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.

00:00:30You didn't recognize the necklace.

00:00:32Your land has been seized.

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.

00:00:53Once upon a time, the Kingdom of Mercia is at war.

00:01:04Every man must stand and fight.

00:01:07No.

00:01:08No.

00:01:09No.

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?

00:01:24No.

00:01:25They won't.

00:01:26Okay?

00:01:26I 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.

00:01:50I 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.

00:02:04Wait.

00:02:04Mama.

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.

00:02:21I'm sorry, sweet.

00:02:22We 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!

00:02:50Every man must stand and fight.

00:02:59Take him.

00:05:46arthur

00:05:48where are you

00:05:52where are you

00:06:22I have a feeling I know why you're here.

00:06:31Your 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.

00:06:51Go, my boy.

00:06:56You've 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.

00:07:12They would be so proud to see the man you've become.

00:07:16And while you're at it, build me that castle.

00:07:19I won't let you down, sir.

00:07:30I miss you.

00:07:31Robert, 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, I beg of you.

00:07:47Aunt Jane, my connections are expensive.

00:07:52I'll look into it, but not today.

00:07:54The Duke is coming to Stamford.

00:07:57Everything has to be perfect.

00:07:59Robert, the Duke is coming.

00:08:00Robert, 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.

00:08:13Robert, have 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.

00:08:50But 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.

00:11:42Don'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.

00:12:03I 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.

00:13:35Robert!

00:13:48Robert!

00:13:50Robert!

00:13:51Don't!

00:13:52Not while the Duke is here.

00:13:54Robert!

00:13:56What are you doing to my mother?

00:13:58Anna!

00:14:01Give 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.

00:14:29Arthur and you...

00:14:30You never even planned to find Arthur.

00:14:36You never even thought to look for him.

00:14:38You liar!

00:14:40You cheat!

00:14:41Give me back my coin!

00:14:43Don't touch me with your filthy hands!

00:14:46And this?

00:14:48Say goodbye to your son.

00:14:49No!

00:14:54No!

00:14:57Mother!

00:14:58Mother, no!

00:15:03Mother, 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.

00:15:16Are you sure not with this?

00:15:17It's all right, Mother.

00:15:18Have you forgotten?

00:15:19I carry one, too.

00:15:22Oh, my God.

00:15:24Now, if you truly believe the Duke might be our Arthur,

00:15:27I'll see what I can do.

00:15:39Arthur, my brother, could it really be you?

00:15:42Your grace, my lord.

00:16:08Oh, forgive me, your grace.

00:16:09Useless girl.

00:16:15Your 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.

00:16:32Why does she seem so familiar?

00:16:34It seems that I have someone who the Duke might want.

00:16:41How could Robert do this to you?

00:16:45He beat you.

00:16:48You're his aunt for crying out loud.

00:16:50Oh, Carl.

00:16:52You know your family has always been cruel to us.

00:16:56It's only going to get worse

00:16:57now 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 the new fort here.

00:17:14See to it that all the families along this road

00:17:16are asked to leave

00:17:17and compensate them well.

00:17:19I will start the process right away.

00:17:20Okay.

00:17:21Okay.

00:17:22Okay.

00:17:23Okay.

00:17:24Okay.

00:17:25Okay.

00:17:26Okay.

00:17:27Okay.

00:17:27Now, what did the duke say?

00:17:31Did he...

00:17:33Mother.

00:17:35What?

00:17:36I don't think the duke is our Arthur.

00:17:40No.

00:17:41He does.

00:17:42He does resemble him, yes,

00:17:44but he didn't recognize the necklace.

00:17:47No.

00:17:49I'm so sorry.

00:17:52I thought it was him.

00:17:54I wanted to come back and give you the necklace.

00:17:56I know at least you'll sleep easier knowing this is by your side.

00:18:04Oh.

00:18:11Oh, your grace.

00:18:13I dare say you look as handsome as ever.

00:18:16These clothes are much more comfortable.

00:18:17I'll be good.

00:18:19No.

00:18:19I'll be good.

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.

00:18:30Yes, your grace.

00:18:39Well, it must be Anna.

00:18:40She must have forgot something.

00:18:41What are you all doing here, especially after what you did to my wife?

00:18:55Long time no see, brother. Still living in this hovel, huh?

00:18:59Would you like some bread? We were just about to sit down for lunch, so I can offer you a fresh loaf.

00:19:07You call this food? The baron's dogs wouldn't eat this.

00:19:17But fortune favors the undeserving. Now you'll be able to buy some real food.

00:19:24What do you mean, Laura? Tell them, Robert.

00:19:27It really is a shack, but luckily it'll be gone soon. Your land has been seized.

00:19:42This entire street will be dug up to make way for the new fort to bolster our defenses.

00:19:48The order came directly from the Duke himself.

00:19:50But you will be well compensated for the trouble. Just sign here and you'll receive 20 gold pieces.

00:20:00As your brother, I should be entitled to half. But as you have no son, and I have a son, I ought to take two thirds.

00:20:09What? No, this is our family home. No. If Arthur returns, how will he find his way home?

00:20:16She's right. We won't give up our land. Not for 20 gold coins. Not for nothing.

00:20:20Then you are dafter than I thought. Let me remind you, your son is not coming back because he's dead.

00:20:29No! No, no, no. You hold your tongue. Arthur will return. And we will remain here until he does.

00:20:35We won't give up hope. Not for any penny coin. You don't get a say. The order comes from above.

00:20:41Enough of this insolence. Leave my house at once. Leave my house.

00:20:45Carl. Carl, you're right. We are family. We 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.

00:21:00This place really does feel so familiar.

00:21:11What? What are you doing?

00:21:18I'll tell you this one last time. Sign a damn contract or I'll beat you to death.

00:21:23You are his brother. How can you do this to him?

00:21:26No man as useless as him deserves to be my brother.

00:21:33Sign it. Now.

00:21:48Stop it.

00:21:56Stop it. That's an order.

00:22:05What's a peasant like you doing here?

00:22:07Cross me and I'll beat you up too.

00:22:09You know who my son works for? The Baron.

00:22:12We're here to seize this land off his orders.

00:22:14So you better stay out of our affairs.

00:22:16So you're the Baron's henchman. I told him to see that every family is compensated fairly.

00:22:23And this is how you choose to do it?

00:22:31Good folks. You have my word. I will make this matter right.

00:22:35Lord Benjamin requests your land to build a new fort. But we will provide whatever is necessary for you.

00:22:41Do you know the Baron? Could you plead to him on our behalf, please?

00:22:46All we ask is that we remain here. We cannot leave our home, please.

00:22:49Rest assured, you will be well compensated if you choose to depart.

00:22:54No, we don't want coin. This is my son's home. If it's torn down, he will never find his way home.

00:23:02Your son was taken, you say?

00:23:03Yes. He was only 13 years old. Taken far too young and scripted by the Baron's soldiers.

00:23:11If we leave, he'll never find his way back. Please. Please, I beg of you.

00:23:18Just pinned. Yes. If it was a token, a promise that my children and I would always be a family together.

00:23:32This one is for you, Arthur.

00:23:39What?

00:23:48Mother. Arthur.

00:23:55Oh, is it you?

00:23:57It's me, Mom. I've come home. My boy. Ten long years. We searched for you. And finally, you come back to us.

00:24:09I'm sorry. I've been a bad son. But I promise, I will give you the life you deserve from here on out.

00:24:17Please forgive me.

00:24:27Can we stop with the theatrics?

00:24:29Ten years have passed and cousin Arthur returns as a peasant. I'd cry too if this were my son.

00:24:36Laura and George, do you see Arthur has come home?

00:24:39What's there to cheer for? A beggar for a son?

00:24:42Or a thief, more likely. Look at him. Wandering around, starving and desperate.

00:24:49I don't care what you say. But my son has come home and he is everything to me. Let's go inside and I will make your favorite roast.

00:24:58And George and Laura, I would prefer if you left. We would like to celebrate alone as a family.

00:25:04We're not leaving until you sign the contract, you useless fool.

00:25:12No, Robert, surely you understand. You're family. We'd like to celebrate.

00:25:16This low life doesn't deserve anything.

00:25:23I'm done arguing with you with this pigsty. Don't you point your finger at me. I could do much worse.

00:25:29Or do you want me to get my fiance so you can beg for her forgiveness instead? Remember, I'm engaged to the prestigious Lady Edith. If she finds out about this, you'll all get a good beating.

00:25:42Go away!

00:25:51This is a joyous day. And I do not wish to spend a squabbling with you, Bilk. Kneel before us, apologize, and be gone.

00:26:01You son of a whore. I'm the Baron's butler. The highest on his staff. You think I'd kneel to a common maid? You better show your respect.

00:26:22Now will you go?

00:26:23You scum! I'll have you know just how much I am worth. Inform Lady Edith. Ask her to come, won't you?

00:26:30Yes, Mr. Wellesley. Well, well, well. You fools have chosen not to take the gold. But it was the Baron's orders. Your hovel must come down.

00:26:41Lord Benjamin's orders, was it? That's Baron Stamford to you. On the contrary. I think I can call him Benjamin just fine.

00:26:51Are you mad? Who do you think you are? The Duke? Pulling rank like you're anything special.

00:26:59I dare say I'm special enough that even Lord Benjamin would kneel before me. What's that I hear about the Baron?

00:27:09Lord Benjamin, sir. The Duke has dismissed his guards and gone on a stroll.

00:27:14Where to? Around where the families are being asked to relocate, sir.

00:27:17What? Well, I hope he doesn't run into the Wellesleys.

00:27:21Guys, come with me.

00:27:25What's that I hear about the Baron?

00:27:33Did I just hear someone disrespecting my cousin, the Baron of Stamford?

00:27:38I tried to pay these lowlifes with gold, but they refused to leave their pigsty and their son even hit me.

00:27:48You scumbag. How dare you lay your dirty hands on my fiancé? Do you know who I am?

00:27:57Why would I care who you are? He hit my parents, so I hit him back. Sounds fair to me.

00:28:03You are in the town of Stamford, my cousin's jurisdiction, and Robert is his head butler.

00:28:10You'll pay for what you've done. Bring him to the dungeons.

00:28:14No.

00:28:15I'll teach him a lesson.

00:28:16No. No, no, no. Please don't. Please don't.

00:28:20Lord Benjamin's cousin. Is this how he taught you to behave?

00:28:23Oh. I didn't expect a lowly peasant like you to know who my cousin is. Don't tell me he's spoken to you before.

00:28:31Of course. In fact, why don't you ask him who I am?

00:28:35That's enough. Guards, seize him.

00:28:38No, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:28:40Don't take her, please. He just came back.

00:28:42No, no, no, no. No. Please don't.

00:28:44Let go of me. This is your last chance. Seize 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. I could kill you right now if I wanted to.

00:28:56Kill me? No.

00:28:57Is that right? No.

00:28:59Fine. I'll go with you. But don't say I didn't warn you.

00:29:02Watch your tongue. But don't worry. Soon, you'll be too busy screaming in my dungeon.

00:29:07to talk back.

00:29:09Please, please don't hurt him now, Arthur.

00:29:12Father, mother, don't worry.

00:29:14I'll be back very soon.

00:29:16You think you're coming back?

00:29:18Take him away.

00:29:19Oh, Tom.

00:29:20Take your hand out of my son!

00:29:23Well, well.

00:29:25I didn't expect that runt to hit me.

00:29:27Just wait.

00:29:28The two of you will join him soon.

00:29:30Let's go, father.

00:29:32Serves you right, brother.

00:29:37I'm in there now.

00:29:44What happened here?

00:29:46Lord Benjamin, it was all your butler's doing.

00:29:49And your cousin, Lady Edith.

00:29:52They even took my son to the dungeon.

00:29:54Your son?

00:29:57Tall and with dark hair?

00:30:01Oh!

00:30:05We need to go.

00:30:06Now!

00:30:07God, Carl, what are we going to do?

00:30:10Because Arthur's gone.

00:30:12Anne.

00:30:13Anne is engaged to John Moore.

00:30:15The Moors can help.

00:30:16They're engaged?

00:30:16Yes, but that was years ago.

00:30:18John Moore's a rich man now.

00:30:19He certainly can't.

00:30:20We have to try, Carl.

00:30:21Please.

00:30:22You're right.

00:30:23We have to just...

00:30:24You're right.

00:30:24We have to try.

00:30:25We have to find our son.

00:30:30What happened to that fire?

00:30:32That rage?

00:30:34Scared of the consequences now, runt?

00:30:37Consequences?

00:30:37For giving you what you deserve.

00:30:45Watch your mouth.

00:30:47Your family is done for, and you're still talking back.

00:30:53No, my lady.

00:30:54It's your family that's done for.

00:30:56I've made up my mind.

00:30:58I will not spare you.

00:31:01Me needing sparing from you.

00:31:04You'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.

00:31:18You insolent brat!

00:31:29What are you doing?

00:31:33Reminding you of your place.

00:31:38Stop it or I'll have you killed!

00:31:40You!

00:31:41Have me killed.

00:31:43You've got the wrong man.

00:31:45Consider it your warning, cousin.

00:32:00The gall of you!

00:32:03Threatening me and then calling yourself my cousin!

00:32:06I won't let you off easy!

00:32:08Oh!

00:32:09You want another go?

00:32:10Still trying to act tough?

00:32:12It seems like we'll need to teach you a lesson.

00:32:15Guards!

00:32:16Flog him!

00:32:19Hold it!

00:32:20You're not flogging anyone.

00:32:28Hold it!

00:32:36Oh, cousin, you don't understand.

00:32:38This lowly scum had disregarded your orders and impeded the Duke's relocation efforts and...

00:32:43And he even tried to punch me.

00:32:45Cousin Benjamin, you must see to it that he is punished.

00:32:48Stopped oinking once the Baron showed up, hmm?

00:32:52Your side of the Wellesley family is going to be dinner.

00:32:55Sir, this lowly villain is unfortunately my cousin.

00:33:00Just like his parents, they've no regard for your authority.

00:33:03That's right, Benjamin.

00:33:05What happened again?

00:33:06We had gone to the less fortunate Wellesley's to evit them, but he tried to stop us.

00:33:11So 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.

00:33:19He hit us and ordered us to kneel to him.

00:33:23He even said that you were lowlier than he.

00:33:26You must punish him accordingly.

00:33:28As I was saying, the consequences of your actions...

00:33:32You fool.

00:33:36There will be consequences, all right.

00:33:38For you!

00:33:39What for, sir?

00:33:42Have I done something wrong, sir?

00:33:44I don't...

00:33:45Cousin, you misunderstand.

00:33:49There is no misunderstanding.

00:33:52You've lost your mind.

00:33:54Do you know who this man is?

00:33:55Do you know who this man is?

00:34:01He's nothing but a beggar, the son of peasants.

00:34:07Get out of my sight, you pathetic woman.

00:34:13Duke of Mercia, your grace.

00:34:17Pardon my tardiness.

00:34:20Duke?

00:34:21What do you mean, Duke?

00:34:24Sir, you must be mistaken.

00:34:26Rightly so.

00:34:27He's a peasant, a beggar.

00:34:30How can he be the Duke?

00:34:33Don't question me.

00:34:36No.

00:34:36No, no, no, no, no, no.

00:34:38This is possible.

00:34:39How can you say you're the Duke?

00:34:43Shut it, Wellesley.

00:34:45You 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.

00:34:53George, what have we done?

00:35:02Lord Vengeance.

00:35:04It seems that you've neglected your duties as baron.

00:35:08Your people have shown me nothing but disdain.

00:35:12They take from the poor, torture your innocent, pillage and kill.

00:35:16Have you no order in Stamford?

00:35:19I'll have them punished for their wrongdoings.

00:35:22Their wrongdoings?

00:35:23I imagine then it was you who have allowed them to do this.

00:35:28And it is you who must be punished.

00:35:31Mercy, your grace.

00:35:33I'll have them flogged, exiled, punished to the extent of the law.

00:35:38Please, your grace, spare us.

00:35:40Cousin.

00:35:44It's my fault.

00:35:46See?

00:35:46Your grace, I've been a fool.

00:35:50Punish me.

00:35:51Flog me as you will.

00:35:52But let me live.

00:35:55We are from the same family, Duke Arthur.

00:35:58I don't want to die.

00:36:01Young Arthur, my son had just become a butler.

00:36:04He's only just delivered us from the clutches of poverty.

00:36:08Please, we adore him so.

00:36:10You must kill him or exile him.

00:36:14Please, I beg you, as your uncle, as your father's old brother.

00:36:19You're too cruel, Arthur.

00:36:23How could you do this to another Wellesley?

00:36:29Cruelty?

00:36:30Have you forgotten your cruelty to mother and father?

00:36:33Threatening to leave them homeless and laughing in their face when they begged you!

00:36:38Have you forgotten what you've done to my parents?

00:36:40Your own brother?

00:36:43And cousin Robert?

00:36:45What happened to making me see the consequences of my actions?

00:36:49Did you pity your poor cousin then?

00:36:51I've seen you for what you are.

00:36:54Shameless and wretched scum.

00:36:57You are unfit to live.

00:37:00Have them dealt with.

00:37:03And think about what you've done.

00:37:04You're meant to be noble.

00:37:06Not only in your actions, but in your name.

00:37:09See that your people behave.

00:37:11Or I'll have your title removed.

00:37:13I will see to them personally.

00:37:16Oh, please.

00:37:17Oh, sir.

00:37:18Please.

00:37:20Robert deceived me.

00:37:21It's all his fault.

00:37:23Please, Duke Arthur.

00:37:24Spare me.

00:37:26I'll do anything for you.

00:37:28Egypt.

00:37:29What are you doing?

00:37:32You villain.

00:37:33If it weren't for you, I never would have gotten involved with this mess.

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

00:37:38From this moment onward, I'll have nothing to do with you.

00:37:42I beg of you, O'Greed and Honorable Duke.

00:37:44Forgive me.

00:37:45Don't you want to see what I have to offer?

00:37:50Save it, Shlop.

00:37:52Lord Benjamin.

00:37:54Make sure these vermin never cross my path again.

00:37:59They make me sick.

00:38:04Guards!

00:38:05Lock them up.

00:38:07Cousin, please!

00:38:08Won't you speak to him?

00:38:09Just let me go.

00:38:11I won't ever do it again.

00:38:14No!

00:38:15No!

00:38:16Sir!

00:38:17Please!

00:38:19Please!

00:38:20No!

00:38:26In good news, Benjamin, I found my parents.

00:38:29I thought it was wonderful, Your Grace.

00:38:32What a blessed day it is.

00:38:34I wish to host a banquet tonight.

00:38:36Introduce my parents to upper society.

00:38:39Life has been cruel to them.

00:38:41And I wish for them to live happily.

00:38:44Oh, and my sister too, Anna.

00:38:47I want to do something special for her as well.

00:38:49Did you just say Anna?

00:38:52Answer the maid, Anna.

00:38:54Right.

00:38:55Anna.

00:38:55She works here, doesn't she?

00:38:58Seems that I have someone the Duke might want.

00:39:04Mr. Wellesley.

00:39:05Lord Benjamin says Anna is to attend to the Duke personally for the next few days.

00:39:10Did you just say Anna?

00:39:17And to the maid, Anna.

00:39:19Right.

00:39:20Anna.

00:39:20She works here, doesn't she?

00:39:22Bring me to her.

00:39:23No, Your Grace.

00:39:24I...

00:39:25What?

00:39:26I thought...

00:39:27I thought that you fancied her, so I...

00:39:29What have you done?

00:39:30Bring me to her right now!

00:39:32You have fine features.

00:39:46For a scullery maid, I can see why he likes you.

00:39:51Mr. Crowley, did you need something?

00:39:54Yes, pet.

00:39:56You'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.

00:40:09I wouldn't dare.

00:40:12Put this on.

00:40:20Perfect.

00:40:20I can see why he chose you in particular.

00:40:25Mr. Crowley, what's all this about?

00:40:27The Baron has ordered you to meet another client.

00:40:31A big man.

00:40:32You are to be his mistress.

00:40:34To satisfy his physical needs, of course.

00:40:38An honor for a common whore like you.

00:40:40No, I refuse.

00:40:43You don't have a choice.

00:40:46Baron's orders.

00:40:46Ah!

00:40:49Ah!

00:40:50Do you even know who you are serving?

00:40:52It is the Duke.

00:40:54The one you poured tea on.

00:40:55What?

00:40:56The Duke?

00:40:57Aw, dumb already, are you?

00:40:59Still think you can say no, whore?

00:41:01Please.

00:41:02I don't want to.

00:41:03No.

00:41:07It's a good opportunity, dammit.

00:41:11Mr. Crowley, I'm betrothed.

00:41:14I don't want to be another man's mistress.

00:41:18Hadn't your father just fallen ill?

00:41:19Weren't you complaining about money?

00:41:22Don't you even want to help your family, you ingrate?

00:41:24Sir.

00:41:25Sir.

00:41:26Sir.

00:41:27Sir.

00:41:28Sir.

00:41:29Sir.

00:41:30Sir.

00:41:31Sir.

00:41:32Sir.

00:41:33Sir.

00:41:37Sir.

00:41:38Sir.

00:41:39Sir.

00:41:40Sir.

00:41:41Sir.

00:41:42Expensive little trinkets.

00:41:51I would never sell my body.

00:41:54Not for a few coppers, not for anything.

00:41:59I am a woman of honor.

00:42:01Honor is for people who deserve it, not a lowly whore like you.

00:42:12You don't get to stay now!

00:42:19Michael, please!

00:42:21Hands off of her!

00:42:23You don't get to stay now!

00:42:25Michael, please!

00:42:29Hands off of her!

00:42:31He didn't hurt you, did he?

00:42:33Are you the Duke, sir?

00:42:35Sir, what is the meaning of this?

00:42:39You imbecile!

00:42:41But, sir, you said...

00:42:44Have you no shame acting like this in my manner?

00:42:48Sir, this bitch refused your orders.

00:42:52It is my right as house steward to teach her a lesson.

00:42:58Apologize to her.

00:43:00Or I'll have you fired.

00:43:02Apologize, sir, but she's the lowly scullery maid.

00:43:06She was out of line.

00:43:08A 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?

00:43:25Are you really my brother?

00:43:27My Arthur?

00:43:29Yes, Anna.

00:43:31I've come back to protect you and mother and father.

00:43:34Arthur?

00:43:35Where have you been all these years?

00:43:39You missed you terribly.

00:43:40There, there.

00:43:42Let me deal with this man first.

00:43:45Once again, Lord Benjamin, your men have shown their true colors.

00:43:55Disgusting and vile.

00:43:57Sir, I failed to discipline them.

00:44:00But yes, sir.

00:44:03Duke, I was wrong.

00:44:06I would have never treated her like that had I known that she was your sister.

00:44:13Yet you see no issue in treating her this way if she wasn't.

00:44:17Isn't that so?

00:44:19Lowly servants?

00:44:21They're worthless in your eyes, aren't they?

00:44:23Well, Mr. Stewart, you're worthless to me.

00:44:26No!

00:44:27It was Benjamin, the Baron!

00:44:28He asked me to!

00:44:29Lord!

00:44:30No, I didn't!

00:44:31God!

00:44:32Throw him into the dungeon!

00:44:34No!

00:44:35No, please!

00:44:36No, sir!

00:44:37No!

00:44:38No!

00:44:39No!

00:44:42Anna, tell me truly.

00:44:44Are you alright?

00:44:46Yes, I am now.

00:44:48Because you're back.

00:44:49And I can't believe it.

00:44:51You're the Duke!

00:44:52Oh, let's go see mother and father.

00:44:55They'll be overjoyed.

00:44:56I just know it.

00:44:57Anna, I've already met them.

00:44:59Oh, then you must know the years have been quite hard on them.

00:45:04But it's all worth it, because you're back.

00:45:07Anna, stay here.

00:45:09I'll bring them here, okay?

00:45:12Duke Arthur, I believe that your parents are currently of the Moors.

00:45:16John Moore has been engaged to your sister for some time.

00:45:21Yes, John and I are engaged, but...

00:45:24He's your fiancee, Anna.

00:45:26So I'll love him like a brother.

00:45:28Lord Benjamin, arrange a feast for tonight.

00:45:31I want to show our parents high society.

00:45:34And invite John Moore.

00:45:36I'll speak to the king.

00:45:38See if he can grant him a noble title.

00:45:43As you wish, Duke Arthur.

00:45:44Is that the Moors' home?

00:45:54A fine place for a merchant family, but...

00:45:57They'll be able to afford better very soon.

00:46:02Well, we're here.

00:46:04The home of our supposed son-in-law.

00:46:06Yeah.

00:46:14You tottering fool.

00:46:16John!

00:46:17Why have you come back?

00:46:22John, this is your fiancee's father.

00:46:25You will call me Mr. Moore.

00:46:30And you are nothing to me.

00:46:31John!

00:46:32That's Mr. Moore.

00:46:34John!

00:46:35I'm sorry.

00:46:37Mr. Moore, please, let's talk.

00:46:40And what is this about me being your daughter's fiancee?

00:46:44You've always been poor, but now you're liars, too.

00:46:47Mr. Moore, you know as well as I do.

00:46:49You've been betrothed to Anna for years.

00:46:52Your father and I, we had an arrangement.

00:46:54That may be so, but circumstances have changed.

00:46:58Do you think my father would want me marrying someone that comes from you filthy swine?

00:47:04That's not why we're here today.

00:47:07We're here because...

00:47:08Oh, I know.

00:47:09Money.

00:47:10Isn't that right?

00:47:14Alms for the poor.

00:47:16Now away with you.

00:47:18Mr. Moore, we didn't come here today for money.

00:47:21That's enough!

00:47:22Your breath reeks.

00:47:24Beat some sense into the old caja and take him out of here.

00:47:29I'd like to see you try.

00:47:31I'd like to see you try.

00:47:32What?

00:47:34I'd like to see you try.

00:47:39Arthur!

00:47:40My boy!

00:47:41They set you free!

00:47:43Rightfully so, father.

00:47:44Oh, Arthur.

00:47:46It's so good to see you alive and well.

00:47:49Father.

00:47:50Mother.

00:47:52Robert's been punished for what he did to you.

00:47:54You must be the son I keep hearing so much about.

00:47:57Weren't you kidnapped to join the army?

00:48:00Run away, did you?

00:48:02And now you've come here to leech off me!

00:48:05You're John Moore.

00:48:07Now, did I hear you say you wanted to have my father beaten?

00:48:12So what if I did?

00:48:14What's a rotten like you gonna do about it anyway?

00:48:18Cry?

00:48:19Piss your pants?

00:48:21Say that again.

00:48:28If you think I'm gonna take it easy on you because you're engaged to my sister,

00:48:32then you'd be wrong.

00:48:34Let go of me, you dirty dog!

00:48:41Resulting to violence now, are we?

00:48:44Like the lowlife you are.

00:48:46Come on then.

00:48:48Hit me.

00:48:49And you regret ever being born.

00:48:51You think that can stop me?

00:48:54Who do you think you are?

00:48:55Who do you think you are?

00:49:04Oh, it's just a peasant.

00:49:06John, my darling.

00:49:07I come bearing good news.

00:49:09Father says the Duke has arranged for a banquet at the manor and you're invited.

00:49:13And the Duke is going to ask the king to grant you a title.

00:49:16Finally you can be part of upper society and we can marry!

00:49:19A title?

00:49:20Adela, tell me it's true.

00:49:21I finally have a name to match my wealth.

00:49:24No one will be able to tell us what to do.

00:49:27No one will be able to say no to us.

00:49:31Of course it's true, John, darling.

00:49:33The Duke adores my father.

00:49:34He's the Baron after all.

00:49:36In fact, the Duke is at the manor right now.

00:49:40Don't waste your time with these peasants.

00:49:42Let's go, John.

00:49:43Lady Adela, I'm afraid we must deal with these peasants first.

00:49:46As dearly as they are, this is Arthur, Anna's brother.

00:49:50And now that I'm rich, he wants to force me to marry his sister.

00:49:54What did you say?

00:49:56Oh, I see.

00:49:59You're that boy that was kidnapped as a child.

00:50:01Well then.

00:50:03Be gone.

00:50:04We have nothing to give a shameless beggar.

00:50:08Oh, don't touch me, you disgusting man!

00:50:10Don't you know who my father is?

00:50:12Lord Benjamin, evidently.

00:50:15Don't you know?

00:50:16Even your father watches his tongue around me.

00:50:19Ah!

00:50:20Adela!

00:50:22I can't believe I've been touched by a dirty beggar!

00:50:25Have you no manners around the rich?

00:50:27You scum!

00:50:29You better beg for forgiveness if you want to live.

00:50:32And what authority do you have over me?

00:50:34And what authority do you have over me?

00:50:36Every authority, peasant scum!

00:50:39My father is the Baron of Stamford.

00:50:42And now that you're all here, let it be known.

00:50:45I am not going to marry Anna.

00:50:48I am to be a noble, so do not let me catch sight of you all again!

00:50:52Going back on your word, John?

00:50:54That's unbecoming of your future title.

00:50:57I think John has made himself clear enough.

00:51:00Get lost, you blood-sucking leech.

00:51:02Leeching off of him?

00:51:04I would never.

00:51:06His money is as vile as his word.

00:51:09No matter.

00:51:11A man like you doesn't deserve my sister anyway.

00:51:16Men, get him!

00:51:19No!

00:51:20No!

00:51:22Men, get him!

00:51:24No!

00:51:26Arthur, we will tell Anna.

00:51:29But, please, we cannot anger Mr. Moore.

00:51:34He's going to be a noble now.

00:51:36At least your chambermaid of a mother knows how to act in front of men like me.

00:51:41Drop the matter, and I'll let you leave.

00:51:43We'll go.

00:51:44But best you remember, it is the Wellesleys who called off this engagement.

00:51:55Because you, John Moore, are unfit for my sister.

00:52:03John Moore, are unfit for my sister.

00:52:06My word.

00:52:08Unfit.

00:52:09For you.

00:52:11Let's see.

00:52:13Servant, servant, beggar.

00:52:15Oh, you're too funny.

00:52:17Take this as a friendly warning, John.

00:52:20Lest you regret your decision later.

00:52:22I've no mind to regret anything regarding you lot.

00:52:26Now that that's settled, if you ever speak to us again, I will have your legs cut off.

00:52:32Come now, we have a banquet to attend.

00:52:44Oh, that's the moors for you.

00:52:47Some coin, and they forget everything that we've ever done for them.

00:52:50Oh, Arthur.

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

00:52:55Oh, mother, don't say that, please.

00:52:57I've already arranged something for you.

00:52:58I finally found you. That's cause for celebration.

00:53:02You've arranged something? No.

00:53:04No, I...

00:53:06Please, I hope you haven't spent any coin on us, Arthur. What have you arranged?

00:53:11Just something small at the Baron's Manor.

00:53:13Don't worry, mother. It's been paid for.

00:53:16At the Baron's Manor? Arthur, we...

00:53:19Haven't you heard the Duke will be there?

00:53:21We can't possibly impose, it's...

00:53:22Like I said, mother. Don't worry. You'll see.

00:53:27Oh, sh...

00:53:29Lady Adela, this is all very splendid. You must introduce us to the Duke when he arrives.

00:53:44Oh, Mrs. Moore, of course. As the Baron of Stanford, my father is very close to the Duke.

00:53:51It's likely he was the one to recommend John in the first place.

00:53:55Of course, the Duke would love to meet you.

00:53:58I cannot believe it. A noble title.

00:54:01Lady Adela, you are simply full of surprises.

00:54:04You are the best match for John, no doubt about it.

00:54:06What do you mean to ask, Adela?

00:54:10Why would someone like the Duke come to Stanford in the first place?

00:54:14Well, Stanford is his hometown.

00:54:16The King dispatched him here to oversee the building of a new fort.

00:54:20The real reason is his parents.

00:54:23He was separated from them when he was a child.

00:54:25Even this banquet, I hear, is all for them.

00:54:28Must be good noble people to rear such a fine man like the Duke.

00:54:33We must make a good impression.

00:54:36Mm-hmm.

00:54:55How did those peasants get in?

00:54:57This banquet, I've arranged it all for you.

00:55:06I'll introduce you to everyone shortly.

00:55:09Arthur, don't just. What do you mean, for us?

00:55:13Mother, I'm serious. This is all for you.

00:55:17But, how could you have arranged all this? How much money did you spend?

00:55:23Money has nothing to do with it, Father. I just want to see you happy.

00:55:27We are happy. Truly happy. We're finally all together again.

00:55:32John, I thought you told them to get lost. Why are they back?

00:55:44John, I thought you told them to get lost. Why are they back?

00:55:47Why are they back?

00:55:48Damn low-lives.

00:55:49They must've tailed us in.

00:55:52I knew those ill-bred dogs would go away that easily.

00:55:56Scoundrels, all.

00:55:58Mrs. Moore, rest easy.

00:56:01This banquet is held on the Duke's orders,

00:56:04and Father asked me to see that our guests enjoy themselves.

00:56:08I have every authority to throw them out.

00:56:14Come.

00:56:17Who let you in?

00:56:27Who let you in?

00:56:30You must be lost, peasant.

00:56:32This is the Duke's banquet, not the gruel kitchen.

00:56:36I suggest you turn around immediately.

00:56:38And I suggest you shut your mouth.

00:56:40This is my manor.

00:56:43My father is hosting it under direct orders of the Duke.

00:56:47You have no place to speak here.

00:56:51And you?

00:56:53You must be the bitch that John was engaged to.

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

00:57:00You'll have no way into his home.

00:57:03Unless you'd like to be our maid once we marry.

00:57:07Low-born as I may be, I'm still more noble than a harlot like you.

00:57:11You wench.

00:57:13I will not let you talk to Lady Adela like this.

00:57:16Apologize right now.

00:57:18I owe her nothing of the sort.

00:57:20She is the one who's courting an engaged man.

00:57:22I told your parents and your disgusting beggar of a brother I called off the engagement.

00:57:30You're not good enough for me.

00:57:32You're wrong.

00:57:33It's you who isn't good enough for me.

00:57:36I would never marry a man with such a fickle heart.

00:57:39Who would abandon his fiancee just to chase after some harlot's coin.

00:57:47You dirty bitch.

00:57:48That's what you get for talking to my son like that.

00:57:54How dare you raise your hands to my daughter.

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

00:57:59You're right mother.

00:58:01We ought to slap some sense into them.

00:58:03Anna, look at yourself.

00:58:05You're nothing compared to Lady Adela.

00:58:08It's no wonder I chose her.

00:58:10Lady Adela is Lord Benjamin's daughter.

00:58:14What do you have that Lady Adela doesn't?

00:58:18Besides this useless beggar of a brother.

00:58:22Do not insult my brother.

00:58:24He is more noble than any of you.

00:58:29All this dirty work must have done you in.

00:58:37A beggar like him.

00:58:39You lowly peasants.

00:58:41None of you deserve to talk to us.

00:58:43Get out or we'll throw you out with force.

00:58:48Get out or we'll throw you out with force.

00:58:51It is you who ought to be thrown out.

00:58:53What a pretty money sucking leech.

00:59:03I would tell her.

00:59:05I am disgusted by the implication.

00:59:09Despite her features, a maid that cleans chamber parts all day is more fit to marry a stable boy.

00:59:15Say that again and I'll make you pay.

00:59:19Oh no.

00:59:21What are you gonna do?

00:59:23Hit me?

00:59:25Well come on then.

00:59:26Have at it.

00:59:31Well, I do say I think this was the first time I heard someone ask for it.

00:59:35But I think we all heard him clearly enough.

00:59:41You villain.

00:59:42You actually asked for it.

00:59:44You asked for it.

00:59:45I obliged.

00:59:50Lord Benjamin.

00:59:52The Duke has arrived.

00:59:53He's here already.

00:59:55We have to go.

00:59:56You asked for it.

00:59:57I am to be a noble and you will not offend me again.

01:00:02Why should I care?

01:00:03I'm sure Lord Benjamin would understand.

01:00:05Do not speak my father's name.

01:00:08You're dead.

01:00:09My father will see to it when he arrives.

01:00:11On your knees.

01:00:13And I demand you apologize to John now.

01:00:16And your filthy parents too.

01:00:18Down!

01:00:19Who do you think you are barking orders at me?

01:00:21Don't think you're so high and mighty just because you followed us in.

01:00:24You've no right to speak to my son or Lady Adela like this.

01:00:28Don't you know how much I suffered being betrothed to your dirty whore of a sister?

01:00:33I will not let you embarrass me again.

01:00:39We've been gracious enough letting the matter go.

01:00:41Yet you shameless rats won't stop bothering us.

01:00:45Away. Off with you.

01:00:47Oh, Mrs. Moore. I have a much better idea.

01:00:50Let's add a few tears to their teary reunion.

01:00:53Guards!

01:00:57Execute him!

01:00:59I want to watch as I lose their precious son.

01:01:02Again.

01:01:04Oh, Lady Adela, I think if that's the case, we ought to keep him alive.

01:01:09He's already a useless beggar.

01:01:11We ought to break his legs and keep him that way.

01:01:13Lisa!

01:01:15Lady Moore!

01:01:16Please!

01:01:17I apologize.

01:01:18I'll have Arthur repent.

01:01:19Right away!

01:01:20Yes, please.

01:01:21Pardon us.

01:01:22Arthur.

01:01:23Please, I beg of you, apologize.

01:01:25Please.

01:01:27You've enough wit to be scared, but it's too late.

01:01:30It's not my fault you've been grating on my nerves.

01:01:33I've nothing left for pity.

01:01:35Seems like you have quite a loud bark with no bite now.

01:01:39What did you just say to me?

01:01:42Mother.

01:01:44Father.

01:01:45I already told you.

01:01:46This banquet is for you.

01:01:48In honor of us all being together again.

01:01:50You have every right to enjoy yourself.

01:01:53And my sister was correct.

01:01:54You ought to apologize for your poor behavior.

01:01:57And I ought to have you thrown out.

01:01:59Soon, you'll be kneeling before us, begging for the forgiveness.

01:02:02We have every right to withhold.

01:02:03A pity to have a son like him.

01:02:07Imagine spending 10 years to find your son just to have him turn out like this.

01:02:12The real pity is what will be happening to you soon.

01:02:15I think I'll be quite happy in the future.

01:02:18Oh, yes.

01:02:19Happy.

01:02:20Very happy, I imagine, with your legs mangled, crawling on the ground.

01:02:25Oh, and your poor parents.

01:02:27I'm sure they'll be very joyous over such a sight.

01:02:31Seize them!

01:02:32No.

01:02:33Please, no.

01:02:34Presenting, the honorable Lord Benjamin, Baron of Stamford.

01:02:41Oh, you're in for it now.

01:02:43Lord Benjamin is the most powerful man in Stamford.

01:02:47And he's backed by the Duke, whose authority is second only to the king.

01:02:51You poor, poor souls.

01:02:53We'll see what the Duke has to say when he hears about this.

01:02:57I reckon you'll all be beaten to death in the dungeons.

01:02:59Don't waste your breath, madam.

01:03:01A commoner like him can't even fathom the great power the Duke has.

01:03:05Of course, Lady Adela.

01:03:06It'd be an honor for him to lay eyes on the gentlemen before he crushes them like the rest they are.

01:03:12Oh, I can't wait.

01:03:16How unfortunate it had to come to this.

01:03:19Yes.

01:03:20How unfortunate it is for you.

01:03:23Lord Benjamin is my father.

01:03:24And once I tell him what you've done to me and my dear John, he'll have you all beheaded.

01:03:32No.

01:03:33Oh, how lucky it is to be so simple-minded.

01:03:37You, half-dead cauders.

01:03:40And you, harlot.

01:03:43Any last words?

01:03:45No teary goodbyes?

01:03:47Or do you wish to die with him?

01:03:50John, please.

01:03:52Arthur was just impulsive.

01:03:53Please put in a good word for him.

01:03:55Get your dirty hands off of me!

01:03:57You scoundrel!

01:03:58I'll do it again!

01:04:03You scoundrel!

01:04:05I'll do it again!

01:04:07John!

01:04:09My darling boy!

01:04:10How dare you!

01:04:12Touch my parents again and your family will pay.

01:04:15Let it be known, this night was meant to be a joyous one.

01:04:18And I did not wish to taint it with strife and bloodshed.

01:04:22I would have let you go, as awful as your behavior was to me.

01:04:24But you insulted my virtuous sister and raised your hand to my saintly mother and father!

01:04:30Your actions beg for punishment, and I am happy to see to it.

01:04:35Let it be known, I plan to exile the Moore family from the good town of Stamford.

01:04:44Oh, you've gone mad.

01:04:46Truly mad.

01:04:48Lady Adela, have your men restrain him for the safety of your guests.

01:04:51And have him flogged in the dungeon!

01:04:56What's this again about the dungeons?

01:05:02Lord Benjamin, you've finally come.

01:05:04My lord, we've been troubled so by these lowly peasants.

01:05:08Father, it's them. I say we take them to the dungeons.

01:05:10This is the Duke's banquet, Adela. I will not tolerate your antics.

01:05:20Pardon me, Father. It seems I have been lax, for these lowly, dirty servants have snuck in.

01:05:27Lowly, dirty servants?

01:05:29Yes, Father. The Mr. and Mrs. are servants, and so is the daughter. And he's a beggar. A vile, disgusting man.

01:05:41Perhaps we could send them away with some scraps from the kitchens. I dare say they'd be better than anything they've ever tasted.

01:05:46Oh, Father, please allow me to see it. I'll have their bones broken and left out for the dogs for disturbing the Duke's banquet.

01:05:55Silence!

01:05:57But, Lord Benjamin, why?

01:06:00Duke of Mercia, Arthur.

01:06:03Your Grace.

01:06:05At your service.

01:06:06Hailed in his grace. The Duke, Arthur.

01:06:19What?

01:06:21That's him!

01:06:22He's Duke Arthur!

01:06:26That's him!

01:06:28He's Duke Arthur!

01:06:31Lord Benjamin,

01:06:32Benjamin.

01:06:33I was promised a warm welcome.

01:06:35What is all of this?

01:06:37I'll see to it, Your Grace.

01:06:39My boy.

01:06:41What did the parents say?

01:06:42Is it Duke Arthur that he just called you?

01:06:45What?

01:06:47Sir.

01:06:48Madam.

01:06:50Please.

01:06:52Benjamin.

01:06:53At your service.

01:06:54I don't understand.

01:06:56Are you really?

01:06:57Yes, Father.

01:06:59What?

01:07:01I'm the Duke.

01:07:02My boy?

01:07:03The Duke?

01:07:05That's my son!

01:07:07That's my son!

01:07:08He's the Duke!

01:07:10What did I say?

01:07:11My brother is more noble than anyone.

01:07:14Lord Benjamin, are you certain he's the Duke?

01:07:19Father, you said the Duke was a great man.

01:07:23You must be mistaken.

01:07:25You stupid girl!

01:07:27How could I be wrong?

01:07:30And you?

01:07:31You ought to be ashamed.

01:07:33How dare you do this to his grace, Duke Arthur?

01:07:36No!

01:07:37It can't be!

01:07:39Father, tell me it's a joke.

01:07:40It simply can't be!

01:07:42Get on your knees, girl!

01:07:44And maybe he'll forgive you.

01:07:48No!

01:07:49You said that the Duke was going to give John a title.

01:07:51Why would John call off the engagement to his sister?

01:07:53Oh!

01:07:55Maybe this will get through your thick skull.

01:07:58He is the Duke!

01:08:00The one and only.

01:08:02Guards, take her away until she's learned her lesson.

01:08:09Guards, take her away until she's learned her lesson.

01:08:13No!

01:08:14Father!

01:08:15No!

01:08:16It can't be!

01:08:17It can't be the Duke!

01:08:18It can't be!

01:08:22Your Grace, I must apologize.

01:08:24That's enough!

01:08:26Your family has played your hand for it.

01:08:28Duke Arthur, sir.

01:08:30Why, certainly.

01:08:32My son is still engaged to the Wellesley's daughter.

01:08:35Our connection is nothing to scoff at.

01:08:38Mother, my brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.

01:08:41My brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.

01:08:45My brother-in-law, a Duke, will be even richer.

01:08:48Will be set for life.

01:08:50Oh!

01:08:51Married to the sister of the Duke.

01:08:53Oh, goodness!

01:08:55That must be why he wanted to give me a noble title.

01:08:57So I can marry Anna.

01:08:59Anna.

01:09:00Can you believe it?

01:09:01Your brother, a Duke.

01:09:03What does that have to do with you?

01:09:05It has everything to do with me, darling.

01:09:07You're my fiancé, remember?

01:09:08Don't forget about me just because your brother's a Duke now.

01:09:12You are truly shameless, John.

01:09:15Don't be like that, my dear, darling fiancé.

01:09:17Fiancé?

01:09:19Have you forgotten what you just called me?

01:09:21A dirty whore?

01:09:23Only fit to wait as table boy.

01:09:25Isn't that right?

01:09:27Oh, Anna, forgive him, would you?

01:09:29A pettiness doesn't suit a pretty face like yours.

01:09:33Women like us, we ought to understand our husbands' temperaments.

01:09:38My sister.

01:09:40Petty.

01:09:41That's rich coming from you.

01:09:43Oh, Duke Arthur.

01:09:45My brother.

01:09:46I must apologize for what I said.

01:09:48I'll apologize to Anna.

01:09:50There is no need.

01:09:51I have no wish to hear anything further from you.

01:09:54The woman has spoken, John.

01:09:56It seems my sister disdains your vile habits.

01:09:59Anna, this is all my fault.

01:10:02We grew up together, didn't we?

01:10:03I loved you.

01:10:05I did.

01:10:06This has all been a big misunderstanding, of course.

01:10:09I'm sure you can forgive me.

01:10:11Please, give me another chance.

01:10:13Yes, dear, just a misunderstanding.

01:10:17Let's put it all behind us now, shall we?

01:10:22Forgive you!

01:10:24I don't think I will.

01:10:25It would be a sin to forget what you've done to my mother and father.

01:10:29My brother's title has nothing to do with you.

01:10:32I wish for you to be gone and never come back.

01:10:36Anna.

01:10:40Forgive me.

01:10:42You're better than this.

01:10:43Leave my sister alone, scum. Your apology means nothing.

01:10:44Please, your grace, Duke Arthur. It's all my fault. I've wronged you. I admit it. I beg your pardon.

01:11:03Mr. Westerly, Madame, please ask Arthur to show us mercy.

01:11:09I was betrothed to Anna. I've shown her much kindness.

01:11:14Mother, please ask him to forgive me. I cannot live without Anna.

01:11:19Jane, please. I even got you the job at the Baron's Manor.

01:11:23Are you going to be so cruel as to forget everything I've done for you that John's done for you?

01:11:29A bit of compassion for an old friend?

01:11:33Yes, Mr. Welsie, please.

01:11:36I'll do anything for her. I'll give her whatever she wants.

01:11:39If you just please forgive my one transgression.

01:11:43How dare you ask for compassion?

01:11:49How dare you ask for compassion?

01:11:51Have you shown any compassion to my father? To my mother?

01:11:56Those ten long years I was gone. Did you help them at all?

01:12:00Did you give them any aid?

01:12:02You speak of them as an old friend.

01:12:04As if they have ever forsaken you.

01:12:06But you, had I not been announced as the Duke,

01:12:10you would have kicked them to the ground and spit on their bodies.

01:12:13You called off my sister's engagement for the first noble lady you saw.

01:12:17You do not deserve my mercy.

01:12:18Duke, Arthur, I-

01:12:22Silence! I've seen you at your worst.

01:12:25I've seen how you treated me.

01:12:27My father, my mother, Anna.

01:12:30You are a shameless, filthy villain.

01:12:34Be gone!

01:12:35Lord Benjamin.

01:12:37Lord Benjamin.

01:12:38Yes, sir.

01:12:39Have the Moors removed from the manor.

01:12:46Lord Benjamin.

01:12:47Yes, sir.

01:12:48Have the Moors removed from the manor.

01:12:51And forbid anyone from doing business with them in the town of Stanford.

01:12:55Yes, sir.

01:12:56Much better.

01:13:02Father.

01:13:04Mother.

01:13:06Anna.

01:13:08Let us enjoy this banquet in peace.

01:13:10Arthur.

01:13:12This banquet is lovely.

01:13:16But nothing is better than us being reunited as a family.

01:13:21And together we'll be forever.

01:13:25Lunchtime,
