00:00Male 24. Severe nerve damage in both legs. Paralyzed for three years. The plan is nerve
00:07reconstruction and functional regeneration. Evelyn. No one has ever succeeded with a
00:13reconstruction like this. Are you certain you want to proceed? Chief, I don't operate
00:20unless I know I can win. Begin. Wipe sweat.
00:42Dr. Shaw. Dr. Shaw, you've completed the world's first successful nerve
00:46reconstruction and received a Nobel nomination. How do you feel?
00:49Dr. Shaw, can you tell us of who's here? Evelyn. Mr. Blackwood would like to take you to dinner
00:55and thank you in person. Which Mr. Blackwood? Your patient. He's not only heir to the Blackwood
00:59family but one of the youngest financial power players in Europe. And? He's young, handsome
01:04and unmarried. Does that affect my surgical report? You can't spend your whole life married
01:11to a scalpel. Mr. Blackwood, Dr. Shaw is here.
01:23Evelyn. Dr. Shaw. Evelyn. Dr. Shaw. Evelyn. Am I dying?
01:30Dr. Shaw. Evelyn. Am I dead? Mother, is she dead? Good riddance if she is. That wicked woman
01:44gambles, rages, and torments Rowan's poor children. The Lord has finally shown mercy.
01:49No way. I was a top surgeon and now I'm a vicious gambling stepmother?
01:56God, if you had to throw me into another life, could you at least have spared my fate?
02:10She's risen from the grave! We must tell Rowan!
02:22Mother, I was wrong! I should not have defied you! Beat me! Punish me! But please, save Macy first!
02:31Save Macy?
02:33You wicked woman! Let me go!
02:36I'm sending you to a better house! Stop being ungrateful!
02:40You're lying! You're selling me!
02:49Useless little burden! If you weren't worth a few coins, I'd-
02:52You viper! Don't touch Macy!
03:00So that's how she died. Cruel to children. Hardly undeserved.
03:06I know you hate us! If you spare my sister, you may beat me to death!
03:13Silly boy. I'm not going to take your life.
03:16We'll speak of this later. Take me to Macy first.
03:19She's inside!
03:25Rowan! Trouble! Your woman has come back from the dead!
03:29Perfect. More trouble.
03:35How could the old Evelyn be so cruel to such a little girl?
03:38Good. The cut isn't deep. We need to stop the bleeding first.
03:45Mother! Macy isn't pretending! Can we take her to the physician now?
03:49No! She struck her head. We mustn't move her yet. I'll stop the bleeding first.
04:03What is that?
04:04Cobwebs. They can stain bleeding.
04:07That's from the corner of the wall! It's filthy! You're putting that on Macy's head?
04:11When soldiers have no clean linen, they use this in the field.
04:14You are trying to hurt her!
04:16Let go.
04:17No! I won't let you hurt my sister again!
04:23You wicked woman! You put a spider's web into her wound!
04:28Stop shouting.
04:30Get away from her!
04:31Stubborn little brat!
04:33Keep fighting me, and I swear...
04:36Evelyn. Step away from her.
04:45So this is my husband in this life?
04:48He'd be a cover model in mine.
04:55If this is my husband, perhaps this marriage is worth keeping.
05:01Father! You're finally back!
05:04Finn, don't be afraid.
05:08Hi.
05:09Evelyn, your madness was bad enough.
05:12But harming Finn and Macy's...
05:14It's a misunderstanding.
05:16All of it.
05:17A misunderstanding?
05:19You gamble.
05:21You covet Rowan's coin.
05:22And whenever he is away, you work those children like servants.
05:26The whole village knows it.
05:27Rowan, a woman like her should have been cast out long ago.
05:32You seem eager to see a wife cast out.
05:35Planning to take her place?
05:38We only want what is best for Rowan.
05:41No need.
05:42My husband is mine to care for.
05:44Isn't that right, dear?
05:45Evelyn!
05:46What madness is this now?
05:50Who needs tending?
05:52Master Gideon, please see to Macy.
05:58Evelyn, clever words won't save you.
06:00You hurt Macy and Finn.
06:02Rowan will not let that pass.
06:04Once Rowan casts you out,
06:05this village will not shelter a wicked woman like you.
06:08Whether this village accepts me speaks to your mercy.
06:11Whether I stay speaks to my ability.
06:13Who put this on the child's wound?
06:15She did.
06:16She pressed cobwebs onto Macy's head.
06:19She wanted to make the wound worse.
06:20I told you.
06:23Leave children in this woman's hands
06:25and they'll end up dead.
06:26Evelyn Shaw!
06:29She was bleeding
06:30and there was no clean linen.
06:32I used the cobwebs to...
06:33Enough!
06:35My patience has its limits.
06:37Tomorrow,
06:38I will call the elder
06:40and the priest to witness it.
06:42This marriage ends.
06:44What?
06:49Ending the marriage is not enough, Rowan.
06:52A woman like her should be driven from the village.
06:55Aye.
06:56She's a horrible mother.
06:58She gambles
07:00and she gets up to suspicious things.
07:02She cannot stay.
07:04You two...
07:05Enough!
07:07What I meant to say is this.
07:10Cogwebs can indeed stain bleeding.
07:14Did I truly misjudge her?
07:18Rowan,
07:19it was surely blind luck.
07:22She has done enough cruel things before.
07:25Ask Finn if you doubt it.
07:32I...
07:33I...
07:34I...
07:36Enough.
07:38Maisie needs quiet.
07:39You both should leave.
07:45I know medicine as well.
07:47Let me...
07:48Outside.
07:50Now.
07:55Evelyn.
07:57Tomorrow this marriage ends.
07:59I'll give you three silver coins.
08:01If you want anything else,
08:03say it now.
08:04Do not make a scene before everyone tomorrow.
08:06Why must the marriage still end?
08:08Can't we simply live properly as a family?
08:11A family?
08:13Have you forgotten how you became my wife?
08:27That's quite a haul.
08:28This man is clearly capable.
08:39You touched me.
08:40Now you must marry me.
08:42I was saving your life.
08:43Then I'll tell the whole village you ruined my honor.
08:54I thought you had more coin than this.
08:56It wouldn't last two rounds at the tables.
08:59I married you only so Finn and Maisie might have someone to care for them.
09:03Spare me your sermons.
09:04You married me so you will keep me.
09:12Or I'll go to the priest and the elder and say you mistreat your wife.
09:17So she trapped him into marriage.
09:19Old Evelyn, you really were a disaster.
09:21There has never been affection between us.
09:24I married you only because the children needed a mother.
09:28But after what you did to Maisie, I will not keep you here.
09:31Wait.
09:33Affection can grow, can't it?
09:37I swear.
09:38From today on, I'll treat Finn and Maisie as my own.
09:42I won't let them suffer or be wronged again.
09:46Do you believe that yourself?
09:51I do believe it.
09:52I adore children.
09:54Shall I swear an oath?
09:56Evelyn, what trick are you playing now?
10:00I'm not playing tricks.
10:05I just think you're rather handsome, and I wouldn't mind falling in love with you properly.
10:11Who gave you leave to speak so boldly?
10:13Have you no shame?
10:16Was that really so shocking?
10:18I'm young, brilliant, and not bad looking.
10:21What exactly is beneath him?
10:28Good lord!
10:30Who is that?
10:33No wonder Rowan wants this marriage ended.
10:37It's only a skin condition.
10:39Treatable.
10:40A proper transformation must be put on the list.
10:53Let me do it.
10:55No.
10:57Stand back.
10:58You frighten her.
11:00Fine.
11:10Evelyn, your dear old friend is here.
11:13Open the door.
11:14Dear old friend?
11:16Don't tell me the old Evelyn had a lover.
11:22I'll handle it.
11:24Who are you?
11:25Spouting nonsense at another man's door?
11:27Aren't you afraid God might strike you down?
11:31Evelyn, you begged me for coin two days ago.
11:34Now you don't know me?
11:35So he's only a creditor.
11:37Wait.
11:38A creditor?
11:40Where's the little girl?
11:41I've already made arrangements.
11:44I'm here to collect her.
11:45Evelyn!
11:46You were still planning to sell Macy?
11:53I...
11:55Evelyn.
11:59You owe twenty silver coins.
12:02If you can't pay...
12:02No, no, I'll pay!
12:04You?
12:05Rowan is a hunter.
12:06How much coin can he scrape together in a year?
12:09Take.
12:10Take Maisley.
12:12The girl is pretty.
12:13She'll fetch a fine price.
12:14A secret lover would have been less horrifying.
12:16That was nonsense!
12:17It's only twenty silver coins.
12:19I'll pay.
12:20A gambler's promise is filthier than ditch water.
12:23We're taking the child today.
12:25Let one of you try!
12:26Poor hunter dares stand in my way.
12:28You know who stands behind me?
12:29A child is not chattel.
12:32Take her from my house by force,
12:33and you'll answer to the sheriff.
12:36Well now.
12:38A hill hunter who knows the crown's law.
12:40He truly doesn't speak like an ordinary villager.
12:43Fine.
12:45I'll leave the child.
12:46I'll break her legs for the debt instead.
12:49You can't be serious.
12:51She trapped you into marriage anyway.
12:54We'll rid you of the trouble.
12:56Beat her!
13:03Didn't he want me gone?
13:05Why is he protecting me?
13:14Rowan, what do you think you're doing?
13:16She is still my wife.
13:18As long as she remains under the McRae roof,
13:20none of you will lay a hand on her.
13:22Wow.
13:23A man of principle.
13:25Fine!
13:25Then you're asking for it.
13:27Beat them!
13:28You think I'm afraid of you?
13:30Stay behind me.
13:36You sure he's just a hunter?
13:47Damn you both.
13:48I'll finish this myself.
13:50Look out!
13:58Drop your weapons!
13:59Do you hear me?
14:00Now!
14:01Alright, Evelyn.
14:01What do you want?
14:03Give me ten days.
14:05Ten days later, I'll pay back your twenty silver coins.
14:08What if I refuse?
14:09Then you die here.
14:11And the debt dies with you.
14:12Fine.
14:14Ten days.
14:16Now scram.
14:18Run!
14:18Hurry!
14:19Run for it!
14:22Since when can you fight like that?
14:24You are not the woman I married.
14:27Who are you?
14:32Who are you exactly?
14:34This is nothing.
14:35I was a three-time champion of the World Medical Combat Federation.
14:44I can't.
14:46I learned it from you.
14:48I don't recall ever teaching you anything.
14:51I used to watch you train in the yard.
14:55Truth be told, it wasn't just your silver that drew me.
14:58But your beauty as well.
15:00Mind your tongue.
15:01It's broad daylight.
15:03I'm just being honest.
15:05He blushes so easily.
15:06Do all men of your time frighten so easily?
15:14Rowan!
15:26His wrist tendons were badly injured.
15:29No wonder he avoids using his hand.
15:33What are you doing?
15:35Did you unlace my shirt?
15:38Would you prefer I let the wound fester?
15:43Are we not husband and wife?
15:46Why are you so flustered?
15:51Your hand is treatable.
15:54I'm curious.
15:55Where did you get those scars?
16:08From hunting.
16:10Then the beasts of the forest must have learned steel, have they?
16:16Never mind.
16:17Everyone has their secrets.
16:19Thank you for standing up for me earlier.
16:21I did it for the children.
16:23I was keeping them from seeing blood.
16:25Yeah, tell yourself that.
16:27You should get some rest.
16:29I'll go check on Maisie.
16:31No.
16:32Why?
16:35If I hadn't been here today, you would have barded Maisie away.
16:38You're not allowed to go near her again.
16:43I may be the unluckiest scapegoat alive.
16:46I'm really sorry.
16:48But I'm a different person now.
16:50You'll see.
16:54You saved my life today.
16:56There's no way I'll mistreat your kids after that.
16:58Rest assured.
16:59I'll find a way to pay Hob his silver.
17:02If you're serious about it, I can help you.
17:05Nah.
17:06You hunt for a living.
17:08How much can that even bring in a year?
17:11That...
17:13Sorry.
17:14I didn't mean to insult you.
17:16I just thought it wasn't the fastest waste way to earn joins.
17:22I need money.
17:24And I need it quickly.
17:25Quick money?
17:27You are not thinking of gambling again, are you?
17:29Of course not.
17:31Gamblers always lose in the end.
17:34Only fools try to live by it.
17:38Is she talking about herself?
17:42Anyway, you can count on me.
17:44I once rewrote the movement of money through Wall Street in three days.
17:48Twenty silver coins are nothing.
17:50Where is Wall Street?
17:52A place...
17:53full of money.
17:56Doesn't matter.
17:57Leave it to me.
18:00It's late.
18:02Get some sleep.
18:03I'll set the floor.
18:06Don't be ridiculous.
18:07You're injured.
18:09Come to bed.
18:10It's big enough for two.
18:14Really?
18:15You never let me sleep there before.
18:17That was before.
18:18Now you may sleep where you want.
18:34Has she really changed?
18:46Rowan, something's wrong.
18:49What are you talking about?
18:52I just saw Evelyn near the back of the hills.
18:55She must be running away.
18:57Leaving all the debt to you.
19:04The whole village knows she owes Hob silver.
19:07She's fled, so she needn't repay him.
19:09Rowan, what are you waiting for?
19:12Go see what she's taken from the house.
19:14She wouldn't leave.
19:16What?
19:17She said she's changed.
19:18I believe her.
19:19Have you forgotten what she's done to you before?
19:20She gambled your coin, mistreated the children, nearly sold Maisie.
19:23Are you sure she can be trusted?
19:25If she has fled, then I blame my own poor judgment.
19:27It is no concern of yours.
19:29Why must you be so stubborn?
19:30I am trying to help you.
19:32Iza, whose business are you meddling in today?
19:36You came back?
19:40Why shouldn't I?
19:43This is my home.
19:46Yet you come to my house to fawn over another woman's husband.
19:49What exactly are your intentions?
19:52How could you say that?
19:53Rowan, did you hear her?
19:55I understand.
19:56With a husband this handsome, temptation is only natural.
20:01But, hey, I won't allow it.
20:05Not happening.
20:06I won't allow it.
20:08What are you doing?
20:12What?
20:13Feeling sorry for her?
20:17Waste less of it.
20:22The back mountain is dangerous.
20:24Don't go there unless you must.
20:26Is he worried about me?
20:30Don't worry.
20:31I know what I'm doing.
20:35Look what I found.
20:38That's...
20:38A bundle of wild roots?
20:40Even cattle would not eat them.
20:41Why bring that back?
20:42This is mandrel.
20:43It's the major ingredient of a sleeping drast.
20:45With that, I'll be able to treat your hand.
20:47You truly know medicine?
20:48Rowan, don't let her fool you.
20:50She can't even tell herbs from weeds.
20:51If she can heal, pigs can fly over the church steeple.
20:53Fools often call knowledge they don't understand witchcraft.
20:57Are you calling me a fool?
20:59I'm glad you understood.
21:02Evelyn, you hideous little wit.
21:05Father, Macy has a burning fever.
21:07I can't wake her.
21:12Rowan, I'll fetch Mr. Gideon.
21:14This is happening because of Evelyn.
21:15You can't trust her anymore.
21:25You shouldn't be here.
21:28Mr. Gideon, she took the medicine.
21:29How is she doing?
21:36The draught is sound, but the child is too weak.
21:40I don't know if she can endure long enough for it to take hold.
21:44All we can do now is pray she survives the night.
21:47This is Evelyn's doing.
21:49She starved the girl, left her in rags, and tormented her whenever Rowan was away.
21:55If not for her, Maisie would never have fallen this ill.
22:01Pointing fingers won't help her.
22:03Let me see her.
22:04I can...
22:04Stay away from her!
22:06Stop pretending, Evelyn.
22:07If Maisie dies, her blood will be on your hands.
22:10Let go!
22:11No!
22:12I will not let you near Maisie again!
22:15No!
22:16She has stopped breathing!
22:20What?
22:24It's not too late.
22:25I can bring her back.
22:27What are you going to do?
22:28I can make her breathe again.
22:30Trust me, just this once!
22:43What are you doing?
22:47Rowan, stop her!
22:49She is stealing the kid's soul!
22:55She said it will save her.
22:57Save her?
22:58She's defiling the dead!
23:00I have practiced medicine for decades, and I have never seen such a thing.
23:05Yesterday she rose from the dead, and now she kisses a corpse she must be possessed!
23:10Stupid witch!
23:11Get away from my sister!
23:14If you want her to live, stay out of my way!
23:18Dad!
23:21Rowan, you still believe in that freak?
23:24I don't care what she is.
23:25As long as she brings Maisie back, I do not care.
23:29But if she kills her, I'll make her regret it.
23:33Poor Maisie!
23:34Tormented by her in life, and even now that she is gone, Evelyn still will not let her rest.
23:44Still no breath.
23:45Enough!
23:46She is gone.
23:48No!
23:49Evelyn!
23:50Rowan, don't let her torment Maisie anymore.
23:58Maisie!
23:59Please.
24:04Male 24.
24:06Severe nerve damage in both legs.
24:08Paralyzed for three years.
24:10The plan is nerve reconstruction and functional regeneration.
24:14Evelyn!
24:16No one has ever succeeded with a reconstruction like this.
24:19Are you certain you want to proceed?
24:23Chief, I don't operate unless I know I can win.
24:28Begin.
24:34Wipe sweat.
24:47Dr. Shaw.
24:48Dr. Shaw, you've completed the world's first successful nerve reconstruction and received a Nobel nomination.
24:54How do you feel?
24:54Dr. Shaw, can you tell us of who's here?
24:57Evelyn, Mr. Blackwood would like to take you to dinner and thank you in person.
25:01Which Mr. Blackwood?
25:02Your patient.
25:03He's not only heir to the Blackwood family, but one of the youngest financial power players in Europe.
25:07And?
25:08He's young, handsome, and unmarried.
25:10Does that affect my surgical report?
25:14You can't spend your whole life married to a scalpel.
25:19Mr. Blackwood, Dr. Shaw is here!
25:28Evelyn!
25:29Dr. Shaw!
25:31Evelyn!
25:32Am I...
25:34dying?
25:42Wasn't I dead?
25:45Mother, is she dead?
25:46Good riddance if she is.
25:48That wicked woman gambles, rages, and torments Rowan's poor children.
25:52The Lord has finally shown mercy.
25:54No way!
25:56I was a top surgeon and now I'm a vicious gambling stepmother?
25:59Ah!
26:01God, if you had to throw me into another life, could you at least have spared my sake?
26:10Ah!
26:15She's risen from the grave!
26:17We must tell Rowan!
26:19Good grief.
26:21How loud can they be?
26:27Mother, I was wrong.
26:29I should not have defied you.
26:32Beat me!
26:33Punish me!
26:34But please save Macy first!
26:36Save Macy?
26:37You wicked woman!
26:39Let me go!
26:41I'm sending you to a better house!
26:43Stop being ungrateful!
26:45You're lying!
26:46You're selling me!
26:48Ah!
26:49Ah!
26:50Ah!
26:51Ah!
26:51Ah!
26:53Useless little burden!
26:55If you weren't worth a few coins, I'd-
26:57You viper!
26:58Don't touch Macy!
26:59Ah!
27:05So that's how she died.
27:08Cruel to children.
27:10Hardly undeserved.
27:11I know you hate us!
27:12If you spare my sister, you may beat me to death!
27:17Silly boy.
27:19I'm not going to take your life.
27:21We'll speak of this later.
27:23Take me to Macy first.
27:24She's inside!
27:30Rowan!
27:31Trouble!
27:31Your woman has come back from the dead!
27:34Perfect.
27:35More trouble.
27:40How could the old Evelyn be so cruel to such a little girl?
27:43Good.
27:44The cut isn't deep.
27:46We need to stop the bleeding first.
27:50Mother!
27:51Macy isn't pretending!
27:53Can we take her to the physician now?
27:54She struck her head.
27:56We mustn't move her yet.
27:57I'll stop the bleeding first.
28:08What is that?
28:09Cobwebs.
28:10They can stain bleeding.
28:11That's from the corner of the wall!
28:13It's filthy!
28:14You're putting that on Macy's head?
28:16When soldiers have no clean linen, they use this in the field.
28:19You are trying to hurt her!
28:21Let go.
28:22No!
28:23I won't let you hurt my sister again!
28:27You wicked woman!
28:29You put a spider's web into her wound!
28:33Stop shouting!
28:34Get away from her!
28:36Stubborn little brat!
28:38Keep fighting me, and I swear-
28:41Evelyn!
28:42Step away from her!
28:50So this is my husband in this life?
28:53He'd be a cover model in mine.
29:00If this is my husband, perhaps this marriage is worth keeping.
29:06Father!
29:07You're finally back!
29:09Finn, don't be afraid.
29:12Hi.
29:14Evelyn, your madness was bad enough.
29:17But harming Finn and Macy's...
29:19It's a misunderstanding.
29:20All of it.
29:22A misunderstanding?
29:24You gamble.
29:25You covet Rowan's coin.
29:27And whenever he is away, you work those children like servants.
29:31The whole village knows it.
29:32Rowan, a woman like her should have been cast out long ago.
29:37You seem eager to see a wife cast out.
29:40Planning to take her place?
29:43We only want what is best for Rowan.
29:46No need.
29:46My husband is mine to care for.
29:49Isn't that right, dear?
29:50Evelyn!
29:51What madness is this now?
29:55Who needs tending?
29:57Master Gideon, please see to Macy.
30:02Evelyn, clever words won't save you.
30:05You hurt Macy and Finn.
30:07Rowan will not let that pass.
30:08Once Rowan casts you out,
30:10this village will not shelter a wicked woman like you.
30:13Whether this village accepts me speaks to your mercy.
30:16Whether I stay speaks to my ability.
30:18Who put this on the child's wound?
30:19She did.
30:21She pressed cobwebs onto Macy's head.
30:23She wanted to make the wound worse.
30:25I told you.
30:27Leave children in this woman's hands and they'll end up dead.
30:31Evelyn Shaw!
30:34She was bleeding and there was no clean linen.
30:37I used the cobwebs to-
30:38Enough!
30:40My patience has its limits.
30:43Tomorrow, I will call the elder and the priest to witness it.
30:47This marriage ends.
30:54Ending the marriage is not enough, Rowan.
30:57A woman like her should be driven from the village.
31:00Aye.
31:01She's a horrible mother.
31:03She gambles and she gets up to suspicious things.
31:07She cannot stay.
31:09You two-
31:09Enough!
31:12What I meant to say is this.
31:15Cogwebs can indeed stain bleeding.
31:19Did I truly misjudge her?
31:22Rowan, it was surely blind luck.
31:27She has done enough cruel things before.
31:29Ask Finn if you doubt it.
31:36I-
31:41Enough.
31:43Maisie needs quiet.
31:44You both should leave.
31:50I know medicine as well.
31:52Let me-
31:53Outside.
31:54Now.
32:01Evelyn, tomorrow this marriage ends.
32:04I'll give you three silver coins.
32:06If you want anything else, say it now.
32:09Do not make a scene before everyone tomorrow.
32:11Why must the marriage still end?
32:13Can't we simply live properly as a family?
32:15A family?
32:17Have you forgotten how you became my wife?
32:32That's quite a haul.
32:33This man is clearly capable.
32:36Ah!
32:44You touched me.
32:45Now you must marry me.
32:47I was saving your life.
32:48Then I'll tell the whole village you ruined my honor.
32:58I thought you had more coin than this.
33:00It wouldn't last two rounds at the tables.
33:04I married you only so Finn and Maisie might have someone to care for them.
33:08Spare me your sermons.
33:09You married me, so you will keep me.
33:17Or I'll go to the priest and the elder and say you mistreat your wife.
33:22So she trapped him into marriage.
33:24Old Evelyn, you really were a disaster.
33:26There has never been affection between us.
33:29I married you only because the children needed a mother.
33:33But after what you did to Maisie, I will not keep you here.
33:36Wait.
33:38Affection can grow, can't it?
33:42I swear.
33:43From today on, I'll treat Finn and Maisie as my own.
33:47I won't let them suffer or be wronged again.
33:51Do you believe that yourself?
33:56I do believe it.
33:57I adore children.
33:59Shall I swear an oath?
34:00Evelyn, what trick are you playing now?
34:05I'm not playing tricks.
34:10I just think you're rather handsome.
34:12And I wouldn't mind falling in love with you properly.
34:15Who gave you leave to speak so boldly?
34:17Have you no shame?
34:21Was that really so shocking?
34:23I'm young, brilliant, and not bad looking.
34:26What exactly is beneath him?
34:33Good lord!
34:35Who is that?
34:38No wonder Rowan wants this marriage ended.
34:42It's only a skin condition.
34:44Treatable.
34:45A proper transformation must be put on the list.
34:58Let me do it.
35:00No.
35:01Stand back.
35:03You frighten her.
35:05Fine.
35:14Evelyn!
35:16Your dear old friend is here!
35:18Open the door!
35:19Dear old friend?
35:21Don't tell me the old Evelyn had a lover.
35:27I'll handle it.
35:29Who are you?
35:29Spouting nonsense at another man's door?
35:31Aren't you afraid God might strike you down?
35:36Evelyn, you begged me for coin two days ago.
35:39Now you don't know me?
35:40So he's only a creditor.
35:42Wait.
35:43A creditor?
35:44Where's the little girl?
35:46Evelyn, I've already made arrangements.
35:48I'm here to collect her.
35:50Evelyn!
35:51You were still planning to sell Macy?
35:57I...
35:59Evelyn.
36:04You owe twenty silver coins.
36:06If you can't pay...
36:07No, no, I'll pay!
36:09You?
36:10Rowan is a hunter.
36:11How much coin can he scrape together in a year?
36:14Take.
36:15Take Maisley.
36:16The girl is pretty.
36:17She'll fetch a fine price.
36:19A secret lover would have been less horrifying.
36:21That was nonsense.
36:22It's only twenty silver coins.
36:24I'll pay.
36:25A gambler's promise is filthier than ditch water.
36:28We're taking the child today.
36:30Let one of you try.
36:31Poor hunter dares stand in my way.
36:33You know who stands behind me?
36:34A child is not chattel.
36:36Take her from my house by force,
36:38and you'll answer to the sheriff.
36:40Well now.
36:42A hill hunter who knows the crown's law.
36:45He truly doesn't speak like an ordinary villager.
36:48Fine.
36:49I'll leave the child.
36:51I'll break her legs for the debt instead.
36:54You can't be serious.
36:56She trapped you into marriage anyway.
36:59We'll rid you of the trouble.
37:01Beat her!
37:08Didn't he want me gone?
37:10Why is he protecting me?
37:11No!
37:12No!
37:19Rowan, what do you think you're doing?
37:21She is still my wife.
37:23As long as she remains under the McRae roof,
37:25none of you will lay a hand on her.
37:27Wow.
37:28A man of principle.
37:29Fine!
37:30Then you're asking for it.
37:32Beat them!
37:33You think I'm afraid of you?
37:35Stay behind me.
37:40You sure he's just a hunter?
37:42You sure he's just a hunter?
37:52Damn you both.
37:53I'll finish this myself.
37:55Look out!
38:02Drop your weapons!
38:04Do you hear me?
38:05Now!
38:05All right, Evelyn.
38:06What do you want?
38:08Give me ten days.
38:10Ten days later, I'll pay back your twenty silver coins.
38:13What if I refuse?
38:14Then you die here.
38:15And the debt dies with you.
38:17Fine.
38:19Ten days.
38:21Now scram.
38:23Run!
38:23Hurry!
38:24Run for it!
38:27Since when can you fight like that?
38:29You are not the woman I married.
38:32Who are you?
38:37Who are you exactly?
38:39This is nothing.
38:40I was a three-time champion of the World Medical Combat Federation.
38:49I can't.
38:51I learned it from you.
38:53I don't recall ever teaching you anything.
38:55I used to watch you train in the yard.
39:00Truth be told, it wasn't just your silver that drew me,
39:03but your beauty as well.
39:05Mind your tongue.
39:06It's broad daylight.
39:07I'm just being honest.
39:10He blushes so easily.
39:12Do all men of your time frighten so easily?
39:19Rowan!
39:31His wrist tendons were badly injured.
39:34No wonder he avoids using his hand.
39:38What are you doing?
39:40Did you unlace my shirt?
39:42Would you prefer I let the wound fester?
39:48Are we not husband and wife?
39:50Why are you so flustered?
39:56Your hand is treatable.
39:58I'm curious.
39:59Where did you get those scars?
40:13From hunting.
40:15Then the beasts of the forest must have learned steel, have they?
40:20Never mind.
40:22Everyone has their secrets.
40:24Thank you for standing up for me earlier.
40:26I did it for the children.
40:28I was keeping them from seeing blood.
40:30Yeah, tell yourself that.
40:32You should get some rest.
40:33I'll go check on Maisie.
40:35No.
40:37Why?
40:39If I hadn't been here today, you would have barded Maisie away.
40:42You're not allowed to go near her again.
40:48I may be the unluckiest scapegoat alive.
40:50I'm really sorry.
40:53But I'm a different person now.
40:55You'll see.
40:59You saved my life today.
41:01There's no way I'll mistreat your kids after that.
41:03Rest assured.
41:04I'll find a way to pay Hob his silver.
41:06If you're serious about it, I can help you.
41:10Nah.
41:11You hunt for a living.
41:12How much can that even bring in a year?
41:16That...
41:18Sorry.
41:19I didn't mean to insult you.
41:21I just thought it wasn't the fastest waste way to earn joins.
41:27I need money.
41:28And I need it quickly.
41:30Quick money?
41:31You are not thinking of gambling again, are you?
41:34Of course not.
41:36Gamblers always lose in the end.
41:39Only fools try to live by it.
41:43Is she talking about herself?
41:47Anyway, you can count on me.
41:49I once rewrote the movement of money through Wall Street in three days.
41:53Twenty silver coins are nothing.
41:55Where is Wall Street?
41:57A place...
41:58full of money.
42:01Doesn't matter.
42:02Leave it to me.
42:04It's late.
42:06Get some sleep.
42:08I'll set the floor.
42:10Don't be ridiculous.
42:11You're injured.
42:14Come to bed.
42:15It's big enough for two.
42:19Really?
42:20You never let me sleep there before.
42:22That was before.
42:23Now you may sleep where you want.
42:38Has she really changed?
42:42Has she really changed?
42:51Rowan, something's wrong.
42:54What are you talking about?
42:57I just saw Evelyn near the back of the hills.
43:00She must be running away.
43:02Leaving all the debt to you.
43:09The whole village knows she owes Hob silver.
43:11She's fled, so she needn't repay him.
43:14Rowan, what are you waiting for?
43:17Go see what she's taken from the house.
43:19She wouldn't leave.
43:21What?
43:21She said she's changed.
43:23I believe her.
43:24Have you forgotten what she's done to you before?
43:25She gambled your coin, mistreated the children, nearly sold Maisie.
43:28Are you sure she can be trusted?
43:30If she has fled, then I blame my own poor judgment.
43:32It is no concern of yours.
43:34Why must you be so stubborn?
43:35I am trying to help you.
43:36Iza, whose business are you meddling in today?
43:41You came back?
43:45Why shouldn't I?
43:48This is my home.
43:50Yet you come to my house to fawn over another woman's husband.
43:54What exactly are your intentions?
43:56How could you say that?
43:58Rowan, did you hear her?
44:00I understand.
44:01With a husband this handsome, temptation is only natural.
44:06But.
44:07Hey!
44:08I won't allow it.
44:10Not happening.
44:11I won't allow it.
44:13What are you doing?
44:16What?
44:17Feeling sorry for her?
44:22Waste less of it.
44:27The back mountain is dangerous.
44:28Don't go there unless you must.
44:31Is he worried about me?
44:35Don't worry.
44:36I know what I'm doing.
44:40Look what I found.
44:43That's...
44:43A bundle of wild roots?
44:45Even cattle would not eat them.
44:46Why bring that back?
44:47This is mandrel.
44:48It's the major ingredient of a sleeping drast.
44:50With that, I'll be able to treat your hand.
44:52You truly know medicine?
44:53Rowan, don't let her fool you.
44:54She can't even tell herbs from weeds.
44:56If she can heal, pigs can fly over the church steeple.
44:58Fools often call knowledge they don't understand witchcraft.
45:02Are you calling me a fool?
45:04I'm glad you understood.
45:07Evelyn!
45:07You hideous little wit!
45:10Father!
45:10Macy has a burning fever!
45:12I can't wake her!
45:16Rowan!
45:17I'll fetch Mr. Gideon!
45:19This is happening because of Evelyn!
45:20You can't trust her anymore!
45:30You shouldn't be here.
45:33Mr. Gideon, she took the medicine.
45:34How is she doing?
45:41The draught is sound, but the child is too weak.
45:45I don't know if she can endure long enough for it to take hold.
45:49All we can do now is pray she survives the night.
45:52This is Evelyn's doing.
45:54She starved the girl, left her in rags, and tormented her whenever Rowan was away.
45:59If not for her, Mazur would never have fallen this ill!
46:06Pointing fingers won't help her.
46:08Let me see her.
46:09I can-
46:09Stay away from her!
46:11Stop pretending, Evelyn.
46:12If Mazie dies, her blood will be on your hands.
46:15Let go!
46:16No!
46:16I will not let you near Mazie again!
46:20No!
46:21She has stopped breathing!
46:24What?
46:29It's not too late.
46:30I can bring her back.
46:32What are you going to do?
46:33I can make her breathe again.
46:35Trust me, just this once!
46:48What are you doing?
46:52Rowan, stop her!
46:54She is stealing the kid's soul!
47:00She said it will save her.
47:02Save her?
47:02She's defiling the dead!
47:05I have practiced medicine for decades, and I have never seen such a thing.
47:09Yesterday she rose from the dead, and now she kisses a corpse she must be possessed!
47:15Stupid witch!
47:16Get away from my sister!
47:18Ah!
47:19If you want her to live, stay out of my way!
47:23Dad!
47:26Rowan, you still believe in that freak?
47:28I don't care what she is.
47:30As long as she brings Mazie back, I do not care.
47:34But if she kills her, I'll make her regret it.
47:38Poor Mazie.
47:39Tormented by her in life.
47:41And even now that she is gone, Evelyn still will not let her rest.
47:49Still no breath.
47:50Enough.
47:51She is gone.
47:53No.
47:54Evelyn!
47:55Rowan, don't let her torment Mazie anymore.
48:03Mazie!
48:04Please.
48:05Please.
