00:00:00Who's the Duke? Second in authority only to the king.

00:00:04Your son is not coming back.

00:00:07No!

00:00:08Because he's dead.

00:00:10It's your own fault you lost your son.

00:00:13I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.

00:00:15He didn't recognize the necklace.

00:00:17Your land has been seized.

00:00:19What?

00:00:20No, this is our family home!

00:00:21Sign it, now!

00:00:22No.

00:00:23Ah!

00:00:24Stop it!

00:00:27Your son was taken, you say?

00:00:28Could this be me?

00:00:30My memories are faint, clouded by the injury I sustained during the war.

00:00:33Say goodbye to your son.

00:00:35That woman...

00:00:36Possibly the Duke is my Arthur.

00:00:45Once upon a time, the Kingdom of Mercia is at war.

00:00:49Every man must stand and fight.

00:00:53No!

00:00:54No!

00:00:55No!

00:00:56No!

00:00:57Please!

00:00:58I don't want to go to war!

00:01:00Spare me!

00:01:04I'm scared, Arthur.

00:01:06Will they take you and Papa away too?

00:01:09No.

00:01:10They won't.

00:01:11Okay?

00:01:13I got something for both of you.

00:01:16I had these blessed by the church today.

00:01:19This one is for you, Arthur.

00:01:23And this one, Anna, is for you.

00:01:24May God bless us, and guide us, and keep us together as one family.

00:01:33Thank you, Mom.

00:01:34Thank you, Mom.

00:01:35I love you.

00:01:36Mama?

00:01:37Yes?

00:01:38My belly hurts.

00:01:39I think I need to go potty.

00:01:41I think I need to go potty.

00:01:42I see.

00:01:43Yes, I...

00:01:44Wait.

00:01:45Mama.

00:01:46It's Papa's birthday today.

00:01:47I was wondering if I could have some coins so I could get a little, little bit of beef.

00:01:54Just a little bit.

00:01:55I'm sorry, sweetie.

00:01:56We can't afford beef.

00:01:57Maybe we could have chicken.

00:01:58Your favorite chicken pie.

00:01:59Huzzah!

00:02:00Thank you, Mom.

00:02:01I love you.

00:02:02I love you.

00:02:03Bye!

00:02:04Bye!

00:02:05Bye!

00:02:06Bye!

00:02:07Bye!

00:02:08Bye!

00:02:09Bye!

00:02:10Bye!

00:02:11Bye!

00:02:12Bye!

00:02:13Bye!

00:02:14Bye!

00:02:15Bye!

00:02:16Bye!

00:02:17Bye!

00:02:18Bye!

00:02:19Bye!

00:02:20Bye!

00:02:21Bye!

00:02:22Bye!

00:02:23Bye!

00:02:24Bye!

00:02:42Every man must stand and fight.

00:02:45Take him.

00:02:46Stop!

00:02:47No!

00:02:48I'm only 13!

00:02:49Let me go!

00:02:50Mama!

00:02:54Arthur.

00:02:55Arthur.

00:02:56Arthur.

00:02:57Arthur should be here by now.

00:02:59Where is he?

00:03:04Arthur!

00:03:05Mom!

00:03:16Mama!

00:03:17Mama!

00:03:31Wait.

00:03:37Have you seen my son?

00:03:39Have you seen Arthur?

00:03:41The baronsmen took him.

00:03:43What?

00:03:44They're marching him to the border.

00:03:45They're sending him to war.

00:03:46No!

00:03:47No!

00:03:48No!

00:03:49No!

00:03:50Here!

00:04:01Jane!

00:04:02You're hurt!

00:04:04Girl!

00:04:05They took him!

00:04:06Wait!

00:04:07We have to get him!

00:04:08He's only 13.

00:04:09He wants to arrive on the battlefield.

00:04:12Let's go.

00:04:13He...

00:04:14No?

00:04:15Have you seen a boy?

00:04:16Have you seen Arthur?

00:04:17Have you seen our son?

00:04:18Right here with...

00:04:19With...

00:04:20With soldier.

00:04:21Hey!

00:04:22Are you soldiers of the baron?

00:04:23Have you seen a boy?

00:04:24A strong lad?

00:04:25Brown hair?

00:04:26About this tall?

00:04:27The boy we took from the market, is it?

00:04:28Yes.

00:04:29Yes.

00:04:30Yes, that's him.

00:04:31Where is he?

00:04:32Your boy is either dead or going to be soon.

00:04:34He can't be.

00:04:35You're lying.

00:04:36Away with you, woman!

00:04:37Give me back my son!

00:04:38The law says that no boy should be conscripted unless he's 16 years old.

00:04:42Arthur's 13!

00:04:43Please!

00:04:44If you didn't want him gone, you should have kept him at home!

00:04:52You have no one to blame but yourself!

00:04:54It's all my fault I killed him.

00:04:57I should never have let him go to the butchers by himself.

00:05:00It's...

00:05:01Shut up, wench!

00:05:02Or I'll make you join him real soon!

00:05:07Comet, now!

00:05:08Foolish as they are!

00:05:09We can't just kill as we wish!

00:05:13Comet boy from filth like you!

00:05:15He was doomed from the moment he met us!

00:05:22He's right.

00:05:24I told my fault he shouldn't have let him alone.

00:05:27You mustn't do this to yourself.

00:05:29We will bring our boy home.

00:05:31Arthur...

00:05:36Where are you?

00:06:01I have a feeling I know why you're here.

00:06:15Your Majesty. Nothing escapes you.

00:06:19Nothing does escape me.

00:06:20Which is why I've already sent word out to Stamford.

00:06:24You'll oversee the building of a new fort to strengthen our borders.

00:06:29The Baron of Stamford will host you until the completion of the project.

00:06:33But your Majesty, my duty as a Duke is to protect...

00:06:35Go, go.

00:06:36Go, my boy.

00:06:37You've fought enough battles for me and did a great service to the kingdom of Mercia.

00:06:48This is why I gave you the title of Duke.

00:06:53Go back to Stamford.

00:06:55Find your family.

00:06:57They would be so proud to see the man you've become.

00:07:01And while you're at it...

00:07:03Build me that castle, eh?

00:07:08I won't let you down, sir.

00:07:09I miss you.

00:07:19Robert, my sweet nephew.

00:07:21Here.

00:07:22All my wages.

00:07:24I'm depending on you.

00:07:27You work for the Baron now, so please help me find your cousin.

00:07:31I beg of you.

00:07:34Aunt Jane.

00:07:35My connections are expensive.

00:07:37I'll look into it, but not today.

00:07:40The Duke is coming to Stamford.

00:07:42Everything has to be perfect.

00:07:44The Duke is coming.

00:07:46Robert, maybe you can ask the Duke to help me find my son.

00:07:51I've heard that the Duke is a great knight in battle,

00:07:53so perhaps you could ask him to see if he recognizes this boy with this necklace.

00:07:57Maybe he knows my Arthur.

00:07:59Have you lost your wits?

00:08:02Ask the Duke for help.

00:08:04Who do you think you are?

00:08:06Even the Baron wouldn't dare trouble the Duke for such trifles.

00:08:10Robert, please just have him take a look.

00:08:24It's your own fault you lost your son.

00:08:27Don't blame other people for your own negligence.

00:08:30It is my fault.

00:08:31I should have never let him out of my sight.

00:08:33I regret it every single day.

00:08:35But you promised that if I gave you all of my wages, you would help me find my son.

00:08:41I told you not today.

00:08:44The Duke could be here any second.

00:08:47Get lost before he sees your ugly face.

00:08:53The Duke is here. Go! Get!

00:09:06That's the Duke.

00:09:08He's the one that defeated the five kingdoms.

00:09:12The king treats him like a son.

00:09:14You wouldn't have a son.

00:09:15I knew we had a son.

00:09:22He's the one that defeated him.

00:09:23He's the one he's at, though...

00:09:25I'll go.

00:09:26I have to go.

00:09:28Presenting his grace, the Duke of Mercia.

00:09:58Welcome, Your Grace.

00:10:01Lord Benjamin, there's no need for such formalities.

00:10:04We've known each other for a decade now, have we not?

00:10:07Your Grace, it was I who was sending you to the battlefield.

00:10:11I beg for your forgiveness.

00:10:13It was on the battlefield that I earned my honor.

00:10:16You are too kind, Your Grace.

00:10:18I've returned to find my family.

00:10:20Well, please tell me who they are and where they reside.

00:10:23I shall have them brought here at once.

00:10:25My memories are faint, clouded by the injury I sustained during the war.

00:10:30But my mother, she wore a pendant like this.

00:10:38May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.

00:10:44Could this be me?

00:10:53Find who this belongs to.

00:10:55I will see to this personally.

00:11:01Mom, where are you?

00:11:03The Duke of Mercia has come to the Baron's Manor.

00:11:09The King must hold him in high regard.

00:11:12They say he's looking for his family.

00:11:14Who could be so lucky as to be the Duke's relative?

00:11:18Pardon to interrupt, but if he's here visiting his family, then there's a chance then possibly the Duke is my Arthur.

00:11:28Don't be stupid.

00:11:32This is the Duke.

00:11:34Second in authority only to the King.

00:11:36How could a man like that be your son?

00:11:39Your son probably died on the battlefield.

00:11:43Stop being delusional.

00:11:46No.

00:11:48I must see the Duke.

00:11:51Have you lost your mind?

00:11:52Do you mind?

00:12:10I just want to make sure he's my Arthur.

00:12:22Did someone call my name just now?

00:12:25Your Grace, it's probably just the wind playing tricks.

00:12:28No one here would dare to speak your name so boldly.

00:12:35What were you thinking?

00:12:37Your actions will bring my family down with you.

00:12:41Robert just became butler.

00:12:43I won't have you ruining things for him.

00:12:46I swear, that was my son. That was Arthur.

00:12:49You have truly gone mad.

00:12:52That was the Duke.

00:12:53The second most important man in the entire kingdom.

00:12:57How could a man of such standing be your son?

00:13:02He looked just like him.

00:13:04I swear that...

00:13:06Ow!

00:13:08Do you mean to get us all hung?

00:13:10Calling the Duke your son?

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

00:13:16Please.

00:13:17Just let me speak to him.

00:13:19Let me show him this.

00:13:33Robert!

00:13:35Robert!

00:13:36Don't!

00:13:37Not while the Duke is here.

00:13:39Robert!

00:13:41What are you doing to my mother?

00:13:43Anna!

00:13:46Give me that back I needed to find Arthur.

00:13:49Worthless piece of junk.

00:13:51Robert, we're family.

00:13:52We're supposed to help each other.

00:13:55You've got your fun.

00:13:56Family?

00:13:58It's bad enough that we share the same blood.

00:14:02My son has risen up through the ranks.

00:14:05While yours only grows poorer and poorer.

00:14:08It's pathetic, really.

00:14:11I know, but I gave all of my wages so that you could find Arthur.

00:14:15And you...

00:14:17You never even planned to find Arthur.

00:14:22You never even thought to look for him.

00:14:24You liar!

00:14:25You cheat!

00:14:27Give me back my coin!

00:14:29Don't touch me with your filthy hands!

00:14:31In this, say goodbye to your son.

00:14:39No!

00:14:42Mother!

00:14:43Mother, no!

00:14:49Mother, no!

00:14:54Come, Mother. Let's go.

00:14:57Oh, Anna, what have I done?

00:14:59We'll never be able to find Arthur enough with this.

00:15:02It's all right.

00:15:03It's all right, Mother. Have you forgotten?

00:15:05I carry one, too.

00:15:09Now, if you truly believe the Duke might be our Arthur,

00:15:13I'll see what I can do.

00:15:25Arthur, my brother, could it really be you?

00:15:29Okay.

00:15:33Your Grace.

00:15:35My Lord.

00:15:36Your Grace.

00:15:37Are you alright?

00:15:50My Lord.

00:15:51Oh, forgive me, Your Grace!

00:15:55Useless girl!

00:15:59Your Grace, are you alright?

00:16:03I'm fine, Lord Benjamin. No need to punish her for a simple mistake.

00:16:07Your kindness humbles us all.

00:16:11Well, don't just sit there. Clean yourself up!

00:16:15Why does she seem so familiar?

00:16:19Seems that I have someone the Duke might want.

00:16:23How could Robert do this to you?

00:16:27He beat you.

00:16:31You're his aunt for crying out loud.

00:16:35Oh, Carl.

00:16:37You know your family has always been cruel to us.

00:16:39It's only gonna get worse now that Robert is butler to the Baron.

00:16:45Mother?

00:16:47Mother?

00:16:49Father?

00:16:51This place is so familiar to me.

00:16:55And it's strategic.

00:16:57I'll build the new fort here.

00:16:59See to it that all the families along this road are asked to leave.

00:17:03And compensate them well.

00:17:05He'll cross us right away.

00:17:13Father!

00:17:15What did the Duke say? Did he...

00:17:17Mother?

00:17:21What?

00:17:23I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.

00:17:25No.

00:17:27He does...

00:17:29He does resemble him, yes, but...

00:17:31He didn't recognize the necklace.

00:17:33No.

00:17:35I'm so sorry.

00:17:37I thought I was him.

00:17:39I wanted to come back and give you the necklace.

00:17:43You know, at least you'll sleep easier knowing this is by your side.

00:17:57Oh, your grace!

00:17:59I dare say you look as handsome as ever.

00:18:01These clothes are much more comfortable.

00:18:09Leave me.

00:18:10I wish to explore the city by myself.

00:18:12See if anything can jog my memory.

00:18:14Yes, your grace.

00:18:15Yes, your grace.

00:18:24Well, it must be Anna. She must have forgot something.

00:18:28Anna?

00:18:38What are you all doing here?

00:18:39Especially after what you did to my wife.

00:18:40Long time no see, brother.

00:18:42Still living in this hovel, huh?

00:18:44Would you like some bread?

00:18:47We were just about to sit down for lunch.

00:18:49So I can offer you a fresh loaf.

00:18:51You call this food?

00:18:54The Baron's dogs wouldn't eat this.

00:19:02But fortune favors the undeserving.

00:19:05Now you'll be able to buy some real food.

00:19:09What do you mean, Laura?

00:19:11Tell them, Robert.

00:19:12Robert.

00:19:21It really is a shack.

00:19:22But luckily it'll be gone soon.

00:19:25Your land has been seized.

00:19:27This entire street will be dug up to make way for the new fort.

00:19:30No.

00:19:31To bolster our defenses.

00:19:33The order came directly from the Duke himself.

00:19:35No.

00:19:36But you will be well compensated for the trouble.

00:19:40What?

00:19:41Just sign here and you'll receive 20 gold pieces.

00:19:45As your brother, I should be entitled to half.

00:19:49But as you have no son, and I have a son, I ought to take two thirds.

00:19:54What?

00:19:55What?

00:19:56No.

00:19:57This is our family home.

00:19:58What?

00:19:59No.

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

00:20:02She's right.

00:20:03We won't give up our land.

00:20:04Not for 20 gold coin.

00:20:05Not for nothing.

00:20:06You are dafter than I thought.

00:20:07Let me remind you, your son is not coming back because he's dead.

00:20:14No!

00:20:15No, no, no.

00:20:16You hold your tongue.

00:20:17Arthur will return.

00:20:18And we will remain here until he does.

00:20:20Yes.

00:20:21We won't give up hope.

00:20:22Not for any penny coin.

00:20:23You don't get a say.

00:20:25The order comes from above.

00:20:26Enough of this insolence.

00:20:28Leave my house at once.

00:20:29Leave my house.

00:20:30Carl.

00:20:35Carl, you're right.

00:20:38We are family.

00:20:40We are supposed to support each other.

00:20:42And if you can't do that, then leave.

00:20:44Then you've chosen death.

00:20:45So be it.

00:20:50This place really does feel so familiar.

00:20:56What?

00:20:59What are you doing?

00:21:04I'll tell you this one last time.

00:21:06Sign the damn contract or I'll beat you to death.

00:21:09You are his brother.

00:21:10How can you do this to him?

00:21:11No man as useless as him deserves to be my brother.

00:21:13Oh!

00:21:14Ow!

00:21:15Sign it now!

00:21:16No!

00:21:17No!

00:21:18No!

00:21:19Stop it!

00:21:20No, no

00:21:33Stop it

00:21:45Stop it. That's an order

00:21:50What's a peasant like you doing here?

00:21:52Cross me and I'll beat you up too. You know who my son works for the Baron

00:21:57We're here to seize this land off his orders. So you better stay out of our affairs. So you're the Baron's henchman. I

00:22:03Told them to see that every family is compensated fairly and this is how you choose to do it

00:22:09Good folks, you have my word. I will make this matter right

00:22:20Lord Benjamin requests your land to build a new fort, but we will provide whatever is necessary for you

00:22:26Do you know the Baron?

00:22:28Could you plead to him on our behalf, please?

00:22:31All we ask is that we remain here. We cannot leave our home, please

00:22:34Rest assured you'll be well

00:22:37Compensated if you choose to depart. No, we don't want coin

00:22:41This is my son's home. If it's torn down, he will never find his way home

00:22:47Your son was taken you say?

00:22:49Yes, he was only 13 years old taken far too young conscripted by the Baron's soldiers

00:22:56If we leave he'll never find his way back

00:23:01Please I beg of you

00:23:06He's pinned

00:23:08It was a token a promise that my children and I would always be family together

00:23:14This one is for you, Arthur

00:23:24What?

00:23:36Mother

00:23:38Arthur

00:23:40Oh, is it you?

00:23:42It's me, mom

00:23:44I've come home

00:23:45My boy

00:23:46Ten long years

00:23:48We searched for you

00:23:49And finally

00:23:51You come back to us

00:23:53I'm sorry

00:23:55I've been a bad son

00:23:57But I promise

00:23:58I will give you the life you deserve from here on out

00:24:01Please forgive me

00:24:03Please forgive me

00:24:05Can we stop with the theatrics?

00:24:14Ten years have passed and cousin Arthur returns as a peasant

00:24:18I'd cry too if this were my son

00:24:20Laura and George do you see Arthur has come home

00:24:24What's there to cheer for? A beggar for a son?

00:24:27Or a thief more likely

00:24:29Look at him

00:24:30Wandering around

00:24:32Starving and desperate

00:24:34I don't care what you say

00:24:36But my son has come home

00:24:38And he is everything to me

00:24:40Let's go inside and I will make your favorite roast

00:24:43And George and Laura

00:24:45I would prefer if you left

00:24:47We would like to celebrate alone as a family

00:24:50We're not leaving until you sign the contract you useless fool

00:24:57No, Robert, Shirley, you understand

00:24:59You're family

00:25:00We'd like to celebrate

00:25:01This low life doesn't deserve anything

00:25:07I'm done arguing with you with this pigsty

00:25:10Don't you point your finger at me

00:25:13I could do much worse

00:25:15Or do you want me to get my fiancee

00:25:17So you can beg for her forgiveness instead?

00:25:19Remember

00:25:20I'm engaged to the prestigious Lady Edith

00:25:23If she finds out about this

00:25:25You'll all get a good beating

00:25:27Go away!

00:25:36This is a joyous day

00:25:38And I do not wish to spend it squabbling with you ilk

00:25:41Kneel before us

00:25:43Apologize

00:25:45And be gone

00:25:49You son of a whore

00:25:52I'm the Baron's butler

00:25:54The highest on his staff

00:25:56You think I'd kneel to a common maid?

00:25:59You better show your respect

00:26:06Now will you go?

00:26:08You scum!

00:26:09I'll have you know just how much I am worth

00:26:12Inform Lady Edith

00:26:14Ask her to come, won't you?

00:26:15Yes, Mr. Wellesley

00:26:17Well, well, well

00:26:18You fools have chosen not to take the gold

00:26:21But it was the Baron's orders

00:26:23Your hovel must come down

00:26:25Lord Benjamin's orders was it?

00:26:28That's Baron Stamford to you

00:26:30On the contrary

00:26:31I think I can call him Benjamin just fine

00:26:36Are you mad?

00:26:37Who do you think you are?

00:26:39The Duke?

00:26:40Pulling rank like you're anything special

00:26:43I dare say I'm special enough that even Lord Benjamin would kneel before me

00:26:48What's that I hear about the Baron?

00:26:54Lord Benjamin, sir

00:26:56The Duke has dismissed his guards and gone on a stroll

00:26:58Where to?

00:26:59Around where the families are being asked to relocate, sir

00:27:02What?

00:27:03Well, I hope he doesn't run into the Wellesleys

00:27:06Guards, come with me

00:27:08What's that I hear about the Baron?

00:27:18Did I just hear someone disrespecting my cousin, the Baron of Stamford?

00:27:23I tried to pay these lowlifes with gold

00:27:27But they refused to leave their pigsty

00:27:30And their son even hit me

00:27:35You scumbag

00:27:37How dare you lay your dirty hands on my fiancé?

00:27:40Do you know who I am?

00:27:42Why would I care who you are?

00:27:44He hit my parents

00:27:45So I hit him back

00:27:47Sounds fair to me

00:27:48You are in the town of Stamford

00:27:50My cousin's jurisdiction

00:27:52And Robert is his head butler

00:27:54You'll pay for what you've done

00:27:57Bring him to the dungeons

00:27:59No

00:28:00I'll teach him a lesson

00:28:01No, no, no, no, please don't

00:28:02Please don't

00:28:03Please don't

00:28:05Lord Benjamin's cousin

00:28:06Is this how he taught you to behave?

00:28:08Oh

00:28:10I didn't expect a lowly peasant like you to know who my cousin is

00:28:14Don't tell me he's spoken to you before

00:28:16Of course

00:28:17In fact

00:28:18Why don't you ask him who I am?

00:28:20That's enough

00:28:21That's enough! Guards seize him!

00:28:23No, no, no, no, no, no!

00:28:25No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

00:28:27Please, he just came back!

00:28:29Let go of me. This is your last chance.

00:28:32Seize me and you'll have to face the consequences of your crime.

00:28:36As if I'd fear anything from a runt like you, I could kill you right now if I wanted to.

00:28:41Kill me? Is that right? Fine. I'll go with you. But don't say I didn't warn you.

00:28:47Watch your tongue, but don't worry. Soon you'll be too busy screaming in my dungeon to talk back.

00:28:54Please, please don't hurt him. No, Arthur.

00:28:57Father, Mother, don't worry. I'll be back very soon.

00:29:01You think you're coming back? Take him away!

00:29:04Oh, no!

00:29:06Take your hand out of my son!

00:29:08Well, well. I didn't expect that runt to hit me. Just wait. The two of you will join him soon.

00:29:15Let's go, Father. Serves you right, brother.

00:29:29What happened here?

00:29:31Lord Benjamin, it was all your butler's doing, and your cousin, Lady Edith.

00:29:37They even took my son to the dungeon!

00:29:39Your son? Tall and with dark hair?

00:29:50We need to go! Now!

00:29:54God, Carl, what are we gonna do? Because Arthur's gone.

00:29:57Anne. Anne is engaged to John Moore. The Moors can help.

00:30:01They're engaged, yes, but that was years ago. John Moore's a rich man now. He's really...

00:30:05We have to try, Carl, please.

00:30:07You're right. We have to try. We have to try. We have to find our son.

00:30:16What happened to that fire? That rage? Scared of the consequences now, runt?

00:30:21Consequences? For giving you what you deserve.

00:30:24Watch your mouth. Your family is done for, and you're still talking back.

00:30:38No, my lady. It's your family that's done for. I've made up my mind. I will not spare you.

00:30:44Me, needing sparing from you. You've gone mad.

00:30:55It seems like you've gotten it in your head that you could do something to us.

00:31:00Let me remind you of your place.

00:31:03You insolent brat!

00:31:16What are you doing?

00:31:18Reminding you of your place.

00:31:23Stop it or I'll have you killed!

00:31:25You! Have me killed.

00:31:28You've got the wrong man.

00:31:30Consider it your warning, cousin.

00:31:46The gall of you!

00:31:48Threatening me and then calling yourself my cousin!

00:31:51I won't let you off easy!

00:31:54You want another go?

00:31:55Still trying to act tough?

00:31:57It seems like we'll need to teach you a lesson.

00:32:00Guards!

00:32:01Flog him!

00:32:04Hold it!

00:32:08You're not flogging anyone.

00:32:13Hold it!

00:32:14Oh, cousin, you don't understand. This lowly scum had disregarded your orders and impeded the Duke's relocation efforts and-

00:32:28And he even tried to punch me!

00:32:30Cousin Benjamin, you must see to it that he is punished.

00:32:33Stop oinking once the Baron showed up, hmm?

00:32:37Your side of the Wellesley family is going to be dinner.

00:32:40Sir, this lowly villain is, unfortunately, my cousin.

00:32:45Just like his parents, they've no regard for your authority.

00:32:48That's right, Benjamin.

00:32:50What happened again?

00:32:51We had gone to the less fortunate Wellesley's to evict them, but he tried to stop us.

00:32:56So, Edith had him brought here to teach him a lesson, but it looks like he hasn't learned anything.

00:33:02Oh, oh, sir, you don't know the half of it.

00:33:04He hit us and ordered us to kneel to him.

00:33:08He even said that you were lowlier than he.

00:33:11You must punish him accordingly.

00:33:14As I was saying, the consequences of your actions-

00:33:18You fool.

00:33:21There will be consequences, all right.

00:33:23For you!

00:33:25What for, sir?

00:33:27Have I done something wrong, sir?

00:33:29I don't-

00:33:31Cousin, you misunderstand.

00:33:34There is no misunderstanding.

00:33:37Have you lost your mind?

00:33:39Do you know who this man is?

00:33:44Do you know who this man is?

00:33:46He's nothing but a beggar, the son of peasants!

00:33:52Get out of my sight, you pathetic woman.

00:33:58Duke of Mercia, your grace.

00:34:02Pardon my tardiness.

00:34:06Duke?

00:34:08What do you mean, Duke?

00:34:09Sir, you must be mistaken.

00:34:11Rightly so.

00:34:12He's a peasant, a beggar.

00:34:14How could he be the Duke?

00:34:16Don't question me.

00:34:21No.

00:34:22No, no, no, no, no, no.

00:34:23This is possible.

00:34:24How can you say you're the Duke?

00:34:28Shut it, Wellesley.

00:34:30You have no right to speak.

00:34:33That lowlife's the Duke?

00:34:35Carl's son is the Duke?

00:34:36Oh no!

00:34:37No!

00:34:38George!

00:34:39What have we done?

00:34:48Lord Venture.

00:34:50It seems that you've neglected your duties as Baron.

00:34:53Your people have shown me nothing but disdain.

00:34:55They take from the poor, torture your innocent, pillage and kill.

00:35:01Have you no order in Stanford?

00:35:04Have them punished for their wrongdoings.

00:35:07Their wrongdoings?

00:35:09I imagine then it was you who have allowed them to do this.

00:35:13And it is you who must be punished.

00:35:16Mercy, your grace.

00:35:18I will have them flogged, exiled, punished to the extent of the law.

00:35:22Please, your grace, spare us.

00:35:26Cousin.

00:35:29It's my fault.

00:35:31See, your grace, I've been a fool.

00:35:35Punish me, flog me as you will.

00:35:38Let me live.

00:35:40We are from the same family, Duke Arthur.

00:35:44I don't want to die.

00:35:46Young Arthur, my son had just become a butler.

00:35:49He's only just delivered us from the clutches of poverty.

00:35:53Please, we adore him so.

00:35:56You must kill him or exile him.

00:35:59Please, I beg you, as your uncle, as your father's own brother.

00:36:04Oh, you're too cruel, Arthur.

00:36:08How can you do this to another Wellesley?

00:36:14Cruelty?

00:36:15Have you forgotten your cruelty to mother and father?

00:36:18Threatening to leave them homeless and laughing in their face when they begged you?

00:36:23Have you forgotten what you've done to my parents?

00:36:26Your own brother?

00:36:29And cousin Robert?

00:36:31What happened to making me see the consequences of my actions?

00:36:34Did you pity your poor cousin then?

00:36:36I've seen you for what you are.

00:36:39Shameless.

00:36:40And wretched scum.

00:36:42You are unfit to live.

00:36:46Have them dealt with.

00:36:48And think about what you've done.

00:36:49You're meant to be noble.

00:36:51Not only in your actions, but in your name.

00:36:54See that your people behave.

00:36:56Or I'll have your title removed.

00:36:57I will see to them personally.

00:37:00Oh, please.

00:37:02Oh, sir.

00:37:03Please.

00:37:05Robert deceived me.

00:37:06It's all his fault.

00:37:08Please, Duke Arthur.

00:37:09Spare me.

00:37:11I'll do anything for you.

00:37:13Egypt.

00:37:15What are you doing?

00:37:17You villain.

00:37:19If it weren't for you, I never would have gotten involved with this mess.

00:37:22I'm calling off our engagement.

00:37:24From this moment onward, I'll have nothing to do with you.

00:37:27I beg of you, O Graydon Honorable Duke.

00:37:30Forgive me.

00:37:32Don't you want to see what I have to offer?

00:37:36Save it, Sloth.

00:37:38Lord Benjamin.

00:37:39Make sure these vermin never cross my path again.

00:37:44They make me sick.

00:37:45Guards!

00:37:50Lock them up.

00:37:52Cousin, please!

00:37:53Won't you speak to him?

00:37:55Just let me go!

00:37:56I won't ever do it again!

00:38:00No!

00:38:01No!

00:38:02Cousin!

00:38:03Please!

00:38:04Please!

00:38:05No!

00:38:11In good news, Benjamin.

00:38:13I found my parents.

00:38:15That is wonderful, Your Grace!

00:38:17What a blessed day it is!

00:38:19I wish to host a banquet tonight.

00:38:21Introduce my parents to...

00:38:23Upper Society.

00:38:25Life has been cruel to them.

00:38:27And...

00:38:28I wish for them to live happily.

00:38:30Oh!

00:38:31And my sister, too.

00:38:32Anna.

00:38:33I want to do something special for her as well.

00:38:35Did you just say, Anna?

00:38:37And to the maid, Anna?

00:38:39Right.

00:38:40Anna.

00:38:41She works here, doesn't she?

00:38:42Uh...

00:38:44Seems that I have someone the Duke might want.

00:38:49Mr. Wellesley.

00:38:51Lord Benjamin says Anna is to attend to the Duke personally for the next few days.

00:38:55Did you just say, Anna?

00:39:01And to the maid, Anna.

00:39:04Right.

00:39:05Anna.

00:39:06She works here, doesn't she?

00:39:07Uh...

00:39:08Bring me to her.

00:39:09Uh...

00:39:10No, Your Grace.

00:39:11I...

00:39:12What?

00:39:13I thought...

00:39:14I thought that you fancied her, so I...

00:39:15What have you done?

00:39:16Bring me to her right now!

00:39:17You have fine features.

00:39:31For a scullery maid, I can see why he likes you.

00:39:36Mr. Crowley, did...

00:39:38Did you need something?

00:39:39Yes, pet.

00:39:40You have been chosen.

00:39:47Take off your clothes.

00:39:49What are you going to do to me?

00:39:51Oh, don't worry.

00:39:52I have no interest in you.

00:39:54I wouldn't dare.

00:39:58Put this on.

00:39:59Oh.

00:40:05Perfect!

00:40:07I can see why he chose you in particular.

00:40:10Mr. Crowley, what's all this about?

00:40:13The Baron has ordered you to meet another client.

00:40:16A big man.

00:40:18You are to be his mistress.

00:40:20To satisfy his physical needs, of course.

00:40:23An honor for a common whore like you.

00:40:26No, I refuse!

00:40:28You don't have a choice!

00:40:31Baron's orders.

00:40:36Do you even know who you are serving?

00:40:38It is the Duke!

00:40:39The one you poured tea on!

00:40:41What? The Duke?

00:40:43Aw, dumb already, are you?

00:40:45Still think you can say no, whore?

00:40:47Please, I don't want to!

00:40:53It's a good opportunity, dammit!

00:40:57Mr. Crowley, I'm betrothed!

00:41:00I don't want to be another man's mistress!

00:41:03Hadn't your father just fallen ill?

00:41:05Weren't you complaining about money?

00:41:07Don't you even want to help your family, you ingrate?

00:41:09You ingrate!

00:41:22Serve the Duke, and the money's yours.

00:41:25You'll have no short supply of expensive little trinkets.

00:41:28I would never sell my body.

00:41:39Not for a few coppers.

00:41:41Not for anything.

00:41:43I am a woman of honor.

00:41:46Honor is for people who deserve it, not a lowly whore like you!

00:41:50No!

00:41:51Oh no!

00:41:52You don't get to say no!

00:41:53Oh my god, please!

00:41:54Hands off!

00:41:55Oh no!

00:41:56You don't get to say no!

00:41:57Oh my god, please!

00:41:58Oh!

00:41:59Hands off the word!

00:42:00Oh no!

00:42:01Oh no!

00:42:02Oh no!

00:42:03You don't get to say no!

00:42:04Oh my god, please!

00:42:06Hands off the word!

00:42:07Oh no!

00:42:08You don't get to say no!

00:42:09Oh my god, please!

00:42:10Oh no!

00:42:11Oh my god, please!

00:42:13Hands off the word!

00:42:15He didn't hurt you, did he?

00:42:18Are you the Duke, sir?

00:42:20Sir, what is the meaning of this?

00:42:24You imbecile!

00:42:25But sir, you said...

00:42:29Have you no shame acting like this in my manner?

00:42:33Sir, this bitch refused your orders!

00:42:36It is my right as house steward to teach her a lesson!

00:42:43Apologize to her, or I'll have you fired!

00:42:47Apologize, sir, but she's the lonely scullery maid!

00:42:51She was out of line!

00:42:55Ah!

00:42:56A lowly maid!

00:42:58Mark my words!

00:42:59She's Duke Arthur's sister!

00:43:05She's...his sister?

00:43:07The lowly maid is...his sister?

00:43:10Are you...really my brother?

00:43:13My Arthur?

00:43:15Yes, Anna.

00:43:17I've come back to protect you, and mother, and father.

00:43:21Arthur!

00:43:22Where have you been all these years with this too terribly?

00:43:26There, there.

00:43:29Let me deal with this man first.

00:43:31Hm?

00:43:35Once again, Lord Benjamin.

00:43:38Your men have shown their true colors.

00:43:41Disgusting and vile.

00:43:43Sir, I failed to discipline them.

00:43:46But yes.

00:43:47Yes.

00:43:48Sir.

00:43:49Duke.

00:43:50I was wrong.

00:43:52I would have never treated her like that had I have known that she was your sister.

00:43:59Yet you see no issue in treating her this way if she wasn't.

00:44:03Isn't that so?

00:44:05Lowly servants?

00:44:06They're worthless in your eyes, aren't they?

00:44:08Okay.

00:44:09Well, Mr. Stewart.

00:44:10You're worthless to me.

00:44:11No!

00:44:12It was Benjamin!

00:44:13The Baron!

00:44:14Lord!

00:44:15He asked me to!

00:44:16No, I didn't!

00:44:17God!

00:44:18Throw him into the dungeon!

00:44:19No!

00:44:20No!

00:44:21Please!

00:44:22No, sir!

00:44:23No!

00:44:24No!

00:44:27Anna.

00:44:28Tell me truly.

00:44:30Are you alright?

00:44:31Yes.

00:44:32I am now.

00:44:33Because you're back.

00:44:34And I can't believe it.

00:44:35You're the Duke!

00:44:37Oh!

00:44:38Well, let's go see mother and father.

00:44:39They'll be overjoyed.

00:44:40I just know it.

00:44:42Anna.

00:44:43I've already met them.

00:44:45Oh.

00:44:46Then you must know the years have been quite hard on them.

00:44:50But it's all worth it.

00:44:51Because you're back.

00:44:53Anna.

00:44:54Stay here.

00:44:55I'll bring them here.

00:44:56Okay?

00:44:58Duke Arthur, I believe that your parents are currently of the Moors.

00:45:02John Moore has been engaged to your sister for some time.

00:45:06Yes.

00:45:07John and I are engaged.

00:45:09But...

00:45:10He's your fiancee, Anna.

00:45:12So I'll love him like a brother.

00:45:14Lord Benjamin, arrange a feast for tonight.

00:45:17I want to show our parents high society.

00:45:20And invite John Moore.

00:45:22I'll speak to the king.

00:45:23See if he can grant him a noble title.

00:45:28As you wish, Duke Arthur.

00:45:37Is that the Moors' home?

00:45:38A fine place for a merchant family, but...

00:45:41They'll be able to afford better very soon.

00:45:47Well, we're here.

00:45:48The home of our supposed son-in-law.

00:45:50Yeah.

00:45:58You tottering fool.

00:46:02No!

00:46:03Why have you come back?

00:46:07John, this is your fiancee's father.

00:46:10Ow!

00:46:11You will call me Mr. Moore.

00:46:15And you are nothing to me.

00:46:17John!

00:46:18That's Mr. Moore.

00:46:19Shut up.

00:46:20I'm sorry.

00:46:22Mr. Moore.

00:46:23Please.

00:46:24Let's talk.

00:46:25And what is this about me being your daughter's fiancee?

00:46:29You've always been poor, but now you're liars, too.

00:46:32Mr. Moore, you know as well as I do.

00:46:35You've been betrothed to Anna for years.

00:46:38Your father and I, we had an arrangement.

00:46:39That may be so, but circumstances have changed.

00:46:43Do you think my father would want me marrying someone that comes from you filthy swine?

00:46:49That's not why we're here today.

00:46:52We're here because...

00:46:53Oh, I know.

00:46:54Money.

00:46:55Isn't that right?

00:46:59Alms for the poor.

00:47:01Now away with you.

00:47:03Mr. Moore, we didn't come here today for money.

00:47:06That's enough.

00:47:08Your breath reeks.

00:47:11Beat some sense into the old caja and take him out of here.

00:47:15I'd like to see you try.

00:47:19I'd like to see you try.

00:47:24Arthur, my boy, they set you free.

00:47:28Rightfully so, father.

00:47:30Oh, Arthur.

00:47:31It's so good to see you alive and well.

00:47:33Father.

00:47:35Mother.

00:47:37Robert's been punished for what he did to you.

00:47:39You must be the son I keep hearing so much about.

00:47:42Weren't you kidnapped to join the army?

00:47:45Run away, did you?

00:47:47And now you've come here to leech off me?

00:47:50You're John Moore.

00:47:52Now, did I hear you say you wanted to have my father beaten?

00:47:56So what if I did?

00:47:59What's a runt like you gonna do about it anyway?

00:48:02Cry?

00:48:03Piss your pants?

00:48:05Say that again.

00:48:13If you think I'm gonna take it easy on you because you're engaged to my sister,

00:48:17then you'd be wrong.

00:48:19Let go of me, you dirty dog.

00:48:26Resulting to violence now, are we?

00:48:29Like the lowlife you are.

00:48:31Come on then.

00:48:33Hit me.

00:48:34And you regret ever being born.

00:48:36You think that can stop me?

00:48:39Who do you think you are?

00:48:49Oh, it's just a peasant.

00:48:51John, my darling, I come bearing good news.

00:48:54Father says the duke has arranged for a banquet at the manor and you're invited.

00:48:58And the duke is going to ask the king to grant you a title.

00:49:01Finally you can be part of upper society and we can marry.

00:49:04A title? Adela, tell me it's true.

00:49:07I'll finally have a name to match my wealth.

00:49:09No one will be able to tell us what to do.

00:49:12No one will be able to say no to us.

00:49:14Of course it's true, John, darling. The duke adores my father. He's the baron after all.

00:49:21In fact, the duke is at the manor right now.

00:49:23Don't waste your time with these peasants. Let's go, John.

00:49:28Lady Adela, I'm afraid we must deal with these peasants first.

00:49:31As dearly as they are, this is Arthur, honest brother.

00:49:35And now that I'm rich, he wants to force me to marry his sister.

00:49:39What did you say?

00:49:40Oh, I see. You're that boy that was kidnapped as a child.

00:49:46Well then, be gone. We have nothing to give a shameless beggar.

00:49:51Oh, don't touch me, you disgusting man! Don't you know who my father is?

00:49:57Lord Benjamin evidently.

00:49:59Don't you know? Even your father watches his tongue around me.

00:50:04Ah!

00:50:05Adela!

00:50:06I can't believe I've been touched by a dirty beggar!

00:50:10Have you no manners around the rich?

00:50:13You scum. You better beg for forgiveness if you want to live.

00:50:17And what authority do you have over me?

00:50:19And what authority do you have over me?

00:50:21Every authority, peasant scum!

00:50:24My father is the Baron of Stamford.

00:50:26And now that you're all here, let it be known.

00:50:30I am not going to marry Anna.

00:50:33I am to be a noble, so do not let me catch sight of you all again.

00:50:37Going back on your word, John?

00:50:40That's unbecoming of your future title.

00:50:42I think John has made himself clear enough.

00:50:45Get lost, you blood sucking leech.

00:50:46Leeching off of him?

00:50:49I would never.

00:50:51His money is as vile as his word.

00:50:54No matter.

00:50:56A man like you doesn't deserve my sister anyway.

00:51:01Men, get him.

00:51:03No!

00:51:05Men, get him.

00:51:08No!

00:51:09Arthur, we will tell Anna.

00:51:14But, please, we cannot anger Mr. Moore.

00:51:19He's going to be a noble now.

00:51:21At least your chambermaid of a mother knows how to act in front of men like me.

00:51:26Drop the matter and I'll let you leave.

00:51:29Amen.

00:51:32We'll go.

00:51:34But best you remember,

00:51:35it is the Wellesleys who called off this engagement.

00:51:40Because you, John Moore,

00:51:43are unfit for my sister.

00:51:48John Moore,

00:51:50are unfit for my sister.

00:51:52My word.

00:51:54Unfit.

00:51:55For you.

00:51:57Let's see.

00:51:58Servant, servant, beggar.

00:52:00Oh, you're too funny.

00:52:02Take this as a friendly warning, John.

00:52:05Lest you regret your decision later.

00:52:07I have no mind to regret anything regarding you, Lant.

00:52:10Now that that's settled,

00:52:12if you ever speak to us again,

00:52:15I will have your legs cut off.

00:52:18Come now.

00:52:19We have a banquet to attend.

00:52:29That's the Moors for you.

00:52:31Some coin and they forget everything that we've ever done for them.

00:52:34Oh, Arthur.

00:52:36I wish we had a better reception for you.

00:52:39Oh, Mother.

00:52:40Don't say that, please.

00:52:42I've already arranged something for you.

00:52:44I finally found you.

00:52:45That's cause for celebration.

00:52:47You've arranged something?

00:52:48No.

00:52:50No, I...

00:52:51Please.

00:52:52I hope you haven't spent any coin on us, Arthur.

00:52:54What have you arranged?

00:52:55Just something small at the Baron's Manor.

00:52:58Don't worry, Mother.

00:52:59It's been paid for.

00:53:01At the Baron's Manor?

00:53:02Arthur!

00:53:03We...

00:53:04Haven't you heard the Duke will be there?

00:53:05We can't possibly impose.

00:53:07It's...

00:53:09Like I said, Mother.

00:53:10Don't worry.

00:53:11You'll see.

00:53:12Oh.

00:53:13Oh.

00:53:14Oh.

00:53:15Oh.

00:53:16Oh.

00:53:17Oh.

00:53:23Lady Adela, this is all very splendid.

00:53:26You must introduce us to the Duke when he arrives.

00:53:29Oh, Mrs. Moore, of course.

00:53:31As the Baron of Stamford, my father is very close to the Duke.

00:53:36It's likely he was the one to recommend John in the first place.

00:53:40Of course, the Duke would love to meet you.

00:53:42I cannot believe it.

00:53:43A noble title.

00:53:45Lady Adela, you are simply full of surprises.

00:53:48You are the best match for John, no doubt about it.

00:53:52What do you mean to ask, Adela?

00:53:54Why would someone like the Duke come to Stamford in the first place?

00:53:58Well, Stamford is his hometown.

00:54:00The King dispatched him here to oversee the building of a new fort.

00:54:05The real reason is his parents.

00:54:07He was separated from them when he was a child.

00:54:10Even this banquet, I hear, is all for them.

00:54:13Must be good noble people to rear such a fine man like the Duke.

00:54:18We must make a good impression.

00:54:20Mm-hmm.

00:54:30How did those peasants get in?

00:54:48This banquet, I've arranged it all for you.

00:54:51I'll introduce you to everyone shortly.

00:54:53Our third?

00:54:55Don't just...

00:54:56What do you mean for us?

00:54:58Mother, I'm serious.

00:55:01This is all for you.

00:55:03But...

00:55:04How could you have arranged all this?

00:55:06How much money did you spend?

00:55:08Money has nothing to do with it, Father.

00:55:10I just want to see you happy.

00:55:12We are happy.

00:55:14Truly happy.

00:55:16We're finally all together again.

00:55:22John, I thought you told them to get lost.

00:55:24Why are they back?

00:55:25John, I thought you told them to get lost.

00:55:28Why are they back?

00:55:29Damn lowlives.

00:55:30They must've tailed us in.

00:55:32I knew those ill-bred dogs would go away that easily.

00:55:36Scoundrels, all.

00:55:37Mrs. Moore, rest easy.

00:55:39This banquet is held on the Duke's orders,

00:55:42and Father asked me to see that our guests enjoy themselves.

00:55:45I have every authority to throw them back.

00:55:47Why are they back?

00:55:48John, I thought you told them to get lost.

00:55:49Why are they back?

00:55:50John, I thought you told them to get lost.

00:55:51Why are they back?

00:55:52Damn lowlives.

00:55:53I have every authority to throw them out.

00:55:59Come.

00:56:10Who let you in?

00:56:14Who let you in?

00:56:15You must be lost, peasant.

00:56:17This is the Duke's banquet, not the gruel kitchen.

00:56:21I suggest you turn around immediately.

00:56:23And I suggest you shut your mouth.

00:56:26This is my manor.

00:56:28My father is hosting it under direct orders of the Duke.

00:56:32You have no place to speak here.

00:56:36And you?

00:56:37You must be the bitch that John was engaged to.

00:56:40I'll have you know, John is going to be a noble.

00:56:45You'll have no way into his home.

00:56:48Unless you'd like to be our maid once we marry.

00:56:52Lowborn as I may be, I'm still more noble than a harlot like you.

00:56:56You wench.

00:56:57I will not let you talk to Lady Adela like this.

00:57:01Apologize right now.

00:57:03I owe her nothing of the sort.

00:57:05She is the one who's courting an engaged man.

00:57:08I told your parents and your disgusting beggar of a brother, I called off the engagement.

00:57:15You're not good enough for me.

00:57:17You're wrong.

00:57:18It's you who isn't good enough for me.

00:57:20I would never marry a man with such a fickle heart.

00:57:24Who would abandon his fiance just to chase after some harlot's coin.

00:57:32You dirty bitch.

00:57:33That's what you get for talking to my son like that.

00:57:36How dare you raise your hands to my daughter.

00:57:42How dare she insult my son.

00:57:45You're right mother.

00:57:46We ought to slap some sense into them.

00:57:48Anna, look at yourself.

00:57:50You're nothing compared to Lady Adela.

00:57:53It's no wonder I chose her.

00:57:55Lady Adela is Lord Benjamin's daughter.

00:58:00What do you have that Lady Adela doesn't?

00:58:02Besides this useless beggar of a brother.

00:58:07Do not insult my brother.

00:58:09He is more noble than any of you.

00:58:19All this dirty work must have done you in.

00:58:22A beggar like him.

00:58:25You lowly peasants.

00:58:27None of you deserve to talk to us.

00:58:29Get out or we'll throw you out with force.

00:58:32It is you who ought to be thrown out.

00:58:34Hmm.

00:58:36What a pretty money sucking leech.

00:58:38I would tell her.

00:58:39I'm disgusted by the implication.

00:58:41Despite her features, a maid that cleans chamber parts all day is more fit to marry a stable boy.

00:58:47Say that again.

00:58:49A maid that cleans chamber parts all day is more fit to marry a stable boy.

00:58:52Say that again.

00:58:54A maid that cleans chamber parts all day is more fit to marry a stable boy.

00:58:56Say that again and I'll make you pay.

00:58:57Oh no.

00:58:58What are you going to do?

00:58:59Hit me?

00:59:01Well come on then.

00:59:02Have at it.

00:59:04Well, I do say I think this was the first time I heard someone ask for it.

00:59:08But I think we all heard him clearly enough.

00:59:09You fill it.

00:59:10You actually asked for it.

00:59:11You asked for it.

00:59:12I obliged.

00:59:14Lord Benjamin.

00:59:15The Duke has arrived.

00:59:17He's here already.

00:59:18We have to go.

00:59:19You asked for it.

00:59:20I'm sorry.

00:59:21Everybody has said that you can do it.

00:59:22Your to be rich.

00:59:23I don't think I would have committed to.

00:59:24You asked for it.

00:59:25I obliged.

00:59:26This is the last time I got out.

00:59:28You asked for it.

00:59:29You asked for it.

00:59:30The Duke has arrived.

00:59:34What are you doing here?

00:59:38You asked for it.

00:59:40Well...

00:59:41I do say I think this was the first time I heard someone ask for it.

00:59:43I am to be a noble, and you will not offend me again.

00:59:47Why should I care? I'm sure Lord Benjamin would understand.

00:59:50Do not speak my father's name. You're dead.

00:59:54My father will see to it when he arrives.

00:59:56On your knees. And I demand you apologize to John now.

01:00:01And your filthy parents too. Down!

01:00:03Who do you think you are barking orders at me?

01:00:05Don't think you're so high and mighty just because you followed us in.

01:00:09You've no right to speak to my son or Lady Adela like this.

01:00:12Don't you know how much I suffered being betrothed to your dirty whore of a sister?

01:00:18I will not let you embarrass me again.

01:00:23We've been gracious enough letting the matter go, yet you shameless rats won't stop bothering us.

01:00:29Away! Off with you!

01:00:31Oh, Mrs. Moore. I have a much better idea.

01:00:35Let's add a few tears to their teary reunion.

01:00:38Guards!

01:00:38Execute him!

01:00:43No!

01:00:44I want to watch as they lose their precious son.

01:00:47Again.

01:00:49Oh, Lady Adela, I think if that's the case, we ought to keep him alive.

01:00:53He's already a useless beggar.

01:00:56We ought to break his legs and keep him that way.

01:00:58Lisa!

01:00:59Lady Moore!

01:01:01Please!

01:01:01I apologize.

01:01:03I'll have Arthur repent right away!

01:01:05Yes, please.

01:01:06Pardon us.

01:01:07Arthur.

01:01:08Please, I beg of you, apologize.

01:01:10Please.

01:01:12You've enough wit to be scared, but it's too late.

01:01:15It's not my fault you've been grating on my nerves.

01:01:18I've nothing left for pity.

01:01:20Seems like you have quite a loud bark with no bite now.

01:01:23What did you just say to me?

01:01:28Mother.

01:01:29Father.

01:01:30I already told you.

01:01:31This banquet is for you.

01:01:32In honor of us all being together again.

01:01:35You have every right to enjoy yourself.

01:01:37And my sister was correct.

01:01:39You ought to apologize for your poor behavior.

01:01:41And I ought to have you thrown out.

01:01:43Soon, you'll be kneeling before us, begging for the forgiveness.

01:01:47We have every right to withhold.

01:01:48A pity to have a son like him.

01:01:51Imagine spending ten years to find your son just to have him turn out like this.

01:01:56The real pity is what will be happening to you soon.

01:01:59I think I'll be quite happy in the future.

01:02:02Oh, yes.

01:02:04Happy.

01:02:05Very happy, I imagine, with your legs mangled, crawling on the ground.

01:02:10Oh, and your poor parents.

01:02:12I'm sure they'll be very joyous over such a sight.

01:02:16Seize them!

01:02:16No, no, please, no.

01:02:19Presenting, the Honorable Lord Benjamin, Baron of Stamford.

01:02:25Oh, you're in for it now.

01:02:28Lord Benjamin is the most powerful man in Stamford.

01:02:31And he's backed by the Duke, whose authority is second only to the King.

01:02:36You poor, poor souls.

01:02:38We'll see what the Duke has to say when he hears about this.

01:02:41I reckon you'll all be beaten to death in the dungeons.

01:02:44Don't waste your breath, Madam.

01:02:45A commoner like him can't even fathom the great power the Duke has.

01:02:50Of course, Lady Adela.

01:02:51It'd be an honor for him to lay eyes on the gentlemen before he crushes them like the rats they are.

01:02:58No, I can't wait.

01:03:01How unfortunate it had to come to this.

01:03:03Yes, how unfortunate it is for you.

01:03:07Lord Benjamin is my father.

01:03:10And once I tell him what you've done to me and my dear John, he'll have you all beheaded.

01:03:16No.

01:03:17Oh, how lucky it is to be so simple-minded.

01:03:22You, half-dead cauders.

01:03:24And you, harlot.

01:03:27Huh.

01:03:28Any last words?

01:03:30No teary goodbyes?

01:03:32Or do you wish to die with him?

01:03:35John, please.

01:03:36Arthur was just impulsive.

01:03:38Please put in a good word for him.

01:03:39Get your dirty hands off of me.

01:03:42You scoundrel!

01:03:43I'll do it again.

01:03:48You scoundrel!

01:03:49I'll do it again.

01:03:52John!

01:03:53My darling boy!

01:03:55How dare you!

01:03:56Touch my parents again and your family will pay.

01:03:59Let it be known.

01:04:01This night was meant to be a joyous one.

01:04:03And I did not wish to taint it with strife and bloodshed.

01:04:06I would have let you go.

01:04:08As awful as your behavior was to me.

01:04:09But you insulted my virtuous sister.

01:04:12And raised your hand to my saintly mother and father.

01:04:15Your actions beg for punishment.

01:04:17And I am happy to see to it.

01:04:20Let it be known.

01:04:22I plan to exile the Moore family from the good town of Stamford.

01:04:25Oh, you've gone mad.

01:04:31Truly mad.

01:04:33Lady Adela, have your men restrain him for the safety of your guests.

01:04:36And have him flogged in the dungeon.

01:04:41What's this again about the dungeons?

01:04:46Lord Benjamin, you finally come.

01:04:49My lord, we've been troubled so by these lowly peasants.

01:04:52Father, it's them.

01:04:53I say we take them to the dungeons.

01:05:00This is the Duke's banquet, Adela.

01:05:03I will not tolerate your antics.

01:05:06Pardon me, Father.

01:05:07It seems I have been lax.

01:05:08For these lowly, dirty servants have snuck in.

01:05:12Lowly, dirty servants?

01:05:17Yes, Father.

01:05:18The Mr. and Mrs. are servants.

01:05:20And so is the daughter.

01:05:22And he's a beggar.

01:05:24A vile, disgusting man.

01:05:26Perhaps we could send them away with some scraps from the kitchens.

01:05:30I dare say be better than anything they've ever tasted.

01:05:32Oh, Father.

01:05:33Please allow me to see it.

01:05:34I'll have their bones broken and left out for the dogs for disturbing the Duke's banquet.

01:05:41Silence!

01:05:41But Lord Benjamin, why?

01:05:45Duke of Mercia, Arthur.

01:05:48Your Grace, at your service.

01:05:52Hailed in his grace, the Duke, Arthur.

01:05:54Lord Benjamin, I was promised a warm welcome.

01:06:19What is all of this?

01:06:21I'll see to it, Your Grace.

01:06:24My boy.

01:06:25What do the parents say?

01:06:27Is it Duke Arthur that he just called you?

01:06:29What?

01:06:31Sir.

01:06:33Madam.

01:06:33Please.

01:06:36Benjamin.

01:06:37At your service.

01:06:39I don't understand.

01:06:40Are you really?

01:06:41Yes, Father.

01:06:43What?

01:06:45I'm the Duke.

01:06:47My boy?

01:06:48The Duke?

01:06:50That's my son.

01:06:51That's my son.

01:06:53He's a Duke.

01:06:54What did I say?

01:06:55My brother is more noble than anyone.

01:06:59Lord Benjamin, are you certain he's the Duke?

01:07:03Father, you said the Duke was a great man.

01:07:07You must be mistaken.

01:07:10You stupid girl.

01:07:12How could I be wrong?

01:07:14And you, you ought to be ashamed.

01:07:17How dare you do this to his grace, Duke Arthur?

01:07:21No, it can't be.

01:07:23Father, tell me it's a joke.

01:07:25It simply can't be.

01:07:26Get on your knees, girl.

01:07:28And maybe he'll forgive you.

01:07:32No.

01:07:33You said that the Duke was going to give John a title.

01:07:35Why would John call off the engagement to his sister?

01:07:40Maybe this will get through your thick skull.

01:07:43He is the Duke.

01:07:45The one and only.

01:07:47Guards, take her away until she has learned her lesson.

01:07:50Guards, take her away until she has learned her lesson.

01:07:58No!

01:07:59Father, no!

01:08:00He can't be!

01:08:01He can't be the Duke!

01:08:02He's in the game!

01:08:03He's in the game!

01:08:06Your Grace, I must apologize.

01:08:09That's enough!

01:08:10Your family has played your hand for it.

01:08:13Duke Arthur, sir.

01:08:14Why, certainly.

01:08:17My son is still engaged to the Wellesley's daughter.

01:08:20Our connection is nothing to scoff at.

01:08:22Mother, my brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.

01:08:29My brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.

01:08:33We'll be set for life.

01:08:35Oh, married to the sister of the Duke.

01:08:38Oh, goodness.

01:08:39That must be why you want to give me a noble title.

01:08:42So I can marry Anna.

01:08:44Anna.

01:08:45Can you believe it?

01:08:46Your brother.

01:08:47A Duke.

01:08:48What does that have to do with you?

01:08:49It has everything to do with me, darling.

01:08:52You're my fiancé, remember?

01:08:54Don't forget about me just because your brother's a Duke now.

01:08:57You are truly shameless, John.

01:09:00Don't be like that, my dear, darling fiancé.

01:09:02Fiancé?

01:09:03Have you forgotten what you just called me?

01:09:05A dirty whore?

01:09:08Only fit to wait as table boy.

01:09:10Isn't that right?

01:09:11Oh, Anna, forgive him, would you?

01:09:14A pettiness that doesn't suit a pretty face like yours.

01:09:18Women like us, we ought to understand our husband's temperaments.

01:09:22My sister.

01:09:24Petty.

01:09:25That's rich coming from you.

01:09:27Oh, Duke Arthur.

01:09:29My brother.

01:09:30I must apologize for what I said.

01:09:32I'll apologize to Anna.

01:09:34There is no need.

01:09:36I have no wish to hear anything further from you.

01:09:38The woman has spoken, John.

01:09:40It seems my sister disdains your vile habits.

01:09:44Anna, this is all my fault.

01:09:46We grew up together, didn't we?

01:09:48I loved you.

01:09:50I did.

01:09:51This has all been a big misunderstanding, of course.

01:09:54I'm sure you can forgive me.

01:09:56Please, give me another chance.

01:09:58Yes, dear, just a misunderstanding.

01:10:02Let's put it all behind us now, shall we?

01:10:06Yeah.

01:10:07Forgive you!

01:10:09I don't think I will.

01:10:10It would be a sin to forget what you've done to my mother and father.

01:10:14My brother's title has nothing to do with you.

01:10:17I wish for you to be gone and never come back.

01:10:21Anna.

01:10:21Forgive me.

01:10:26You're better than this.

01:10:29Please, forgive me.

01:10:32You're better than this.

01:10:36Leave my sister alone, scum.

01:10:38Your apology means nothing.

01:10:39Please, your grace, Duke Arthur.

01:10:42It's all my fault.

01:10:44I've wronged you.

01:10:45I admit it.

01:10:46I beg your pardon.

01:10:47And, Mr. Westerly, Madam, please ask Arthur to show us mercy.

01:10:54I was betrothed to Anna.

01:10:56I've shown her much kindness.

01:10:58Mother, please ask him to forgive me.

01:11:01I cannot live without Anna.

01:11:04Jane, please.

01:11:06I even got you the job at the Baron's Manor.

01:11:09Are you going to be so cruel as to forget everything I've done for you,

01:11:12that John's done for you?

01:11:14A bit of compassion for an old friend?

01:11:18Yes.

01:11:19Mr. Westerly, please.

01:11:20I'll do anything for her.

01:11:22I'll give her whatever she wants.

01:11:24If you'd just please forgive my one transgression.

01:11:28How dare you ask for compassion?

01:11:34How dare you ask for compassion?

01:11:37Have you shown any compassion to my father?

01:11:39To my mother?

01:11:40Those ten long years I was gone.

01:11:43Did you help them at all?

01:11:45Did you give them any aid?

01:11:47You speak of them as an old friend.

01:11:49As if they have ever forsaken you.

01:11:51But you.

01:11:53Had I not been announced as the Duke,

01:11:54you would have kicked them to the ground and spit on their bodies.

01:11:58You called off my sister's engagement for the first noble lady you saw.

01:12:02You do not deserve my mercy.

01:12:04Duke.

01:12:05Arthur.

01:12:07I...

01:12:07Silence!

01:12:07I've seen you at your worst.

01:12:10I've seen how you treated me.

01:12:12My father.

01:12:13My mother.

01:12:14Anna.

01:12:15You are a shameless, filthy villain.

01:12:19Be gone.

01:12:22Lord Benjamin.

01:12:23Yes, sir.

01:12:24Have the Moors removed from the manor.

01:12:26And forbid anyone from doing business with them in the town of Stamford.

01:12:39Yes, sir.

01:12:45Much better.

01:12:47Father.

01:12:48Mother.

01:12:51Anna.

01:12:51Let us enjoy this banquet in peace.

01:12:55Arthur.

01:12:56This banquet is lovely.

01:13:01But nothing is better than us being reunited as a family.

01:13:06And together we'll be forever.

01:13:09Forever.

01:13:09друга.

01:13:09Father.

01:13:16Forever.

01:13:21Bye.

01:13:24Bye.

01:13:26Bye.

01:13:28Bye.

01:13:29Bye.

01:13:33Bye.

01:13:36Bye.

01:13:37Bye.

01:13:38Bye.

01:13:38Hey, baby.

01:13:38Bye.

01:13:39Bye.
