke, and the money's yours.
00:40:42You'll have no short supply of expensive little trinkets.
00:40:46I would never sell my body, not for a few coppers, not for anything.
00:41:02I am a woman of honor.
00:41:04Honor is for people who deserve it, not a lowly whore like you.
00:41:08You!
00:41:19Oh, no!
00:41:20Oh, no!
00:41:20You don't get to say no!
00:41:22Oh, my God, please!
00:41:24Oh, no!
00:41:24Hands off of her!
00:41:25Oh, no!
00:41:26Oh, no!
00:41:26You don't get to say no!
00:41:28Oh, my God, please!
00:41:30Oh!
00:41:30Hands off of her!
00:41:35He didn't hurt you, did he?
00:41:36Are you the Duke, sir?
00:41:40Sir, what is the meaning of this?
00:41:41You imbecile!
00:41:44But, sir, you said...
00:41:48Have 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.
00:41:59Listen!
00:42:02Apologize to her, or I'll have you fired.
00:42:06Apologize, sir, but she's a lowly scullery maid.
00:42:10She was out of line!
00:42:14A lowly maid?
00:42:16Mark my words, she'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?
00:42:33Yes, Anna.
00:42:35I've come back to protect you, and mother, and father.
00:42:40Arthur!
00:42:41Where have you been all these years?
00:42:42You're just too terribly.
00:42:45There, there.
00:42:47Let me deal with this man first.
00:42:54Once 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, sir, Duke, I was wrong.
00:43:09I 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.
00:43:29No, it was Benjamin, the Baron.
00:43:31Lord!
00:43:32He asked me to.
00:43:33No, I didn't.
00:43:35God, throw him into the dungeon.
00:43:37No, no, please.
00:43:38Have him away.
00:43:39No, sir.
00:43:40No, no.
00:43:45Anna, tell me truly.
00:43:48Are you all right?
00:43:49Yes, I am now because you're back and 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.
00:44:13I'll bring them here, okay?
00:44:16Duke Arthur, I believe that your parents are currently at the Moors.
00:44:20John Moore has been engaged to your sister for some time.
00:44:25Yes, John and I are engaged, but...
00:44:28He's your fiancé, Anna, so 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 and invite John Moore.
00:44:40I'll speak to the king, see if he can grant him a noble title.
00:44:46As you wish, Duke Arthur.
00:44:56Is that the Moors' home?
00:44:57Fine place for a merchant family, but they'll be able to afford better very soon.
00:45:02Well, we're here.
00:45:06Yeah.
00:45:07The home of our supposed son-in-law.
00:45:09Yeah.
00:45:18You tottering fool.
00:45:21Why have you come back?
00:45:25John, this is your fiancé's father.
00:45:27You will call me Mr. Moore.
00:45:33And you are nothing to me.
00:45:34John!
00:45:35That's Mr. Moore.
00:45:37Shut up.
00:45:39I'm sorry.
00:45:40Mr. Moore, please, let'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, but circumstances have changed.
00:46:02Do you think my father would want me marrying someone that 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, isn't that right?
00:46:14Alms 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 caja and take him out of here.
00:46:34I'd like to see you try.
00:46:37I'd like to see you try.
00:46:39Arthur, my boy, they set you free.
00:46:47Rightfully so, father.
00:46:48Oh, Arthur, it's so good to see you alive and well.
00:46:52Father, mother, Robert'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.
00:47:11Now, 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, piss your pants?
00:47:24Say that again.
00:47:32If you think I'm gonna take it easy on you because you're engaged to my sister,
00:47:36then you'd be wrong.
00:47:38Let go of me, you dirty dog.
00:47:44Resulting to violence now, are we?
00:47:47Like the lowlife you are.
00:47:50Come on then.
00:47:51Hit me.
00:47:53And you regret ever being born.
00:47:54Do you think that can stop me?
00:47:57Who do you think you are?
00:47:59Oh, it's just a peasant.
00:48:09John, my 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.
00:48:27No one will be able to tell us what to do.
00:48:30No one will be able to say no to us.
00:48:32Of 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.
00:48:44Don't waste your time with these peasants.
00:48:46Let's go, John.
00:48:46Lady Adela, I'm afraid we must deal with these peasants first.
00:48:50As dirty as they are, this is Arthur, honest brother.
00:48:54And now that I'm rich, he wants to force me to marry his sister.
00:48:58What did you say?
00:49:01Oh, I see.
00:49:02You'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.
00:49:12Oh, 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.
00:49:23Adela.
00:49:25I can't believe I've been touched by a dirty beggar.
00:49:29Have you no manners around 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.
00:49:42My 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.
00:49:55Going 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.
00:50:05Leeching off of him?
00:50:09I 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.
00:50:24No!
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 now.
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.
00:50:51We'll go.
00:50:53But best you remember, it 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.
00:51:11My word, unfit for you.
00:51:15Let's see, servant, 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, if you ever speak to us again, I will have your legs cut off.
00:51:37Come now.
00:51:38We have a banquet to attend.
00:51:49That's the Moors for you.
00:51:50Some coin and they forget everything that we've ever done for them.
00:51:54Oh, Arthur, I wish we had had a better reception for you.
00:51:58Oh, 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...
00:52:10Please, 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.
00:52:18It's been paid for.
00:52:19But the Baron's Manor...
00:52:21Arthur, we...
00:52:22Haven't you heard the Duke will be there?
00:52:24We can't possibly impose, it's...
00:52:28Like I said, mother.
00:52:29Don't worry.
00:52:30You'll see.
00:52:31You'll see.
00:52:33Lady 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.
00:52:52As the Baron of Stanford, my father is very close to the Duke.
00:52:56It's likely he was the one to recommend John in the first place.
00:52:59Of 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.
00:53:12What do you mean to ask, Adela?
00:53:14Why would someone like the Duke come to Stanford in the first place?
00:53:18Well, Stanford 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.
00:53:26He was separated from them when he was a child.
00:53:30Even this banquet, I hear, is all for them.
00:53:33Must be good, noble people to rear such a fine man like the Duke.
00:53:37We must make a good impression.
00:53:47How did those peasants get in?
00:54:07This banquet, I've arranged it all for you.
00:54:10I'll introduce you to everyone shortly.
00:54:12Our third?
00:54:15Don't just, what do you mean for us?
00:54:18Mother, I'm serious.
00:54:21This is all for you.
00:54:22But, how could you have arranged all this?
00:54:25How much money did you spend?
00:54:27Money has nothing to do with it, father.
00:54:30I just want to see you happy.
00:54:31We are happy, truly happy.
00:54:35We're finally all together again.
00:54:41John, I thought you told them to get lost.
00:54:44Why are they back?
00:54:45John, I thought you told them to get lost.
00:54:51Why are they back?
00:54:52Damn lowlives.
00:54:54They must have tailed the scene.
00:54:57I knew those ill-bred dogs would go away that easily.
00:55:00Scoundrels, all.
00:55:02Mrs. Moore, rest easy.
00:55:06This banquet is held on the Duke's orders,
00:55:08and father asked me to see that our guests enjoy themselves.
00:55:13I have every authority to throw them out.
00:55:19Come.
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.
00:55:46This 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, John 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.
00:56:11Lowborn as I may be, I'm still more noble than a harlot like you.
00:56:16You wench.
00:56:17I will not let you talk to Lady Adela like this.
00:56:21Apologize right now.
00:56:22I owe her nothing of the sort.
00:56:24She is the one who's courting an engaged man.
00:56:27I told your parents and your disgusting beggar of a brother I 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 who would abandon his fiance just to chase after some harlot's coin.
00:56:47You dirty bitch.
00:56:52That'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?
00:57:03You're right, mother.
00:57:05We ought to slap some sense into them.
00:57:07Anna, look at yourself.
00:57:09You're nothing compared to Lady Adela.
00:57:12It's no wonder I chose her.
00:57:15Lady Adela is Lord Benjamin's daughter.
00:57:18What do you have that Lady Adela doesn't?
00:57:23Besides this useless beggar of a brother.
00:57:27Do not insult my brother.
00:57:29He is more noble than any of you.
00:57:38All this dirty work must have done you in.
00:57:42A beggar like him.
00:57:43You lowly peasants.
00:57:46None of you deserve to talk to us.
00:57:48Get out or we'll throw you out with force.
00:57:53Get out or we'll throw you out with force.
00:57:56It is you who ought to be thrown out.
00:58:03Hmm.
00:58:04What a pretty money sucking leech.
00:58:09I would tell her.
00:58:10I'm disgusted by the implication.
00:58:13Despite her features, a maid that cleans chamber parts all day is more fit to marry a stable boy.
00:58:20Say that again and I'll make you pay.
00:58:24Oh no.
00:58:26What are you going to do?
00:58:28Hit me?
00:58:29Well come on then.
00:58:30Have at it.
00:58:32I 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.
00:58:44You fill it.
00:58:46You actually asked for it.
00:58:49You asked for it.
00:58:50I obliged.
00:58:55Lord Benjamin, the Duke has arrived.
00:58:58He's here already.
00:58:59We have to go.
00:59:00You asked for it.
00:59:02I am to be a noble and you will not offend me again.
00:59:06Why 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.
00:59:15On your knees.
00:59:16And I demand you apologize to John now.
00:59:19And your filthy parents too.
00:59:22Down.
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.
00:59:29You'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.
00:59:43We've been gracious enough letting the matter go.
00:59:46Yet 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.
00:59:54Let's add a few tears to their teary reunion.
00:59:57Guards.
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.
01:00:10I think if that's the case we ought to keep him alive.
01:00:13He's already a useless beggar.
01:00:15We ought to break his legs and keep him that way.
01:00:18Lisa.
01:00:19Lady Moore.
01:00:20Please.
01:00:22I 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.
01:00:28I beg of you apologize.
01:00:30Please.
01:00:32You'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 mouth.
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.
01:00:52In honor of us all being together again.
01:00:53You have every right to enjoy yourself.
01:00:57And my sister was correct.
01:00:59You ought to apologize for your poor behavior and I ought to have you thrown out.
01:01:03Soon you'll be kneeling before us begging for the forgiveness.
01:01:06We have every right to withhold.
01:01:08A pity to have a son like him.
01:01:11Imagine spending 10 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.
01:01:21Oh yes, happy.
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.
01:01:35Seize them.
01:01:36No, no, please 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.
01:02:11It'd be an honor for him to lay eyes on the gentlemen before he crushes them like the rats they are.
01:02:18Oh, no, I can't wait.
01:02:21All right, how unfortunate it had to come to this.
01:02:24Yes, how 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, he'll have you all beheaded.
01:02:36No.
01:02:36Oh, how lucky it is to be so simple-minded.
01:02:42You, half-dead cauders.
01:02:44And you, harlot.
01:02:48Any last words?
01:02:50No teary goodbyes?
01:02:52Or do you wish to die with him?
01:02:55John, please.
01:02:56Arthur was just impulsive.
01:02:58Please put in a good word for him.
01:03:00Get 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!
01:03:11John!
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.
01:03:38Let it be known, I plan to exile the Moore family from the good town of Stanford.
01:03:49Oh, you've gone mad. Truly mad.
01:03:52Lady Adela, have your men restrain him for the safety of your guests and have him flogged in the dungeon.
01:04:02What's this again about the dungeons?
01:04:04Lord Benjamin, you've finally come.
01:04:09My lord, we've been troubled so by these lowly peasants.
01:04:12Father, it's them. I say we take them to the dungeons.
01:04:15This is the duke's banquet, Adela. I will not tolerate your antics.
01:04:26Pardon me, Father. It seems I've been lax, for these lowly, dirty servants have snuck in.
01:04:32Lowly, dirty servants?
01:04:34Yes, Father. The Mr. and Mrs. are servants and so is the daughter. And he's a beggar. A vile, disgusting man.
01:04:46Perhaps we could send them away with some scraps from the kitchens. I dare say be better than anything they've ever tasted.
01:04:52Oh, Father, please allow me to see it. I'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.
01:05:08Your Grace, at your service.
01:05:12Hail to his grace, the Duke Arthur.
01:05:22What? That's him. He's Duke Arthur.
01:05:32That's him. He's Duke Arthur.
01:05:37Lord Benjamin, I was promised a warm welcome. What is all of this?
01:05:42I'll see to it, Your Grace. My boy.
01:05:46What did the parents say?
01:05:47Is it Duke Arthur that he just called you?
01:05:49What? What?
01:05:52Sir. Madam. Please.
01:05:56Benjamin.
01:05:58At your service.
01:05:59I don't understand. Are you really?
01:06:02Yes, Father.
01:06:06I'm the Duke.
01:06:07My book? The Duke?
01:06:11That's my son. That's my son.
01:06:13He's a Duke.
01:06:14What 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. You must be mistaken.
01:06:31You stupid girl. How could I be wrong?
01:06:35And you, you ought to be ashamed. How dare you do this to his grace, Duke Arthur?
01:06:41No. It can't be. Father, tell me it's a joke. It simply can't be.
01:06:47Get on your knees, girl. And maybe he'll forgive you.
01:06:53No. You said that the Duke was going to give John a title. Why would John call off the engagement to his sister?
01:06:58You said that the Duke was going to give John a title.
01:07:00You said that the Duke was going to give John a title.
01:07:01Maybe this will get through your thick skull.
01:07:04He is the Duke. The one and only.
01:07:07Guards, take her away until she has learned her lesson.
01:07:11Guards, take her away until she has learned her lesson.
01:07:18No. Father, no. He can't be. He can't be the Duke. He's the Duke.
01:07:27Your grace, I must apologize.
01:07:30That's enough. Your family has played your hand for me.
01:07:33Duke Arthur, sir.
01:07:36Why, certainly. My son is still engaged to the Wellesley's daughter. Our connection is nothing to scoff at.
01:07:43Mother, my brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.
01:07:50My brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.
01:07:54Will be set for life. Oh, married to the sister of the Duke. Oh, goodness.
01:08:00That must be why you want to give me a noble title. So I can marry Anna.
01:08:05Anna, can you believe it? Your brother, a Duke.
01:08:08What does that have to do with you?
01:08:10It has everything to do with me, darling. You're my fiancé, remember?
01:08:15Don't forget about me just because your brother's a Duke now.
01:08:17You are truly shameless, John.
01:08:20Don't be like that, my dear, darling fiancé.
01:08:23Fiancé, have you forgotten what you just called me? A dirty whore? Only fit to wet his table boy. Isn't that right?
01:08:32Oh, Anna, forgive him, would you? 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, petty. That's rich coming from you.
01:08:47Oh, Duke Arthur. My brother, I must apologize for what I said. I'll apologize to Anna.
01:08:55There is no need. I have no wish to hear anything further from you.
01:08:58The woman has spoken, John. It seems my sister disdains your vile habits.
01:09:04Anna, this is all my fault. We grew up together, didn't we? I loved you. I did.
01:09:11This has all been a big misunderstanding, of course. I'm sure you can forgive me. Please, give me another chance.
01:09:19Yes, dear, just a misunderstanding. Let's put it all behind us now, shall we?
01:09:25Yeah. Forgive you. I don't think I will. It 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. I wish for you to be gone and never come back.
01:09:42Anna, forgive me. You're better than this.
01:09:48Please, forgive me. You're better than this.
01:09:57Leave my sister alone, scum. Your apology means nothing.
01:10:00Please, your grace, Duke Arthur. It's all my fault. I've wronged you. I admit it. I beg your pardon.
01:10:09Mr. Wesley, madam, please ask Arthur to show us mercy. I was betrothed to Anna.
01:10:16Anna, I've shown her much kindness. Mother, please ask him to forgive me. I cannot live without Anna.
01:10:25Jane, please. I even got you the job at the Baron's Manor. Are you going to be so cruel as to forget
01:10:32everything I've done for you that John's done for you? A bit of compassion for an old friend?
01:10:38Yes, Mr. Wesley, please. I'll do anything for her. I'll give her whatever she wants. If you just please
01:10:46forgive my one transgression. How dare you ask for compassion?
01:10:51How dare you ask for compassion? Have you shown any compassion to my father? To my mother? Those 10
01:11:02long years I was gone. Did you help them at all? Did you give them any aid? You speak of them as an old
01:11:09friend, as if they have ever forsaken you. But you, had I not been announced as the Duke, you would have
01:11:15kicked them to the ground and spit on their bodies. You called off my sister's engagement for the first
01:11:21noble lady you saw. You do not deserve my mercy. Duke, Arthur, I- Silence! I've seen you at your worst.
01:11:31I've seen how you treated me. My father, my mother, Anna. You are a shameless, filthy villain. Be gone.
01:11:40Lord Benjamin. Yes, sir. Have the Moors removed from the manor.
01:11:51Lord Benjamin. Yes, sir. Have the Moors removed from the manor and forbid anyone from doing business
01:11:58with them in the town of Stanford. Yes, sir.
01:12:01Much better. Father. Mother.
01:12:12Anna. Let us enjoy this banquet in peace.
01:12:16Arthur, this banquet is lovely, thank you. But nothing is better than us being reunited
01:12:26as a family. And together we'll be forever.
