00:03I'll start with a question, can people change, can they rise above their nature?
00:12Life has taught me, we emerge through fire, we transform through suffering, let me tell
00:23you my story.
00:30You are Eshbal, prince of Israel, banished to Andor by his own family, yes?
00:39Yes.
00:41Good.
00:48Are you coming?
00:50No.
01:02No.
01:08No.
01:11No.
01:12No.
01:12No.
01:18If you plan to ransom me I have disappointing news.
01:21I hold no value in my father's eyes.
01:24Perhaps I see much more than he does.
01:29Come my friend, we have no need for conflict.
01:34I am no friend of yours, or your gods.
01:37Use your lives.
01:38You learn, in time.
01:43No.
01:46No.
01:49No.
01:50No.
01:50No.
01:54No.
01:55No.
01:59No!
02:02No!
02:14Tell me, Prince. Have you ever seen an elephant?
02:22What do you want of me?
02:24Enormous, powerful creatures. But easy to tame.
02:30When they are young, you simply have to tie them to a pole by a rope.
02:35No matter how much they try, they cannot break their restraint.
02:40They resist the fight. But in time, they give up.
02:49One's grown, massive beast can be tied to the same pole by a simple string.
02:58Because it thinks of itself what it has been taught to believe.
03:06Power begins in the mind, not in the body.
03:13What do you want of me?
03:16You will suffer until you understand who you really are.
03:33I want to make you happy.
03:34No more?
03:36I want to make you happy.
03:41Three.
03:47No more.
03:49I don't want anything.
03:51Remove his bitings. He is of no threat anymore.
04:02Sit down!
04:10Drink?
04:31Why do you show me mercy now?
04:37Like the elephant, Ishval, you ceased resisting the robe that held you back.
04:44You became compliant, allowing lesser men to choose your fate.
04:53But now, it's time for you to decide your path.
05:03To decide for yourself.
05:08I am loyal to the house of my father.
05:10Saul, son of Kish. Servant of Nun.
05:19I didn't break, father.
05:22I killed my captors.
05:24Freed the other prisoners.
05:27And together we escaped.
05:30It's quite the story, Ishval.
05:34I passed through the fire, father.
05:37Do I not seem different to you?
05:40A man possesses substance by what he does, not what he says.
05:45Then allow me to earn your trust.
05:48With honesty.
05:51Before you returned in triumph, I was crowned king.
05:54By mother.
05:55We believed you had been defeated and killed.
05:58That someone had to step up and lead to what was left of our people, and so I did.
06:01You took your opportunity.
06:03To protect my queen and your legacy.
06:05And yet, neither of you spoke a word of it until now.
06:10You think I didn't hear whispers about your coronation?
06:15There are no secrets that time does not betray, Ishval.
06:21The mother would have told you in time.
06:25But I am telling you now.
06:28I have made more mistakes in my life than I care to admit.
06:31But I promise you, I wish to redeem them all.
06:36How so?
06:38The woman I defiled and was banished for.
06:43I will marry her.
06:45In accordance with the law of Moses.
06:48Ease the burden on our family and the kingdom.
06:51All for your glory.
06:53My king.
07:00David.
07:01David.
07:05I'm sorry.
07:08I don't know why he would do that.
07:10My father, he's just...
07:12I know.
07:14I don't know what to do now.
07:16I know.
07:17But you cannot give up.
07:23What are you reading?
07:25The story of Joseph.
07:27It's my favorite.
07:29Would you read it to me?
07:31Yes.
07:32Yes.
07:37And Joseph said to them,
07:39Do not be afraid.
07:43Am I in the place of God?
07:45You intended to harm me.
07:48But the Lord used it for good.
07:51To accomplish what is now being done.
07:56It's beautiful.
07:58These words, they give me hope.
08:03Hope.
08:05It would be a welcome gift right now.
08:08Have you spoken to me, Al?
08:09Not yet.
08:10I need to speak with my father.
08:13But I know all too well how that will go.
08:17Then let me speak to him.
08:19You don't know him like I do, David.
08:21He's stubborn.
08:23He doesn't listen.
08:27Why is this so difficult?
08:30We will find a way.
08:32It's like the world has conspired to hold us back.
08:36It's constantly pushing us against the current.
08:41Then we will keep swimming.
08:45Or better yet, we will change the course of the river altogether.
08:49Michal, the Lord helped me defeat the giant.
08:54I'm sure you will help me speak to your father.
08:58On my father, he will not fall so easily.
09:04What world, Avner?
09:06Samuel has escaped the city.
09:07Must have had help to get beyond the walls.
09:09We held Samuel captive.
09:11To help him.
09:13Remember the former days, yes.
09:15I have scouts urging for him.
09:17Anything more overt could have consequences.
09:19The people revere him.
09:20As do I.
09:21That old snake will slither into the grass and bite his time.
09:25Surely he will show up at the tabernacle.
09:27And there he will kiss my ring.
09:29And if he refuses.
09:30Oh, father.
09:31People will rise up.
09:33My king.
09:35Now is not the time, David.
09:36What troubles have you come?
09:38There has been a great mistake.
09:42I cannot marry Minov.
09:44When it is Michal who I love.
09:47She wants us to be together.
09:49Surely her wishes matter and my choice is...
09:52Choice!
09:52Okay.
09:53You should go now.
09:53No, no, no, Avner.
09:54Let me tell you something about choice.
09:57Men go to war and death when I order them to.
10:01I feed my people or they starve.
10:04They live free or are enslaved.
10:07Because I choose one way or the other.
10:10No one dares question the wisdom of my actions.
10:14Who give you the right?
10:16I only ask how to reconsider.
10:20Reconsider!
10:20All right.
10:21All right.
10:22That's enough.
10:24The king's gratitude is a cup not many get to drink from.
10:29Pray you not choke on it.
10:31Go.
10:42Can you believe him?
10:43Why would he do this?
10:44You know what he's like.
10:45I'm sure he has his reasons.
10:47What reasons?
10:48David loves me and I love him.
10:50Father knows this.
10:52There is no good reason why he would have David marry you.
10:57We should go.
10:58We should go.
10:58We should go and talk to him.
11:00Together.
11:00We can convince him.
11:02Get him to come to a center.
11:03Will you stop cleaning?
11:06Father has made up his mind.
11:08No.
11:08And I am the older sister so it does make sense.
11:11Meraf.
11:12Perhaps father thinks you are too soft-hearted for David.
11:16For what he needs to become.
11:19Soft-hearted?
11:19No.
11:20Relax.
11:21I didn't mean to offend.
11:23I'm sure you didn't either.
11:26Right?
11:37I cannot marry Meraf.
11:39I will not.
11:41David.
11:42You cannot let frustration distract you.
11:49Yes?
11:50That's right.
11:57You're our new commander.
11:59I'm David.
12:00Yes, yes.
12:01I know who you are.
12:02It's an honor to serve under you.
12:06Uriah.
12:08Uriah?
12:09And I...
12:11I'm O.S.
12:12O.S.
12:13Nice to meet both of you.
12:15Thank you for the end, Uriah.
12:16Don't you all have duties?
12:19There it is.
12:23You're improving.
12:24Am I?
12:25No.
12:27I was disarmed and humiliated more than a few times when I was learning.
12:31Yes.
12:32When you were a boy.
12:33Not a commander.
12:35We're all capable of becoming more.
12:39Take up your sword.
12:43Less sparring.
12:44More footwork.
12:46And balance.
12:47You see?
12:50Soldier is not just brute force.
12:53He's finesse.
12:55You try.
12:59Keep your weight low.
13:00Your feet light.
13:01With confidence.
13:03I have to trust that you deserve this.
13:05You see, my father taught me long ago.
13:08A leader must believe he's cut from that cloth.
13:11Whether it started as fine silk or wool.
13:14A king can be fashioned from either.
13:21We told you to stop.
13:22Keep moving.
13:22Again.
13:24Yes.
13:25Let it flow.
13:26Use your hips.
13:28Strong.
13:30Let's go.
13:31Again.
13:33Balance.
13:34Ah.
13:45Ready?
13:46Ah.
13:49Better.
13:57Pointing towards your enemy always.
13:58Nice.
14:01Hands forward on the same foot.
14:04Come down.
14:21Call me.
14:23Where are you?
14:34The boys are natural.
14:36Are you in the making?
14:38Yes.
14:40If he shines too bright,
14:42even a king may find himself blinded.
14:45I know what I'm doing.
14:49And yet, you invited chaos into our home,
14:52our daughters.
14:55Why must you make these decisions without discussing with me first?
15:01You're right.
15:04Part of love is trust and honesty.
15:07Husband and wife should keep no secrets from each other.
15:12Do you agree?
15:19Who told you?
15:22It doesn't matter.
15:24I was meaning to tell you myself when the time was right.
15:28And yet you did not.
15:32I understand you did what you felt you had to.
15:40But admit it.
15:43You did grieve me a bit quickly.
15:47I never have to again.
16:02My love.
16:06Never lie to me again.
16:17Supplies are low with all.
16:19We must continue this another time.
16:23Give us a few days.
16:24Yes.
16:27You summoned his father.
16:29There are many matters to be resolved.
16:31Not least is Ishbal's return.
16:33So how do we settle the dispute with Yair?
16:36Ishbal will wed Dina, the daughter of Yair, of Dan.
16:41This was my decision.
16:42The law of Moses will be respected.
16:46The kingdom will be stronger for it.
16:48You and your men will escort your brother to negotiate.
16:51Be wise and respectful.
16:54Shoya here.
16:55We take him seriously.
16:57David should lead.
17:00Yes.
17:01Teach him.
17:02A leader of man is more than just a warrior.
17:05You must also be capable of crafting peace.
17:09Thank you, my king.
17:11You have your orders.
17:19I'm really going to marry her.
17:21I thought you said she had a lumpy back.
17:23In truth, I don't remember.
17:29You have everything.
17:31Be safe.
17:40You may want to keep it close around him.
17:46Good luck on your little adventure.
17:49When you return, we can get to make arrangements.
17:53Can't let this power be the first to marry, can we?
17:56How must we go in?
18:06Hello.
18:23My queen.
18:28My queen.
18:29The king has been restored.
18:34Now is the time when magic and witchcraft must return to the shadows.
18:42I'm afraid it is not safe for you to remain here in Keper.
18:46So I am to be banished.
18:48No.
18:49No.
18:50This is not a punishment.
18:52I am protecting both of us.
18:55I owe you a debt of gratitude for your friendship and discretion.
19:06If you ever need me again, I will find you.
19:11Let's see.
19:30Let's go.
19:31Oh, my God.
20:01Oh, my God.
20:38The room has been done already.
20:41The jeweler has repaired your necklace.
20:43I was returning it.
20:47Your duties are with the princesses.
20:50See to those.
20:51Yes, my queen.
20:57I trust you've checked every corner for scorpions.
21:01Scorpions, my queen?
21:04Yes.
21:05Elusive little things.
21:08Crawling through the smallest crack.
21:11Hoping to catch their prey unaware.
21:14They must be careful to crush them.
21:17Before they can do any harm.
21:21You're hurting me.
21:34The people would celebrate a union between David and I, the princess.
21:39Why can there not be me?
21:40Even in victory, there are still wolves at my door.
21:44I need the giant killer at my sight.
21:47He is a symbol of God's faith in me.
21:49And I could make him happy.
21:52This is not about making him happy.
21:55This is about shaping him into the man I need him to become.
21:58To serve my will.
22:00But, Father...
22:00Michal, I love you with the light of a thousand stars.
22:08But your sister's right.
22:10She is the better choice.
22:14Did Mirab ask you for this?
22:17She did.
22:19It is what best serves our nation.
22:23Michal!
22:34It's not just men who climb ladders to reach their ambition.
22:40It's Betty's sisters too.
22:56How much further till then?
22:59Are you finding horse riding uncomfortable, brother?
23:03We could always arrange a donkey.
23:05For you.
23:06Or you could just walk.
23:12Your brother does not hide his jealousy well.
23:16I didn't ask to be in command of him.
23:19I just want him to think I'm worthy.
23:22Well, if you seek it from those who won't give it.
23:26It says more about you than them.
23:33So, do you know how much further till then?
23:43Make way for the princes of Israel.
23:45Jonathan and Eshbar.
23:48In what cause?
23:49An audience with your lord, here of Dan.
23:55You won't find him at his court.
23:57He's in the woods, beyond.
24:16No matter what happens, you won't lose your temper.
24:18When do I ever lose my temper, my friends?
24:25Yair of Dan.
24:27I heard the little dog was on the loose again.
24:30Come to grovel at my feet.
24:32We are here, on the orders of your king.
24:35The same king whose wife ordered her son into punishment for his sins against my house.
24:38Yet there he is.
24:40We only wish to talk.
24:41We're not talking.
24:44We're hunting.
24:45Hunting what?
24:47Wild boar.
24:49Boar is unclean.
24:51You invoke the law to me while standing beside your brother who broke it?
24:56Still, we don't eat it.
24:58But the Philistines do.
25:00And they have metal to trade for it.
25:02Brother.
25:04I offer what you first requested.
25:08A union by marriage.
25:09Of our two houses.
25:13No.
25:14I am not interested in lifting your shame.
25:19Do not turn your back on your prince.
25:23Perhaps I can speak with Dina.
25:26Ask her thoughts.
25:28When do her thoughts matter?
25:30I think you have traveled many miles for nothing.
25:34Best be on your way.
25:41Are you the one they call the giant killer?
25:44Actually, it's a giant slayer.
25:47Yes.
25:48I am David.
25:49I wonder if you're as quick with a blade as you are with a sling.
25:54Only one way to find out.
25:56Join me.
25:58I will not hunt an unclean animal.
26:01Very well.
26:03But you walk, don't you?
26:09Come.
26:10Let's hunt.
26:16Quiet now.
26:18Boars are clever animals.
26:21Dangerous too when cornered.
26:24Much like the king.
26:32No.ele.
26:43You're
26:44welcome. I'm
26:45not. Shit.
26:46No.
26:47Go.
26:49Go.
26:50Go.
26:50Go.
26:52Go.
26:52Go.
26:53Go.
27:02Dead by my blade!
27:08Dina, we have royal company here to beg for your dainty hand.
27:18You don't remember me.
27:24The king has secured the great victory.
27:27The leaders who did not support him in his hour of need, they faced consequences.
27:32Are you threatening me?
27:35We're handing you an opportunity.
27:38Marying Eshbal and Dina could prove mutually beneficial.
27:44After a war, a king has debts.
27:46What better way to pay them than lean on the wealthiest leader in all the land?
27:51And yet your mother disrespected me.
27:56Yeah, mistakes you regret, I assure you.
28:01What of you, giant slayer?
28:04What wisdom do you have for me?
28:11You spoke of disrespect before.
28:14It is a feeling I know where.
28:17From my life, so many voices telling me I was less than who I know I am.
28:23But I chose to draw strength from their words and not be wounded by them.
28:28To rise above.
28:33Well said.
28:36You could reject the king's offer and gain nothing.
28:41Or you could show strength and see what there is to gain.
28:47Surely prophet heals many wounds.
28:54Spoken like a true man of commerce.
28:57I'll be careful.
28:59This one's more of a leader than he yet realizes.
29:21You're quite handy with that.
29:26For a woman.
29:27For anyone.
29:30Were you not joining in the celebration?
29:33It was your kill, after all.
29:35That's not how my father tells it.
29:44I am sorry, Dino.
29:48For all the shame I brought upon you.
29:52Careful, Ashba.
29:56I've already gathered one pick today.
30:02I've heard the stories about how your father treats you.
30:06It wasn't the son you wanted.
30:09I'm the one enduring symbol of his failures.
30:13I want that we share.
30:18Perhaps together we could change it.
30:20I'm not marrying you, Ashba, just so you can escape the love of Moses.
30:23It would be an escape for both of us.
30:26You don't like me.
30:28Fair enough.
30:29But marriage doesn't have to be for love.
30:32Oh.
30:33Whisper in my ears, right?
30:36Dino. Dino.
30:39I'm giving you the chance at freedom from this place.
30:44Take it.
30:54I will not birth you in air.
30:57And I want to stallion, along with the King's Grace, to go hunting as much as I like.
31:02Those are my terms.
31:05Of course.
31:11Of course.
31:14And Ashba, I want to pretend to love you.
31:21They don't have it in me.
31:22They don't have it in me.
31:22They don't have it in me.
31:48They don't have it in me.
31:49No one.
31:50So just another knife for the King?
31:53A tool.
31:55For his aimless wrath.
31:57I swear enough
31:59We are a can, Avnil
32:02Blood means more than us
32:06You used to be normal
32:09Please
32:10Please, Avnil
32:15Get out of here
32:16Get out of Israel
32:18Say a word to no one
32:19I will find you and I will kill you
32:22Go
32:25Bye, Avnil
32:32Oh, my God
32:42Oh, my God
32:46Oh, my God
32:47Oh, my God
33:12More wine.
33:37It appears there's no more for you to take, sister.
34:00I'll do this, thank you.
34:06Where is your father?
34:08I'm not sure.
34:19I wish I could make things easier for you, but you all have obligations.
34:28Please, mother, I do not need one more person telling me to get over this.
34:33It's so much more than that.
34:35You saw your father before the battle?
34:37How far he has fallen.
34:40And part of his torment was of your making.
34:44Spells and witchcraft.
34:46No.
34:47They weren't even legal, but you saw fit to change that, didn't I?
34:52Why did you hear that?
34:54Achimelech.
34:54He goes...
34:56Leave us.
35:02You will never speak of this again to anyone.
35:07I know what you did, the mother, and poor Achimelech was made to transcribe your sin.
35:16One day, you will know what it feels like to make terrible decisions in order to save
35:24the ones you love.
35:26Do you care for this family?
35:31Of course I do.
35:33Then you will respect your father's decision and let this go.
35:43No.
35:51No.
35:53No.
36:03No.
36:06No.
36:07No.
36:07No.
36:08No.
36:12No.
36:23No.
36:25No.
36:35No.
36:38No.
36:39No.
36:41No.
36:42No.
36:44No.
36:45No.
36:46No.
36:49No.
36:50No.
36:53No.
36:54No.
36:55No.
36:55No.
36:56No.
37:03No.
37:04No.
37:04No.
37:11No.
37:12No.
37:13No.
37:13No.
37:14No.
37:14No.
37:14No.
37:15No.
37:15No.
37:15No.
37:16No.
37:18No.
37:18No.
37:19No.
37:20No.
37:21No.
37:22No.
37:22No.
37:24No.
37:24me. A scorpion after all. Sorry. I made a mistake. It pains me. You will not accompany me and our
37:49family to the tabernacle. Instead, you will remain in the palace and consider how you wish
37:56to carry on. All the dangers I face, I never believed you would be one. Go! Now! Kezia!
38:20You stay.
39:02What is it? Why are the guards no longer standing watch?
39:13Oh, my God!
39:25Oh, my God!
39:25Oh, my God!
39:27Oh, my God!
39:35Take charge!
39:38Take care!
39:40Take care!
40:02Ah, baby! Hold it off.
40:24Get him down!
40:35Tha-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a!
40:50Oh
41:14No!
41:52No!
42:25No!
42:44No!
42:53I think there's something wrong. My princess?
42:56My name is Sara. I'm a healer. I can help.
43:04Miral, help me.
43:07Right.
43:10Sara.
43:13Are you injured?
43:14Not this time.
43:16Then help us.
43:18Come.
43:21Who would be so bold to attack a royal convoy?
43:24They weren't Philistines.
43:25More like a band of cutthroats.
43:27With what intent?
43:29Kill a prince?
43:30Rob one of the wealthiest lords in the kingdom?
43:32Whatever they wanted.
43:35Here is the one who was dead.
43:36And with him dies your accuser, Ishba.
43:38Go.
43:39I want answers, Zavna.
43:41Otherwise allies of Yair will suspect I had something to do with this.
43:45Go.
43:46Yes, sir.
43:51My king, may I have a moment?
43:53Please, don't ask once again to marry me.
43:55Mikhail.
43:56No, my king, I come with a different request.
43:59If I am to be joined with your family,
44:02I ask that you grant me time.
44:05Like any good son, I wish my father to be here to bless my union.
44:09But he and my family are still grieving the loss of my brother, Netanel.
44:13He will be remembered with honor.
44:18More than this, I know that Mikhail and Mirab have different feelings about the marriage.
44:23And they shouldn't be rushed to accept the wisdom of your choice.
44:28And I, I need time to become a commander and prince worthy of your house.
44:36Your charm worked in Yair.
44:39But I'm not so easy.
44:42Consider this a compromise.
44:43A middle path.
44:46What I ask for is fair and compassionate.
44:50Surely a great king is both.
44:53Very well.
44:57For the sake of all, we will take time for the wedding.
45:03Thank you, my king.
45:07But know this.
45:10You still have much to learn.
45:21It's my mother's soul.
45:24Don't tell anyone.
45:27Perfect.
45:38I will let you talk.
45:42Neta.
45:46Please.
45:54I am truly sorry.
45:55We could not protect your father.
45:58But with his death, it will not be safe for you to return home.
46:04Without a male heir, other nobles in your tribe will surely claim leadership.
46:07Not a noble man amongst them.
46:09And you would be easy prey.
46:10Not so easy indeed.
46:11I, uh...
46:14I find you.
46:16No.
46:30You know...
46:33You never defied me that night.
46:38Drunk.
46:39Full of the urge.
46:41But you fell asleep at my side.
46:46But your father...
46:47That...
46:47That was his entire claim.
46:49Yes.
46:50Because he believed it happened.
46:52Even though I told him he did not.
46:56You gave him an opportunity to rid himself of me.
46:59And extort the king.
47:03Yeshbal.
47:05You owe me nothing.
47:12Wait.
47:16We owe it to ourselves then.
47:19To become more than our fathers expected.
47:22Together we can have a second chance.
47:24We marry tomorrow.
47:27Under the circumstances.
47:29We need no ceremony.
47:31This is what I offer.
47:42Can I tend to it?
47:45I've just boiled this.
47:47It's cleaner.
47:56Seems to be healing nicely.
47:57Well it was tended to by an excellent healer.
48:00Tell me.
48:03Wise.
48:05Defiant.
48:07Perhaps not properly yet seen for her value.
48:14Beautiful.
48:19I would like to meet this healer.
48:21Well you should.
48:21When...
48:25When did you decide to come?
48:28Your brother sent messengers and gifts on your behalf.
48:32Unrelenting.
48:33Really.
48:35But, in truth...
48:37I couldn't stop wondering if you'd recovered.
48:41So I thought I would see for myself.
48:43Up.
48:56Seems you have.
49:03Mostly.
49:06Not fully.
49:08That will take a great deal of time.
49:15I'm a very slow healer.
49:18And I need constant care.
49:20To be continued.
49:33I'd like to see for you.
49:36To be continued.
49:38To be continued.
49:38To be continued.
49:46To be continued.
