The Lost Son Returns As The Duke - Full
Transcript
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 seen.
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!
00:01:18I'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.
00:01:42May 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.
00:02:14Okay.
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.

00:05:51where are you
00:06:16I have a feeling I know why you're here.
00:06:30Your Majesty, nothing escapes you.
00:06:34Nothing does escape me, which 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 fought enough battles for me and did a great service to the Kingdom of Mercia.
00:07:03This is why I gave you the title of Duke.
00:07:08Go back to Stamford.
00:07:10Find your family.
00:07:11They would be so proud to see the man you've become.
00:07:16And while you're at it, build me that castle, eh?
00:07:22I won't let you down, sir.
00:07:24I miss you.
00:07:34Robert, my sweet nephew, here.
00:07:37All 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.
00:08:02Robert, 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, so 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.
00:08:27It'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.
00:08:49But 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.
00:08:59The 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 him like a son.
00:09:28A king treats him 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.
00:11:45Don'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?
00:12:17I just want to make sure he's my Arthur.
00:12:27Did someone call my name just now?
00:12:40Your Grace, it's probably just the wind playing tricks.
00:12:43No one here would dare to speak your name so boldly.
00:12:46What 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.
00:13:01No, I swear that was my son.
00:13:03That was Arthur.
00:13:04You have truly gone mad.
00:13:07That 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.
00:13:18I swear that...
00:13:21Do 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.
00:13:47Robert!
00:13:48Robert!
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.
00:14:01I 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.
00:14:15My son has risen up through the ranks, while yours only grows poorer and poorer.
00:14:23It's pathetic, really.
00:14:25You 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!
00:14:39You cheat!
00:14:40Give me back my coin!
00:14:42Don't touch me with your filthy hands!
00:14:46In this, say goodbye to your son.
00:14:49No!
00:14:50No!
00:14:51No!
00:14:52No!
00:14:53No!
00:14:54No!
00:14:55No!
00:14:56No!
00:14:57No!
00:14:58Mother!
00:14:59Mother, no!
00:15:00I don't feel excited!
00:15:02I don't really expect her to be here.
00:15:04Mother, no!
00:15:05No!
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.
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.
00:15:23Now, if you truly believe the Duke might be our Arthur,
00:15:27I'll see what I can do.
00:15:32Arthur, my brother, could it really be you?
00:15:47Your grace, my lord.
00:16:02Oh, 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.
00:16:28Clean yourself up.
00:16:28Why does she seem so familiar?
00:16:35The scene is that I have someone the Duke might want.
00:16:41How could Robert do this to you?
00:16:45He'd beat you.
00:16:48You're his aunt for crying out loud.
00:16:50Oh, Carl.
00:16:51You know, your family has always been cruel to us.
00:16:55It's only going to get worse now that Robert is butler to 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 a 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?
00:17:28Yeah?
00:17:29What did the Duke say?
00:17:30Did he...
00:17:32Mother?
00:17:35What?
00:17:36I don't think the Duke is our Arthur.
00:17:40No.
00:17:41He does resemble him, yes, but he didn't recognize the necklace.
00:17:46No.
00:17:49I'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.
00:18:06Oh.
00:18:06Oh, your grace.
00:18:13I 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.
00:18:40She must have forgot something.
00:18:43Anna?
00:18:46Yeah.
00:18:50Ah.
00:18:52What are you all doing here?
00:18:54Especially 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, so I can offer you a fresh loaf.
00:19:07You call this food?
00:19:09The Baron's dogs wouldn't eat this.
00:19:17But fortune favors the undeserving.
00:19:20Now you'll be able to buy some real food.
00:19:24What do you mean, Laura?
00:19:26Tell them, Robert.
00:19:27It 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.
00:19:45No.
00:19:45To bolster our defenses.
00:19:47The order came directly from the Duke himself.
00:19:50No.
00:19:50But you will be well compensated for the trouble.
00:19:55What?
00:19:56Just sign here and you'll receive 20 gold pieces.
00:20:00As 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?
00:20:09No, this is our family home.
00:20:12No.
00:20:12If 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 coin.
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.
00:20:30You 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.
00:20:38You don't get a say.
00:20:40The order comes from above.
00:20:41Enough of this insolence.
00:20:43Leave my house at once.
00:20:44Leave my house.
00:20:44Carl.
00:20:50Carl, 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.
00:21:00So be it.
00:21:00This place really does feel so familiar.
00:21:11What?
00:21:12What 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?
00:21:26No man as useless as him deserves to be my brother.
00:21:28Oh, ow, you're a monster.
00:21:33Sign it now.
00:21:34No.

00:29:26Just wait. The two of you will join him soon. Let's go, Father.
00:29:30Serves you right, brother.
00:29:32I don't know.
00:29:42What happened here?
00:29:44Lord Benjamin, it was all your butlers doing.
00:29:48And your cousin, Lady Edith.
00:29:50They even took my son in the dungeon!
00:29:52Your... your son?
00:29:56Tall and with dark hair?
00:29:58We need to go! Now!
00:30:04God, Carl, what are we gonna do? Because Arthur's gone!
00:30:10Ann. Ann is engaged to John Moore. The Moors can help.
00:30:14They're engaged, yes, but that was years ago. John Moore's a rich man now.
00:30:18Are you sure we...
00:30:19We have to try, Carl, please.
00:30:20You're right.
00:30:22We have to try. We have to try.
00:30:24We have to find our son.
00:30:26What happened to that fire? That rage? Scared of the consequences now, runt?
00:30:34Consequences? For giving you what you deserve?
00:30:38Watch your mouth. Your family is done for and you're still talking back.
00:30:50No, my lady. It's your family that's done for.
00:30:54I've made up my mind. I will not spare you.
00:30:58Me? Needing sparing from you? You've gone mad.
00:31:08It seems like you've gotten it in your head that you could do something to us.
00:31:12Let me remind you of your place.
00:31:24You insolent brat! What are you doing?
00:31:32Reminding you of your place.
00:31:37Stop it or I'll have you killed!
00:31:39You have me killed. You've got the wrong man.
00:31:54Consider 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!
00:32:07Oh!
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!
00:32:15Flog him!
00:32:18Hold 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!
00:32:44Cousin 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.
00:33:02That's right, Benjamin.
00:33:03What happened again?
00:33:04We had gone to the less fortunate Wellesley's to evit them, but he tried to stop us.
00:33:09So, Edith had him brought here to teach him a lesson, but it looks like he hasn't learned anything.
00:33:15Oh, oh, sir, you don't know the half of it.
00:33:18He hit us and ordered us to kneel to him.
00:33:21He even said that you were lowlier than he.
00:33:24You must punish him accordingly.
00:33:27As I was saying, the consequences of your actions.
00:33:31Oh!
00:33:32You fool!
00:33:33There will be consequences, all right.
00:33:34For you!
00:33:35What for, sir?
00:33:36Have I done something wrong, sir?
00:33:37I don't...
00:33:38Cousin, you misunderstand!
00:33:39There is no misunderstanding.
00:33:40Have you lost your mind?
00:33:41Do you know who this man is?
00:33:42Do you know who this man is?
00:33:43Do you know who this man is?
00:33:44He's nothing but a beggar, the son of peasants!
00:33:48Get out of my sight, you pathetic woman.
00:33:55Duke of Mercia, your grace, pardon my tardiness.
00:34:00Duke?
00:34:01Duke?
00:34:02What do you mean, Duke?
00:34:03Sir, you must be mistaken.
00:34:04Rightly so.
00:34:05He's a peasant, a beggar, how could he be the Duke?
00:34:07He's nothing but a beggar, the son of peasants.
00:34:09Get out of my sight, you pathetic woman.
00:34:12Duke of Mercia, your grace, pardon my tardiness.
00:34:16Duke?
00:34:17What do you mean, Duke?
00:34:19Duke?
00:34:20Duke?
00:34:21What do you mean, Duke?
00:34:22Sir, you must be mistaken.
00:34:24Rightly so.
00:34:25He's a peasant, a beggar, how could he be the Duke?
00:34:32Don't question me.
00:34:34No.
00:34:35No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:34:37This is possible.
00:34:38How can you say you're the Duke?
00:34:42Shut it, Wellesley.
00:34:43You have no right to speak.
00:34:46That lowlife's the Duke?
00:34:47Carl's son is the Duke?
00:34:50Oh no.
00:34:51No.
00:34:52George, what have we done?
00:35:01Lord Venture, it seems that you've neglected your duties as baron.
00:35:07Your people have shown me nothing but disdain.
00:35:10They take from the poor, torture your innocent, pillage and kill.
00:35:15Have you no order in Stanford?
00:35:18I'll have them punished for their wrongdoings.
00:35:20Their wrongdoings?
00:35:22I imagine then it was you who have allowed them to do this.
00:35:26And it is you who must be punished.
00:35:29Mercy, your grace.
00:35:32I'll have them flogged, exiled, punished to the extent of the law.
00:35:36Please, your grace, spare us.
00:35:39Cousin.
00:35:43It's my fault.
00:35:44See, your grace, I've been a fool.
00:35:48Punish me, flog me as you will.
00:35:51But we live.
00:35:53We are from the same family, Duke Arthur.
00:35:57I don't want to die.
00:35:58Young Arthur, my son had just become a butler.
00:36:03He's only just delivered us from the clutches of poverty.
00:36:07Please, we adore him so.
00:36:09You must kill him or exile him.
00:36:13Please, I beg you, as your uncle, as your father's own brother.
00:36:18Oh, 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?
00:36:36Have you forgotten what you've done to my parents?
00:36:39Your own brother?
00:36:42And cousin Robert?
00:36:43What 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.
00:36:52Shameless.
00:36:54And 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.
00:37:11I will see to them personally.
00:37:15Oh, please.
00:37:16Oh, sir.
00:37:17Please.
00:37:19Robert deceived me.
00:37:20It's all his fault.
00:37:22Please, Duke Arthur.
00:37:23Spare me.
00:37:25I'll do anything for you.
00:37:27Egypt.
00:37:28What 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 off our engagement.
00:37:37From this moment onward, I'll have nothing to do with you.
00:37:41I beg of you, oh great and honorable Duke.
00:37:43Forgive me.
00:37:45Don't you want to see what I have to offer?
00:37:49Save it, my sloth.
00:37:51Lord Benjamin.
00:37:53Make sure these vermin never cross my path again.
00:37:55They make me sick.
00:37:58They make me sick.
00:38:03Guards!
00:38:04Lock them up.
00:38:05Cousin, 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!
00:38:18Please!
00:38:19No!
00:38:20No!
00:38:25In good news, Benjamin, I found my parents.
00:38:28I thought it's 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.
00:38:38Life has been cruel to them.
00:38:40And I wish for them to live happily.
00:38:43Oh!
00:38:44And my sister, too.
00:38:45Anna.
00:38:46I wanted to do something special for her, as well.
00:38:48Did you just say Anna?
00:38:51It's in the maid, Anna.
00:38:53Right. Anna.
00:38:55She works here, doesn't she?
00:38:58Seems 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. Anna. She works here, doesn't she? Bring me to her.
00:39:22No, Your Grace. I...
00:39:24What?
00:39:25I thought... I thought that you fancied her, so I...
00:39:28What have you done? Bring me to her right now!
00:39:31You have fine features for a scullery maid. I can see why he likes you.
00:39:50Mr. Crowley, did you need something?
00:39:53Yes, pet. You'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. I have no interest in you.
00:40:08I wouldn't dare.
00:40:09Put this on.
00:40:12Put this on.
00:40:19Perfect.
00:40:20I can see why he chose you in particular.
00:40:24Mr. Crowley, what's all this about?
00:40:26The Baron has ordered you to meet another client. A big man.
00:40:31You are to be his mistress. To satisfy his physical needs, of course. An honor for a common whore like you.
00:40:40No, I refuse.
00:40:41You don't have a choice.
00:40:45Baron's orders.
00:40:49Do you even know who you are serving? It is the Duke. The one you poured tea on.
00:40:55What? The Duke?
00:40:56Aw, dumb already, are you? Still think you can say no, whore?
00:41:01Please, I don't want to. No.
00:41:07It's a good opportunity, dammit.
00:41:10Mr. Crowley, I'm betrothed. I don't want to be another man's mistress.
00:41:17Hadn't your father just fallen ill? Weren'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. Not for anything.
00:41:56I 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!
00:42:18Oh my God, please!
00:42:20Hands off!
00:42:22Oh no!
00:42:22You don't get to stay now!
00:42:24Oh my God, please!
00:42:26Hands off the work!
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?
00:42:47Sir, this bitch refused your orders.
00:42:51It is my right as house steward to teach her a lesson.
00:42:57Apologize to her.
00:42:59Or I'll have you fired.
00:43:02Apologize, sir, but she's a lowly scullery maid.
00:43:05She was out of line.
00:43:07A 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?
00:43:24Are 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!
00:43:37Where have you been all these years?
00:43:38You missed you terribly.
00:43:41Here, 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.
00:43:57Sir, I failed to discipline them.
00:44:00But yes.
00:44:02Sir, Duke.
00:44:04I was wrong.
00:44:05I would have never treated her like that had I known that she was your sister.
00:44:12Yet 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.
00:44:30God!
00:44:32Throw him into the dungeon.
00:44:33No!
00:44:33No, please!
00:44:34Have him over me.
00:44:35No, sir!
00:44:36No!
00:44:37No!
00:44:38No!
00:44:40Anna, tell me truly.
00:44:43Are you all right?
00:44:44Yes, 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 the years have been quite hard on them.
00:45:03But it's all worth it.
00:45:05Because you're back.
00:45:06Anna, stay here.
00:45:08I'll bring them here.
00:45:10Okay?
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.
00:45:20Yes, John and I are engaged, but...
00:45:24He's your fiancé, Anna.
00:45:26So I'll love him like a brother.
00:45:28Lord Benjamin, arrange a feast for tonight.
00:45:30I want to show our parents high society.
00:45:32And invite John Moore.
00:45:36I'll speak to the king.
00:45:37See if he can grant him a noble title.
00:45:42As you wish, Duke Arthur.
00:45:51He's at the Moors' home.
00:45:53Fine place for a merchant family, but...
00:45:55They'll be able to afford better very soon.
00:46:01Well, we're here.
00:46:02The home of our supposed son-in-law.
00:46:05Yeah.
00:46:13You tottering fool.
00:46:15No!
00:46:16Why have you come back?
00:46:21John, this is your fiancé's father.
00:46:24You 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.
00:46:34I'm sorry.
00:46:36Mr. Moore.
00:46:37Please.
00:46:38Let'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.
00:46:48You've been betrothed to Anna for years.
00:46:52Your 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 Kaja and take him out of here.
00:47:27I'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.
00:47:45It'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?
00:47:57To 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.
00:48:06Now, did I hear you say you wanted to have my father beaten?
00:48:11So what if I did?
00:48:13What's a rotten like you going to do about it anyway?
00:48:17Cry?
00:48:18Piss your pants?
00:48:19Say that again.
00:48:20If you think I'm going to take it easy on you because you're engaged to my sister,
00:48:31then 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?
00:48:54Oh, it's just a peasant.
00:49:04John, 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.
00:49:23No 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 true 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.
00:50:18Adela.
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.
00:50:27You 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.
00:50:37My 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?
00:51:02I would never.
00:51:05His money is as vile as his word.
00:51:09No matter.
00:51:11A 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.
00:51:29We 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.
00:51:43Amen.
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.
00:51:59John Moore,
00:52:02are unfit for my sister.
00:52:05My word.
00:52:07Unfit.
00:52:08For you.
00:52:10Let's see.
00:52:11Servant, servant, beggar.
00:52:14Oh, you're too funny.
00:52:16Take this as a friendly warning, John.
00:52:19Lest you regret your decision later.
00:52:20I 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.
00:52:32Come now.
00:52:33We have a banquet to attend.
00:52:34Oh, that'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, Arthur.
00:52:49I wish we had had a better reception for you.
00:52:53Oh, mother.
00:52:54Don't say that, please.
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.
00:53:03Please, I hope you haven't spent any coin on us, Arthur.
00:53:08What have you arranged?
00:53:09Just something small at the Baron's Manor.
00:53:11Don't worry, mother.
00:53:13It's been paid for.
00:53:14At the Baron's Manor?
00:53:15Arthur, haven't you heard the duke will be there?
00:53:19We can't possibly impose.
00:53:21It's...
00:53:22Like I said, mother,
00:53:24don't worry.
00:53:25You'll see.
00:53:27Oh.
00:53:33Lady Adela,
00:53:38this is all very splendid.
00:53:41You must introduce us to the duke when he arrives.
00:53:44Oh, Mrs. Moore, of 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, the duke would love to meet you.
00:53:56I cannot believe it.
00:53:58A noble title.
00:54:00Lady Adela,
00:54:00you are simply full of surprises.
00:54:02You are the best match for John,
00:54:05no doubt about it.
00:54:07I mean to ask, Adela,
00:54:08why would someone like the duke
00:54:10understand from the first place?
00:54:12Why, Stamford 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 when he was a child.
00:54:24Even this banquet, I hear, is all for them.
00:54:27Must be good, noble people
00:54:29to rear such a fine man like the duke.
00:54:31We must make a good impression.
00:54:34Mm-hmm.
00:54:37How did those peasants get in?
00:54:55This banquet, I've arranged it all for you.
00:55:05I'll introduce you to everyone shortly.
00:55:08Arthur, don't just...
00:55:10What do you mean for us?
00:55:12Mother, I'm serious.
00:55:15This is all for you.
00:55:17But how could you have arranged all this?
00:55:20How much money did you spend?
00:55:22Money has nothing to do with it, father.
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, I thought you told them to get lost.
00:55:38Why are they back?
00:55:43John, I thought you told them to get lost.
00:55:46Why are they back?
00:55:47Damn lowlives.
00:55:48They must have tailed us in.
00:55:51I knew those ill-bred dogs would go away that easily.
00:55:54Scoundrels, all.
00:55:56Mrs. Moore, rest easy.
00:56:00This banquet is held on the duke's orders,
00:56:03and father asked me to see that our guests enjoy themselves.
00:56:07I have every authority to throw them out.
00:56:13Come.
00:56:13Who let you in?
00:56:27Who let you in?
00:56:29You must be lost, peasant.
00:56:31This is the duke's banquet,
00:56:33not the gruel kitchen.
00:56:35I suggest you turn around immediately.
00:56:37And I suggest you shut your mouth.
00:56:40This is my manor.
00:56:41My father is hosting it
00:56:43under direct orders of the duke.
00:56:46You have no place to speak here.
00:56:49And you?
00:56:51You must be the bitch that John was engaged to.
00:56:54I'll have you know,
00:56:56John is going to be a noble.
00:56:59You'll have no way into his home.
00:57:01Unless you'd like to be our maid once we marry.
00:57:06Lowborn as I may be,
00:57:07I'm still more noble than a harlot like you.
00:57:10You wench.
00:57:11I will not let you talk to Lady Adela like this.
00:57:15Apologize right now.
00:57:17I owe her nothing of the sort.
00:57:19She is the one who's courting an engaged man.
00:57:21I told your parents,
00:57:24and your disgusting beggar of a brother,
00:57:26I called off the engagement.
00:57:29You're not good enough for me.
00:57:31You're wrong.
00:57:32It's you who isn't good enough for me.
00:57:34I would never marry a man with such a fickle heart
00:57:37who would abandon his fiancée just to chase after some harlot's coin.
00:57:41You dirty bitch.
00:57:46That's what you get for talking to my son like that.
00:57:49How dare you raise your hands to my daughter?
00:57:55How dare she insult my son?
00:57:58You're right, mother.
00:57:59We ought to slap some sense into them.
00:58:02Anna, look at yourself.
00:58:03You're nothing compared to Lady Adela.
00:58:06It's no wonder I chose her.
00:58:09Lady Adela is Lord Benjamin's daughter.
00:58:13What do you have that Lady Adela doesn't?
00:58:16Besides this useless beggar of a brother.
00:58:21Do not insult my brother.
00:58:22He is more noble than any of you.
00:58:24All this dirty work must have done you in.
00:58:35A beggar like him.
00:58:38You lowly peasants.
00:58:40None of you deserve to talk to us.
00:58:42Get out or we'll throw you out with force.
00:58:47Get out or we'll throw you out with force.
00:58:50It is you who ought to be thrown out.
00:58:54Hmm, what a pretty money-sucking leech.
00:59:02I would tell her I am disgusted by the implication.
00:59:08Despite her features,
00:59:10a maid that cleans chamber parts all day
00:59:12is more fit to marry a stable boy.
00:59:15Say that again and I'll make you pay.
00:59:18Oh no.
00:59:19What are you going to do?
00:59:21Hit me?
00:59:22Well, come on then.
00:59:25Have at it.
00:59:29Well,
00:59:30I do say I think this was the first time
00:59:32I heard someone ask for it.
00:59:34But,
00:59:35I think we all heard him clearly enough.
00:59:39You feel it.
00:59:41You actually asked-
00:59:41You asked for it.
00:59:43I obliged.
00:59:44Lord 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 offend me again.
01:00:00Why should I care?
01:00:02I'm sure Lord Benjamin would understand.
01:00:04Do not speak my father's name.
01:00:06You're dead.
01:00:07My father will see to it when he arrives.
01:00:09On your knees.
01:00:11And I demand you apologize to John now.
01:00:14And your filthy parents too.
01:00:16Down!
01:00:17Who do you think you are barking orders at me?
01:00:19Don't think you're so high and mighty
01:00:20just because you followed us in.
01:00:22You've no right to speak to my son
01:00:24or Lady Adela like this.
01:00:26Don't you know how much I suffered
01:00:28being betrothed to your dirty whore of his sister.
01:00:31I will not let you embarrass me again.
01:00:36We've been gracious enough letting the matter go
01:00:39yet you shameless rats won't stop bothering us.
01:00:43Away!
01:00:43Off with you!
01:00:44Oh Mrs. Moore.
01:00:45I have a much better idea.
01:00:48Let's add a few tears to their teary reunion.
01:00:51Guards!
01:00:55Execute him!
01:00:56No!
01:00:57I want to watch as they lose their precious son.
01:01:01Again.
01:01:02Oh Lady Adela I think if that's the case
01:01:05we ought to keep him alive.
01:01:07He's already a useless beggar.
01:01:09We ought to break his legs and keep him that way.
01:01:12Lisa!
01:01:13Lady Moore!
01:01:14Please!
01:01:15I apologize.
01:01:17I'll have Arthur repent.
01:01:18Right away!
01:01:18Yes please.
01:01:20Pardon us.
01:01:20Arthur.
01:01:21Please I beg of you apologize.
01:01:24Please.
01:01:24You've enough wit to be scared, but it's too late.
01:01:28It's not my fault you've been grating on my nerves.
01:01:31I've nothing left for pity.
01:01:33Seems like you have quite a loud bark with no bite now.
01:01:36What did you just say to me?
01:01:41Mother.
01:01:42Father.
01:01:43I already told you.
01:01:44This banquet is for you.
01:01:46In honor of us all being together again.
01:01:48You have every right to enjoy yourself.
01:01:51And my sister was correct.
01:01:52You ought to apologize for your poor behavior.
01:01:54And I ought to have you thrown out.
01:01:56Soon, you'll be kneeling before us, begging for the forgiveness we have every right to withhold.
01:02:02A pity to have a son like him.
01:02:05Imagine spending ten years to find your son, just to have him turn out like this.
01:02:10The real pity is what will be happening to you soon.
01:02:13I think I'll be quite happy in the future.
01:02:14Oh, yes.
01:02:17Happy.
01:02:18Very happy, I imagine, with your legs mangled, crawling on the ground.
01:02:23Oh, and your poor parents.
01:02:25I'm sure they'll be very joyous over such a sight.
01:02:29Seize them!
01:02:30No, no.
01:02:31Please, no.
01:02:33Presenting the Honorable Lord Benjamin, Baron of Stamford.
01:02:38Oh, you're in for it now.
01:02:41Lord Benjamin is the most powerful man in Stamford.
01:02:44And he's backed by the Duke, whose authority is second only to the King.
01:02:49You poor, poor souls.
01:02:51We'll see what the Duke has to say when he hears about this.
01:02:55I reckon you'll all be beaten to death in the dungeons.
01:02:57Don't waste your breath, Madam.
01:02:59A commoner like him can't even fathom the great power the Duke has.
01:03:03Of course, Lady Adela.
01:03:05It'd be an honor for him to lay eyes on the gentlemen,
01:03:08before he crushes them like the rats they are.
01:03:11No, I can't wait.
01:03:15How unfortunate it had to come to this.
01:03:17Yes, how unfortunate it is for you.
01:03:21Lord Benjamin is my father,
01:03:23and once I tell him what you've done to me and my dear John,
01:03:28he'll have you all beheaded.
01:03:30No.
01:03:30Oh, how lucky it is to be so simple-minded.
01:03:35You, half-dead cauders.
01:03:38And you, harlot.
01:03:40Huh.
01:03:41Any last words?
01:03:43No teary goodbyes?
01:03:46Or do you wish to die with him?
01:03:48John, please.
01:03:50Arthur was just impulsive.
01:03:51Please put in a good word for him.
01:03:53Get your dirty hands 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 again,
01:04:11and your family will pay.
01:04:13Let it be known,
01:04:14this night was meant to be a joyous one,
01:04:16and I did not wish to taint it
01:04:17with strife and bloodshed.
01:04:20I would have let you go,
01:04:21as awful as your behavior was to me,
01:04:23but you insulted my virtuous sister
01:04:25and raised your hand to my saintly mother and father.
01:04:28Your actions beg for punishment,
01:04:30and I am happy to see to it.
01:04:34Let it be known,
01:04:35I plan to exile the Moore family
01:04:37from the good town of Stamford.
01:04:42Oh, you've gone mad.
01:04:44Truly mad.
01:04:46Lady Adela,
01:04:47have your men restrain him
01:04:48for the safety of your guests,
01:04:50and have him flogged in the dungeon.
01:04:55What's this again about the dungeons?
01:05:00Lord Benjamin,
01:05:01you've finally come.
01:05:02My lord,
01:05:03we've been troubled so
01:05:04by these lowly peasants.
01:05:06Father, it's them.
01:05:07I say we take them to the dungeons.
01:05:13This is the Duke's Banquetage.
01:05:15I will not tolerate your antics.
01:05:19Pardon me, father.
01:05:20It seems I've been lax,
01:05:22for these lowly, dirty servants have snuck in.
01:05:25Lowly, dirty servants?
01:05:30Yes, father.
01:05:31The Mr. and Mrs. are servants,
01:05:33and so is the daughter.
01:05:35And he's a beggar.
01:05:37A vile, disgusting man.
01:05:40Perhaps we could send them away
01:05:41with some scraps from the kitchens.
01:05:43I dare say they'd be better
01:05:44than anything they've ever tasted.
01:05:46Oh, father,
01:05:46please allow me to see it.
01:05:48I'll have their bones broken
01:05:50and left out for the dogs
01:05:51for disturbing the Duke's banquet.
01:05:54Ah!
01:05:54Silence!
01:05:55But, Lord Benjamin, why?
01:05:59Duke of Mercia, Arthur.
01:06:02Your Grace,
01:06:03at your service.
01:06:06Hailed in His Grace,
01:06:07the Duke, Arthur.
01:06:08What?
01:06:19That's him.
01:06:20He's Duke Arthur.
01:06:24That'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, Your Grace.
01:06:37My boy.
01:06:38What do the parents say?
01:06:40Is it Duke Arthur
01:06:41that he just called you?
01:06:42Huh?
01:06:43What?
01:06:44Sir.
01:06:46Madam.
01:06:48Please.
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 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 noble than anyone.
01:07:13Lord Benjamin,
01:07:14are you certain he's the Duke?
01:07:17Father,
01:07:18you said the Duke was 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?
01:07:28You ought to be ashamed.
01:07:31How dare you do this to his grace, Duke Arthur?
01:07:34No.
01:07:35It can't be.
01:07:36Father, tell 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 was going to give John a title.
01:07:49Why would John call off the engagement to his sister?
01:07:51Father.
01:07:52Ah!
01:07:53Maybe this will get through your thick skull.
01:07:57He is the Duke.
01:07:58The one and only.
01:08:00Guards,
01:08:01take her away until she's learned her lesson.
01:08:07Guards,
01:08:08take her away until she's learned her lesson.
01:08:11No!
01:08:12Father!
01:08:13No, he can't be!
01:08:14He can't be the Duke!
01:08:15He's in the game!
01:08:20Your Grace,
01:08:21I must apologize.
01:08:22That's enough.
01:08:24Your family has played your hand for it.
01:08:26Duke Arthur, sir.
01:08:28Why, certainly.
01:08:30My son is still engaged to the Wellesley's daughter.
01:08:33Our connection is nothing to scoff at.
01:08:36Mother,
01:08:36my brother-in-law,
01:08:38a Duke,
01:08:39will be even richer.
01:08:41My brother-in-law,
01:08:44a Duke,
01:08:45will be even richer.
01:08:46Will be set for life.
01:08:49Oh,
01:08:49married to the sister of the Duke.
01:08:51Oh, goodness.
01:08:52That must be why you want to give me a noble title.
01:08:55So I can marry Anna.
01:08:57Anna.
01:08:58Can you believe it?
01:08:59Your brother,
01:09:00a Duke.
01:09:01What does that have to do with you?
01:09:03It has everything to do with me,
01:09:04darling.
01:09:05You're my fiance,
01:09:07remember?
01:09:08Don't forget about me just because your brother's a Duke now.
01:09:10You are truly shameless,
01:09:12John.
01:09:13Don't be like that,
01:09:14my dear,
01:09:15darling fiance.
01:09:16Fiance,
01:09:16have you forgotten what you just called me?
01:09:19A dirty whore?
01:09:21Only fit to wait 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 doesn't suit a pretty face like yours.
01:09:31Women like us,
01:09:32we ought to understand our husband's temperaments.
01:09:36My sister,
01:09:37Petty,
01:09:38that's rich coming from you.
01:09:40Oh,
01:09:41Duke Arthur,
01:09:42my brother,
01:09:43I must apologize for what I said.
01:09:46I'll apologize to Anna.
01:09:47There is no need.
01:09:49I have no wish to hear anything further from you.
01:09:52The woman has spoken,
01:09:53John.
01:09:53It seems my sister disdains
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 a big misunderstanding,
01:10:06of course.
01:10:07I'm sure you can forgive me.
01:10:09Please,
01:10:10give me another chance.
01:10:12Yes,
01:10:12dear,
01:10:13just a misunderstanding.
01:10:15Let's put it all 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 to forget
01:10:25what you've done to my mother
01:10:26and father.
01:10:27My brother's title
01:10:28has nothing to do with you.
01:10:30I wish for you to be gone
01:10:32and never come back.
01:10:34Anna,
01:10:35forgive me.
01:10:40You're better than this.
01:10:43Please,
01:10:44forgive me.
01:10:45You're better than this.
01:10:48Leave my sister alone,
01:10:51scum.
01:10:51Your apology means 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 much kindness.
01:11:12Mother,
01:11:13please ask him to forgive me.
01:11:15I cannot live without Anna.
01:11:16Jane,
01:11:18please.
01:11:19I even got you the job
01:11:21at the Baron's Manor.
01:11:22Are you going to be so cruel
01:11:23as to forget everything
01:11:24I've done for you
01:11:25that John's done for 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 for her.
01:11:35I'll give her whatever she wants.
01:11:37If you just,
01:11:38please,
01:11:39forgive my 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 10 long years
01:11:55I was gone?
01:11:56Did you help them 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 ever
01:12:03forsaken you.
01:12:04But you,
01:12:06had I not been announced
01:12:07as the Duke,
01:12:07you would have kicked them
01:12:08to the ground
01:12:09and spit on their bodies.
01:12:10Silas,
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,
01:12:18Arthur,
01:12:20I...
01:12:20Silas!
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.
01:12:39and 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.
01:13:00Father,
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.
01:13:14But 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.
01:13:22for a podcast.
01:13:35Amen.
