Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Oh my god, Henley.
00:00:07Oh my god.
00:00:12You're covered in coffee.
00:00:13Yeah, of course.
00:00:14I came as soon as I got Mom's message.
00:00:16What happened?
00:00:17I skipped breakfast and fainted on the track.
00:00:20It's no big deal.
00:00:21You had me so worried.
00:00:23It would take more than an empty stomach to kill me off.
00:00:26You're right.
00:00:28You know what? Let me go grab you some food.
00:00:30Okay?
00:00:32What can't be happening?
00:00:34I'm afraid it sucks the situation.
00:00:36Mom?
00:00:37I'm sorry.
00:00:38The doctor has some bad news.
00:00:40What?
00:00:41I'm sorry.
00:00:42Your sister has leukemia.
00:00:44Our insurance has expired.
00:00:47There's no way we can pay for her treatment.
00:00:49Don't worry. I'll figure something out.
00:00:51You just go and look after Henley for a moment, okay?
00:00:54Okay.
00:00:55Okay?
00:00:58Oh my god.
00:01:02What am I going to do?
00:01:04I'm only on minimum wage.
00:01:06There are other ways to pay.
00:01:09Tell me.
00:01:10Are you single?
00:01:11What?
00:01:12What's that got to do with anything?
00:01:14It might just save your sister's life.
00:01:18A deluxe mail order bride service?
00:01:21Hello?
00:01:22You got your best dress, Harry Douglas.
00:01:23We found you a bidder.
00:01:27Hello?
00:01:28You got your best dress, Harry Douglas.
00:01:29We found you a bidder.
00:01:33Hello?
00:01:34You got your best dress, Harry Douglas.
00:01:35We found you a bidder.
00:01:39Hello?
00:01:40You got your best dress, Harry Douglas.
00:01:41You got your best dress, Harry Douglas.
00:01:42We found you a bidder.
00:01:44We found you a bidder.
00:02:22Your Royal Highness, Princess Dima has arrived.
00:02:25Excellent. We can finally confirm our engagement.
00:02:28The thing is, we're not exactly sure where in the castle she is.
00:02:30She was last seen speaking to your cousin.
00:02:33Marcus is here.
00:02:35We'll find him before he starts any trouble.
00:02:37No need. I know exactly where he'll be.
00:02:50Dima!
00:02:51Edward!
00:02:54I'm sorry, my love. I don't know what came over me.
00:02:57I do.
00:02:58She wanted a taste of the true heir to the throne.
00:03:03Your Majesty, please.
00:03:05No.
00:03:06No.
00:03:07If either of you step foot in this palace again, I will have you both executed for treatment.
00:03:23Now get out.
00:03:28I guess there won't be a royal wedding after all.
00:03:31It took years to arrange your marriage to Princess Dima.
00:03:45And now you're throwing our new alliance with Lathina away?
00:03:50I wasn't the one fucking someone else on the throne.
00:03:52You watch your language, boy.
00:03:54She was having sex with cousin Marcus on our seat of power.
00:03:57The one he craves for himself.
00:04:01Surely you can't expect me to still marry her.
00:04:04I'll travel to Lathina and clear up your mess.
00:04:07But there will be a royal wedding.
00:04:10You are to find a new bride worthy of this crown.
00:04:15You are to find a new bride worthy of this crown.
00:04:45Harry Douglas.
00:04:49Spread your arms, please.
00:04:50Um, we agreed that our first date wouldn't be physical, but...
00:04:56Is that really necessary?
00:04:59Your bag, please.
00:05:01You're not my date, are you?
00:05:04I shouldn't have signed up for this.
00:05:06No, I'm sorry.
00:05:07I think I'm just going to go.
00:05:08Mom?
00:05:08Your Highness.
00:05:15Prince Edward.
00:05:24His Royal Highness Prince Edward Pierceman of Australia.
00:05:28That's yourself.
00:05:29Harry Douglas of Queens.
00:05:33Not a bad start.
00:05:34This is a joke, right?
00:05:36I mean, why would a prince need a mail-order bride?
00:05:39Have I read your profile?
00:05:41You're smart, beautiful, talented.
00:05:45But you're hiding something.
00:05:47You don't want money, you need it.
00:05:50You don't know anything about me.
00:05:52Precisely.
00:05:54So you're going to change that, or should I just assume that you are a gold digger like all the rest?
00:05:58You have a great day, Your Highness.
00:06:11Back to the airport, sir?
00:06:15No.
00:06:17Follow her.
00:06:18How are you feeling, Till?
00:06:27Why do people keep treating me like I'm dying?
00:06:30We were just worried about you.
00:06:35What's wrong?
00:06:36I think I'm hallucinating.
00:06:38What?
00:06:39Isn't that Prince Edward?
00:06:41What the hell are you doing here?
00:06:43Ari, you're speaking to literal royalty.
00:06:46It's all right.
00:06:47We bumped into each other as I toured the hospital, and I was a little rude.
00:06:52I apologise, Miss Douglas.
00:06:56Could I have a word outside?
00:07:06You're doing this for your sister?
00:07:08Well done.
00:07:09Gold star for the prince.
00:07:11If you marry me, I will pay for her whole treatment.
00:07:14Anything she needs.
00:07:18Wait, you're serious?
00:07:20Yes.
00:07:21But, if you'll permit me, there is one last thing I must test.
00:07:26What now?
00:07:45What now?
00:07:45I'm not using this.
00:08:07Australian tradition dictates that you mustn't see each other again until your wedding day.
00:08:10What, so he just kissed me and left?
00:08:12I'm to escort you to Australia as soon as you're done here.
00:08:14But I must ask you to keep the engagement a secret.
00:08:17Why?
00:08:18Every move a Royal Mex is in the spotlight.
00:08:20It's just one of the many things you're going to have to get used to.
00:08:23And fast.
00:08:25Your new life starts now.
00:08:39Ma'am, this is Prince Edward's younger brother, Prince Xavier.
00:08:43Oh, hi.
00:08:44Greetings, your Royal Highness.
00:08:48My God.
00:08:49She didn't even teach you how to curtsy.
00:08:50God, I'm sorry.
00:08:51Although that really was the worst case.
00:08:52I'm sorry.
00:08:53Although that really was the worst case.
00:08:54I'm sorry.
00:08:55the worst curtsy I think I've ever seen.
00:08:56So you're the face.
00:08:57I'm sorry.
00:08:58I'm sorry.
00:08:59I'm sorry.
00:09:00I'm sorry.
00:09:01I'm sorry.
00:09:02But that really was the worst curtsy I think I've ever seen.
00:09:06So you're the famous Harry Douglas I've heard so much about.
00:09:07I'm sorry.
00:09:08I'm sorry.
00:09:09I'm sorry.
00:09:10But that really was the worst curtsy I think I've ever seen.
00:09:11So you're the famous Harry Douglas I've heard so much about.
00:09:14I'm sorry.
00:09:15I'm sorry.
00:09:16I'm sorry.
00:09:17Although that really was the worst curtsy I think I've ever seen.
00:09:22So you're the famous Harry Douglas I've heard so much about.
00:09:27I'm Edward's younger, funnier, more handsome, more charismatic little brother.
00:09:32Sorry you ended up with the dad but we still have time to fall in love.
00:09:39Run away before the wedding.
00:09:42Come with me.
00:09:47This is our little fixer-upper.
00:09:51Your room's round about the 312th on the left.
00:09:56I imagine you want to settle in and rest but...
00:10:00I'm already late for our first appointment.
00:10:30From rags to riches.
00:10:45Let's make you a princess.
00:10:47Yes, queen.
00:11:05Or should I say, yes future queen.
00:11:08I've never seen myself like this.
00:11:10Let's drop those heels.
00:11:12Where did Edward find a savage?
00:11:25Isn't it obvious?
00:11:27She's a whore.
00:11:28He must have fallen in love with her.
00:11:31Almost between her legs.
00:11:33She'll be gone as soon as he gets bored of fucking a present.
00:11:44Go away!
00:11:53So this is true?
00:11:56Who are you?
00:11:57Your predecessor.
00:11:58You have a very pretty face.
00:12:07If you want to keep it that way, leave while you still can.
00:12:12Is that a threat?
00:12:13No, no, it's a warning.
00:12:15Edward is not the man he makes out to be.
00:12:28And trust me my darling, you weren't the first one to fall for his trap.
00:12:32Harry?
00:12:33Harry you're not leaving are you?
00:12:36Harry?
00:12:37Harry?!
00:12:38Harry you're not leaving are you?
00:12:42Harry?
00:12:43Harry?
00:12:45Harry?
00:12:46Ari?
00:13:05Ari, I've been transferred to the best cancer hospital in Manhattan.
00:13:09My treatment's being paid for by some anonymous donor.
00:13:12That's great, Hen.
00:13:13I feel like I can finally breathe again.
00:13:16Oh, gotta go. Dog's here. Love you.
00:13:20Love you.
00:13:24Ari? Ari?
00:13:27It's a big day.
00:13:32Okay.
00:13:38Let's get this over with.
00:13:39You look radiant.
00:14:05I'm sorry.
00:14:06It's not the royal wedding you might have expected.
00:14:09My father is...
00:14:10I'm just doing this for Henley.
00:14:12Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to join this man and this woman in holy matrimony.
00:14:18Prince Edward, you're about.
00:14:21Ari, though it was circumstance that brought us together, it is love that will bind us.
00:14:28With this ring, I commit to you my heart, my spirit, and my soul.
00:14:38Let us share our lives until they are well spent and spend them well together.
00:14:43Do you, Edward, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:14:50I do.
00:14:51And do you, Ariana, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:14:55I do.
00:15:03And I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:15:07You may kiss the bride.
00:15:10Arrest that man!
00:15:14Arrest that man!
00:15:20What's the meaning of this?
00:15:21You know exactly what you did, you bastard.
00:15:25Explain yourself.
00:15:27Last night, Prince Edward here decided to pay a little visit to my beloved fiancΓ©.
00:15:34What fiancΓ©?
00:15:35Princess Dima.
00:15:44I only went there to achieve the royal wedding.
00:15:46And this is what he did to me when I refused to give it to him.
00:15:49That is a lie.
00:15:50Take him away.
00:15:52You don't believe him, do you, Ari?
00:15:56Ari?
00:15:57Ari?
00:15:59Ari?
00:16:01Ari!
00:16:10Comfortable, cousin?
00:16:12You scoundrel!
00:16:14It was you that put those brutus on Dima.
00:16:18What do you care?
00:16:19Besides, you've got your American Barbie princess now, anyway.
00:16:24What happened to you?
00:16:25We used to be like brothers.
00:16:27If we were brothers, then there wouldn't be a problem.
00:16:30I'd already have the crown.
00:16:33That's what this is about.
00:16:36You scredited me in order to steal my birthright.
00:16:38It's just as much my birthright as it is yours.
00:16:40My father should have fought for what was rightfully his.
00:16:43He was a younger twin!
00:16:44By what?
00:16:45Twelve minutes, was it?
00:16:47Your father was only given the airship because he was the favourite son.
00:16:50And you are willing to destroy our family over such nonsense.
00:16:57I am.
00:16:59But it doesn't have to go that way, cousin.
00:17:01Simply relinquish your claim to the throne to me, and I'll drop the charges.
00:17:07They won't stand anyway.
00:17:09Oh, they will.
00:17:11I have every High Court judge in my back pocket.
00:17:15If you even try and take this to trial, I will ruin you.
00:17:20If you even try and take this to trial, I will ruin you in order to steal your life.
00:17:33So, now, try to be a doctor with me to take this to trial.
00:17:38I am.
00:17:41No, I have to do this.
00:17:41Go away!
00:17:43No, I have to do this!
00:17:43Go away!
00:17:44Go away!
00:17:45Go away!
00:17:46Go away!
00:17:46Go away!
00:17:47Go away!
00:17:48No, I have to do this.
00:17:48Go away!
00:17:49Reach the chicken pen, but it's all out ahead. Leave a message and I'll clock you back
00:18:19That's gonna take some getting used to
00:18:49It's an honour to finally meet you, Your Majesty. I wish I could say the same. It's good that you're here, though. Sign this.
00:19:12An annulment agreement? Well, I presume your ridiculous marriage has not been consummated yet due to my son's situation. Sign the contract and let's end this foolishness.
00:19:25I can't. You can and you will. No. Edward promised me that he'd pay for my sister's cancelled tuition and I can't let her down.
00:19:36Well, if it's just the money you're here for, have it.
00:19:47This feels wrong. Either you sign or we force you to. Trust me, we still keep some nasty traditions in this palace.
00:19:58You asked me to find a bride worthy of the crown. So I did.
00:20:20The girls are commoners! No! Father! She is my wife! I will not let you change that.
00:20:29I'm so sorry for today. I don't want your apologies. I want the truth. Did you hurt Princess Dima?
00:20:48No. My cousin Marcus is trying to smear my reputation. Why should I believe you?
00:20:59Why do you think you're here, Ari? I don't know. I was supposed to marry Princess Dima for political reasons.
00:21:09When she cheated on me, I made a vow to only marry the person that I wanted. And then I found you.
00:21:16We barely know each other.
00:21:18Then give me a chance. I saw how you would go to any length to save your sister.
00:21:24And it resonated with me because... I lost my mother to cancer.
00:21:30Oh, Edward.
00:21:35I fell in love with your humanity. And now I'm asking that you trust in mine. I'm innocent.
00:21:46Edward, you're shaking.
00:21:50I never kissed the bride.
00:22:07It's still our wedding day for another five minutes.
00:22:11Wow. This hospital is amazing. I can't believe you did all of this for me and my family, Edward.
00:22:38I can't wait to tell them that we're married.
00:22:46Mom? Mom? What's wrong?
00:22:55I'm in this in a coma.
00:23:08So you ran off to get hitched while your sister fights for her life?
00:23:14It wasn't like that.
00:23:16That big shiny ring suggests otherwise.
00:23:19Edward is paying for him these treatments. He's the reason that she's in this hospital.
00:23:24Why? What does he get out of it?
00:23:27Me.
00:23:29You sold yourself to him.
00:23:32Is that what you're telling me?
00:23:34Friendly, Mom. Friendly.
00:23:38This is Dr. Mortimer. My private physician.
00:23:48I recommend we perform a stem cell transplant right away.
00:23:52It's risky, but it could save Henley's life.
00:23:55Ari, your medical record shows you could be an ideal donor.
00:23:59Just show me where to sign, Doc.
00:24:01I don't even know this person. She could be a quack.
00:24:04If Edward chose Simmons, who do I?
00:24:06We will get both of you prepped for surgery immediately.
00:24:26Mom?
00:24:27Oh, sweetheart, here. Have some water.
00:24:33He hasn't left your side.
00:24:34I'm so sorry about before.
00:24:37I was just struggling so much without you here.
00:24:42Henley?
00:24:43She's still sleeping.
00:24:45But the surgery was a success.
00:24:49I can't believe what you did for your sister.
00:24:51Selling yourself to this man.
00:24:55What they're saying about him in the papers.
00:24:59It's all lies, Mom.
00:25:01Mom, someone's trying to get him.
00:25:03I can't believe processes.
00:25:04I can't believe it.
00:25:05I can't believe it.
00:25:06There may be, she's pooping.
00:25:07I can't believe it.
00:25:08You're still sleeping right away.
00:25:09I can't believe it.
00:25:10doctor, Ari's awake.
00:25:11Ever!
00:25:12Ever!
00:25:13Ever!
00:25:14Ever!
00:25:16Ever!
00:25:18Ever!
00:25:19Ever!
00:25:21Ever!
00:25:23Ever!
00:25:25Ever!
00:25:26Ever!
00:25:27Ever!
00:25:29Ever!
00:25:30Ever!
00:25:32No!
00:25:33No!
00:25:34No!
00:25:35No!
00:25:36No!
00:25:37No!
00:25:38No!
00:25:39No!
00:25:40No!
00:25:41No!
00:25:42No!
00:25:43No!
00:25:44No!
00:25:45No!
00:25:46No!
00:25:47No!
00:25:48No!
00:25:49No!
00:25:51Don't get you up there, Bob!
00:26:02I'm not your pal.
00:26:07That wasn't very nice.
00:26:09Field trip's over.
00:26:11We need to get you and the princess to a thief house.
00:26:13No.
00:26:32How are you feeling now?
00:26:38Who the hell were they, Edward?
00:26:41They must have been sent by Marcus.
00:26:43He wants the throne that badly that he'd try and kill his own cousin.
00:26:47Try to put it out your mind.
00:26:49I can't.
00:26:51I can't stop thinking about how close they came to losing you.
00:26:55And I nearly lost you.
00:26:57You would have sacrificed yourself to save me.
00:27:02Why?
00:27:03You know why?
00:27:07Say it, Laurie.
00:27:11Say it.
00:27:13Because I love you, Edward.
00:27:18And I can't let you go.
00:27:32I love you, Edward.
00:27:34But I love you, Edward.
00:27:35You say it.
00:27:36Should ti I please enjoying your mind?
00:27:38It's the weather around me,θ¬ ΠΏΡΠΎΡΡΠΎ.
00:27:44But I do not mention a lot of stuff.
00:27:46I love you guys because I have to notice the storm by boat.
00:27:49I'm sorry.
00:28:16Did I wake you?
00:28:18Oh, wow.
00:28:19Again?
00:28:20Yeah, well, who's going to take us to breakfast, but we're not allowed to leave.
00:28:30Percy.
00:28:31So much for this being a safe room.
00:28:34Sorry, Your Highnesses, but we need to get you back to Australia right away.
00:28:37But I wanted to see Henley first.
00:28:40Yes, and I wanted to get some answers from the assassin.
00:28:42Well, that could be difficult.
00:28:43He's just been murdered in a cell.
00:28:45Someone didn't want him to talk.
00:28:48Marcus.
00:28:49I know it's not the perfect honeymoon, but we used to spend every Christmas at Oak Hall when
00:29:05I was a boy.
00:29:06It was my mother's favorite place.
00:29:07No wonder.
00:29:08It's beautiful.
00:29:10Can I help you, sir?
00:29:11I'm here to escort Prince Edward and Princess Arya on their honeymoon.
00:29:25Prince Edward is welcome.
00:29:26The lady is not.
00:29:27Excuse me?
00:29:28King's orders, Your Highness.
00:29:32He doesn't recognize her as a member of the royal family.
00:29:36King's orders, Your Highnesses...
00:29:37...!'
00:29:38...
00:29:39...
00:29:40How dare you question my wife to dismissy?
00:29:42I'll have you discharged!
00:29:43I'll deal with this.
00:29:44Let us through, you lad.
00:29:46Let us through, lad.
00:29:51That's an order.
00:29:52Your order doesn't outtrack the king's.
00:29:55Actually, in matters of security, it does.
00:29:57There's currently a threat on the lives of both the prince and the princess.
00:30:01Do you want their deaths on your conscience?
00:30:08Oh, easy.
00:30:11I'm sorry, my love.
00:30:13This is outrageous.
00:30:14Oh, believe me, this is not my first traffic fight.
00:30:17Let me show you how we resolve things the American way.
00:30:35Well, you've been about as useful as a screen door on a submarine, kid.
00:30:38You know, I like this better than the palace.
00:30:59It feels more...
00:31:01I don't know.
00:31:03Like home.
00:31:05Yeah, if your home has 23 bathrooms, 30,000 acres and a dozen horses, then sure.
00:31:11Oh, you'll love this.
00:31:14Every Christmas, we used to put a plane for the adults.
00:31:19Aw, were you Peter Pan?
00:31:21One year.
00:31:22And here is my costume from the Nutcracker.
00:31:27Oh.
00:31:28Oh.
00:31:29Oh.
00:31:32Prince Charming.
00:31:35At your service, milady.
00:31:37Oh, my hero.
00:31:44It suits you.
00:31:47Well, maybe our kids will wear these one day.
00:31:50Good practice for the real thing.
00:31:55Ah.
00:31:56Another family tradition.
00:31:59My first kill, in fact.
00:32:01Wait, you killed this stag?
00:32:07Edward, that's horrible.
00:32:10Edward, that's horrible.
00:32:13Well, no.
00:32:14It's heritage.
00:32:16There are mounts here, dating back to the 18th century.
00:32:20Oh, really?
00:32:21And did they use a guillotine to chop off their heads?
00:32:25You're being ridiculous.
00:32:27Me?
00:32:27I find it ridiculous, no barbaric, that you could butcher one of these creatures for sport.
00:32:33No, we don't butcher them.
00:32:35We have the utmost respect for our game.
00:32:38Your game.
00:32:39Your game.
00:32:40If you had respect for your game, you wouldn't call it your game.
00:32:44God, how could it have been so wrong about you?
00:32:47What does that mean?
00:32:48You're just like one of them.
00:32:50A little snob with a big gun.
00:32:53You're judging me because of my class.
00:32:56Yes.
00:32:57Killing things to impress people, it's horrible.
00:33:00Beg your pardon.
00:33:02Not now, Percy.
00:33:02Not now, Percy.
00:33:03Apologies, your highnesses.
00:33:05But I think you're going to want to see this.
00:33:10How are you feeling now, your highness?
00:33:12See for yourself.
00:33:20Edward has to face justice.
00:33:22We can't be ruled by a criminal.
00:33:24The prince is innocent until proven guilty.
00:33:27And he'll have his day in court.
00:33:31There's something else you should know about him.
00:33:33Darling?
00:33:34He called off our wedding so that he could marry an American prostitute named Ari Douglas.
00:33:42How dare they!
00:33:43How dare they!
00:33:44These people are not fit to wear the crown.
00:33:48We'd make a better king and queen than my cousin Edward and his yank, whore.
00:33:53A persuasive argument.
00:33:55Let's hope the public disagrees.
00:33:57You've not only brought this family into disrepute, Edward, but the crown itself.
00:34:07You really believe the accusations?
00:34:10Well, they tally with your reckless decision to marry this commoner.
00:34:13I'll give you one last chance to end this farce.
00:34:17Sign the annulment and we'll deny everything to the press.
00:34:24No.
00:34:26Ari is my wife.
00:34:28Now and forever.
00:34:30So be it.
00:34:33Your marriage stands.
00:34:35You honor me, father.
00:34:37I'm not only father to you.
00:34:39I'm father to this nation.
00:34:41And I will not have you jeopardize the crown.
00:34:45Xavier.
00:34:47You shall be my successor.
00:34:49And the new crown prince of Estria.
00:34:51You can't do that.
00:34:58It goes against convention, but these are unconventional times.
00:35:01No, you can't do that because I don't want it.
00:35:05It's not about what you want.
00:35:07We're at war with your cousin.
00:35:09And maybe with Lathena soon too.
00:35:12We need a show of strength.
00:35:14Giving in to Marcus's games?
00:35:16That's a show of strength?
00:35:18It wipes the slate clean.
00:35:20Xavier will be the new face of the monarchy.
00:35:24You'll marry a woman of stature and sire and heir.
00:35:31Are you blind?
00:35:36Or do you just ignore what's right in front of you?
00:35:39What are you talking about now?
00:35:41I won't marry.
00:35:44I won't have an heir.
00:35:46And I won't be king.
00:35:49Because I'm gay.
00:35:50The monarchy is above sexuality, Xavier.
00:35:57It's your crown too tight around the cranium.
00:36:00I'd rather announce all my titles than continue living this lie.
00:36:04What have I done to deserve these boys?
00:36:08You know, that's a good question.
00:36:10You have two incredible brave sons.
00:36:13But you didn't do anything to deserve them.
00:36:15No, I'm warning you, father.
00:36:17No, honestly, it's okay.
00:36:18I've got this.
00:36:20You think I'm scared of you, Maxwell?
00:36:22Well, I'm not.
00:36:24I'm just so disappointed.
00:36:26You see, I never met my dad.
00:36:29And when we first met, I thought I would finally feel what it's like to have a real father.
00:36:33And now, honestly, I wish I'd never found out.
00:36:40You say you're father to the nation.
00:36:43You're not even a good father to your own sons.
00:37:06What's this?
00:37:07Oh, that's black pudding.
00:37:10It's, um, made from blood.
00:37:13You don't have to eat it.
00:37:16No, no, no, it's fine.
00:37:17I'll try it.
00:37:20Actually, I wanted to apologize for yesterday about the stag thing.
00:37:25After our argument with your dad, I kind of, I realized how different our upbringings were.
00:37:31It wasn't fair to judge you for that.
00:37:34I appreciate that.
00:37:37And, um, what you said to him, too.
00:37:51Morning.
00:37:55The king has arranged for Princess Arie to make her first public appearance.
00:37:59What?
00:38:00He said, and I quote, um, put that girl on TV.
00:38:04She's got some fire in her belly.
00:38:05He thinks we can beat Marcus by winning over the people.
00:38:10Well, that is great news.
00:38:11He did have one stipulation.
00:38:14You're to return to the palace, ma'am, for lessons in etiquette.
00:38:16And he'll be your personal tutor.
00:38:19Princess Arie.
00:38:32Princess Arie.
00:38:33Princess Arie.
00:38:37Forgive me.
00:38:41My behavior has been unbecoming.
00:38:44Yeah, I don't really know what that means, but, um, apologies accepted.
00:38:50Estrians respect their kings, but they love their queens.
00:38:53So, we have to work on your decorum.
00:38:57Thankfully, you'll be learning from the best.
00:38:59Mm, that's not a very decorum-y thing to say, your majesty.
00:39:03The word you're looking for is decorous.
00:39:05And I'm not talking about myself.
00:39:07I'm talking about your mother-in-law.
00:39:15Christmas is a time of joy.
00:39:17Notice her posture.
00:39:19And of her.
00:39:20Her poise.
00:39:21You're straight up.
00:39:23As though you have an iron rod.
00:39:24Across the street.
00:39:25To everyone watching.
00:39:26This is your etiquette lesson, not mine.
00:39:29Repeat after.
00:39:30My husband and I would like to wish you a very merry Christmas.
00:39:37Well, you said all the words in the right order.
00:39:42What was she like?
00:39:45A lot like you.
00:39:47She had a very kind way with people.
00:39:50Her charity work was her life.
00:39:52Boys were devastated to lose her.
00:39:56And you?
00:40:01It's never been the same without her.
00:40:10She's an inspiration?
00:40:12Yes.
00:40:13Our next queen has a lot to live up to.
00:40:17Good evening.
00:40:21Tonight I'm joined by Prince Edward's new bride, Princess Ariana.
00:40:26Welcome, Your Royal Highness.
00:40:28Good evening.
00:40:30Esther was shocked to learn about your recent marriage.
00:40:32Could you tell us more about how you met Prince Edward?
00:40:35We met in my hometown of Queens.
00:40:37Edward found that very serendipitous.
00:40:40Princess Dima alerted that you were working as a prostitute there.
00:40:44No, that is not true.
00:40:46So, you are calling your fellow princess a liar?
00:40:49She was misinformed.
00:40:51To be clear, did Prince Edward ever pay you for his services?
00:40:55No, not in that way.
00:40:57So, he has paid you?
00:40:58I'd rather not discuss.
00:40:59Ma'am, the public has a right to know who their new princess really is.
00:41:04So, I would ask you again.
00:41:06Did Prince Edward ever pay you for his services?
00:41:09All right, yes.
00:41:26He paid for me.
00:41:28I was his mail order bride.
00:41:30And maybe that's just as much as scandal, but marrying Prince Edward is the best thing that I have ever done.
00:41:35My sister was fighting cancer, and I needed the money to save her.
00:41:43And he gave me that.
00:41:44But he gave me so much more.
00:41:48I'm not talking about the crown or the castles.
00:41:51I'm talking about his love.
00:41:53And his kindness.
00:41:54And his respect.
00:41:58And yes, I am calling Princess Dima a liar.
00:42:01I don't know why she wants to ruin us.
00:42:03So, maybe she's bitter because Edward didn't forgive her after she was caught cheating on him with Prince Marcus.
00:42:09You can ask her about that.
00:42:11But what I do know is Edward is a good man.
00:42:15And yes, this started out as a transaction for sure.
00:42:19I needed the money to save my sister.
00:42:21And he needed to be saved from marrying a woman that he didn't love.
00:42:25But now my sister is getting better.
00:42:27And Edward has a wife who couldn't love him more.
00:42:44It's about time you started fighting back.
00:42:48Nice performance.
00:42:50Really appealing to the old heartstrings.
00:42:52It wasn't a performance.
00:42:53Oh, it's always a performance, Princess.
00:42:57Only the people, they don't want love stories.
00:43:00They want dirt.
00:43:01That's why I'll win.
00:43:03Because I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty.
00:43:06As we discovered in New York.
00:43:08Are you referring to the assassination attempt?
00:43:12In fact, I'm the only reason you're still breathing.
00:43:14It was Athena who wanted you dead.
00:43:20But I convinced King Aithen to hold off.
00:43:24For now.
00:43:26See, he's willing to let you live so long as you...
00:43:30Give my airship to you.
00:43:32Clever boy.
00:43:34Make all the threats you want.
00:43:36I will prove my innocence in court.
00:43:41Oh, even if you are somehow able to convince my judge that Dima's the one lying,
00:43:47you won't convince her father.
00:43:49If you're found not guilty, he'll simply declare war.
00:43:54You just can't win.
00:43:56Your Highness, we're getting record engagements on our socials.
00:43:59People are going crazy for their new princess.
00:44:00Princess...
00:44:01Maybe they do want love stories after all.
00:44:15Oh, here's a good one.
00:44:17Starting a petition to rename Princess Harry the Queen of Spades.
00:44:21Because she just buried Princess Dima live on TV.
00:44:24Princess Harry is the best American import since fried chicken waffles.
00:44:32God, you don't actually eat that, do you?
00:44:35Um, your brother literally made me try a sausage made of blood.
00:44:38Fair.
00:44:47Your wife's a sensation in the nation.
00:44:50Bar, this etiquette lesson's clearly paid off.
00:44:52Speaking of, listen to this.
00:44:56Princess Harry should give this year's Christmas speech.
00:44:59King Maxwell's are as dry as my husband's turkey dinner.
00:45:02Yes, I saw that one.
00:45:05In fact, it gave me an idea.
00:45:10Ma'am, we're ready for you.
00:45:13Ready for what?
00:45:19Whenever you're ready, your hands.
00:45:22My fellow Estrians.
00:45:25You know, that feels pretty strange to say.
00:45:28I'm sure you're used to spending your Christmases with King Maxwell.
00:45:31But, surprise, you've got me this year.
00:45:35You know, my own Christmases are usually spent with my family.
00:45:39My sister, my mom, and me.
00:45:42And yet here I am, giving a speech to all of you.
00:45:45But it still feels the same.
00:45:48It feels like family.
00:45:51Because you have opened your hearts to me.
00:45:54And made me feel at home here.
00:45:56So from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
00:46:00And Merry Christmas from the palace.
00:46:02You were amazing.
00:46:09We'll upload it to your new channel tonight.
00:46:11I just wish my family was really here.
00:46:13Well, I think you'll like your present, then.
00:46:20Merry Christmas, Ari.
00:46:22Hey!
00:46:28You know, I can't believe you're actually here.
00:46:31I can't believe you're here.
00:46:32You're a goddamn princess.
00:46:35Ari, what you did for me, I could never repay you.
00:46:39Well, you're getting better as payment and half.
00:46:42Oh, cool.
00:46:44I guess you won't be needing your present, then.
00:46:46Too fast.
00:46:47I wanted to get you something to say thank you.
00:46:50It's not quite Crown Jewels level, but...
00:46:56Aw.
00:47:01Thank you, Anne.
00:47:03Where's your half?
00:47:04I don't need it.
00:47:06You already gave me a part of yourself with a transplant.
00:47:09And now you'll have a part of me, too.
00:47:12Oh, Anne.
00:47:18Ari, I know you did all this for me.
00:47:21But are you really happy here?
00:47:25I don't know.
00:47:28I guess my life is just really different now.
00:47:30I don't know.
00:47:39Edward, have you heard from your lawyers?
00:47:45They've hired a PI to look into Marcus's bribery of state officials.
00:47:49But he's covered his tracks.
00:47:55I'm not sure we can beat him.
00:47:57Ari, there's a New Year's street party tonight.
00:47:59We have to go.
00:48:00You're not well enough.
00:48:01I've been here a whole week and you haven't let me out once.
00:48:04I want to go see Estria.
00:48:05Yeah, there'll be plenty of time for that when you're better.
00:48:07But I feel fine.
00:48:08I promise.
00:48:09I...
00:48:09No, Henley.
00:48:10We're working on a strategy for Edward's trial.
00:48:12We really don't have time for this.
00:48:14She's been cooped up for months.
00:48:22Must have been tough.
00:48:30Henley?
00:48:32Henley, look, I'm really sorry.
00:48:34We can celebrate here if you like.
00:48:36Henley, please, look, I'm sorry.
00:48:38Can I come in?
00:48:39Can I come in?
00:48:44Damn it, Henley.
00:48:53Hey, have you seen this girl?
00:48:55Oh my God, Princess Ari.
00:48:57Please, please, she's missing and she's my sister, so...
00:49:01Oh yeah, she's just there doing some shots.
00:49:03What?
00:49:07What are you even doing here?
00:49:09Ari, please, enough with the grown-up boy.
00:49:11You're still in recovery and you're underage.
00:49:14I'm not in this country.
00:49:15We're going home.
00:49:16Ari, please.
00:49:17Just let me have one night.
00:49:20I never thought I'd get to see another new year.
00:49:22I knew you'd pull the cats off.
00:49:26Fine.
00:49:27But no more drinking.
00:49:28Love you, sis.
00:49:29Five, four, three, two, one.
00:49:44Happy New Year!
00:49:45Come on.
00:50:00I'm just having some fun.
00:50:02Don't you get it?
00:50:03I'm a public figure now.
00:50:04I have more important things to worry about than fun.
00:50:06Fine.
00:50:07Go back to your prince and your palace and your fancy new life.
00:50:11I'm sorry that I wanted to spend time with my sister.
00:50:15I guess she's just too important for that now.
00:50:17I'm sorry that I wanted to spend time with my sister.
00:50:18I guess she's just too important for that now.
00:50:19It's not what it looks like.
00:50:47This creep grabbed me for like half a second before I threw him off.
00:50:54I'm surprised anyone had a chance to take a photo.
00:50:58Edward, speak to me.
00:51:02Even if that is true, this is on every front page the day before my trial begins.
00:51:08Well, Dean Marcus must be behind it.
00:51:11It's another smear campaign.
00:51:14It's working.
00:51:15This will lose us to country's support just when we need it the most.
00:51:18Court is now in session.
00:51:41The prosecution may call its first witness.
00:51:43Thank you, Your Honor.
00:51:47The prosecution calls Captain Harry Percy to the stand.
00:52:00Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?
00:52:03I do.
00:52:08Captain Percy, you are Prince Edward's bodyguard, are you not?
00:52:14I am.
00:52:16You go everywhere with him, don't you?
00:52:18I do.
00:52:20Did you go with him to visit Princess Demar on the night of the assault?
00:52:24I did.
00:52:25Captain Percy, did you witness Prince Edward physically attack Princess Demar that night?
00:52:37I did.
00:52:37I just don't understand why Percy would lie.
00:52:51Yeah, I know.
00:52:52It sucks.
00:52:54He was really hot.
00:52:56I'm really not a mood hen.
00:52:58I'm sorry.
00:52:59Mari, I don't know what you want me to say.
00:53:01You mean Percy clearly worship you guys.
00:53:03I guess that human trash bag Marcus probably got to him the same way he got to the judge.
00:53:09Huh.
00:53:10What?
00:53:11The bruises.
00:53:13We know Edward didn't give them to Demar.
00:53:15Sure, it was Marcus.
00:53:16Yeah, but we always assumed they were working together, right?
00:53:21But what if Marcus was manipulating Demar?
00:53:24Forcing her to blame her injuries on Edward?
00:53:26Oh my God.
00:53:28Hen, I could kiss you right now.
00:53:30Oh, I need to go and speak to my fellow princess.
00:53:35It's judgment day for Prince Edward and his bodyguard's damning testimony can prove the deciding factor in the judge's verdict.
00:53:43And here she comes, Princess Arie.
00:53:47Just listen to those rules.
00:53:50She's of course caught up in her own adult scandal.
00:53:54And this could be as well a dark day for the world couple.
00:53:57Oh my God.
00:54:01Demar.
00:54:04What do you want?
00:54:07It's not too late to stop this.
00:54:09Why would I want to do that?
00:54:11Well, I believe it's Prince Marcus who's been hurting you.
00:54:14I'm forced you to blame it on Edward.
00:54:16We're facing another beating or worse.
00:54:18But it's okay.
00:54:19You don't have to be scared anymore.
00:54:20I can make you safe.
00:54:22Oh.
00:54:24Arie.
00:54:41It's the best joke I've ever heard.
00:54:43You poor naive girl.
00:54:49Did you really think my brain-dead fiancΓ© was behind all this?
00:54:53I just made him believe it was all his idea.
00:54:56Our affair in the throne room.
00:54:58Bribing the judge.
00:55:00I even had to force him to hit me.
00:55:02He thinks this whole charade is about winning him the throne.
00:55:06And what is it really about?
00:55:13Bringing down the piercements.
00:55:15For generations they've looked down their loises at little Athena.
00:55:20We've been invaded and attacked too many times to count.
00:55:23And yet, my father sent me here to marry your loser prince.
00:55:30So I decided to use Marcus to divide the family.
00:55:35Bring them down from the inside.
00:55:38I didn't factor Ewing, of course, but clearly I needn't have worried about Edward's dollar store princess.
00:55:43Princess, you'll soon be forgotten.
00:55:46A side note in the downfall of the Estrian royal family.
00:55:51Oh, chop chop.
00:55:54Time to hear your husband's guilty verdict.
00:55:56You won't get away with this.
00:55:57Oh, darling.
00:55:59I already have.
00:56:01Oh, here they are.
00:56:03Princess Dima, did you know that this conversation with Princess Ari was recorded and live-streamed on other social media?
00:56:14What?
00:56:15Who's the naive one now?
00:56:19You devious little bitch.
00:56:21I learned from the best.
00:56:26If you ever threaten my family again, I will put you in a box smaller than the cell that you're headed for.
00:56:33Okay.
00:56:35You all right?
00:56:36Yes, where's Edward?
00:56:38The judge has found him guilty.
00:56:43Wait!
00:56:44I have new evidence that proves that Prince Edward is innocent.
00:56:48I've already passed my judgment.
00:56:51The prince is guilty as charged.
00:56:53Well, Your Honor, I also have evidence that you were bribed into making that verdict.
00:56:58How dare you!
00:57:00Bailiff!
00:57:01Stop right there!
00:57:03This sham is over.
00:57:05You hold no authority here.
00:57:08This is the Crown Court, is it not?
00:57:10I am the living embodiment of the Crown, and I revoke your spurious guilty verdict.
00:57:16And I charge you, Prince Marcus and Princess Dima, with treason.
00:57:22Arrest them!
00:57:23You saved me again.
00:57:40Looks like Prince Charlie's not near me here or around here.
00:57:47Prince Charlie's not near me here or around here.
