00:00:28X-Men
00:00:56X-Men
00:00:59Might I suggest Prince Desmond and Princess Coralina for the time being?
00:01:04Would that be amenable, Your Highness?
00:01:06Yes, excellent suggestion, Your Highness.
00:01:08Wonderful.
00:01:10Please go ahead.
00:01:10Very well, Prince Desmond.
00:01:12Would you raise your chin ever so?
00:01:18Could I possibly get a touch-up?
00:01:25Sir, I've drafted an article for the media.
00:01:29Clear, please.
00:01:32After some intros, it reads,
00:01:34The Royal Houses of the Monarchy of Vostieri and the Kingdom of Androbia
00:01:40announce the merging of their royal lines
00:01:44with the engagement of the Crown Princess Coralina Eugenia of Vostieri
00:01:49to Crown Prince Desmond Carlisle.
00:01:51Both Houses hope this joyous occasion
00:01:54will forge a path towards reunification,
00:01:57thus easing centuries-old tensions
00:01:59regarding the ownership of the Arsenian province.
00:02:03Yes, that's fine, although we should perhaps include something about the date,
00:02:06say that the wedding takes place in two months.
00:02:08Oh, and perhaps a cheerful mention of the historical and beautiful Castle Eloris,
00:02:13the location of the Naptuels.
00:02:14Both prized suggestions.
00:02:16Princess Coralina, perhaps you could move your hand into his arms
00:02:20so that we can see the Elora Alexandrite.
00:02:23Quite. May I?
00:02:26Here we go.
00:02:31Perfect.
00:02:31Perfect. I believe we have it.
00:02:53Everything all right there, Lippon?
00:02:54Never better, sir.
00:02:55Merely attending to something that was crying out to be done.
00:02:58You seem a little upset by this turn of events.
00:03:00I find this deeply offensive for two reasons, sir.
00:03:04Firstly, it is a breach of protocol of the highest order.
00:03:06And secondly, if royalty cannot be expected to hold their commitments,
00:03:10what example does that set for the rest of us?
00:03:12But here I am,
00:03:14not attending to your heartbreak after such treacherous perfidy.
00:03:18How you must feel having a fiancé so callously break off your engagement
00:03:23by eloping with a plumber?
00:03:26You must be devastated.
00:03:28As devastated as one can be about someone they've only met two and a half times, I suppose.
00:03:32How can one meet someone half a time?
00:03:34Oh, there was a video call kept freezing.
00:03:36Very awkward.
00:03:37Oh.
00:03:42Do try to keep in mind, Edwin,
00:03:44that this marriage was purely a diplomatic union
00:03:46to shore up political relations between the two countries.
00:03:49It was arranged by her grandfathers long before we were even born.
00:03:52I do worry, though,
00:03:53without the merger of the two houses where this territorial dispute might lead.
00:03:57Still, she returned the ring promptly.
00:04:00Please make sure that gets back to the royal vault.
00:04:02Of course, sir.
00:04:03And your parents are expecting you at breakfast.
00:04:05Be warned.
00:04:06Your father is not taking this as calmly as you, sir.
00:04:12Betrayal!
00:04:14Utter betrayal!
00:04:15This is an outright provocation!
00:04:17I hardly think it's up there with the killing of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, father.
00:04:21Sorry, darling.
00:04:22Who's been killed?
00:04:24A Austrian fellow, Mama of World War I.
00:04:26Oh.
00:04:27If things get worse,
00:04:29I'm sure the Vostieres could blame us for that, too.
00:04:31Although one might wonder how much this is political
00:04:34and how much this is personal.
00:04:37Moncarr.
00:04:39Were you not once friends with King Winston?
00:04:42Well, that was when we were schoolboys.
00:04:44Which seems entirely beside the point.
00:04:47His daughter has pushed us to the very brink.
00:04:51Father, it's eight o'clock in the morning.
00:04:53I entreat you to find a diplomatic solution to this
00:04:56and try to think of a plan B.
00:05:18Princess Coralina's elopement was most untimely.
00:05:22I'm not sure what we're going to do now.
00:05:25It's just too bad that our Royal Air Force consists of two helicopters and the private jet.
00:05:30We won't be going to war, Edwin, if I can help it.
00:05:35There has to be a better solution.
00:05:41Didn't Princess Coralina have a younger sister?
00:05:44I believe so, Your Highness.
00:05:47Yes, I recall now.
00:05:48Princess Beatrix.
00:05:50She dropped out of sight after some public blowback to a picture in the press.
00:05:54Oh, yes.
00:05:55Yeah, I remember that picture, actually.
00:05:57If you scroll down, you'll notice there's a great deal of commentary on her appearance.
00:06:00Shouldn't last.
00:06:01The poor child was absolutely crucified.
00:06:02No wonder she disappeared.
00:06:03It was 20 years ago now.
00:06:09Do you want me to track her down, sir?
00:06:12Arrangements for a royal wedding back underway.
00:06:16Do you know, I can't think of a better solution.
00:06:18You'll be asking her to make a great sacrifice.
00:06:21I know.
00:06:23Not as big a sacrifice as we would be asking our subjects to make
00:06:25if our fathers can't put aside centuries of grievances.
00:06:30Do it.
00:06:35Let's just hope she's not secretly dating the palace electrician.
00:06:41I'm hideous.
00:06:42Don't come in.
00:06:43I'm sure it's not that bad.
00:06:45Oh, trust me.
00:06:46It's an absolute disaster.
00:06:49I'm using my key.
00:06:51Big meeting today.
00:06:53We are so gonna land it.
00:06:55Oh, man.
00:06:56It smells awful in here.
00:06:57What happened?
00:06:58Why is it so dark?
00:07:00We need some light in this situation.
00:07:03Ah!
00:07:10Uh...
00:07:11Honey.
00:07:13I am really sorry that this is happening.
00:07:18But...
00:07:19I gave you the entire weekend to be a puddle.
00:07:22I even gave you my emergency breakup kit.
00:07:24It was an emergency.
00:07:26It was a breakup.
00:07:27It's in the name.
00:07:29I mean, Jared dumped me.
00:07:31By text.
00:07:33Ugh.
00:07:35For a reality show influencer.
00:07:39Well, I know.
00:07:41And he's a really big jerk.
00:07:44And has no idea what he lost.
00:07:46Well, what do we tell our girls?
00:07:48We are women of substance.
00:07:49And we overcome substantial challenges.
00:07:52Good girl.
00:07:53Now, I know this is bad timing, but we have that final presentation to the Brahmin League this morning.
00:07:58Yeah.
00:07:58And you know that this investment can secure our program for the next two years.
00:08:01I know.
00:08:02Yeah.
00:08:02Where's your phone?
00:08:03I need to double check the address.
00:08:04Oh, I don't exactly know where it is.
00:08:07I was afraid I'd misery dial Jared.
00:08:08So, probably between the pint of ice cream and the two boxes of milk duds.
00:08:12Okay.
00:08:13Calling it.
00:08:22Oh.
00:08:23Now I remember.
00:08:52Here.
00:08:54France fans.
00:08:54Oh.
00:08:54Same thing.
00:08:55Less forgiving.
00:09:03Uh, it's that same number calling.
00:09:05Do you want me to get it?
00:09:05I love messing with scammers.
00:09:07Oh, uh, no, you're good.
00:09:09Um, do you want to make us some coffees?
00:09:10Yeah.
00:09:11Sure.
00:09:11Okay.
00:09:15Hello?
00:09:20Who was it?
00:09:23Uh, you called it.
00:09:25Nigerian prince wants my help.
00:09:26But he works in Bitcoin now.
00:09:30Fancy.
00:09:31I'll call us an Uber.
00:09:35How long?
00:09:36Uh, it says it should be here.
00:09:38Oh.
00:09:38There.
00:09:39Okay.
00:09:43Uh, it's that guy watching us through binoculars.
00:09:48Uh.
00:09:50It's not a bird watcher.
00:09:52Yeah.
00:09:54Birding is very hip right now.
00:10:07The Allied STEM Foundation for Young Women
00:10:10not only provides vital education
00:10:12and mentoring in STEM coursework for underserved girls,
00:10:15but we also teach leadership skills through workshops
00:10:18such as emotional intelligence, communication styles, and conflict resolution.
00:10:22This generous grant from the Brahmin League would be so beneficial.
00:10:26You wouldn't just be making a difference in the lives of these young women.
00:10:30You'd be investing in the future.
00:10:38I couldn't tell if Mrs. Standish loved or hated us.
00:10:41She was as expressive as dried concrete.
00:10:44You know, she reminded me of my paternal grandmother.
00:10:46She always did this thing where she-
00:10:47Don't look, but I think that same guy is across the park.
00:10:53Which guy?
00:10:53I told you not to look.
00:10:55Chloe, out of curiosity, how many true crime documentaries did you watch this weekend?
00:10:59Maybe half of one while I was doing laundry.
00:11:01Okay, three.
00:11:03But I swear that guy followed us here.
00:11:07Okay, well let's, um, let's just turn the corner.
00:11:10Good plan.
00:11:12Hmm.
00:11:14I'll send a simple handwritten thank-you note and leave it at that.
00:11:17Ooh, breaking out the stationery.
00:11:19I like it.
00:11:19Very classy.
00:11:20Well, we just don't want her to think we're desperate.
00:11:22Aren't we desperate, though?
00:11:23No.
00:11:24We'll get it in a couple of months and we'll be desperate to taste it.
00:11:27Ha!
00:11:37Uh, I know you think I'm being paranoid, but there is a black van following us.
00:11:43No, no, don't turn around.
00:11:45Jeez, you would be the worst spy ever.
00:11:47Um, well, I'm sure there's no reason to panic just yet.
00:11:53Uh, why don't we cut through here?
00:11:55We are definitely being followed.
00:11:57I should have really, really, really paid those parking tickets.
00:12:01Oh, wait.
00:12:02It went past.
00:12:03Okay, we're good.
00:12:04We'll just, uh, cross the street up here and cut through the park to the office.
00:12:07Okay.
00:12:08Mom!
00:12:09My mom was right.
00:12:10I moved to the big city and now we're gonna end up on a date line.
00:12:13Okay, we'll just go the other way.
00:12:14Okay.
00:12:16This is real.
00:12:17We're gonna get kidnapped.
00:12:18We're murdered.
00:12:19We're kidnapped and murdered.
00:12:20Ah!
00:12:21Okay.
00:12:23I think I'm the one they want.
00:12:24You'll be fine.
00:12:25Just stay back.
00:12:26You will not get through to my friend unless you go through me first.
00:12:30Hi-yah!
00:12:34Votre Altesse Royal, nous sommes des émissaires d'Indrovia, un mission diplomatique importante.
00:12:38Huh?
00:12:39Il est de la plus haute importance pour nos deux pays que vous acceptiez de nous accompagner.
00:12:42Si je viens avec vous, et j'ai l'assurance que vous laisseriez mon ami tranquille.
00:12:47Vous avez ma parole, Votre Altesse.
00:12:48Wait, what is happening?
00:12:51It's okay.
00:12:52I just need to go with them.
00:12:55Well, I'm not letting you get kidnapped without me.
00:13:01B, what's going on?
00:13:03Uh, I'm not exactly sure.
00:13:05Votre Altesse, je vous assure, ce n'est pas un enlèvement.
00:13:08Je crème bon, merci.
00:13:09Okay, that.
00:13:11Since when do you speak French?
00:13:12Okay, there are some details I never told you about me and my family.
00:13:17You said your family was boring.
00:13:18Wait.
00:13:20Are they in the mafia?
00:13:22Have you been lying to me?
00:13:23No, they're not in the mafia, and no, I haven't lied to you.
00:13:26And yes, my family is boring, just in a very specific way.
00:13:30Like, my mother, she's...
00:13:31You said she's a housewife who does volunteer work.
00:13:34Which is true, it's just that her house is kind of a palace, and she's kind of the queen there.
00:13:41Okay, so your mom is fancy, and you guys have a big house.
00:13:45No, it's really a palace.
00:13:46Palace.
00:13:47But you said your dad was a government administrator.
00:13:49Right.
00:13:50It's just that my father is also the king of Vostieri, which is technically an administrative position.
00:14:00So you're not B. Halstead.
00:14:02No, no, I still am your best friend from sophomore year.
00:14:05It's just, my full name is Beatrix Ileana Halston von Lenmoor-Arzhaar.
00:14:11But some people refer to me as Princess Beatrix.
00:14:15That makes me the bestie of Princess Beatrix of...
00:14:20How do you pronounce her country's name again?
00:14:31Oh, thank you.
00:14:33Are you sure you're a princess, though?
00:14:36Because we like boxed wine.
00:14:38Also, we go to that discount pedicure place.
00:14:40So you don't sound like a princess.
00:14:42I took a year of intense diction classes to master your accent.
00:14:45Accent?
00:14:46I don't have an accent.
00:14:50Do I?
00:14:53Votre Altesse, pourriez-vous rester ici, s'il vous plaît.
00:15:01Wow.
00:15:02Do you think this is one of those kidnappings where we can get room service?
00:15:04We haven't actually been kidnapped.
00:15:06Oh, but when I tell the story, and I will tell the story, there will be kidnapping involved.
00:15:15Your Highness, I don't think he's the one you say that to.
00:15:18The Royal Highness, it is my honour to introduce to you Prince Desmond, Crown Prince of Androvia.
00:15:24Seriously?
00:15:28Wow.
00:15:29The Royal Highness.
00:15:33It is our great honour to make your acquaintance.
00:15:37Certainly.
00:15:38The pleasure is all ours, Your Majesty.
00:15:41May we present our companion, Miss Chloe Hargraves.
00:15:44Miss Hargraves.
00:15:45An honour to make your acquaintance as well.
00:15:47Likewise, I'm sure your gracious Majesty, sire.
00:15:50That's not a thing.
00:15:50Okay, I panicked.
00:15:51We've been trying throughout the weekend, Princess, to make contact with you through phone calls and email.
00:15:56We were inconvenient as of the weekend, and not accepting correspondence.
00:16:00Understood.
00:16:01Well then, perhaps we might confirm more privately now.
00:16:06Prince Desmond, um, since we are outnumbered, and at a political disadvantage, we would insist that our friend bear witness
00:16:14to whatever conversation shall ensue.
00:16:17Very well.
00:16:19Since the dissolution of a united Vestrovia some 300 years ago, there has been an ongoing dispute regarding rightful ownership
00:16:27of the Alcinian province and the castle Allura.
00:16:29It is our hope that Her Highness is aware of elevated tensions between Androvia and Vostieri on this matter.
00:16:36Is it the intention of His Highness to educate us on the history and situation in our own homeland?
00:16:43Well, given that Her Highness has been absent from her royal duties for some 20 years,
00:16:48one was not to presume anything about what sort of connection she may or may not have with Vostieri.
00:16:53As a matter of fact, we are fully aware of the Crown Prince's failed engagement to our sister, Coralina.
00:16:57May we offer our belated congratulations and condolences.
00:17:01How very kind of you, Your Highness.
00:17:03Although perhaps that failure is a matter best discussed with one's own sister.
00:17:07And when doing so, please do extend our heartiest congratulations on her recent nuptials.
00:17:11To a plumber, I believe.
00:17:13Indeed.
00:17:14It will be so lovely having a member of the royal family who actually has a useful skill.
00:17:18But I doubt His Majesty came all this way to discuss failed engagements.
00:17:22We can't help but wonder if there is perhaps a point to this meeting.
00:17:26Indeed there is.
00:17:27In fact, the entire point of the aforementioned failed engagement
00:17:31was to form an alliance through marriage between the ruling houses of Duvalier and Vostieri
00:17:36in the hopes that we might form a legitimate path towards a reunited Vostrovia
00:17:40and thus prevent further escalation of tensions.
00:17:43Understood.
00:17:43But since that plan did not come to fruition,
00:17:45we are loathe to consider what alternative might be proposed.
00:17:49Interesting choice of verbiage.
00:17:59Perhaps in the light of the state of this meeting,
00:18:03His Highness may prefer not to proceed.
00:18:07His Highness has very little choice.
00:18:21Since Princess Coralina was required to abdicate her claim to the throne by marrying a commoner,
00:18:27it would seem that you are now crowned princess
00:18:29and as crowned prince of Androvia.
00:18:32It is my great honor to most graciously seek your hand in marriage.
00:19:03So that happened.
00:19:04okay what is with all the accents i've known you for 20 years have you been pretending this
00:19:09whole time who's the real you this is b your best friend since college this is princess
00:19:17beatrix eliana helston von lindberg of yard of vostiery and i suppose this is me beatrix
00:19:26who is also in a bit of a pickle it must be exhausting to be all of those people just
00:19:32be you
00:19:33thank goodness besides i don't think you're in a pickle friday your boyfriend dumps you by text
00:19:38and then monday another guy flies two thousand miles to propose to you and not just any other
00:19:44guy a crown prince proposed to you best rebound ever and you turn him down cold you truly are a
00:19:50girl boss oh androvians they're so pushy and arrogant i bet it was his grandfather who came
00:19:58up with the age-old solution of intermarriage in the first place is that really the only option
00:20:02my sister says there's a summit between our two kingdoms in a few days so surely my father will
00:20:06come up with a better solution than marrying me off to some polo playing prince is there a chance
00:20:11that maybe you're judging him a little bit harshly
00:20:18look at this okay there he is looking princely and wait is that your sister she's so pretty
00:20:27right yeah i've only heard that my whole childhood sister's so pretty touched a nerve did we sorry
00:20:34but that's not the photo i'm talking about it's um it's this one this one and this one and this
00:20:42one
00:20:43okay i don't think i've actually ever seen anyone playing polo before do you remember in college when
00:20:48we vowed never to date a golf bro yeah golf well polo bros they're like a hundred times worse
00:20:54i'm sure he's the type who never shuts up about it he looks pretty cute on a horse though
00:21:01oh the vostieres they're all so pushy and arrogant one might have thought that the princess would have
00:21:07been much more appreciative given all the trouble you've gone to i mean haven't i kept a low profile
00:21:11indeed just the private jet skeletal star of 12 i've taken all the trouble to come here completely
00:21:17incognito and meet this rogue princess to offer her the only way that i can see out of a dire
00:21:22situation only to be informed that she is inconvenienced in my opinion sir when she said she must
00:21:28politely decline i didn't think she was being that polite
00:21:37then again sir it seems your father has agreed to a summit meeting with king winston
00:21:42perhaps clearer heads will prevail at last one can only hope edwin
00:22:02so
00:22:07so
00:22:08and
00:22:15so
00:22:35Witchman, it's been ages since I've seen you in person.
00:22:39And yet somehow, not long enough, you're looking so much older.
00:22:44Some of us are comfortable in our own skin.
00:22:48Speaking of your skin, I'm sure Lupinia would love the name of your plastic surgeon.
00:22:53Yohannesis, might I suggest we start with an official photograph?
00:22:58Happy to?
00:22:59Certainly.
00:23:05Might I suggest as well shaking of hands?
00:23:13Why, Winston, your handshake feels just as weak as when we were boys in boarding school.
00:23:19Would you say as weak as your economic recovery?
00:23:22Or as weak as your foreign policy?
00:23:24Well, certainly nothing could be as weak as your central bank.
00:23:30That bad, huh?
00:23:32I told Papa not to let King Richmond push his buttons.
00:23:37Papa said he's not a machine, he doesn't have buttons.
00:23:41It's never been great with metaphors.
00:23:43We are quite a literal people.
00:23:45Well, since the summit was a failure, that does leave you in a rather delicate position, Monchu.
00:23:52If you were to reconsider and accept the Prince's proposal, it might help settle things.
00:23:57Just until there could be a diplomatic solution.
00:24:00I realise I have no room to tell you what to do.
00:24:03And I'm so sorry I didn't give you any warning before my elopement.
00:24:07But it was sudden and crazy and perhaps the first unpremeditated selfish thing I've ever done.
00:24:15Are you having regrets?
00:24:16Are you kidding?
00:24:18This is the happiest I've been in my entire life.
00:24:23Je suis très content pour toi.
00:24:25I won't begrudge you that.
00:24:26I'm not thrilled by the change in my situation, but, um...
00:24:30You've allowed me to live a very private life for a very long time.
00:24:33I suppose I could reconsider and accept his proposal.
00:24:38But only in the hopes that we can come to a better solution.
00:24:40You are being most gracious about all of this.
00:24:44I just want you to know it's not lost on me, Frangine.
00:24:48I appreciate that.
00:24:51Somebody got croissants from Monaco!
00:24:54Um, I've got to go, but please give my love to Mummy and Papa, okay?
00:25:00When you used to say that your sister was a princess, I thought she was just spoiled.
00:25:04But now that I know she's an actual princess, it's kinda weird.
00:25:07Things are definitely weird. And the summit? Not a success.
00:25:10So does that mean you're reconsidering the engagement?
00:25:12I think I have to.
00:25:14Come on, what do we tell our girls?
00:25:16Once we decide what needs to be done, we do it!
00:25:20Cheers.
00:25:23You're welcome.
00:25:35Ahhhh...
00:25:36...
00:25:41Everybody's watching
00:25:48Everybody's waiting
00:25:53Greetings, Your Highness.
00:25:55Prince Desmond is momentarily detained.
00:25:58I see.
00:25:59Are we sure this isn't one of those things where I'm to be kept waiting as a subtle power play?
00:26:04Honestly, Your Highness, do you read this much into every interaction?
00:26:08Only one's this fraught.
00:26:09How refreshingly blunt you are.
00:26:11And how craftily ironic you are.
00:26:13Yeah, I don't know if this is an attempt to intimidate me or charm me.
00:26:17It is my attempt to cut through the royal double talk.
00:26:20If it's charm you're looking for, you have the wrong sister.
00:26:25Welcome.
00:26:28Would Your Highness care to join us?
00:26:30Uh, are we meeting in your bedroom?
00:26:34Oh, goodness, no.
00:26:36So, we thought we might have supper on the balcony with Your Highness.
00:26:40Indeed.
00:26:41But in the interest of direct communication, may we please stop speaking in the royal we?
00:26:49Yes, we can.
00:26:52I mean, yes, you and I can.
00:26:56Please.
00:27:12Oh, thank you.
00:27:20Oh, no, wait.
00:27:21Sorry, I'm confused.
00:27:23I was told that you had reconsidered my proposal.
00:27:26Well, yes.
00:27:27In light of the failure of the recent summit, I find myself so inclined.
00:27:30Okay.
00:27:31It's just, you surprised me.
00:27:34Um, I thought we'd go out on a date.
00:27:37I think we're a little bit beyond dating territory, aren't we?
00:27:40Yes, but just something a little more... romantic.
00:27:46Ah.
00:27:53Candles.
00:27:54The moonlight.
00:27:56Those little flowers.
00:27:58Well, this was romantic.
00:28:01Hmm.
00:28:02It's fine.
00:28:02Princess, I may be naive when it comes to affairs of the heart, but I do know enough to know
00:28:06that when a woman says something is fine, then it doesn't mean it's good.
00:28:10I did put some... thought into this.
00:28:12Yes, your waitstaffed is a lovely job.
00:28:15Now, why does that sound like a slight?
00:28:16I don't want to argue.
00:28:16It was definitely a slight.
00:28:18I just thought we could go out to a restaurant, that's all.
00:28:20A restaurant.
00:28:22I'm sorry, I'm just having trouble even picturing what that would look like.
00:28:27I suppose we could ask Edwin to put together a security detail.
00:28:30Could we, um, discuss this privately?
00:28:34By all means.
00:28:37Ah.
00:28:38Would you mind giving us a few moments?
00:28:46I'm sorry, I'm just...
00:28:48attended on so often I forget that they're even there.
00:28:51Let's run out for pizza.
00:28:52I'm sorry, Princess, I don't think you understood.
00:28:54I'm saying that we can't do that without security.
00:28:56No, I don't think you understand.
00:28:57Where does that door go?
00:28:59Um, according to the security briefing, to some service elevator, I think.
00:29:03So?
00:29:04Let's run out for pizza!
00:29:06Really?
00:29:07C-could we really do that?
00:29:09Look, in Boston I'm a nobody.
00:29:11At least until we announce our engagement.
00:29:13And I don't think anyone's up to date with princes from small European monarchies.
00:29:17Well, I have featured on some quite prominent eligible bachelor lists.
00:29:20If we scruff you up a bit, we might look like just a normal couple out for a date.
00:29:28It's just I've never really done anything like that before.
00:29:32Well, tonight might be our last chance.
00:29:47The princess and I are at a very delicate and tense stage of diplomatic negotiations.
00:29:53We'd very much like to be left alone.
00:29:55Indeed, sir.
00:29:57Alone, Edwin.
00:30:06Remember, if anyone asks, you're a PhD student.
00:30:08Why can't I just be a local Bostonian?
00:30:10Well, first, because they're called townies, and second, because you don't have sweats.
00:30:13I'll remind you that the purpose of this trip was to propose to a princess.
00:30:17I didn't think sweats would be appropriate.
00:30:18So you have sweats?
00:30:19No.
00:30:20Well, at least you know what those are, so that's encouraging.
00:30:22Oh, may I?
00:30:26There.
00:30:27Do I look like an astronomy student?
00:30:30Look at you with the backstory.
00:30:32Astronomer.
00:30:33I like it.
00:30:34Personal interest?
00:30:35I dabble.
00:30:36All right.
00:30:37Now whenever, I suppose.
00:30:38Exactly.
00:30:49Take a breath.
00:30:50We're sneaking out for pizza, not nuclear secrets.
00:30:55Where are we going, anyway?
00:30:57This place Chloe and I used to go in grad school.
00:31:00The pizza is so greasy, but it's so good, and the beer is cold.
00:31:03Oh, you like beer, right?
00:31:04Oh, yeah.
00:31:04I'll have you know that we have some excellent breweries in Antrovia, so yes, I do drink beer.
00:31:08How sheltered do you think I am?
00:31:10Two, please.
00:31:11Oh.
00:31:12Hmm.
00:31:13Cool hats.
00:31:17That looks good on you.
00:31:22Yes?
00:31:24Oh, yeah, I suppose I have to pay for this.
00:31:26Yes.
00:31:27Um, one second.
00:31:29I, uh, the thing is I don't actually have any money.
00:31:32I've never really carried a wallet before.
00:31:34And that's exactly how sheltered I think you are.
00:31:37Well, don't worry.
00:31:38Tonight's on me.
00:31:39Well, in that case, we'll take this as well.
00:31:51Thanks.
00:31:53So, going off the tether?
00:31:58Hmm.
00:32:00You know, I've never been allowed to make foolish mistakes or youthful indiscretions.
00:32:04My whole life's been so meticulously planned.
00:32:07Given my, um, polo playing, it's all orchestrated.
00:32:10Polo?
00:32:11But I've seen the pictures.
00:32:12No, it's an annual photo shoot against a green screen.
00:32:15In fact, I've fallen off so many horses that I'm expressly forbidden in the interest of protecting the royal lineage
00:32:20from being on horseback.
00:32:22But I thought Androbians were supposed to be legendary polo players.
00:32:29What's wrong?
00:32:31Nothing's wrong.
00:32:33You were right.
00:32:34This is absolutely fantastic.
00:32:42Oh, it's called bowling.
00:32:45Do you want to try it?
00:32:47Bowling, you say?
00:32:49Yeah.
00:32:50Let's give it a go.
00:32:51Okay.
00:32:57Come on, come on, come on, come on.
00:32:58Whoa!
00:32:58Whoa!
00:33:00That was good, right?
00:33:01It's been a while.
00:33:02Okay, your turn.
00:33:07Uh, you might want to step back a little bit.
00:33:11Back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back.
00:33:14And remember what I told you.
00:33:15So you pull the ball up, wind back, take a few steps, and release.
00:33:31Are you kidding?
00:33:32That was great!
00:33:34Don't leave me hanging.
00:33:35Oh yeah, that thing you do.
00:33:37Woo!
00:33:39Ow!
00:33:40Ow!
00:33:40Ow!
00:33:40Ow!
00:33:41Ow!
00:33:43Excuse me, when you knock all the things down, is that what you do?
00:33:46That you do that little dance?
00:33:48I mean, you know, it doesn't happen all the time, but when it does, you gotta celebrate.
00:33:51Mm-hmm.
00:33:52Huh.
00:33:56All righty.
00:34:03Hey!
00:34:04Well done!
00:34:07Don't leave me hanging.
00:34:09Am I picking up date night vibes?
00:34:12I know that look.
00:34:14I know that look.
00:34:15Hey, baby, come on.
00:34:16Let's buy them around?
00:34:17Oh, we just came back from our honeymoon ourselves, so stay right there.
00:34:26I've missed Draken.
00:34:27You jerk.
00:34:29You've been messing with me this whole time.
00:34:31You assumed that I didn't know what bowling was.
00:34:33You didn't say you were good at it.
00:34:34I didn't say that I wasn't, but you think that I'm hopeless and sheltered.
00:34:38I'd say this one's on you.
00:34:39Okay, maybe I had that coming.
00:34:41I don't get it.
00:34:42You don't play polo, but you're this bowling champ.
00:34:45That's completely true.
00:34:47Yes, when mechanized bowling was first invented, it became something of a sensation in Androvia.
00:34:52And my great-grandfather, who insisted that we be modern in all things, he built a two-lane alley in
00:34:57the basement of the palace.
00:34:59I discovered it when I was in my early teens.
00:35:02When my royal duties became just too much to bear, that alley became a refuge for me.
00:35:10Well, considering how good you are, you must have spent a lot of time there.
00:35:14You're not the only one who had a difficult time adjusting.
00:35:18Here we go.
00:35:26Hey, guys, do you have a car or should we drop you off someplace?
00:35:28Oh, that's so nice of you, but I think that's our Uber just pulling around now.
00:35:32Oh, well, it was really fun meeting you guys. I hope we can get together again.
00:35:36We've been trying to make more couple friends.
00:35:38We could have couple friends.
00:35:40Well, you guys have our contacts, so let's try to keep in touch.
00:35:43All right.
00:35:44Well, that's my wife. Don't mind her, she's a hugger.
00:35:48Okay, bye.
00:35:49Great to meet you.
00:35:51It was great to meet you both.
00:35:53Bye.
00:35:55This is just the night that I needed.
00:35:57I have to admit it, I can't remember the last time I had this much fun.
00:36:02Oh.
00:36:07Androvian Crown Prince unaccounted for. Kidnapping not ruled out claims personal assistant.
00:36:14I think we're in trouble.
00:36:17Where have you been, sir?
00:36:19I've been worried sick and entertaining the most dire possibilities.
00:36:22Such as what, Edmund?
00:36:24Kidnapping attempt?
00:36:25No, in fact, we just went out for a little pizza.
00:36:28Pizza can be delivered.
00:36:31This is quite unlike you, sir.
00:36:32I'm so sorry. This is my fault.
00:36:35No, it isn't.
00:36:36I went of my own free will.
00:36:38And for your information, I had rather a fantastic time.
00:36:41Well, that seems entirely beside the point.
00:36:44Well, I'll inform the king and queen that you have not been abducted, as feared.
00:36:49Now, it would seem that the best way to defuse this escalation intentions would be to announce your engagement as
00:36:57soon as possible.
00:36:58So, Princess Beatrice, you will be back here at 9am sharp for your official photo.
00:37:02I have a meeting.
00:37:03Your Highness, I realize this must all feel like a terrible inconvenience for you.
00:37:08But you were almost in the middle of an international incident this evening.
00:37:11Through no fault of her own.
00:37:13Be that as it may, we need to push things along here for the people of both your countries.
00:37:21Thank you, Your Highnesses.
00:37:24We'll send a car in the morning.
00:37:32No.
00:37:33Oh, that's ghastly, darling.
00:37:36My Cherie, you can't wear any of those.
00:37:38They'll think he's marrying an American.
00:37:40Seeing your wardrobe is making me feel quite sad, like we haven't supported you.
00:37:45Well, that was the whole point.
00:37:46I wanted to support myself.
00:37:48And I didn't mean to make you sad.
00:37:50This is supposed to be good news.
00:37:52Of course I'm pleased.
00:37:54You're doing your country a great service.
00:37:56And personally...
00:37:58I'm thrilled to have my baby closer to home.
00:38:00But I just hate to think...
00:38:02Hate to think what?
00:38:03I know how hard won your privacy has been.
00:38:06I fear we're letting you down.
00:38:10Making sacrifices for the greater good is what we do, Mama.
00:38:12You married Papa at 20.
00:38:14What was that like?
00:38:15I'll admit.
00:38:16It was quite an adjustment.
00:38:18But then again, I was raised for this sort of thing.
00:38:21You, Ma Cherie, you're educated and accomplished, but...
00:38:24I fear...
00:38:25You're unprepared.
00:38:26Well, you've supported everything I've ever done.
00:38:29So that's the best preparation I could ever hope for.
00:38:31Perhaps.
00:38:32Then again...
00:38:33We've prepared Coralina.
00:38:34And look how that turned out.
00:38:38Oh, well, I hate to cut this short, but I think my car's going to arrive any minute.
00:38:41Give my love to Papa.
00:38:42Of course.
00:38:44Okay.
00:38:44Bisou bisou.
00:38:53Right.
00:38:54Well, you won't be needing whatever's in there.
00:38:56Follow me.
00:39:33How are we progressing?
00:39:35I just worry that all of this...
00:39:38It's not me.
00:39:39Well, Your Highness, if I may, you have not been you for over two decades.
00:39:44By that I mean...
00:39:45Princess Beatrix of Faustieri.
00:39:47Now, she's in there somewhere.
00:39:49And we mean to find her.
00:39:51No matter how long it takes.
00:39:52Now, everyone, let's get this done.
00:40:30Your Highnesses.
00:40:32Can you get closer together, please?
00:40:37Can you switch sides, please?
00:40:44Could we see the Allura and Alexandrite, please?
00:41:03Oh!
00:41:05Wow!
00:41:05Oh, hello!
00:41:06Hi!
00:41:07Excuse me!
00:41:08Excuse me!
00:41:08Get out of the way!
00:41:10I think they're finally leaving.
00:41:12I'm so glad you're here.
00:41:13I'm so glad you're here.
00:41:13It's been chaos.
00:41:15I know!
00:41:16It's crazy, right?
00:41:18I kind of just missed that one guy with binoculars.
00:41:21Anyway, have you checked your work email?
00:41:22Suddenly, the Brahmin League can't wait to be in business with us.
00:41:26And you have invitations to a bunch of galas.
00:41:29Well, don't tell my mother.
00:41:30She'll send gowns.
00:41:31Ooh.
00:41:32You think she'll send me one?
00:41:33If only we could take advantage, but unfortunately there's bigger issues brewing at home.
00:41:37Now that I know that this is in your home, I've been doing some research.
00:41:42Your foreign minister has been stoking quite a bit of nationalistic fervor.
00:41:45Which seems ironic, considering the fact that the Androvians and Vostieres used to be one big country originally.
00:41:53So it's sort of like the Capulets and the Montagues, or Ewing and Barnes.
00:41:58But if they were one big country originally, then why did they separate?
00:42:01Well, it was 300 years ago. The king died without a clear heir.
00:42:04Two families laid claim to the throne, and it created this big mess which eventually divided the countries.
00:42:09So now, in order to calm the rhetoric, Desmond and I have to turn on the charm offensive.
00:42:17His jet leaves for Androvia tomorrow night.
00:42:19So, clear your schedule and pack your bags.
00:42:23You want me to come with you?
00:42:24No.
00:42:26I need you to come with me.
00:42:28I feel like things are about to get very weird.
00:42:30I need someone I can trust in my corner.
00:42:32And I can't think of anyone else I'd rather have as my maid of honor.
00:42:37Seriously?
00:42:38I'd be so honored!
00:42:40Yay!
00:42:41Are we off for the trip?
00:42:43In a scarf and big Jackie O sunglasses.
00:42:46Okay.
00:42:56Oh.
00:42:57Hi.
00:42:58Miss Hargraves.
00:43:00With a pleasure.
00:43:01I heard you were joining us.
00:43:03I sure am.
00:43:04It's hard to imagine flying without putting my shoes in a tub first.
00:43:07Indeed.
00:43:09Hello Edwin.
00:43:09Your Highness.
00:43:11Ah.
00:43:12This will not do.
00:43:13This you might find a little more appropriate.
00:43:15Oh.
00:43:16That looks a bit much for travel.
00:43:18And the Androvian jet awaits us.
00:43:20Do you think it's as posh as we see in magazines?
00:43:22I love free food.
00:43:24We have all amenities on board.
00:43:25Food service, chilled champagne, and in-flight TV.
00:43:28In fact, His Highness has asked that we screen his favorite film this evening.
00:43:32The Big Lebowski.
00:43:33Huh.
00:43:34That tracks.
00:43:36The dude abides.
00:43:40Indeed he does.
00:43:46Just give us your best, My Highness, and Hightail for the van.
00:43:51Come on.
00:43:52Yes.
00:43:53Very good.
00:43:54Oh!
00:43:59Hello.
00:44:00Hi.
00:44:01Hi.
00:44:01Hi, babe.
00:44:02Hi.
00:44:05Hi.
00:44:07Hi.
00:44:08Hi.
00:44:11Hi.
00:44:13Hi.
00:44:18Hi.
00:44:19I think you might be wrong
00:44:21I wanna have a good time
00:44:24Give it, give it, give it, give it
00:44:26Give it, give it, give it
00:44:29Wow
00:44:31Morning, he got it
00:44:39Your Majesty's
00:44:41Might I present my fiancée
00:44:43Mrs. Beatrix, Eliana, Holston, von Lindemann, O'Jard
00:44:48of Ostieri.
00:44:50In Princess, might I introduce the Royal Family of Androvia,
00:44:53my father, King Richmond,
00:44:55and my mother, Queen Lupinia.
00:44:58It's a pleasure to make your acquaintances.
00:45:00You're quite a bit taller than the other one.
00:45:02Yes, Your Majesty.
00:45:04My apologies for that.
00:45:09Hmm.
00:45:17Oh, that's quite all right.
00:45:18You don't need to unpack for me.
00:45:24Okay, please proceed.
00:45:31You know, there is a nice lady unpacking my underwear
00:45:34into a lavender-scented tissue paper drawer.
00:45:37I thought we were only staying one night.
00:45:38Well, we're supposed to do a tour of Castle of Lourdes.
00:45:41Oh.
00:45:42Oh.
00:45:43Oh, okay.
00:45:46Your Highness.
00:45:48Miss Hargraves.
00:45:49In an effort to win over Androvians,
00:45:52we planned a photo op for an hour from now.
00:45:54It will be very simple.
00:45:56You and the Prince will go out the front entry of the palace,
00:45:59descend the steps,
00:46:00and wave to a select group of locals and photographers
00:46:03who will be gathered outside of the gate.
00:46:05Then you will return to the palace.
00:46:08Easy as that.
00:46:09Should we perhaps go outside the gate
00:46:11and greet them personally?
00:46:12Goodness, no.
00:46:13We merely want them to get a look at you.
00:46:15We've timed it so the sun
00:46:16will be perfect for your angular...
00:46:20angles.
00:46:21But no selfies,
00:46:22and there will be no tabloid photographers there.
00:46:25You will wear these,
00:46:27and this will be the gown you're wearing.
00:46:30That looks a tad long.
00:46:33There won't be time for a proper hem.
00:46:35We'll get a seamstress to pop in a couple of stitches
00:46:38and hope for the best.
00:46:38All right?
00:46:44Whoa.
00:46:45Whoa.
00:46:45He's like Cinderella's fairy godmother.
00:46:47If she didn't like Cinderella in the least.
00:46:50Hmm.
00:46:50Mm-hmm.
00:47:04Oh!
00:47:05Uh?
00:47:05Oh!
00:47:07So much.
00:47:07No offense.
00:47:0810,000.ツー
00:47:14ツー
00:47:14punto ツー
00:47:15graphic
00:47:16ツーパいい
00:47:17ツー
00:47:21it's like being 13 all over again except this time i'm a meme that will last forever
00:47:26hey what do we tell our girls you are the author of your own story don't let others control your
00:47:35narrative oh i'm sorry i'm jet lagged and i didn't expect tagging along with royalty to be so tiring
00:47:43also that bit in there is calling my name did you know those sheets are hand stitched by
00:47:49italian nuns who are selected for their tiny hands i looked it up okay you go get some sleep
00:47:55and remember we'll laugh about this in the morning well i hope so bye
00:48:25you
00:48:50Can I help you something, lass?
00:48:51Just, we're not supposed to have visitors this late in the kitchen.
00:48:55Oh, sorry to bother.
00:48:56I couldn't sleep and I thought maybe a cup of chamomile tea might help.
00:48:59Ah, you must be the American friend of the princess.
00:49:01You could have just rung down for it.
00:49:03Actually, I'm the princess friend of the American.
00:49:08Oh, I didn't recognise you, your highness.
00:49:11Well, you must have missed today's latest internet story.
00:49:14Don't worry about those photos.
00:49:16Come on.
00:49:18Oh, you're in luck.
00:49:19Kettle's still hot.
00:49:26You know, when I married my Humphrey, I didn't eat for days.
00:49:30And by the time the priests were giving us our vows, I fainted away.
00:49:34Full garter over gums right off the altar.
00:49:37Humphrey couldn't find the top off me for all the tulle.
00:49:41But by the time reception were in full swing, even I were laughing at it.
00:49:46And I think it's good for the people to see that royals are human too.
00:49:50If anyone's asking my opinion.
00:49:53Oh, sorry.
00:49:57How can I help you, your highness?
00:50:00Straight away, your highness.
00:50:02Kettle's just boiled.
00:50:05Would you allow me to take it?
00:50:07We can't have a princess going about like a kitchen maid.
00:50:10Oh, no one will mind.
00:50:11And I am his fiancée after all.
00:50:15Well, against me better judgment, I don't suppose it could hurt.
00:50:22Enter.
00:50:30You can just set my tea on the side table then.
00:50:34By all means, your highness.
00:50:37What do you do in my bedroom?
00:50:39What?
00:50:39So it's okay for your kitchen maid to see you in your pyjamas, but not your own fiancée?
00:50:43No, it's just, you startled me.
00:50:45I wasn't expecting you.
00:50:47Why are you delivering my tea?
00:50:49Well, I too couldn't sleep, so I impose myself on your kitchen staff.
00:50:54Ah.
00:50:55And you managed to make it up the stairs all right without falling over?
00:51:01Why couldn't you sleep?
00:51:03I'm just trying to take my mind off the lurking suspicion that responsibility for de-escalating
00:51:08this situation seems to have fallen entirely on our shoulders.
00:51:12I know.
00:51:13Well, there's a book I can give you called Economies of Conflict, which might explain why.
00:51:18I've read that book.
00:51:20Yeah, I thought it was quite good.
00:51:22You didn't tell me why you were not sleeping.
00:51:24I'm making a mess of things.
00:51:26No, you're not.
00:51:27This is how it's always been for me.
00:51:29Always a little...
00:51:31off.
00:51:32I'm trying to be better.
00:51:35Less how I am, naturally.
00:51:37I wish you wouldn't.
00:51:39I like you just how you are.
00:51:42You should teach a class on authenticity at Princess School.
00:51:45You laugh, but that is part of the leadership program at my foundation.
00:51:49Yes, I heard about that.
00:51:50Girls in STEM, isn't it?
00:51:52Mm-hmm.
00:51:53Tell me about it.
00:51:54Okay, Your Highness.
00:51:57But...
00:52:00Just remember, you asked.
00:52:03Consider, if you will, the messages we send our children.
00:52:07Throughout history, only half the population has ever been invited to adventure, explore,
00:52:12and engage in the world.
00:52:14Half the time actively creating issues in their wake.
00:52:17You mean men like our grandfathers?
00:52:19Precisely.
00:52:21Now consider the stories we tell our girls.
00:52:25It's usually some put-upon princess forced to marry a dull prince.
00:52:29I'm not sure how I feel about that description.
00:52:33My point is, the story usually ends at her marriage, never to be spoken of again.
00:52:40But what if the princess was prepared to think not just about her advantageous marriage,
00:52:46but the problems facing her society and their possible solutions?
00:52:51Princess being metaphorical in our case, of course.
00:52:53In Chloe's case.
00:52:54Yes.
00:52:56So we opened it up to any girl who had the mind for it.
00:53:00We gave them the opportunity, the access, the tools,
00:53:03so we can reframe the narrative for the future.
00:53:06Interesting.
00:53:07Right?
00:53:08Wait, which part?
00:53:10The part where you, an actual princess,
00:53:13are forced to marry a prince.
00:53:15Because that's what princesses do when they're faced with problems in their societies.
00:53:20Except, um, this prince isn't very dull.
00:53:43Ready for this?
00:53:45Yep.
00:53:46Ready for this?
00:54:27Is everything all right?
00:54:29I'm just doing what you suggested and being authentically myself.
00:54:36Hi.
00:54:38Hello.
00:54:39Hello.
00:54:39Hi, thanks for coming.
00:54:41Lovely to meet you.
00:54:42Mrs. Vickley, can I take a selfie?
00:54:43Oh, of course, yes.
00:54:45Should we take a selfie?
00:54:46Oh, yeah.
00:54:51You're welcome.
00:54:52Oh.
00:54:57Hello there.
00:54:59Thank you so much.
00:55:01Oh, that's beautiful.
00:55:05Your Highness,
00:55:07the Bostiaries have arrived early.
00:55:09There's already some snutter about
00:55:10about which family gets the room with the sons.
00:55:12Can you and the princess please return to the castle
00:55:14before things escalate?
00:55:16Right.
00:55:16Goodbye, everyone.
00:55:29See you at dinner.
00:55:36Ready to meet my family?
00:55:38I can't wait.
00:55:39Don't get too excited.
00:55:40My Cherie.
00:55:41Hello.
00:55:42You're here.
00:55:43Well, I'm just so glad to finally see you, my darling.
00:55:47I was afraid those awful Androvians
00:55:48had taken you hostage
00:55:50and were keeping you from your loving family.
00:55:54Darling,
00:55:55what have you been doing to your hair?
00:55:57I love it.
00:55:58Oh, well,
00:55:58it's not as perfect as my chuchu.
00:56:00Oh, stop.
00:56:01Don't even get me started.
00:56:02I am a wreck.
00:56:04Ah,
00:56:05but please allow me to introduce you to my husband.
00:56:13You must be...
00:56:15I am the plumber, yes.
00:56:17But you can call me Cody.
00:56:18I've been looking forward to meeting you.
00:56:20I've only got two brothers,
00:56:22so it will delight me to have you as a sister.
00:56:24How lovely.
00:56:25May I introduce Miss Chloe Hargraves,
00:56:28my friend and foundation partner?
00:56:29Such a pleasure to be joined by another commoner.
00:56:32We should form an alliance,
00:56:33you and I, no?
00:56:36I get it now.
00:56:38Right?
00:56:56What a surprise it was upon hearing about your early arrival here.
00:57:00I'm sure you know what it's like
00:57:02to suddenly crave the fresh air of the mountains,
00:57:05especially since your capital is a seaport
00:57:07and does smell so of fish.
00:57:09Unlike your capital,
00:57:10which smells of old cheese and disappointment.
00:57:14Your majesties,
00:57:16may we invite you to proceed to the dining hall?
00:57:19All right.
00:57:21Smell.
00:57:23Prince Desmond,
00:57:24any comment on your second engagement in two months?
00:57:28I need to say that I'm entirely delighted
00:57:30by the circumstances
00:57:32that have brought Princess Beatrix and I together.
00:57:34And, Princess Beatrix,
00:57:35any comments on the fact
00:57:37that your approval ratings in Androvia
00:57:39have gone up 73%, has it?
00:57:44I'm afraid things have been quite topsy-turvy lately,
00:57:47so I wasn't aware.
00:57:49Your Highness.
00:57:56Princess!
00:57:58Princess!
00:57:58Princess!
00:57:59Princess!
00:57:59Princess!
00:57:59Princess!
00:58:00Princess Coralina,
00:58:01are you at all disappointed
00:58:02that you're sacrificing becoming queen
00:58:04by marrying a commoner?
00:58:05Well, real love is never a sacrifice.
00:58:18Uh, excuse me,
00:58:19are you a member of one of the families?
00:58:21No, I'm Chloe.
00:58:22I'm the best friend of the bride.
00:58:23What about a...
00:58:25Miss Hargraves,
00:58:27at the risk of appearing chivalrous,
00:58:29might I escort you inside?
00:58:31Will this start a rumor that we're dating?
00:58:34Perish the thought.
00:58:44Did you hear him?
00:58:47The nerve,
00:58:48implying that simply because
00:58:50our beautiful capital
00:58:51is also a seaport,
00:58:53that it smells like fish.
00:58:56Absurd.
00:58:57Of course, dear.
00:58:59But then again,
00:59:00you don't stray that far from the palace.
00:59:03But I get out and about
00:59:04with my charity work at times,
00:59:06and I dare say
00:59:07the docks on the far side of the harbor,
00:59:09well,
00:59:10they do have a certain
00:59:13aromatic quality.
00:59:15Oh, darling.
00:59:17Do try the brie.
00:59:21It's exquisite.
00:59:25Oh.
00:59:27Faustiarian cheese.
00:59:30Some of the best in the world.
00:59:33Mmm.
00:59:34Look at him down there.
00:59:36So smug.
00:59:37Cheese and disappointment.
00:59:39He's the one who'd know
00:59:40what disappointment smells like.
00:59:42Darling,
00:59:43with all your fretting,
00:59:44you're letting your ceviche get cold.
00:59:46Ceviche is always cold, Mama.
00:59:49You're right.
00:59:50Which one do I mean?
00:59:51Oh, I don't know offhand,
00:59:52but you really must try it.
00:59:53It's quite delicious.
00:59:55I do hope after the wedding,
00:59:58we'll get more Androvian seafood.
01:00:02How are you adjusting
01:00:03till you return to public life?
01:00:05Now, perhaps I can relate on
01:00:07a small level.
01:00:09Until I married your sister,
01:00:11unless water was spraying from a faucet,
01:00:13no one cared what I did.
01:00:16I must say,
01:00:17it's been quite disorienting.
01:00:18I'm not used to being fussed over.
01:00:20It's all this poking and prodding
01:00:22and focus on my appearance,
01:00:23which takes on getting used to.
01:00:25Perhaps I can sympathize.
01:00:27I have found it a little
01:00:28unsettling for myself also.
01:00:31The work I do is with my hands,
01:00:33not my face.
01:00:34Why should this matter?
01:00:35Oh, it matters.
01:00:36Right?
01:00:49I suppose that dinner
01:00:50went as well as expected.
01:00:52Well, at least no one
01:00:52threw anything.
01:00:54Small blessings, right?
01:00:56I just hope the wedding
01:00:57goes half as well.
01:00:58It will.
01:01:00Oh, girl.
01:01:02You always beat me at this game.
01:01:04I don't even know why I try.
01:01:05Here, just take the whole deck.
01:01:07Take it.
01:01:08I am going to go
01:01:09and instastop Cody.
01:01:10See if he has any brothers.
01:01:11Good luck.
01:01:13Nighty night.
01:01:14Night.
01:01:35Bye.
01:01:43Bye.
01:01:46Bye.
01:01:48Bye.
01:01:49Bye.
01:01:50Bye.
01:01:51Bye.
01:01:53Bye.
01:01:53Bye.
01:01:54Bye.
01:01:54Bye.
01:01:54Bye.
01:01:54Bye.
01:01:55Bye.
01:01:55Bye.
01:01:55Bye.
01:01:56Bye.
01:01:56Bye.
01:01:56Bye.
01:01:59Bye.
01:02:00Bye.
01:02:01Bye.
01:02:22I have to stop these late-night rendezvous or else people will start to talk and they
01:02:27have to get married can you imagine I want to show you something you know I don't wish to alarm
01:02:37you
01:02:37but when I was a boy I heard a tale that this tower was haunted by my great-great-great
01:02:44-grandmother
01:02:44Gertrude who died here rather than surrender it to your lot fosterries well I was told the ghost was
01:02:51a distant cousin who died defending it from the Androvians you don't suppose that perhaps our
01:02:58educations were skewed in such a way as to paint in a more favorable light our respective families do
01:03:04you what are you implying that it wasn't entirely true when I was told the Vossieris basically
01:03:08invented civilization just speculating did you hear that where are you taking me you'll see
01:03:22yeah no but actually what
01:03:33this is what I wanted to show you
01:03:39wow how did you know about it well for a while as a girl I would obsess over the schematics
01:03:45of all
01:03:45the castles certain that I would find a secret passage leading to hidden treasure unfortunately
01:03:51I never thought to look for hidden bowling alley
01:04:02who knows what we'll see but you once told me that you wanted to study astronomy
01:04:10wait it's early August did you bring me here to see the besides tonight the meteor shower is supposed
01:04:18to peak brilliant brilliant there's one look there's another one I can't tell if you're just
01:04:36indulging me or you genuinely get excited every time you see another one surely you've seen shooting stars before
01:04:41of course I have
01:04:43it doesn't matter if you've seen a hundred thousand of them
01:04:47doesn't mean that each one can't have its own unique beauty
01:04:55I imagine that's what it's like to be in love
01:04:59it doesn't matter if you've been with someone for years
01:05:01your heart still skips feet every time they walk in the room
01:05:06imagine
01:05:07you make it sound like you've never been in love before
01:05:10I don't suppose I have
01:05:14not really
01:05:15of course there was an infatuation or two at university but
01:05:20the engagement
01:05:22I was betrothed to your sister before I even knew what a crush was
01:05:35I'm actually really sorry that didn't work out
01:05:39I'm also really sorry you had to settle for the spare
01:05:43my sister certainly would never trip over her hem
01:05:47in fact she's
01:05:48much better suited to all the required pageantry than I am
01:05:52I can't say I'm disappointed
01:06:00they also don't think your sister would ever remember some throw away comment about astronomy
01:06:05bring me, bring me up on this roof to see you there
01:06:15oh, look at that one
01:06:39Desmond
01:06:39Desmond, wake up
01:06:41there's five more minutes
01:06:42this is the nicest sleep I've had for weeks
01:06:44knowing Edwin is probably already alerted the authorities
01:06:46I've done something nefarious to you
01:06:48let's hope nobody's noticed we've gone
01:06:50yes, let's hope
01:06:55allow me to help you with that
01:07:06it's stuck
01:07:08we're trapped up here
01:07:09what?
01:07:10what are we going to do?
01:07:12ah
01:07:13just kidding
01:07:14imagine how awkward that would have been though
01:07:15oh, you're evil
01:07:16my heart's stopped
01:07:24where have you two been?
01:07:25we've had the entire staff looking for you
01:07:27yes, actually Edwin
01:07:29the thing about that is that
01:07:29no, I'm sorry
01:07:30it's my fault
01:07:31again
01:07:32your highness, you appear to be becoming a bad influence
01:07:34Edwin
01:07:35I will remind you that you're speaking to your future queen
01:07:38apologies, your highness
01:07:39but your official pre-nuptial luncheon starts in less than three hours
01:07:43thus there is a team of stylists awaiting for you in your quarters
01:07:46I assumed this wedding was more about politics than presentation
01:07:50might I remind her highness that presentation is politics
01:08:07the entire Ancillium province was clearly ceded to Androvia in the Treaty of 1628
01:08:14that was a treaty that was never ratified
01:08:17even within Androvia that treaty was widely dismissed
01:08:20oh, you're an expert on Androvian history now
01:08:23it's a moot point to even try and bring that up
01:08:26since the joint occupancy accord agreed to in 1923
01:08:31set up a 99 year mutual tenancy which would have superseded it
01:08:35that was most graciously proposed by my own grandfather
01:08:39so I think I would know about the accord of 1923
01:08:43then you would also know about the underlying agreement
01:08:46that upon the accord's expiration ownership would revert to vostieri
01:08:52nonsense there was never an underlying agreement
01:08:55that is pure fiction
01:08:57the only fiction going on here
01:08:58is that we're supposed to believe that's your real hair
01:09:01or is the real fiction your waistline
01:09:04how much spandex are you strapped into?
01:09:10that's my girl
01:09:11darling
01:09:11that's not very ladylike
01:09:14well something had to be done mother
01:09:17with all due respect
01:09:18what was supposed to be a purely ceremonial luncheon
01:09:21has yet again devolved into another failed summit
01:09:24now, if you would allow me
01:09:26I believe I have a way through this
01:09:29Chloe
01:09:29we're doing a conflict resolution workshop
01:09:31awesome
01:09:32this seems entirely irregular
01:09:34father please
01:09:35these outdated treaties
01:09:37that the two of you have been fighting over
01:09:38have done neither of our countries any good at all
01:09:39have they?
01:09:40your majesties have both been given ample opportunity
01:09:42to find a solution and you haven't been able to
01:09:44so, might I suggest
01:09:46that the crown princess has given the opportunity
01:09:48to provide some much needed fresh perspective
01:09:50Beatrix dear
01:09:51this is really not the appropriate time
01:09:54Papa, darling
01:09:55this is what Bea does
01:09:57if you could all just let her speak
01:10:00I think you'll find we have a rather gifted diplomat
01:10:02amongst us
01:10:04thank you
01:10:05you've got this
01:10:09can we get a white board in here?
01:10:10I think we can all agree
01:10:11we'd like to resolve this matter
01:10:13and find a permanent solution
01:10:14not kick it down the road
01:10:16like your grandparents did
01:10:17right, right
01:10:19excuse me dear
01:10:20which word are we trying to come up with?
01:10:23there's not a right or a wrong word
01:10:24it's just that you each have to use the letter you have
01:10:27to make a word
01:10:28in this situation
01:10:29what would a win look like to you?
01:10:31not ever having to deal with this problem
01:10:33for the rest of my life
01:10:34okay
01:10:34i'll put that down as a win
01:10:36okay queens
01:10:37let's do a trust fall
01:10:37i'd like you to stand in front
01:10:40like this
01:10:41and P for palace
01:10:42and you're just going to fall back and trust
01:10:45that my mum is going to catch you
01:10:47K for king
01:10:49service
01:10:52bird
01:10:52bird
01:10:53i'm slightly worried that our liveries might clash
01:10:56Edwin, please
01:10:57bull
01:11:02queens
01:11:06i know you two went to boarding school together
01:11:08king richmond
01:11:09i don't want you to think about it
01:11:11i want you to just blurt out a word that comes to mind
01:11:14of when you first met my father
01:11:16i suppose inspiring
01:11:18did you say inspiring?
01:11:20first word that came to mind
01:11:21why do you think that is?
01:11:23i was eleven years old
01:11:25i was
01:11:27fairly sheltered
01:11:28and suddenly i was
01:11:29shipped off to a swiss boarding school
01:11:32which was supposed to make a man out of me
01:11:34admittedly
01:11:35i was terrified
01:11:37but then i met
01:11:38Winston
01:11:40he was a year older
01:11:41he seemed to be the only boy there
01:11:44who could truly understand my position
01:11:47he inspired me that
01:11:48i could make my way there
01:11:52father
01:11:53great word
01:11:54inspiring
01:11:56father
01:11:58what word comes to mind of when you first met king richmond?
01:12:02i suppose
01:12:05comrade
01:12:05it was awkward
01:12:07with the other boys
01:12:08given my royal standing i felt quite isolated
01:12:11so when richmond arrived
01:12:14i finally felt like i had a comrade
01:12:17someone i could confide in
01:12:19and team up with as it were
01:12:22we did make quite a team didn't we then?
01:12:25we did indeed
01:12:26do you remember the water tower adventure?
01:12:30do i?
01:12:31i commissioned a painting of that very water tower
01:12:34it hangs in my personal study
01:12:36so how did it go from that
01:12:38to this
01:12:39current animosity?
01:12:41when i graduated
01:12:42my father told me i had to put all that behind me
01:12:44and be a true leader
01:12:46he drilled into me that the androvians
01:12:49or basically anyone on the other side of any border
01:12:53can't be trusted
01:12:56and do you think that mistrust has been a win for either of you?
01:13:08good evening ladies and gentlemen
01:13:10i am very pleased and frankly a little surprised
01:13:14to announce that after a private meeting this afternoon
01:13:18king richmond and king winston have come to an agreement
01:13:21which would establish a mutual shared occupancy of the alcinian province
01:13:27overseen by an independent council made up of appointees from both countries
01:13:32any questions?
01:13:38with our signatures we enact the new treaty
01:13:43we also announce a new free trade agreement between our two countries
01:13:47which will benefit both economies
01:13:53and as an added benefit
01:13:55my son is not forced into a marriage of convenience
01:14:00my daughter does not have to marry a man
01:14:02she barely knows
01:14:09and with that
01:14:10i return this token of your affection
01:14:14and i accept this ring
01:14:15and release you from your engagement to me
01:14:21excellent
01:14:22well
01:14:23ah
01:14:23thank you very much
01:14:25thank you
01:14:27well it all went mother well

01:14:47to be able to go back to your old life in boston
01:14:49well
01:14:50you sort of blew my cover there
01:14:51so it's not exactly going to be the same
01:14:54but having a higher profile is already benefiting foundation
01:14:57and all of this has taught me a new meaning of public service
01:15:00a princess for the people
01:15:02sounds like a great story to teach children
01:15:07I truly hope the next time you give that to someone
01:15:09it's not out of political expediency but
01:15:14because you're really in love
01:15:17we hope for the best
01:15:26princess Beatrix Faustieri
01:15:33it has been our pleasure to have met you
01:15:39we feel it has been an honor

01:16:21me?
01:16:23yeah good

01:16:32you're right
01:16:34this is stupid
01:16:36sorry that's great news
01:16:37except here I am just staring at my hand
01:16:41is there something wrong with it?
01:16:43okay fine I didn't even like the ring anyway
01:16:46it was too big and gaudy and totally not my style
01:16:50and yet your hand sort of looks empty without it now
01:16:54and that's stupid right?
01:16:56no it's not stupid
01:16:59especially because this isn't about the ring is it?
01:17:03I've only known him a couple of weeks
01:17:06what I'm feeling can't be real right?
01:17:08honey it doesn't matter if it's a few weeks or months or years
01:17:11if it's real it's real
01:17:13did you tell him how you feel?
01:17:15no
01:17:17he seemed relieved
01:17:19so I acted relieved
01:17:22it's too late now
01:17:23now he's gone

01:19:25but there's something that I have to do now that's just for myself.
01:19:28Son, this is craziness!
01:19:30At the very least we can send Edward and Security with you for whatever you have to do…
01:19:33No father!

01:21:17Let's go.
01:21:49What are you doing? Where's your security thing, Ted?
01:21:51I gave them the slip like you taught me.
01:21:53Oh, God. I need to invest in some sweats.
01:21:56These are not the right shoes for this.
01:21:58What are you doing here?
01:22:03Those things I said last night.
01:22:05Last night?
01:22:06Look, I said that we dodged a bullet.
01:22:09But the truth is, I don't particularly want to dodge that bullet.
01:22:12You don't?
01:22:13No. And perhaps this is crazy.
01:22:15Like your father said, we hardly know each other.
01:22:17But I've never felt this way before.
01:22:19I'm completely in love with you.
01:22:23I feel the same way.
01:22:26I think.
01:22:27I still have it.
01:22:28What are you doing?
01:22:34I'm asking this, not because I'm the prince and you're the princess and it's our duty.
01:22:40But because I, Desmond, I'm truly in love with you, Beatrix.
01:22:45Will you marry me?
01:22:48I will marry you for exactly that reason.
01:23:11I will marry you for exactly that reason.
01:23:34You know, you could change your shirt this season.
01:23:38Huh, no way.
01:23:39This is my favorite shirt.
01:23:40Even if I take this off.
01:23:42The Bruins will lose.
01:23:43You know that, right?
01:23:44Yeah.
01:23:46Hey, what's this fancy looking envelope?
01:23:50Wait.
01:23:51Are these airline tickets?
01:23:53First class.
01:23:54Is this a joke?
01:23:55Hold on, let me see the card.
01:23:58Oh, there's a note written in it.
01:24:01Dear Rooster and Alice, you did say you wanted a couple friends.
01:24:05What?
01:24:08Shut up.
01:24:10These are our friends from the bowling alley.
01:24:13Are you freaking kidding me?
01:24:17What have we done?
01:24:18What kind of chaos have we unleashed?
01:24:20There's a wedding between two royal families and Edwin's involved.
01:24:24So you kind of expected an intimate affair, just the two of us.
01:24:28Yes, but seating 500 guests, how are we going to do that?
01:24:32And do we really know who all these people are?
01:24:34I mean, this one, for example, Johnny Payne.
01:24:36Ah, yes.
01:24:37The heir to the Glasswick dukedom.
01:24:40He's the son of my uncle, Willie.
01:24:42That's on my mother's side.
01:24:44I see.
01:24:44And his plus one is a misprudent thawp.
01:24:47But why are they seated at a table with the Americans?
01:24:50Oh, that was quite the scandal.
01:24:51You see, Willie went over to America,
01:24:52had a secret wife and a hidden heir.
01:24:54I see.
01:24:56But shouldn't he be seated with his parents, William and Dorothy?
01:24:59He should be seated with his highness's cousin, Henry.
01:25:03Yes, because Henry is going out with an American,
01:25:06Princess Sweet Pea.
01:25:08Princess Sweet Pea, the theme park princess.
01:25:10You know she's not real, right?
01:25:11Apparently she's real enough to be eating lobster at our wedding.
01:25:15Well, if all this goes south,
01:25:16I'll be over there drinking beer with Rooster and Alice.
01:25:19I've got a better idea.
01:25:20Why don't we run out for some pizza?
01:25:23Hmm.
01:25:24Let's go.
01:25:30I'm in the night.
01:26:02We're right back.
