TVTranscript
00:07No young man, no matter how great, can know his destiny.
00:15He cannot glimpse his part in the great story that is about to unfold.
00:22Like everyone, he must live and learn.
00:30And so it will be for the young warlock arriving at the gates of Camelot.
00:37A boy that will in time father a legend.
00:46His name...
00:49Merlin.
01:00Merlin.
01:02Merlin.
01:03Merlin.
01:12Merlin.
01:15Merlin.
01:19Oh, my God.
02:11Let this serve as a lesson to all.
02:14This man, Thomas James Collins, is a judge guilty of conspiring to use enchantments and magic.
02:24And pursuant to the laws of Camelot, I, Uther Pendragon, have decreed that such practices are banned.
02:34On penalty of death, I pride myself as a fair and just king.
02:41But for the crime of sorcery, there is but one sentence I can pass.
02:48Oh, my God.
03:15This kingdom was mired in chaos.
03:19But with the people's help, magic was driven from the realm.
03:22So I declare a festival to celebrate 20 years since the great dragon was captured and Camelot freed from the
03:31evil of sorcery.
03:34Let the celebrations begin.
03:45There is only one evil in this land and it is not magic.
03:48It is you.
03:52With your hatred and your ignorance.
03:58You took my son.
04:03And I promise you, before these celebrations are over, you will share my tears.
04:13An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a son for a son.
04:19Seize her.
04:21Seize her.
04:39Seize her.
04:52Where would I find Guyce, the court physician?
05:16What's that?
05:29I don't know.
05:37Guyce?
05:56What did you just do?
05:59Tell me.
06:01I have no idea what happened.
06:03If anyone had seen that...
06:05No, that was nothing to do with me.
06:07I know what it was. I just wanted to know where you learned how to do it.
06:11Nowhere.
06:11So how is it you know magic?
06:13I don't.
06:15Where did you study?
06:17How's it been?
06:18I don't know. I've never studied magic or been taught.
06:20Are you lying to me, boy?
06:22What do you want me to say?
06:24The truth.
06:24I was born like this.
06:25That's impossible.
06:29Who are you?
06:30Oh, erm, I have this letter.
06:33Okay.
06:36I'm...
06:37I don't have my glasses.
06:39I'm Merlin.
06:41Who this, sir?
06:42Yes.
06:43But you're not meant to be here till Wednesday.
06:46It is Wednesday.
06:50Ah.
06:51Right then.
06:53You'd better put your bag in there.
06:59You won't say anything about, erm...
07:03No.
07:07Hello, Merlin.
07:08Sir.
07:09I should say thank you.
07:58My dear Gaius, I turn to you for I feel lost and alone and don't know who to trust.
08:05It is every mother's fate to think her child is special, and yet I would give my life that Merlin
08:10were not so.
08:12Ours is a small village and he is so clearly at odds with people here that if he were to
08:18remain, I fear what would become of him.
08:21He needs a hand to hold, a voice to guide, someone that might help him find a purpose for his
08:27gifts.
08:29I beg you, if you understand a mother's love for her son, keep him safe.
08:36And may God save you both.
09:00Morgana.
09:02Yes?
09:02What is this?
09:03Why are you not joining us at the feast?
09:07I just don't think chopping someone's head off is cause for celebration.
09:12That poor mother.
09:14It was simple justice for what he'd done.
09:16To whom?
09:17He practiced some magic.
09:19He didn't hurt anyone.
09:20You were not around 20 years ago.
09:21You have no idea what it was like.
09:23How long are you going to keep punishing people for what happened then?
09:25Until they realize there is no room for magic in my kingdom.
09:29You will be with me when I greet Lady Helen.
09:31I told you I want no part of these.
09:33I am your guardian.
09:35I expect you to do as I ask.
09:38If you show me no respect, at least respect our finest singer.
09:43You know, the more brutal you are, the more enemies you'll create.
09:56Later.
10:17Hello?
10:20Gregory?
10:25lady helen is all well yes ma'am good luck we should reach camelot lake
10:31tomorrow that's good i'll be outside if you need me

11:42if
11:43For all in Scrape.com.
11:45What?
12:09Molly...
12:36I got you water.
12:38You didn't wash last night.
12:41Sorry.
12:41Help yourself to breakfast.
12:58How did you do that?
13:00Did you encounter a spell in your mind?
13:03I don't know any spells.
13:04So what did you do?
13:05There must be something.
13:07It just happened.
13:14Well, we'd better keep you out of trouble.
13:16You can help me until I find some paid work for you.
13:20Here.
13:21Hollyhock and FIFA view for Lady Percival.
13:23This is for Sir Alwyn.
13:24He's as blind as a weevil, so warn him not to take it all at once.
13:28OK.
13:28And here.
13:35Off you go.
13:40And Merlin, I need hardly tell you that the practice of any form of enchantments will get
13:46you killed.
14:05I brought you your medicine.
14:14Well, the guy said don't drink it all.
14:17OK.
14:22I'm sure it's fine.
14:30Where's the target?
14:32There, sir.
14:33It's into the sun.
14:35It's not that bright.
14:36A bit like you, then.
14:37Yeah.
14:38I'll put the target on the other end, shall I say?
14:44This will feed you.
14:52Hey, hang on.
14:53Don't stop.
14:58Here?
14:59I told you to keep moving.
15:03Come on.
15:05Run.
15:08Do you want some moving target practice?
15:24Hey.
15:26Come on, that's enough.
15:29What?
15:29You've had your fun, my friend.
15:33Do I know you?
15:34I'm Merlin.
15:35So I don't know you?
15:36No.
15:37Yet you called me friend.
15:39That was my mistake.
15:41Yes, I think so.
15:41Yeah.
15:42I'd never have a friend who could be such an ass.
15:46Or I, one who could be so stupid.
15:49Tell me, Merlin, do you know how to walk on your knees?
15:52No.
15:53Would you like me to help you?
15:54I wouldn't if I were you.
15:56Why?
15:57What are you going to do to me?
15:58You have no idea.
15:59Be my guest.
16:00Come on.
16:02Come on.
16:04Come on.
16:08I'll have a friend in jail for that.
16:10Well, who do you think you are?
16:11The king?
16:11No.
16:12I'm his son.
16:13Arthur.
16:14I love you, my brother.
16:15You're my mother.
16:21Julian, thank you.
16:22You're my son.
16:25I'm your son.
16:27You're my son.
16:29I'm the king.
16:30Come on.
16:30You're my son.
16:31You're my son.
16:31I'm my son.
16:31You're my son.
16:32I'm the king.
16:32Hawkgkmaw.
16:32I'm the king.
16:34I'm the king.
16:39Let's go.
17:16Lady Helen, thank you so much for coming to sing at our celebrations.
17:21Pleasure's all mine.
17:23How was your journey?
17:24The time it took, Si.
17:26Well, it's always worth the wait.
17:29It will be.
17:41Lady.
17:46Lady.
17:52Lady.
17:59Lady.
18:05You never cease to amaze me.
18:08The one thing that someone like you should do is keep your head down.
18:11And what do you do?
18:12You behave like an idiot.
18:14I'm sorry.
18:15You're lucky.
18:16I've managed to pull a few strings to get you released.
18:19Oh, thank you.
18:23I won't forget this.
18:24Well, there is a small price to pay.
18:28Oh, God.
18:41Thanks.
18:57I'm Guinevere, but most people call me Gwen.
19:00I'm the Lady Morgana's maid.
19:02Right.
19:03I'm Merlin.
19:06Hello, most people just call me idiot.
19:08No, no, no.
19:09I saw what you did.
19:11You're so brave.
19:12You're stupid.
19:14Well, I'm glad you walked away.
19:15You weren't going to beat him.
19:17Oh, why?
19:18I can beat him.
19:19You think?
19:21Because you don't look like one of these big, muscly kind of fellows.
19:26Thanks.
19:27No, no.
19:28I'm sure you're stronger than you look.
19:31It's just, um, Arthur's one of these real rough, tough, save the world kind of men, and
19:37well, you don't look like that.
19:42I'm in disguise.
19:47Well, it's great you stood up to him.
19:49You think so?
19:50Arthur's a bully, and everyone thought you were a real hero.
19:58Oh, excuse me.
19:59Go on over here.
20:01My pants are waiting.
20:10Do you want some vegetables with that?
20:14I know you're still angry with me.
20:16Your mother asked me to look after you.
20:19Yes.
20:20What did your mother say to you about your gifts?
20:25Oh, that I was special?
20:28You are special.
20:29The likes of which I've never seen before.
20:33What do you mean?
20:34Well, magic requires incantations, spells.
20:38It takes years to study.
20:39What I saw you do was elemental, instinctive.
20:44What's the point if it can't be used?
20:46That I do not know.
20:48Well, you are a question that has never been posed before, Merlin.
20:56Did you ever study magic?
21:00Uther banned all such work 20 years ago.
21:03Why?
21:03People used magic for the wrong end at that time.
21:07It threw the natural order into chaos.
21:10Uther made it his mission to destroy everything from back then, even the dragons.
21:15Well, all of them.
21:16There was one dragon he chose not to kill.
21:19Kept it as an example.
21:22He imprisoned it in a cave deep beneath the castle.
21:27Where no one can free it.
21:31Now, meet up.
21:32You're finished.
21:33I need you to take a preparation to Lady Helen.
21:35She needs it for her voice.
22:03I need you to take a preparation to be able to do it.
22:40What are you doing in here?
22:42Um, I was asked to deliver this.
23:14How's your knee walking coming along?
23:17Oh, don't run away.
23:21From you.
23:22Oh, thank God.
23:23I thought you were deaf as well as dumb.
23:26Look, I've told you you're an ass.
23:28I just didn't realise you were a royal one.
23:32Oh, what are you going to do?
23:35Get your daddy's men to protect you?
23:38I could take you apart with one below.
23:40I could take you apart with less than that.
23:42Are you sure?
23:49Here you go, big man.
23:54Come on, then.
23:57I warn you, I've been trained to kill since birth.
24:00Wow.
24:01And how long have you been training to be a prat?
24:05You can't address me like that.
24:07Sorry.
24:08How long have you been training to be a prat, my lord?
24:17Come on, then, Merlin.
24:20Come on.
24:22Come on.
24:23Come on.
24:25Come on.
24:25Come on.
24:27Come on.
24:27Come on.
24:27Come on.
24:27Come on.
24:28Come on.
24:29Come on.
24:29Come on.
24:40Come on.
24:41Come on.
24:50You're in trouble now.
24:52Okay.
25:09Oh
25:25Do you want to give up?
25:26To you.
25:26Do you?
25:27Do you want to give up?
25:42Wait.
25:44Let him go.
25:45He may be an idiot, but he's a brave one.
25:49There's something about you, Merlin.
25:52I can't quite put my finger on it.
25:56How could you be so foolish?
25:59He needed to be taught a lesson.
26:01Magic must be studied, mastered, and used for good, not for idiotic pranks.
26:05What is it to master?
26:07I could move objects like that before I could talk.
26:09Then by now you should know how to control yourself.
26:11I don't want to.
26:12If I can't use magic, what have I got?
26:15I'm just a nobody, and who always will be.
26:19If I can't use magic, I might as well die.
26:36Merlin?
26:38Sit up.
26:39Take your shirt off.
26:54You don't know why I was born like this, do you?
26:58No.
27:01I'm not a monster, am I?
27:05Don't ever think that.
27:08Then why am I like this?
27:10Please, I need to know why.
27:14Maybe there's someone with more knowledge than me.
27:18If you can't tell me, no one can.
27:32Take this.
27:34We'll help with the pain.
27:58Will you sing for me tonight?
27:59You will have to wait, sire.
28:01You will not deny me.
28:02I am saving myself for my performance tomorrow.
28:06Will everyone be there?
28:08Who would dare to miss it?
28:10How about your son?
28:13It seems a shame not to have met him.
28:15That's Arthur.
28:18Poor child.
28:20Poor child.
28:21It can't have been easy to grow up without a mother.
28:25No.
28:28That bond between mother and son.
28:31It's so hard to replace.
28:34Hasn't been easy.
28:35I'm sure.
28:41Perhaps if you found someone.
28:43If you remarried.
28:47I'm sure you'd have the pick of any lady in the kingdom.
28:50Oh.
28:51Perhaps I'll find love again.
28:54But I'm afraid it's too late to replace Arthur's mother.
28:58Yes.
29:00It's certainly too late for Arthur.
29:11I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:16I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:21I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:21I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:21I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:22I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:22I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:23I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:23I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:24I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:24I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
29:29I'm afraid it's too late for Arthur's mother.
