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.
00:00:23Because 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, clouded 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.
00:01:18I'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.
00:01:43May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.
00:01:49Thank you, Mom.
00:01:50I 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, I...
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.
00:02:14Okay.
00:02:20I'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!
00:02:39Bye!
00:02:41Bye!
00:02:41Bye!
00:02:42Bye!
00:02:43Bye!
00:02:43Bye!
00:02:44Bye!
00:02:45Bye!
00:02:46Bye!
00:02:47Bye!
00:02:48Bye!
00:02:49Bye!
00:02:50Bye!
00:02:51Bye!
00:02:52Bye!
00:02:57Every man must stand and fight.
00:02:59Take him.
00:03:00Stop!
00:03:01No!
00:03:02I'm only 13!
00:03:03Let me go!
00:03:04Mama!
00:03:05Mother!
00:03:06Mother!
00:03:07Mother!
00:03:08Mother!

00:03:15Mother!
00:03:16Mother!
00:03:17Mother!
00:03:18Mother!
00:03:19Mother!
00:03:20Mother!
00:03:21Mother!
00:03:22Mother!
00:03:23Mother!
00:03:24Mother!
00:03:25Mother!
00:03:26Mother!
00:03:27Mother!
00:03:28Mother!
00:03:29Mother!
00:03:30Mother!
00:03:31Mother!
00:03:32Mother!
00:03:33Mother!
00:03:34Mother!
00:03:35Mother!
00:03:36Mother!
00:03:37Mother!
00:03:38Mother!
00:03:39Mother!
00:03:40Mother!
00:03:41Mother!
00:03:42Mother!
00:03:43Mother!
00:03:44Mother!
00:03:45Mother!
00:03:46Mother!
00:03:47Have 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.
00:04:02No.
00:04:04No.
00:04:16Kate!
00:04:17You're hurt.
00:04:19Girl, they took him.
00:04:22We have to get him.
00:04:23He's only 13.
00:04:24He wants to arrive on the battlefield.
00:04:27Let's go.
00:04:29No?
00:04:30Have you seen a boy?
00:04:31Have you seen Arthur?
00:04:31He's our son?
00:04:32Right here with 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.
00:04:44Yes, that's him.
00:04:46Where is he?
00:04:46Your 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.
00:04:58If you didn't want him gone, you should have kept him at home.
00:05:07You have no one to blame but yourself.
00:05:10It's all my fault I killed him.
00:05:13I 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.
00:05:22Comet, now.
00:05:23Foolish as they are.
00:05:24We can't just kill as we wish.
00:05:28Comet boy from filth like you.
00:05:30He was doomed from the moment he met us.
00:05:32He's right.
00:05:39I told my fault he shouldn't have let him alone.
00:05:42You mustn't do this to yourself.
00:05:44We will bring our boy home.
00:05:47Arthur.
00:05:47Arthur.
00:05:51Where are you?
00:05:52You mustn't do this to yourself.
00:06:22I have a feeling I know why you're here.
00:06:30Your Majesty.
00:06:32Nothing escapes you.
00:06:34Nothing 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.
00:06:52Go, my boy.
00:06:56You've fought enough battles for me and 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.
00:07:10Find your family.
00:07:12They would be so proud to see the man you've become.
00:07:16And while you're at it, build me that castle, eh?
00:07:20I won't let you down, sir.
00:07:30I miss you.
00:07:34Robert, my sweet nephew, here.
00:07:36All my wages.
00:07:40I'm depending on you.
00:07:42You work for the Baron now, so please help me find your cousin.
00:07:46I beg of you.
00:07:47Aunt Jane, my connections are expensive.
00:07:52I'll look into it, but not today.
00:07:55The Duke is coming to Stamford.
00:07:57Everything has to be perfect.
00:07:59The Duke is coming.
00:08:00Okay.
00:08:02Robert, maybe you can ask the Duke to help me find my son.
00:08:06I'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.
00:08:14Have you lost your wits?
00:08:17Ask the Duke for help.
00:08:19Who do you think you are?
00:08:20Even the Baron wouldn't dare trouble the Duke for such trifles.
00:08:25Robert, please, just have him take a look.
00:08:28You...
00:08:28It's your own fault you lost your son.
00:08:42Don'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.
00:08:50But you promised that if I gave you all of my wages,
00:08:53you would help me find my son.
00:08:55I told you, not today.
00:08:59The Duke could be here any second.
00:09:02Get lost before he sees your ugly face.
00:09:08The Duke is here.
00:09:10Go.
00:09:10Get.
00:09:21That's the Duke.
00:09:23He's the one that defeated the five kingdoms.
00:09:25A king treats me like a son.
00:09:28A king treats me like a son.
00:09:55Presenting his grace, the Duke of Mercia.
00:10:14Welcome, Your Grace.
00:10:16Lord Benjamin, there's no need for such formalities.
00:10:19We've known each other for a decade now, have we not?
00:10:22Your Grace, it was I who was sending you to the battlefield.
00:10:26I beg for your forgiveness.
00:10:28It was on the battlefield that I earned my honor.
00:10:31You are too kind, Your Grace.
00:10:33I've returned to find my family.
00:10:35Well, please tell me who they are and where they reside.
00:10:38I shall have them brought here at once.
00:10:40My memories are faint, clouded by the injury I sustained during the war.
00:10:43But my mother, she wore a pendant like this.
00:10:52May God bless us and guide us and keep us together as one family.
00:10:58Could this be me?
00:11:09Find who this belongs to.
00:11:10I will see to this personally.
00:11:15Mom, where are you?
00:11:18The Duke of Mercia has come to the baron's manor.
00:11:25The king must hold him in high regard.
00:11:28They say he's looking for his family.
00:11:30Who could be so lucky as to be the Duke's relative?
00:11:33Pardon to interrupt, but if he's here visiting his family,
00:11:38then there's a chance that possibly the Duke is my author.
00:11:42Don't be stupid.
00:11:47This is the Duke, second in authority only to the king.
00:11:51How could a man like that be your son?
00:11:54Your son probably died on the battlefield.
00:11:57Stop being delusional.
00:12:01No.
00:12:02I must see the Duke.
00:12:05Have you lost your mind?
00:12:12I just want to make sure he's my Arthur.
00:12:38Did someone call my name just now?
00:12:39Your Grace, it's probably just the wind playing tricks.
00:12:43No 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.
00:12:56Robert just became butler.
00:12:58I 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, the 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...
00:13:21Ow!
00:13:22Ow!
00:13:23Do you mean to get us all hung?
00:13:26Calling the Duke your son?
00:13:28What an insult to that fine gentleman.
00:13:31Please, just let me speak to him.
00:13:34Let me show him this.
00:13:35Ow!
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!
00:13:59Anna!
00:14:00Give me that back I needed to find Arthur.
00:14:03Worthless piece of junk.
00:14:05Robert, we're a family.
00:14:07We're supposed to help each other.
00:14:10What you've done.
00:14:11Family?
00:14:12It's bad enough that we share the same blood.
00:14:16My son has risen up through the ranks,
00:14:19while yours only grows poorer and poorer.
00:14:23It's pathetic, really.
00:14:25I know, but I gave all of my wages so that you could find Arthur, and you...
00:14:31You 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!
00:14:46In this, say goodbye to your son.
00:14:49Mother!
00:14:54No!
00:14:55No!
00:14:57Mother!
00:14:58Mother, no!
00:15:03I don't feel like this!
00:15:03Mother, no!
00:15:05Ow!
00:15:05No!
00:15:07Ow!
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 or not with this.
00:15:17It's alright mother, have you forgotten? I carry one too.
00:15:24Now if you truly believe the Duke might be our Arthur, I'll see what I can do.
00:15:39Arthur, my brother, could it really be you?
00:15:47Your Grace, my lord.
00:16:08Forgive me, Your Grace!
00:16:12Useless girl!
00:16:14Your Grace, are you alright?
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.
00:16:28Feet yourself up!
00:16:32Why does she seem so familiar?
00:16:35Seems that I have someone the Duke might want.
00:16:38How could Robert do this to you?
00:16:43He 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.
00:16:55It's only gonna get worse now that Robert is butler to the baron.
00:17:00To the baron.
00:17:02Mother.
00:17:03Father.
00:17:06This place is so familiar to me.
00:17:09And it's strategic.
00:17:12I'll build the new fort here.
00:17:14See to it that all the families along this road are asked to leave.
00:17:17And compensate them well.
00:17:18I will start the process right away.
00:17:27Father.
00:17:29What did the Duke say?
00:17:31Did he...
00:17:35Mother.
00:17:37I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.
00:17:40No.
00:17:42He does, he does resemble him, yes, but he didn't recognize the necklace.
00:17:46No.
00:17:50I'm so sorry.
00:17:52I thought I was him.
00:17:54I wanted to come back and give you the necklace.
00:17:57I know at least you'll sleep easier knowing this is by your side.
00:18:03Thank you, Anna.
00:18:07Oh.
00:18:08Your Grace, I dare say you 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.
00:18:27See if anything can jog my memory.
00:18:29Yes, Your Grace.
00:18:30Oh, it must be Anna. She must have forgot something.
00:18:42Anna?
00:18:44Oh.
00:18:46Yeah.
00:18:47What 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?
00:19:02We were just about to sit down for lunch.
00:19:05So I can offer you a fresh loaf.
00:19:06You call this food?
00:19:09The Baron's dogs wouldn't eat this.
00:19:17But fortune favors the undeserving.
00:19:20Now you'll be able to buy some real food.
00:19:24What do you mean, Laura?
00:19:26Tell them, Robert.
00:19:27What?
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.
00:19:46To bolster our defenses.
00:19:48The order came directly from the Duke himself.
00:19:51But you will be well compensated for the trouble.
00:19:55What?
00:19:56Just sign here and you'll receive 20 gold pieces.
00:20:01As 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?
00:20:11No, this is our family home.
00:20:13No.
00:20:15If Arthur returns, how will he find his way home?
00:20:17She's right. We won't give up our land.
00:20:19Not for 20 gold coins, not for nothing.
00:20:21Then 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, Arthur will return.
00:20:33And we will remain here until he does.
00:20:35Yes.
00:20:36We won't give up hope, not for any penny coin.
00:20:37You don't get a say. The order comes from above.
00:20:41Enough of this insolence! Leave my house at once! Leave my house!
00:20:44Carl!
00:20:46Carl!
00:20:48Carl!
00:20:50Carl, are you alright?
00:20:52We are family!
00:20:54We are supposed to support each other and if you can't do that, then leave!
00:20:58Then you've chosen death! So be it!
00:21:01This place really does feel so familiar.
00:21:06What?
00:21:07What are you doing?
00:21:09I'll tell you this one last time. Sign the damn contract or I'll beat you to death!
00:21:23You are his brother, how can you do this to him?
00:21:25No man as useless as him deserves to be my brother!
00:21:28Oh!
00:21:29Ow!
00:21:30You're a monster!
00:21:31Sign it! Now!
00:21:32No!
00:21:33No!
00:21:34No!
00:21:35No!
00:21:36No!
00:21:37No!
00:21:38Ah!

00:22:23Ah!
00:22:24Ah!
00:22:25Ah!
00:22:26Ah!
00:22:27Ah!
00:22:28Good folks, you have my word.
00:22:33I will make this matter right.
00:22:35Lord Benjamin requests your land to build a new fort,
00:22:38but we will provide whatever is necessary for you.
00:22:41Do you know the Baron?
00:22:42Could you plead to him on our behalf, please?
00:22:45All we ask is that we remain here.
00:22:47We cannot leave our home, please.
00:22:49Rest assured, you will be well compensated
00:22:52if you choose to depart.
00:22:54No, we don't want coin.
00:22:56This is my son's home.
00:22:58If it's torn down, he will never find his way home.
00:23:01Your son was taken, you say?
00:23:03Yes.
00:23:04He was only 13 years old.
00:23:06Taken far too young, conscripted by the Baron's soldiers.
00:23:10If we leave, he'll never find his way back.
00:23:14Please.
00:23:16Please, I beg of you.
00:23:21He's pinned.
00:23:22Yes.
00:23:23He was a token, a promise said.
00:23:25My children and I would always be a family together.
00:23:32This one is for you, Arthur.
00:23:38What?
00:23:49Mother.
00:23:51Arthur.
00:23:52Oh, is it you?
00:23:57It's me, Mom.
00:23:58I've come home.
00:24:00My boy.
00:24:01Ten long years.
00:24:03We searched for you.
00:24:05And finally, you come back to us.
00:24:09I'm sorry.
00:24:10I've been a bad son.
00:24:12But I promise, I will give you the life you deserve from here on out.
00:24:17Please forgive me.
00:24:26Can we stop with the theatrics?
00:24:28Ten years have passed, and cousin Arthur returns as a peasant.
00:24:33I'd cry too if this were my son.
00:24:35Laura and George, do you see?
00:24:37Arthur has come home.
00:24:39What's there to cheer for?
00:24:40A beggar for a son?
00:24:41Or a thief, more likely.
00:24:44Look at him.
00:24:45Wandering around, starving and desperate.
00:24:49I don't care what you say.
00:24:51But my son has come home, and he is everything to me.
00:24:55Let's go inside, and I will make your favorite roast.
00:24:58And George and Laura, I would prefer if you left.
00:25:02We'd like to celebrate alone as a family.
00:25:05We're not leaving until you sign the contract, you useless fool.
00:25:12No, Robert, surely you understand.
00:25:14You're family.
00:25:15We'd like to celebrate.
00:25:16This low life doesn't deserve anything.
00:25:20I'm done arguing with you with this pigsty.
00:25:25Don't you point your finger at me.
00:25:27I could do much worse.
00:25:29Or do you want me to get my fiancée so you can beg for her forgiveness instead?
00:25:34Remember, I'm engaged to the prestigious Lady Edith.
00:25:38If she finds out about this, you'll all get a good beating.
00:25:42Go away!
00:25:43Shh!
00:25:50This 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.
00:26:04You son of a whore.
00:26:06I'm the Baron's butler, the highest on his staff.
00:26:10You think I'd kneel to a common maid?
00:26:14You better show your respect.
00:26:16Now will you go?
00:26:23You scum!
00:26:25I'll have you know just how much I am worth.
00:26:27Inform Lady Edith.
00:26:29Ask her to come, won't you?
00:26:30Yes, Mr. Wellesley.
00:26:32Well, well, well.
00:26:33You fools have chosen not to take the gold.
00:26:36But 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.
00:26:44On the contrary, I think I can call him Benjamin just fine.
00:26:50Are you mad?
00:26:52Who do you think you are?
00:26:54The Duke?
00:26:55Pulling 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.
00:27:10The 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?
00:27:18Well, 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?
00:27:33Did 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
00:27:45son 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?
00:27:56Why would I care who you are?
00:27:59He hit my parents, so I hit him back.
00:28:01Sounds fair to me.
00:28:03You 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.
00:28:12Bring him to the dungeons.
00:28:13No.
00:28:14I'll teach him a lesson.
00:28:15No.
00:28:16No, no, no.
00:28:16Please 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.
00:28:25I 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.
00:28:40No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:28:40Please, he just came back.
00:28:42No, no, no, no, no.
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.
00:28:56Kill 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.
00:29:07to 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.
00:29:29Let's go, Father.
00:29:31Serves you right, brother.
00:29:37I don't know.
00:29:43What happened here?
00:29:45Lord Benjamin, it was all your butler's doing.
00:29:49And 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?
00:29:58We need to go.
00:30:06Now!
00:30:08God, Carl, what are we going to do with Arthur's gun?
00:30:12Anne.
00:30:13Anne is 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 surely can't.
00:30:19We have to try, Carl.
00:30:21Please.
00:30:22You're right.
00:30:22We have to try.
00:30:24We have to find our son.
00:30:30What happened to that fire?
00:30:32That rage?
00:30:33Scared of the consequences now, runt?
00:30:36Consequences?
00:30:37For giving you what you deserve.
00:30:44Watch your mouth.
00:30:47Your family is done for, and you're still talking back.
00:30:51No, my lady.
00:30:53It's your family that's done for.
00:30:56I'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.
00:31:09It seems like you've gotten it in your head that you could do something to us.
00:31:13Let me remind you of your place.
00:31:21You insolent brat.
00:31:31What are you doing?
00:31:33Reminding you of your place.
00:31:38Stop it or I'll have you killed.
00:31:40You have me killed.
00:31:43You've got the wrong man.
00:31:44Consider it your warning, cousin.
00:32:00The gall of you.
00:32:02Threatening me and then calling yourself my cousin.
00:32:05I won't let you off easy.
00:32:07You 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.
00:32:19Hold it.
00:32:19You're not flogging anyone.
00:32:27Hold it!
00:32:35Oh, 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, you fool.
00:33:36There will be consequences, all right.
00:33:38For you!
00:33:38What 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.
00:33:51You've lost your mind.
00:33:53Do you know who this man is?
00:33:58Do you know who this man is?
00:34:00He is nothing but a beggar, the 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.
00:34:26Rightly so.
00:34:27He's a peasant, a beggar.
00:34:29How can 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?
00:34:42Shut 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?
00:34:54Lord Vengeance, it seems that you've neglected your duties as baron.
00:35:08Your people have shown me nothing but disdain.
00:35:11They 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.
00:35:40Cousin.
00:35:41It's my fault.
00:35:45See, Your Grace, I've been a fool.
00:35:49Punish me, flog me as you will.
00:35:52We 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.
00:36:04He's only just delivered us from the clutches of poverty.
00:36:07Please, we adore him so you must kill him or exile him.
00:36:14Please, I beg you, as your uncle, as your father's own brother.
00:36:19You're too cruel, Arthur.
00:36:22How can you do this to another Wellesley?
00:36:28Cruelty.
00:36:30Have you forgotten your cruelty to mother and father?
00:36:32Threatening to leave them homeless and laughing in their face when they begged you.
00:36:36Have 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?
00:36:51I'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 and think about what you've done.
00:37:03You'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'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.
00:37:46Don'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.
00:38:04Gods!
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.
00:38:13No!
00:38:15No!
00:38:16Cousin!
00:38:17Please!
00:38:17Please!
00:38:18Please, please!
00:38:19No!
00:38:21And good news, Benjamin.
00:38:27I found my parents.
00:38:29That is wonderful, Your Grace.
00:38:31What a blessed day it is.
00:38:33I wish to host a banquet tonight.
00:38:35Introduce my parents to upper society.
00:38:39Life has been cruel to them.
00:38:40And 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 here, doesn't she?
00:38:58Seems that I have someone the Duke might want.
00:39:01Mr. Wellesley, Lord Benjamin says Anna is to attend to the Duke personally for the next few days.
00:39:09Did you just say Anna?
00:39:16It's in the maid, Anna.
00:39:18Right.
00:39:19Anna.
00:39:20She works here, doesn't she?
00:39:21Bring me to her.
00:39:22No, Your Grace.
00:39:24I...
00:39:24What?
00:39:25I thought...
00:39:26I thought that you fancied her, so I...
00:39:28What have you done?
00:39:30Bring me to her right now!
00:39:31You have fine features for a scullery maid.
00:39:47I can see why he likes you.
00:39:50Mr. Crowley, did you need something?
00:39:53Yes, pet.
00:39:55You've 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.
00:40:19Perfect.
00:40:21I 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.
00:40:32You are to be his mistress.
00:40:34To 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?
00:40:59Still think you can say no, whore?
00:41:00Please, I don't want to.
00:41:07It's a good opportunity, dammit.
00:41:11Mr. 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?
00:41:36Serve the Duke, and the money's yours.
00:41:38You'll have no short supply of expensive little trinkets.
00:41:49I 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, not 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.
00:42:27Hands off of her.
00:42:30He didn't hurt you, did he?
00:42:32Are you the Duke, sir?
00:42:34Sir, what is the meaning of this?
00:42:38You imbecile!
00:42:40But, sir, you said...
00:42:43Have 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.
00:43:15She's his sister?
00:43:21The lowly maid is his sister?
00:43:24Are 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!
00:43:36Where have you been all these years doing this too terribly?
00:43:40There, there.
00:43:43Let me deal with this man first.
00:43:49Once again, Lord Benjamin,
00:43:52your men have shown their true colors.
00:43:55Disgusting and vile.
00:43:56Sir, I failed to discipline them.
00:44:00But yes, sir, Duke.
00:44:04I was wrong.
00:44:06I would have never treated her like that
00:44:08had I known that she was your sister.
00:44:12Yet you see no issue
00:44:14in 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,
00:44:24you're worthless to me.
00:44:25No, it was Benjamin, the Baron.
00:44:27He asked me to.
00:44:29No, I didn't.
00:44:30God, throw him into the dungeon.
00:44:33No, no, please.
00:44:34No, sir.
00:44:36No, no.
00:44:38No.
00:44:40Anna, tell me truly.
00:44:43Are you all right?
00:44:45Yes, I am now.
00:44:47Because you're back.
00:44:49And I can't believe it.
00:44:50You're the Duke.
00:44:51Oh, 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
00:45:01the years have been quite hard on them.
00:45:03But it's all worth it
00:45:04because you're back.
00:45:06Anna, stay here.
00:45:09I'll bring them here, okay?
00:45:12Duke Arthur,
00:45:13I believe that your parents
00:45:14are currently of the Moors.
00:45:16John Moore has been engaged
00:45:17to your sister for some time.
00:45:20Yes, John and I are engaged,
00:45:23but...
00:45:24He's your fiancé, Anna.
00:45:26So I'll love him like a brother.
00:45:28Lord Benjamin,
00:45:29arrange a feast for tonight.
00:45:31I want to show our parents
00:45:32high society
00:45:32and invite John Moore.
00:45:36I'll speak to the king.
00:45:37See if he can grant him
00:45:38a noble title.
00:45:39As you wish, Duke Arthur.
00:45:51Is that the Moors' home?
00:45:53Fine place for a merchant family,
00:45:54but...
00:45:55they'll be able to afford
00:45:56better very soon.
00:45:57Well, we're here.
00:46:03The home of our
00:46:03supposed son-in-law.
00:46:05Yeah.
00:46:13You tottering fool.
00:46:16Why have you come back?
00:46:21John, this is your fiancé's father.
00:46:24You will call me
00:46:25Mr. Moore.
00:46:28And you are nothing to me.
00:46:30John!
00:46:31That's Mr. Moore.
00:46:33Shut up.
00:46:34I'm sorry.
00:46:36Mr. Moore,
00:46:37please, let's talk.
00:46:39And what is this
00:46:40about me being
00:46:40your daughter's fiancé?
00:46:43You've always been poor,
00:46:44but now you're liars, too.
00:46:46Mr. Moore,
00:46:47you know as well as I do.
00:46:49You've been
00:46:49betrothed to Anna for years.
00:46:52Your father and I,
00:46:52we had an arrangement.
00:46:53That may be so,
00:46:54but circumstances
00:46:56have changed.
00:46:57Do you think
00:46:58my father
00:46:59would want me
00:47:00marrying someone
00:47:01that comes from
00:47:02you filthy swine?
00:47:03That's not why
00:47:04we'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,
00:47:18we didn't come here
00:47:19today for money.
00:47:20That's enough!
00:47:21If your breath
00:47:23reeks,
00:47:24beat some sense
00:47:26into the old
00:47:26caja and take him
00:47:27out of here.
00:47:29I'd like to see you
00:47:30try.
00:47:33I'd like to see you
00:47:34try.
00:47:38Arthur,
00:47:39my boy,
00:47:40they set you free.
00:47:42Rightfully so,
00:47:43father.
00:47:43Oh, Arthur.
00:47:44it's so good
00:47:45to see you
00:47:46alive and well.
00:47:48Father,
00:47:49mother,
00:47:50Robert's been punished
00:47:51for what he did
00:47:52to you.
00:47:53You must be the son
00:47:54I keep hearing
00:47:55so much about.
00:47:56Weren't you kidnapped
00:47:57to join the army?
00:47:59Run away,
00:48:00did you?
00:48:01And now you've
00:48:02come here to leech
00:48:02off me?
00:48:03You're John Moore.
00:48:06Now,
00:48:07did I hear you say
00:48:08you wanted
00:48:09to have
00:48:09my father
00:48:10beaten?
00:48:11So what
00:48:11if I did?
00:48:13What's a runt
00:48:14like you
00:48:15going to do
00:48:15about it anyway?
00:48:17Cry?
00:48:18Piss your pants?
00:48:19Say that again.
00:48:27If you think
00:48:27I'm going to
00:48:28take it easy
00:48:28on you
00:48:29because you're
00:48:29engaged to my sister,
00:48:31then you'd be wrong.
00:48:33Let go of me,
00:48:34you dirty dog!
00:48:38Resulting to violence
00:48:41now, are we?
00:48:42Like the lowlife
00:48:44you are.
00:48:45Come on then.
00:48:47Hit me.
00:48:48And you regret
00:48:48ever being born.
00:48:50You think that
00:48:50can stop me?
00:48:52Who do you think
00:48:53you are?
00:49:02Oh,
00:49:03it's just a peasant.
00:49:04John,
00:49:05my darling,
00:49:06I come bearing
00:49:06good news.
00:49:07Father says
00:49:08the duke has
00:49:09arranged for a banquet
00:49:10at the manor
00:49:10and you're invited.
00:49:12And the duke
00:49:12is going to ask
00:49:13the king
00:49:13to grant you
00:49:14a title.
00:49:15Finally,
00:49:15you can be part
00:49:15of upper society
00:49:16and we can marry.
00:49:17A title?
00:49:18Adela,
00:49:19tell me it's true.
00:49:20I finally have
00:49:21a name to match
00:49:21my wealth.
00:49:24No one will be
00:49:24able to tell us
00:49:25what to do.
00:49:26No one will be
00:49:26able to say no
00:49:27to us.
00:49:30Of course,
00:49:31it's true,
00:49:31John, darling.
00:49:32The duke adores
00:49:33my father.
00:49:33He's the baron,
00:49:34after all.
00:49:35In fact,
00:49:35the duke is
00:49:36at the manor
00:49:36right now.
00:49:38Don't waste
00:49:40your time
00:49:40with these peasants.
00:49:41Let's go,
00:49:41John.
00:49:42Lady Adela,
00:49:43I'm afraid we must
00:49:43deal with these
00:49:44peasants first.
00:49:45As duly as they
00:49:46are,
00:49:46this is Arthur,
00:49:48honor's brother.
00:49:49And now that I'm
00:49:50rich,
00:49:51he wants to force
00:49:51me to marry
00:49:52his sister.
00:49:53What did you say?
00:49:54Oh, I see.
00:49:58You're that boy
00:49:58that was kidnapped
00:49:59as a child.
00:50:01Well then,
00:50:02be gone.
00:50:03We have nothing
00:50:03to give a shameless
00:50:04beggar.
00:50:07Oh, don't touch me,
00:50:08you disgusting man.
00:50:09Don't you know
00:50:10who my father is?
00:50:11Lord Benjamin,
00:50:12evidently.
00:50:13Don't you know?
00:50:15Even your father
00:50:16watches his tongue
00:50:16around me.
00:50:18Ah!
00:50:18Adela.
00:50:20Oh, I can't believe
00:50:21I've been touched
00:50:22by a dirty beggar.
00:50:24Have you no manners
00:50:25around the rich?
00:50:26You scum.
00:50:28You better beg
00:50:28for forgiveness
00:50:29if you want to live.
00:50:30And what authority
00:50:31do you have over me?
00:50:33And what authority
00:50:34do you have over me?
00:50:35Every authority,
00:50:36peasant scum.
00:50:38My father
00:50:39is the Baron
00:50:40of Stamford.
00:50:41And now that you're
00:50:42all here,
00:50:42let it be known.
00:50:44I am not going
00:50:45to marry Anna.
00:50:47I am to be a noble,
00:50:48so do not let me
00:50:49catch sight of you
00:50:50all again.
00:50:52Going back
00:50:52on your word, John?
00:50:54That's unbecoming
00:50:55of your future title.
00:50:56I think John
00:50:57has made himself
00:50:57clear enough.
00:50:59Get lost,
00:50:59you blood-sucking leech.
00:51:01Leeching off of him?
00:51:03I would never.
00:51:05His money
00:51:06is as vile
00:51:06as his word.
00:51:09No matter.
00:51:11A man like you
00:51:12doesn't deserve
00:51:13my sister anyway.
00:51:15Men,
00:51:16get him.
00:51:18No!
00:51:20Men,
00:51:21get him.
00:51:22No!
00:51:25Arthur,
00:51:25we will tell
00:51:26Anna.
00:51:28But,
00:51:29please,
00:51:30we cannot anger
00:51:32Mr. Moore.
00:51:32He's going to be
00:51:33a noble now.
00:51:35At least your chambermaid
00:51:36of a mother
00:51:37knows how to act
00:51:38in front of men
00:51:38like me.
00:51:40Drop the matter
00:51:41and I'll let you leave.
00:51:44We'll go.
00:51:47But best you remember,
00:51:49it is the Wellesleys
00:51:51who called off
00:51:52this engagement.
00:51:54Because you,
00:51:56John Moore,
00:51:56are unfit
00:51:58for my sister.
00:52:02John Moore,
00:52:03are unfit
00:52:04for my sister.
00:52:05my word.
00:52:07Unfit
00:52:08for you.
00:52:10Let's see.
00:52:11Servant,
00:52:12servant,
00:52:13beggar.
00:52:14Oh,
00:52:14you're too funny.
00:52:16Take this as a friendly
00:52:17warning,
00:52:18John.
00:52:18Lest you regret
00:52:20your decision later.
00:52:21I've no mind
00:52:21to regret anything
00:52:23regarding you lot.
00:52:24Now that that's
00:52:25settled,
00:52:26if you ever
00:52:27speak to us again,
00:52:29I will have
00:52:29your legs cut off.
00:52:32Come now.
00:52:33We have a banquet
00:52:33to attend.
00:52:43That's the Moors
00:52:44for you.
00:52:45Some coin
00:52:46and they forget
00:52:47everything that
00:52:47we've ever done
00:52:48for them.
00:52:48Oh,
00:52:49Arthur,
00:52:49I wish we had
00:52:51had a better
00:52:52reception for you.
00:52:53Oh,
00:52:53Mother,
00:52:54don't say that,
00:52:55please.
00:52:55I've already
00:52:56arranged something
00:52:57for you.
00:52:57I finally found you.
00:52:59That's cause
00:52:59for celebration.
00:53:00You've arranged
00:53:01something?
00:53:02No.
00:53:03No,
00:53:03please.
00:53:05I hope you
00:53:06haven't spent
00:53:06any coin on us,
00:53:07Arthur.
00:53:08What have you
00:53:08arranged?
00:53:09Just something
00:53:10small at the
00:53:10Baron's Manor.
00:53:11Don't worry,
00:53:12Mother.
00:53:13It's been paid
00:53:14for.
00:53:14At the Baron's
00:53:15Manor?
00:53:15Arthur,
00:53:16haven't you heard
00:53:18the Duke
00:53:18will be there?
00:53:19We can't
00:53:20possibly impose.
00:53:21It's...
00:53:22Like I said,
00:53:23Mother,
00:53:24don't worry.
00:53:25You'll see.
00:53:27Oh,
00:53:27I'll see.
00:53:27Lady Adela,
00:53:38this is all
00:53:39very splendid.
00:53:40You must introduce
00:53:42us to the Duke
00:53:43when he arrives.
00:53:44Oh,
00:53:44Mrs. Moore,
00:53:45of course.
00:53:46As the Baron
00:53:47of Stamford,
00:53:47my father is
00:53:48very close
00:53:49to the Duke.
00:53:50It's likely
00:53:51he was the one
00:53:51to recommend
00:53:52John in the
00:53:53first place.
00:53:53Of course,
00:53:55the Duke
00:53:55would love
00:53:56to meet you.
00:53:57I cannot
00:53:57believe it.
00:53:58A noble title.
00:53:59Lady Adela,
00:54:00you are simply
00:54:01full of surprises.
00:54:03You are the best
00:54:03match for John,
00:54:04no doubt about it.
00:54:07I've been meaning
00:54:07to ask,
00:54:08Adela.
00:54:09Why would
00:54:09someone like
00:54:10the Duke
00:54:10come to Stanford
00:54:11in the first place?
00:54:12Well,
00:54:13Stamford is
00:54:13his hometown.
00:54:15The King
00:54:15dispatched him
00:54:16here to oversee
00:54:17the building
00:54:17of a new fort.
00:54:19The real reason
00:54:20is his parents.
00:54:21He was separated
00:54:22from them
00:54:23when he was a child.
00:54:24Even this banquet
00:54:25I hear is all
00:54:26for them.
00:54:27Must be good,
00:54:28noble people
00:54:29to rear such
00:54:30a fine man
00:54:31like the Duke.
00:54:32We must
00:54:32make a good impression.
00:54:34Mm-hmm.
00:54:53How did those
00:54:54peasants get in?
00:55:01This banquet,
00:55:03I've arranged
00:55:03it all for you.
00:55:05I'll introduce you
00:55:06to everyone shortly.
00:55:08Our third.
00:55:09Don't just,
00:55:10what do you mean
00:55:11for us?
00:55:12Mother,
00:55:13I'm serious.
00:55:15This is all for you.
00:55:17But,
00:55:18how could you
00:55:19have arranged
00:55:19all this?
00:55:20How much money
00:55:21did you spend?
00:55:22Money has nothing
00:55:23to do with it,
00:55:24Father.
00:55:24I just want
00:55:25to see you happy.
00:55:26We are happy.
00:55:28Truly happy.
00:55:29We're finally
00:55:30all together again.
00:55:36John,
00:55:36I thought you
00:55:37told them
00:55:37to get lost.
00:55:38Why are they back?
00:55:43John,
00:55:44I thought you
00:55:44told them
00:55:45to get lost.
00:55:46Why are they back?
00:55:46Damn lowlifes.
00:55:49They must
00:55:49entail the scene.
00:55:51I knew
00:55:51those ill-bred
00:55:52dogs
00:55:53would go away
00:55:54that easily.
00:55:55Scoundrels,
00:55:56all.
00:55:56Mrs. Moore,
00:55:58rest easy.
00:56:00This banquet
00:56:00is held
00:56:01on the Duke's
00:56:02orders,
00:56:03and Father
00:56:03asked me
00:56:04to see
00:56:04that our guests
00:56:05enjoy themselves.
00:56:07I have every
00:56:08authority
00:56:08to throw them out.
00:56:13Come.
00:56:16who let you
00:56:24in?
00:56:27Who let you
00:56:28in?
00:56:29You must be
00:56:30lost,
00:56:30peasant.
00:56:31This is the Duke's
00:56:32banquet,
00:56:33not the gruel
00:56:34kitchen.
00:56:35I suggest you
00:56:36turn around
00:56:36immediately.
00:56:37And I suggest
00:56:37you shut your
00:56:38mouth.
00:56:40This is my
00:56:41manor.
00:56:42My father
00:56:43is hosting it
00:56:44under direct
00:56:44orders of the Duke.
00:56:46you have no
00:56:47place to speak
00:56:48here.
00:56:49And you?
00:56:51You must be
00:56:52the bitch
00:56:53that John
00:56:53was engaged
00:56:54to.
00:56:54I'll have
00:56:55you know
00:56:56John is
00:56:57going to be
00:56:58a noble.
00:56:59You'll have
00:57:00no way
00:57:00into his
00:57:01home,
00:57:01unless you'd
00:57:02like to be
00:57:03our maid
00:57:03once we
00:57:04marry.
00:57:06Lowborn
00:57:06as I may
00:57:07be,
00:57:07I'm still
00:57:08more noble
00:57:08than a harlot
00:57:09like you.
00:57:10You wench.
00:57:12I will not
00:57:12let you talk
00:57:13to Lady Adela
00:57:13like this.
00:57:15Apologize.
00:57:16right now.
00:57:17I owe her
00:57:17nothing of the
00:57:18sort.
00:57:19She is the
00:57:19one who's
00:57:19courting an
00:57:20engaged man.
00:57:21I told
00:57:22your parents
00:57:23and your
00:57:24disgusting
00:57:25beggar of a
00:57:25brother,
00:57:26I called
00:57:27off the
00:57:28engagement.
00:57:29You're not
00:57:30good enough
00:57:30for me.
00:57:31You're wrong.
00:57:32It's you who
00:57:33isn't good
00:57:33enough for me.
00:57:35I would never
00:57:35marry a man
00:57:36with such a
00:57:36fickle heart
00:57:37who would
00:57:38abandon his
00:57:39fiancee just
00:57:39to chase
00:57:40after some
00:57:40harlot's
00:57:41coin.
00:57:45You dirty
00:57:46bitch.
00:57:47That's what
00:57:47you get for
00:57:48talking to
00:57:48my son
00:57:49like that.
00:57:52How dare
00:57:54you raise
00:57:54your hands
00:57:54to my
00:57:55daughter?
00:57:55How dare
00:57:56she insult
00:57:57my son?
00:57:58You're right,
00:57:59mother.
00:57:59We ought to
00:58:00slap some
00:58:00sense into
00:58:01them.
00:58:01Anna,
00:58:02look at
00:58:03yourself.
00:58:03You're
00:58:04nothing compared
00:58:05to Lady
00:58:05Adela.
00:58:06It's no
00:58:07wonder I
00:58:07chose her.
00:58:09Lady
00:58:09Adela is
00:58:10Lord
00:58:10Benjamin's
00:58:11daughter.
00:58:13What do
00:58:14you have
00:58:14that Lady
00:58:15Adela
00:58:15doesn't,
00:58:16besides this
00:58:17useless
00:58:18beggar of
00:58:19a brother?
00:58:21Do not
00:58:21insult my
00:58:22brother.
00:58:22He is more
00:58:23noble than
00:58:23any of you.
00:58:32All this
00:58:33dirty work
00:58:33must have
00:58:34done you
00:58:34in.
00:58:35a beggar
00:58:36like him.
00:58:38You lowly
00:58:39peasants.
00:58:40None of
00:58:40you deserve
00:58:41to talk
00:58:41to us.
00:58:42Get out
00:58:43or we'll
00:58:44throw you
00:58:44out with
00:58:45force.
00:58:47Get out
00:58:48or we'll
00:58:48throw you
00:58:49out with
00:58:49force.
00:58:50It is
00:58:50you who
00:58:50ought to
00:58:51be thrown
00:58:51out.
00:58:57Hmm.
00:58:57What a
00:58:58pretty
00:58:58money
00:58:59sucking
00:59:00leech.
00:59:03I would
00:59:03tell her.
00:59:04I'm disgusted
00:59:05by the
00:59:06implication.
00:59:08Despite her
00:59:09features,
00:59:10a maid that
00:59:11cleans chamber
00:59:12parts all day
00:59:13is more fit to
00:59:13marry a stable
00:59:14boy.
00:59:15Say that
00:59:15again and I'll
00:59:16make you pay.
00:59:17Oh no.
00:59:19What are you
00:59:20going to do?
00:59:21Hit me?
00:59:23Well, come on
00:59:24then.
00:59:25Have at it.
00:59:26Look.
00:59:29Well, I do say I think
00:59:32this was the first
00:59:32time I heard someone
00:59:33ask for it, but I think
00:59:36we all heard him
00:59:37clearly enough.
00:59:38you feel it.
00:59:41You asked for it.
00:59:43I obliged.
00:59:48Lord Benjamin,
00:59:50the Duke has
00:59:51arrived.
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
00:59:58noble and you
00:59:58will not offend
01:00:00me again.
01:00:00Why should I care?
01:00:02I'm sure Lord
01:00:02Benjamin would
01:00:03understand.
01:00:03Do not speak
01:00:05my father's name.
01:00:06You're dead.
01:00:07My father will see
01:00:08to it when he
01:00:08arrives.
01:00:09On your knees.
01:00:11And I demand you
01:00:12apologize to John
01:00:13now.
01:00:14And your filthy
01:00:15parents too.
01:00:16Down!
01:00:17Who do you think
01:00:17you are barking
01:00:18orders at 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 to
01:00:23speak 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
01:00:30whore of a sister?
01:00:31I will not let you
01:00:33embarrass me again.
01:00:35We'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
01:00:49tears to their
01:00:50teary reunion.
01:00:51Guards!
01:00:55Execute 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
01:01:03I think if that's
01:01:04the case
01:01:05we ought to
01:01:05keep him alive.
01:01:07He's already
01:01:07a useless beggar.
01:01:09We ought to
01:01:10break his 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!
01:01:18Right away!
01:01:18Yes please!
01:01:20Pardon us!
01:01:20Arthur!
01:01:21Please!
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!
01:01:28It'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 matter.
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
01:01:45in 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
01:01:53your poor behavior
01:01:54in order 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
01:02:00right to withhold.
01:02:02A pity
01:02:02to have a son
01:02:04like him.
01:02:05Imagine spending
01:02:06ten years to
01:02:07find your son
01:02:08just to have him
01:02:08turn out like
01:02:09this.
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
01:02:14the future.
01:02:16Oh yes,
01:02:17happy.
01:02:18Very happy I
01:02:19imagine with your
01:02:20legs mingled
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 him!
01:02:30No, no,
01:02:31please no.
01:02:33Presenting the
01:02:34Honorable Lord
01:02:35Benjamin, Baron
01:02:36of Stamford.
01:02:39Oh, 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
01:02:53say when he
01:02:53hears about this.
01:02:55I reckon you'll
01:02:55all be beaten to
01:02:56death 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 honor
01:03:06for him to lay
01:03:06eyes on the
01:03:07gentlemen before
01:03:08he crushes them
01:03:09like the rats
01:03:10they are.
01:03:11Oh, no.
01:03:13I can't wait.
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,
01:03:23mother, and once
01:03:24I tell him what
01:03:25you've done to
01:03:25me and my dear
01:03:27John, he'll have
01:03:28you all beheaded.
01:03:30No.
01:03:31Oh, how lucky
01:03:32it is to be so
01:03:33simple-minded.
01:03:35You, half-dead
01:03:37caudges, and you,
01:03:39harlot.
01:03:40Ha.
01:03:41Any last words?
01:03:43No teary goodbyes?
01:03:46Or do you wish to
01:03:47die with him?
01:03:48John, please.
01:03:50Arthur was just
01:03:51impulsive.
01:03:51Please put in a
01:03:52good word for him.
01:03:53Get your dirty
01:03:54hands off of me.
01:03:55You scoundrel!
01:03:56I'll do it again.
01:04:02You scoundrel!
01:04:03I'll do it again.
01:04:06John!
01:04:07My darling boy!
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 strife
01:04:18and bloodshed.
01:04:20I would have let
01:04:20you go.
01:04:21As awful as your
01:04:22behavior was to me,
01:04:23but you insulted
01:04:24my virtuous sister,
01:04:25and raised your
01:04:26hand to my
01:04:26saintly mother and
01:04:27father.
01:04:28Your actions beg
01:04:29for punishment,
01:04:30and I am happy
01:04:31to see to it.
01:04:34Let it be known,
01:04:35I plan to exile
01:04:36the Moore family
01:04:37from the good town
01:04:37of Stamford.
01:04:38you've gone mad.
01:04:43Oh, you've gone mad.
01:04:44Truly mad.
01:04:46Lady Adela, have
01:04:47your men restrain him
01:04:48for the safety of
01:04:49your guests,
01:04:50and have him flogged
01:04:51in the dungeon.
01:04:52No!
01:04:53Ah!
01:04:54Ah!
01:04:55What's this again
01:04:56about the dungeons?
01:04:57Lord Benjamin,
01:05:01you've finally come.
01:05:02My lord, we've been
01:05:03troubled so by these
01:05:04lowly peasants.
01:05:06Father, it's them.
01:05:07I say we take them
01:05:08to the dungeons.
01:05:13This is the Duke's
01:05:15banquet, Adela.
01:05:16I will not tolerate
01:05:17your antics.
01:05:19Pardon me, father.
01:05:20It seems I've been
01:05:21lax, for these lowly,
01:05:23dirty servants have
01:05:24snuck in.
01:05:25Lowly, dirty servants?
01:05:30Yes, father.
01:05:32The mister and
01:05:33missus are servants,
01:05:34and so is the daughter.
01:05:35And he's a beggar.
01:05:37A vile, disgusting man.
01:05:40Perhaps we could send
01:05:41them away with some scraps
01:05:42from the kitchens.
01:05:43I dare say it'd be better
01:05:44than anything they've
01:05:45ever tasted.
01:05:46Oh, father,
01:05:47please allow me to see it.
01:05:48I'll have their bones
01:05:49broken and left out
01:05:50for the dogs for
01:05:51disturbing the Duke's
01:05:52banquet.
01:05:54Silence!
01:05:56But, Lord Benjamin,
01:05:57why?
01:05:59Duke of Mercia,
01:06:01Arthur.
01:06:02Your grace,
01:06:03at your service.
01:06:06Failed in his grace,
01:06:07the Duke, Arthur.
01:06:16What?
01:06:19That's him?
01:06:20He's Duke Arthur?
01:06:22That's him?
01:06:26He's Duke Arthur?
01:06:29Lord Benjamin,
01:06:31I was promised 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.
01:06:39What did the parents say?
01:06:40Is it Duke Arthur
01:06:41that he just called you?
01:06:42Huh?
01:06:43What?
01:06:43Sir?
01:06:45Sir?
01:06:46Madam?
01:06:47Please?
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?
01:06:58I'm the Duke.
01:07:00My book?
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 noble
01:07:11than anyone.
01:07:13Lord 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.
01:07:21He 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, girl!
01:07:42And maybe he'll forgive you.
01:07:45No!
01:07:46You said that the Duke
01:07:47was going to give John a title.
01:07:49Why would John
01:07:50call off the engagement
01:07:50to his sister?
01:07:52Ah!
01:07:53Maybe this will get through
01:07:55your thick skull.
01:07:56He 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!
01:08:13It can't be!
01:08:14It can't be the Duke!
01:08:15It's simply the enemy!
01:08:20Your Grace,
01:08:21I must apologize.
01:08:22That's enough!
01:08:24Your family has
01:08:25played 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 to
01:08:35scoff at.
01:08:36Mother,
01:08:36my brother-in-law,
01:08:38a Duke,
01:08:39will be even
01:08:40richer.
01:08:43My brother-in-law,
01:08:44a Duke,
01:08:45will be even
01:08:46richer.
01:08:46will be set for life.
01:08:49Oh,
01:08:49married to the
01:08:50sister of the Duke.
01:08:51Oh,
01:08:51goodness!
01:08:52That must be why
01:08:53you want to give me
01:08:54a noble title,
01:08:55so I can marry
01:08:56Anna.
01:08:57Anna,
01:08:58can you believe it?
01:08:59Your brother,
01:09:00a 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 your brother's
01:09:09a Duke now.
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
01:09:22wet his 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
01:09:28doesn'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
01:09:34temperaments.
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,
01:09:44I 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 has spoken,
01:09:53John.
01:09:53It seems my sister
01:09:55disdains
01:09:55your vile habits.
01:09:57Anna,
01:09:58this is all my fault.
01:10:00We grew up together,
01:10:01didn't we?
01:10:02I 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
01:10:17now,
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
01:10:25what you've done
01:10:26to my mother
01:10:26and father.
01:10:27My brother's title
01:10:28has nothing
01:10:29to do with you.
01:10:30I wish for you
01:10:31to be gone
01:10:32and never come back.
01:10:34Anna,
01:10:35forgive 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,
01:11:03Madam,
01:11:04please ask Arthur
01:11:05to show us mercy.
01:11:07I was betrothed to 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.
01:11:42How dare you
01:11:43ask for compassion?
01:11:47How 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 them
01:11:57at 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
01:12:08to the ground
01:12:09and spit
01:12:10on their bodies.
01:12:11You called off
01:12:12my sister's engagement
01:12:13for the first
01:12:13noble lady you saw.
01:12:15You do not
01:12:16deserve my 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!
01:12:33Lord 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?
01:12:53Yes, sir?
01:12:58Much better.
01:12:59Father,
01:13:02mother,
01:13:04Anna,
01:13:05let us enjoy
01:13:06this banquet in peace.
01:13:08Arthur,
01:13:09this banquet
01:13:11is lovely,
01:13:13thank you.
01:13:14But nothing
01:13:15is better
01:13:16than us
01:13:16being reunited
01:13:17as a family.
01:13:19And together
01:13:20we'll be
01:13:21forever.
01:13:22Forever.
01:13:22God bless you.
