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

01:13:02mother,
01:13:02Anna,

01:13:15is better

01:13:17as a family.
01:13:19And together
