00:00:00Parent to the war, we must find him.
00:00:03Presenting his grace, the Duke of Mercia.
00:00:06I've returned to find my family.
00:00:08The Duke is coming.
00:00:09This is the Duke, second in authority only to the king.
00:00:13Your son is not coming back.
00:00:16No!
00:00:17Because he's dead.
00:00:19It's your own fault you lost your son.
00:00:22I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.
00:00:24He didn't recognize the necklace.
00:00:26Your land has been saved.
00:00:27What?
00:00:28No, this is our family home.
00:00:30Sign it, now.
00:00:31No.
00:00:32Stop it.
00:00:35Your son was taken, you say?
00:00:37Could this be me?
00:00:39My memories are faint, clouded by the injury I sustained during the war.
00:00:42Say goodbye to your son.
00:00:44That woman...
00:00:45Possibly the Duke is my Arthur.
00:00:47Once upon a time, the Kingdom of Mercia is at war.
00:00:59Every man must stand and fight.
00:01:01I'm scared, Arthur.
00:01:14Arthur, will they take you and Papa away too?
00:01:18No, they won't.
00:01:20Okay?
00:01:21I got something for both of you.
00:01:25I had these blessed by the church today.
00:01:28This one is for you, Arthur.
00:01:34And this one, Anna, is for you.
00:01:37May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.
00:01:42Thank you, Mom.
00:01:46I love you.
00:01:50Mama?
00:01:51Yes?
00:01:51My belly hurts.
00:01:53I think I need to go potty.
00:01:55I see.
00:01:57Yes.
00:01:58Wait, Mama.
00:02:00It's Papa's birthday today.
00:02:01I was wondering if I could have some coins so I could get a little, little bit of beef.
00:02:08Just a little bit.
00:02:15I'm sorry, sweetie.
00:02:16We can't afford beef.
00:02:19Maybe we could have a chicken.
00:02:21Your favorite chicken pie.
00:02:24Huzzah!
00:02:24Thank you, Mom.
00:02:25I love you.
00:02:27I love you.
00:02:31Bye!
00:02:51Every man must stand and fight.
00:02:54Take him.
00:02:55Stop!
00:02:56No, I'm only 13!
00:02:58Let me go!
00:02:59Mama!
00:03:01Mother!
00:03:05Arthur!
00:03:08Arthur should be here by now.
00:03:10Where is he?
00:03:13Arthur!
00:03:14Arthur!
00:03:25Mama!
00:03:26Mama!
00:03:26Mama!
00:03:31Arthur!
00:03:32What?
00:03:32I...
00:03:33I...
00:03:42Have you seen my son?
00:03:49Have you seen Arthur?
00:03:50The baronsmen took him.
00:03:52What?
00:03:53They're marching into the border.
00:03:54They're sending him to war.
00:03:55No!
00:03:57No!
00:03:57Jay! You're hurt!
00:04:13Girl, they took him. We have to get him. He's only 13. He wants to arrive on the battlefield.
00:04:22Let's go.
00:04:24You seen a boy? You seen Arthur? He's our son?
00:04:26Right here with soldier people.
00:04:30Hey, are you soldiers of the Baron? Have you seen a boy? A strong lad? Brown hair? About this tall?
00:04:36The boy we took from the market, is it?
00:04:38Yes.
00:04:38Yes, that's him. Where is he?
00:04:42Your boy is either dead or going to be soon.
00:04:44He can't be. You're lying.
00:04:46Away with you, woman.
00:04:46Give me back my son. The law says that no boy should be conscripted unless he's 16 years old. Arthur's 13.
00:04:53Please!
00:04:54If you didn't want him gone, you should have kept him at home. You have no one to blame but yourself.
00:05:05It's all my fault. I killed him. I should never have let him go to the butchers by himself.
00:05:10Shut up, wench! Or I'll make you join him real soon!
00:05:16Comet, now! Foolish as they are, we can't just kill as we wish!
00:05:22Comet boy from filth like you? He was doomed from the moment he met us!
00:05:26Comet, now!
00:05:32He's right!
00:05:34It's all my fault he shouldn't have left alone.
00:05:37You mustn't do this to yourself. We will bring our boy home!
00:05:42Arthur!
00:05:45Where are you?
00:05:46Comet, now!
00:05:48Comet, now!
00:05:49Oh, my God.
00:06:19I have a feeling I know why you're here.
00:06:25Your Majesty, nothing escapes you.
00:06:29Nothing does escape me, which is why I've already sent word out to Stamford.
00:06:34You'll oversee the building of a new fort to strengthen our borders.
00:06:39The Baron of Stamford will host you until the completion of the project.
00:06:43But Your Majesty, my duty as a Duke is to protect...
00:06:45Go, go.
00:06:48Go.
00:06:49My boy, you've fought enough battles for me and did a great service to the kingdom of Mercia.
00:06:57This is why I gave you the title of Duke.
00:07:02Go back to Stamford.
00:07:05Find your family.
00:07:07They would be so proud to see the man you've become.
00:07:11And while you're at it, build me that castle, eh?
00:07:15I won't let you down, sir.
00:07:25I miss you.
00:07:29Robert, my sweet nephew.
00:07:31Here.
00:07:32All my wages.
00:07:33I'm depending on you.
00:07:36You work for the Baron now, so please help me find your cousin.
00:07:41I beg of you.
00:07:42Aunt Jane, my connections are expensive.
00:07:47I'll look into it, but not today.
00:07:50The Duke is coming to Stamford.
00:07:52Everything has to be perfect.
00:07:54The Duke is coming.
00:07:55Okay.
00:07:58Robert, maybe you can ask the Duke to help me find my son.
00:08:02I've heard that the Duke is a great knight in battle, so perhaps you could ask him to see if he recognizes this boy with his necklace.
00:08:09Maybe he knows my Arthur.
00:08:10Have you lost your wits?
00:08:13Ask the Duke for help.
00:08:15Who do you think you are?
00:08:17Even the Baron wouldn't dare trouble the Duke for such trifles.
00:08:21Robert, please.
00:08:22Just have him take a look.
00:08:24It's your own fault you lost your son.
00:08:38Don't blame other people for your own negligence.
00:08:41It is my fault.
00:08:42I should have never let him out of my sight.
00:08:44I regret it every single day.
00:08:46But you promised that if I gave you all of my wages, you would help me find my son.
00:08:52I told you, not today.
00:08:55The Duke could be here any second.
00:08:58Get lost before he sees your ugly face.
00:09:04The Duke is here.
00:09:06Go.
00:09:07Get.
00:09:17That's the Duke.
00:09:19He's the one that defeated the five kingdoms.
00:09:22A king treats him like a sack.
00:09:25A king treats him like a sack.
00:09:25A king treats him like a sack.
00:09:52Presenting his grace, the Duke of Mercia.
00:10:13Welcome, Your Grace.
00:10:15Lord Benjamin, there's no need for such formalities.
00:10:18We've known each other for a decade now, have we not?
00:10:21Your Grace, it was I who was sending you to the battlefield.
00:10:25I beg for your forgiveness.
00:10:27It was on the battlefield that I earned my honor.
00:10:30You are too kind, Your Grace.
00:10:32I've returned to find my family.
00:10:34Well, please tell me who they are and where they reside.
00:10:37I shall have them brought here at once.
00:10:39My memories are faint, clouded by the injury I sustained during the war.
00:10:44But my mother, she wore a pendant like this.
00:10:48May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.
00:11:05Could this be me?
00:11:08Find who this belongs to.
00:11:09I will see to this personally.
00:11:14Mom, where are you?
00:11:19The Duke of Myrcia has come to the Baron's Manor.
00:11:24The king must hold him in high regard.
00:11:27They say he's looking for his family.
00:11:29Who could be so lucky as to be the Duke's relative?
00:11:32Pardon to interrupt, but if he's here visiting his family, then there's a chance.
00:11:38Then possibly the Duke is my Arthur.
00:11:41Don't be stupid.
00:11:46This is the Duke, second in authority only to the king.
00:11:50How could a man like that be your son?
00:11:53Your son probably died on the battlefield.
00:11:56Stop being delusional.
00:12:00No.
00:12:01I must see the Duke.
00:12:03Duke, have you lost your mind?
00:12:06Duke, have you lost your mind?
00:12:10I just want to make sure he's my Arthur.
00:12:26Did someone call my name just now?
00:12:39Your Grace, it's probably just the wind playing tricks.
00:12:42No one here would dare to speak your name so boldly.
00:12:45What were you thinking?
00:12:52Your actions will bring my family down with you.
00:12:55Robert just became butler.
00:12:57I won't have you ruining things for him.
00:13:00I swear, that was my son.
00:13:03That was Arthur.
00:13:04You have truly gone mad.
00:13:06That was the Duke.
00:13:07The second most important man in the entire kingdom.
00:13:11How could a man of such standing be your son?
00:13:16He looked just like him.
00:13:18I swear that...
00:13:20Do you mean to get us all hung?
00:13:25Calling the Duke your son?
00:13:27What an insult to that fine gentleman.
00:13:30Please, just let me speak to him.
00:13:34Let me show him this.
00:13:41Ow!
00:13:47Robert!
00:13:49Robert, don't!
00:13:51Not while the Duke is here.
00:13:54Robert!
00:13:55What are you doing to my mother?
00:13:58Anna!
00:14:00Give me that back.
00:14:01I needed to find Arthur.
00:14:03Worthless piece of junk.
00:14:05Robert, we're family.
00:14:07We're supposed to help each other.
00:14:09What do you have done?
00:14:10Family?
00:14:12It's bad enough that we share the same blood.
00:14:15My son has risen up through the ranks,
00:14:18while yours only grows poorer and poorer.
00:14:22It's pathetic, really.
00:14:25You know what?
00:14:25I gave all of my wages so that you could find Arthur,
00:14:30and you...
00:14:30You never even planned to find Arthur.
00:14:35You never even thought to look for him.
00:14:38You liar!
00:14:39You cheat!
00:14:41Give me back my coin!
00:14:43Don't touch me with your filthy hands!
00:14:46In this,
00:14:47say goodbye to your son.
00:14:53No!
00:14:55No!
00:14:56Mother!
00:14:57Mother, no!
00:14:58Come, Mother.
00:15:09Let's go.
00:15:12Oh, Anna, what have I done?
00:15:14We'll never be able to find Arthur enough with this.
00:15:17It's all right.
00:15:17It's all right, Mother.
00:15:18Have you forgotten?
00:15:19I carry one, too.
00:15:22Oh, Anna.
00:15:23Now, if you truly believe the Duke might be our Arthur,
00:15:27I'll see what I can do.
00:15:39Arthur, my brother,
00:15:41could it really be you?
00:15:42Your Grace,
00:15:48my Lord.
00:16:07Oh, forgive me, Your Grace.
00:16:09Useless girl.
00:16:15Your Grace,
00:16:16are you all right?
00:16:17I'm fine, Lord Benjamin.
00:16:19No need to punish her for a simple mistake.
00:16:22Your kindness humbles us all.
00:16:25Well,
00:16:26don't just sit there.
00:16:28Free yourself up.
00:16:32Why does she seem so familiar?
00:16:35Seems that I have someone
00:16:37the Duke might want.
00:16:39How could Robert do this to you?
00:16:45He beat you.
00:16:48You're his aunt for crying out loud.
00:16:50Oh, Carl.
00:16:52You know your family
00:16:53has always been cruel to us.
00:16:56It's only going to get worse
00:16:57now that Robert is
00:16:59butler to the baron.
00:17:02Mother?
00:17:03Father?
00:17:04Father?
00:17:04This place is so familiar to me
00:17:09and it's strategic.
00:17:12I'll build a new fort here.
00:17:15See to it that all the families
00:17:16along this road
00:17:16are asked to leave
00:17:17and compensate them well.
00:17:19I will start the process right away.
00:17:28Father?
00:17:29Yeah?
00:17:29What did the Duke say?
00:17:31Did he...
00:17:31Mother?
00:17:36What?
00:17:37I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.
00:17:40No.
00:17:42He does...
00:17:43He does resemble him, yes,
00:17:44but he didn't recognize the necklace.
00:17:47No.
00:17:48I'm so sorry.
00:17:52I thought I was him.
00:17:54I wanted to come back
00:17:55and give you the necklace.
00:17:57I know at least you'll sleep easier
00:18:00knowing this is by your side.
00:18:04Oh.
00:18:11Oh, your grace.
00:18:13I dare say
00:18:14you look as handsome as ever.
00:18:16These clothes are much more comfortable.
00:18:24Leave me.
00:18:25I wish to explore the city by myself.
00:18:28See if anything can jog my memory.
00:18:30Yes, your grace.
00:18:39Well, it must be Anna.
00:18:40She must have forgot something.
00:18:44Anna?
00:18:44What are you all doing here?
00:18:54Especially after what you did to my wife.
00:18:56Long time no see, brother.
00:18:58Still living in this hovel, huh?
00:19:00Would you like some bread?
00:19:03We were just about to sit down for lunch,
00:19:05so I can offer you a fresh loaf.
00:19:07You call this food?
00:19:09The baron's dogs wouldn't eat this.
00:19:17But fortune favors the undeserving.
00:19:21Now you'll be able to buy some real food.
00:19:25What do you mean, Laura?
00:19:26Tell them, Robert.
00:19:27It really is a shack.
00:19:38But luckily, it'll be gone soon.
00:19:41Your land has been seized.
00:19:43This entire street will be dug up to make way for the new fort.
00:19:46No.
00:19:46To bolster our defenses.
00:19:49The order came directly from the Duke himself.
00:19:51No.
00:19:52But you will be well compensated for the trouble.
00:19:56What?
00:19:57Just sign here and you'll receive 20 gold pieces.
00:20:02As your brother, I should be entitled to half.
00:20:05But as you have no son, and I have a son,
00:20:09I ought to take two thirds.
00:20:10What?
00:20:11No, this is our family home.
00:20:13What?
00:20:13No.
00:20:14If Arthur returns, how will he find his way home?
00:20:17She's right.
00:20:18We won't give up our land.
00:20:19Not for 20 gold coins.
00:20:20Not for nothing.
00:20:21Then you are dafter than I thought.
00:20:23Let me remind you,
00:20:25your son is not coming back because he's dead.
00:20:30No.
00:20:31No, no, no.
00:20:32You hold your tongue.
00:20:33Arthur will return.
00:20:34And we will remain here until he does.
00:20:36We won't give up hope.
00:20:37Not for any penny coin.
00:20:39You don't get a say.
00:20:41The order comes from above.
00:20:42Enough of this insolence.
00:20:43Leave my house at once.
00:20:45Leave my house.
00:20:46Carl.
00:20:51Carl, you're right.
00:20:53We are family.
00:20:56We are supposed to support each other.
00:20:57And if you can't do that, then leave.
00:20:59Then you've chosen death.
00:21:01So be it.
00:21:06This place really does feel so familiar.
00:21:12What?
00:21:13What are you doing?
00:21:19I'll tell you this one last time.
00:21:22Sign the damn contract or I'll beat you to death.
00:21:25You are his brother.
00:21:26How can you do this to him?
00:21:27No man as useless as him deserves to be my brother.
00:21:34Sign it now.
00:21:35Stop it.
00:21:49Stop it.
00:21:50Stop it.
00:21:50That's an order.
00:22:03What's a peasant like you doing here?
00:22:08Cross me and I'll beat you up too.
00:22:11You know who my son works for?
00:22:12The Baron.
00:22:13We're here to seize this land off his orders.
00:22:15So you better stay out of our affairs.
00:22:18So you're the Baron's henchman.
00:22:19I told him to see that every family is compensated fairly.
00:22:23And this is how you choose to do it?
00:22:32Good folks.
00:22:34You have my word.
00:22:35I will make this matter right.
00:22:37Lord Benjamin requests your land to build a new fort.
00:22:39But we will provide whatever is necessary for you.
00:22:42Do you know the Baron?
00:22:44Could you plead to him on our behalf, please?
00:22:46All we ask is that we remain here.
00:22:49We cannot leave our home, please.
00:22:51Rest assured, you will be well compensated if you choose to depart.
00:22:55No, we don't want coin.
00:22:58This is my son's home.
00:23:00If it's torn down, he will never find his way home.
00:23:03Your son was taken, you say?
00:23:04Yes.
00:23:06He was only 13 years old.
00:23:08Taken far too young, conscripted by the Baron's soldiers.
00:23:11If we leave, he'll never find his way back.
00:23:16Please.
00:23:18Please, I beg of you.
00:23:23Is this pinned?
00:23:24Yes.
00:23:25If it was a token, a promise,
00:23:27then my children and I would always be family together.
00:23:34This one is for you, Arthur.
00:23:41What?
00:23:52Mother.
00:23:53Arthur.
00:23:56Oh, is it you?
00:23:58It's me, Mom.
00:24:00Mom.
00:24:00I've come home.
00:24:02My boy.
00:24:03Ten long years.
00:24:05We searched for you.
00:24:07And finally, you put back to us.
00:24:09I'm sorry.
00:24:12I've been a bad son.
00:24:14But I promise, I will give you the life you deserve from here on out.
00:24:19Please forgive me.
00:24:28Can we stop with the theatrics?
00:24:30Ten years have passed, and Cousin Arthur returns as a peasant.
00:24:35I'd cry too if this were my son.
00:24:37Laura and George, do you see?
00:24:39Arthur has come home.
00:24:41What's there to cheer for?
00:24:42A beggar for a son?
00:24:44Or a thief, more likely.
00:24:46Look at him.
00:24:47Wandering around, starving and desperate.
00:24:51I don't care what you say, but my son has come home, and he is everything to me.
00:24:57Let's go inside, and I will make your favorite roast.
00:25:00And George and Laura, I would prefer if you left.
00:25:04We'd like to celebrate alone as a family.
00:25:07We're not leaving until you sign the contract, you useless fool.
00:25:14No, Robert, surely you understand.
00:25:16You're family.
00:25:17We'd like to celebrate.
00:25:19This low life doesn't deserve anything.
00:25:22I'm done arguing with you with this pigsty.
00:25:28Don't you point your finger at me.
00:25:30I could do much worse.
00:25:32Or do you want me to get my fiancée so you can beg for her forgiveness instead?
00:25:37Remember, I'm engaged to the prestigious Lady Edith.
00:25:41If she finds out about this, you'll all get a good beating.
00:25:45Go away!
00:25:45This is a joyous day, and I do not wish to spend it squabbling with you, Bilk.
00:25:59Kneel before us, apologize, and be gone.
00:26:07You son of a whore.
00:26:09I'm the Baron's butler, the highest on his staff.
00:26:13If you think I'd kneel to a common maid, you better show your respect.
00:26:22Now will you go?
00:26:26You scum!
00:26:27I'll have you know just how much I am worth.
00:26:30Inform Lady Edith.
00:26:32Ask her to come, won't you?
00:26:33Yes, Mr. Wellesley.
00:26:35Well, well, well.
00:26:36You fools have chosen not to take the gold, but it was the Baron's orders.
00:26:41Your hovel must come down.
00:26:43Lord Benjamin's orders, was it?
00:26:45That's Baron Stamford to you.
00:26:48On the contrary.
00:26:49I think I can call him Benjamin just fine.
00:26:53Are you mad?
00:26:54Who do you think you are?
00:26:57The Duke?
00:26:58Pulling rank like you're anything special.
00:27:01I dare say I'm special enough that even Lord Benjamin would kneel before me.
00:27:06What's that I hear about the Baron?
00:27:12Lord Benjamin, sir.
00:27:13The Duke has dismissed his guards and gone on a stroll.
00:27:16Where to?
00:27:17Around where the families are being asked to relocate, sir.
00:27:20What?
00:27:21Well, I hope he doesn't run into the Wellesleys.
00:27:24Guards, come with me.
00:27:25What's that I hear about the Baron?
00:27:35Did I just hear someone disrespecting my cousin, the Baron of Stamford?
00:27:40I tried to pay these lowlifes with gold, but they refused to leave their pigsty, and their
00:27:48son even hit me.
00:27:53You scumbag.
00:27:54How dare you lay your dirty hands on my fiancé?
00:27:57Do you know who I am?
00:28:00Why would I care who you are?
00:28:02He hit my parents, so I hit him back.
00:28:04Sounds fair to me.
00:28:06You are in the town of Stamford, my cousin's jurisdiction, and Robert is his head butler.
00:28:12You'll pay for what you've done.
00:28:15Bring him to the dungeons.
00:28:16No.
00:28:17I'll teach him a lesson.
00:28:18No, no, no, no, please don't.
00:28:20No, please don't.
00:28:22Lord Benjamin's cousin.
00:28:24Is this how he taught you to behave?
00:28:26Oh.
00:28:28I didn't expect a lowly peasant like you to know who my cousin is.
00:28:32Don't tell me he's spoken to you before.
00:28:34Of course.
00:28:35In fact, why don't you ask him who I am?
00:28:38That's enough.
00:28:39Guards, seize him.
00:28:41No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:28:43Take him!
00:28:43Please, he just came back!

00:53:42don't worry you'll see oh
00:53:57lady adela this is all very splendid you must introduce us to the duke when he arrives oh mrs moore
00:54:04of course as the baron of stanford my father is very close to the duke it's likely he was the one to
00:54:11recommend john in the first place of course the duke would love to meet you i cannot believe it a
00:54:18noble title lady adela you are simply full of surprises you are the best match for john no doubt
00:54:25about it i mean to ask adela why would someone like the duke come to stanford in the first place
00:54:32well stanford is his hometown the king dispatched him here to oversee the building of a new fort
00:54:38the real reason is his parents he was separated from them when he was a child even this banquet i
00:54:45hear is all for them must be good noble people to rear such a fine man like the duke we must make a
00:54:53good impression

00:55:22this banquet i've arranged it all for you i'll introduce you to everyone shortly
00:55:28our third don't just what do you mean for us mother i'm serious this is all for you but

00:56:11i knew those ill-bred dogs would go away that easily scoundrels all mrs moore rest easy this banquet is held
