00:00:04Oh my god, Henley.
00:00:08Oh my god.
00:00:12You're covered in coffee.
00:00:13Yeah, of course.
00:00:14I came as soon as I got mom's message.
00:00:16What happened?
00:00:17I skipped breakfast and fainted on the track.
00:00:20It's no big deal.
00:00:22You had me so worried.
00:00:23It'd take more than an empty stomach to kill me off.
00:00:26You're right.
00:00:28You know what?
00:00:28Let me go grab you some food.
00:00:30Okay?
00:00:32What can't be happening?
00:00:34I'm afraid it's the situation.
00:00:36Mom?
00:00:37I'm sorry.
00:00:38The doctor has some bad news.
00:00:40Why?
00:00:41I'm sorry.
00:00:42Your sister has leukemia.
00:00:45Our insurance is expired.
00:00:47There's no way we can pay for her treatment.
00:00:49Don't worry.
00:00:50I'll figure something out.
00:00:51You just go and look after Henley for a moment, okay?
00:00:54Okay.
00:00:55Okay?
00:01:00Oh my god.
00:01:02What am I going to do?
00:01:04I'm only on minimum wage.
00:01:07There are other ways to pay.
00:01:10Tell me.
00:01:10Are you single?
00:01:11What?
00:01:12What's that got to do with anything?
00:01:14It might just save your sister's life.
00:01:18A deluxe mail order ride service?
00:01:39Hello.
00:01:41Dig out your best dress, Harry Douglas.
00:01:43We found you a bidder.
00:02:22Your Royal Highness, Princess Dima has arrived.
00:02:25Excellent. We can finally confirm our engagement.
00:02:28The thing is, we're not exactly sure where in the castle she is.
00:02:31She was last seen speaking to your cousin.
00:02:34Marcus is here.
00:02:35We'll find him before he starts any trouble.
00:02:37No need. I know exactly where he'll be.
00:02:50Dima!
00:02:51Edward!
00:02:54I'm sorry, my love. I don't know what came over me.
00:02:57I do.
00:02:58She wanted a taste of the true heir to the throne.
00:03:03Your majesty, please.
00:03:06No.
00:03:15If either of you step foot in this palace again,
00:03:20I will have you both executed for treason.
00:03:25Now get out.
00:03:29I guess there won't be a Royal Wedding after all.
00:03:42It took years to arrange your marriage to Princess Dima.
00:03:45And now you're throwing our new alliance with Lathena away?
00:03:50I wasn't the one fucking someone else on the throne.
00:03:52You watch your language, boy.
00:03:54She was having sex with cousin Marcus on our seat of power.
00:03:58The one he craves for himself.
00:04:01Surely you can't expect me to still marry her.
00:04:04I'll travel to Lathena and clear up your mess.
00:04:08But there will be a Royal Wedding.
00:04:11You are to find a new bride worthy of this crown.
00:04:44I'll travel to Lathena and clear up your wedding.
00:04:48I'll travel to Lathena and clear up your wedding.
00:04:48Harry Douglas.
00:04:50Spread your arms, please.
00:04:51Um, we agreed that our first date wouldn't be physical, but...
00:04:57Is that really necessary?
00:05:00Your bag, please.
00:05:01You're not my date, are you?
00:05:05I shouldn't have signed up for this.
00:05:06No, I'm sorry.
00:05:07I think I'm just going to go.
00:05:08You don't really honestly...
00:05:09Your Highness.
00:05:16Prince Edward.
00:05:25His Royal Highness Prince Edward Piersman of Australia.
00:05:28That's yourself.
00:05:30R.E. Douglas of Queens.
00:05:33Not a bad start.
00:05:35This is a joke, right? I mean, why would a prince need a mail order bride?
00:05:40Have I read your profile?
00:05:41You're smart, beautiful, talented.
00:05:46But you're hiding something.
00:05:48You don't want money, you need it.
00:05:50You don't know anything about me.
00:05:52Precisely.
00:05:54So you're going to change that, or should I just assume that you are a gold digger like all the
00:05:58rest?
00:06:02You have a great day, your highness.
00:06:12Back to the airport, sir?
00:06:15No.
00:06:18Follow her.
00:06:26How are you feeling today?
00:06:27Why do people keep treating me like I'm dying?
00:06:30We were just worried about you.
00:06:35What's wrong?
00:06:36I think I'm hallucinating.
00:06:39What?
00:06:39Isn't that Prince Edward?
00:06:42What the hell are you doing here?
00:06:44Ari, you're speaking to literal royalty.
00:06:47It's all right.
00:06:48We bumped into each other as I toured the hospital, and I was a little rude.
00:06:52I apologize, Miss Douglas.
00:06:57Could I have a word outside?
00:07:06You're doing this for your sister?
00:07:08Well done.
00:07:09Gold star for the prince.
00:07:11If you marry me, I will pay for her whole treatment.
00:07:16Anything she needs.
00:07:18Wait, you're serious?
00:07:20Yes.
00:07:23But, if you'll permit me, there is one last thing I must test.
00:07:44What now?
00:07:45No.
00:07:57I love you, sis.
00:08:07Australian tradition dictates that you mustn't see each other again until your wedding day.
00:08:11What?
00:08:11So he just kissed me and left?
00:08:13I'm to escort you to Australia as soon as you're down here.
00:08:15But I must ask you to keep the engagement a secret.
00:08:18Why?
00:08:18Every move a royal mech is in the spotlight.
00:08:21And it's just one of the many things you're going to have to get used to.
00:08:23And fast.
00:08:26Your new life starts now.
00:08:29I'm watching.
00:08:40Mama, this is Prince Edward's younger brother, Prince Xivir.
00:08:44Oh, hi.
00:08:45Um.
00:08:47Greetings, Your Royal Highness.
00:09:05My god, did anybody even teach you how to curtsy?
00:09:16God, I'm sorry.
00:09:18Although that really was the worst curtsy I think I've ever seen.
00:09:24So you're the famous Ari Douglas I've heard so much about.
00:09:28I'm Edward's younger, funnier, more handsome, more charismatic little brother.
00:09:34Sorry we ended up with a dad, but we still have time to fall in love, run away before the
00:09:41wedding.
00:09:43Come with me.
00:09:48This is our little fixer-upper.
00:09:52Your room's round about the 312th on the left.
00:09:56I imagine you want to settle in and rest, but...
00:10:04Already late for our first appointment.
00:11:34Bye.
00:11:34She loves you, Grainy.
00:11:34She'll be gone as soon as he gets bought out fucking a present.
00:11:44Go away.
00:11:53So this is true.
00:11:56Who are you?
00:11:58Your predecessor.
00:12:04You have a very pretty face.
00:12:08If you want to keep it that way, leave while you still can.
00:12:12Is that a threat?
00:12:14No, no, it's a warning.
00:12:16Edward is not the man he makes out to be.
00:12:28And trust me, my darling, you weren't the first one to fall for his trap.
00:12:34All right.
00:12:40Harry, you're not leaving, are you?
00:12:44Harry?
00:12:48Harry?
00:12:50Harry?
00:13:05Harry, I've been transferred to the best cancer hospital in Manhattan.
00:13:09My treatment's being paid for by some anonymous donor.
00:13:12That's great, hen.
00:13:14I feel like I can finally breathe again.
00:13:16Oh, gotta go.
00:13:18Dog's here.
00:13:19Love you.
00:13:20Love you.
00:13:25Harry?
00:13:26Harry?
00:13:27It's a big day.
00:13:32Okay.
00:13:38Let's get this over with.
00:14:00You look radiant.
00:14:05I'm sorry.
00:14:06It's not the royal wedding you might have expected.
00:14:09My father...
00:14:10I'm just doing this for Henley.
00:14:12Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to join this man and this woman in holy matrimony.
00:14:19Prince Edward, you're about.
00:14:21Harry, though it was circumstance that brought us together, it is love that will bind us.
00:14:30With this ring, I commit to you my heart, my spirit, and my soul.
00:14:38Let us share our lives until they are well spent and spend them well together.
00:14:46Do you, Edward, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:14:50I do.
00:14:52And do you, Ariana, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:15:01I do.
00:15:03And I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:15:07You may kiss the bride.
00:15:10Arrest that man!
00:15:14Arrest that man!
00:15:20What's the meaning of this?
00:15:22You know exactly what you did, you bastard.
00:15:25Explain yourself.
00:15:27Last night, Prince Edward here decided to pay a little visit to my beloved fiancé.
00:15:34What fiancé?
00:15:36Princess Dima.
00:15:44I only went there to achieve the royal wedding.
00:15:46And this is what he did to me when I refused to give it to him.
00:15:49That is a lie!
00:15:50Take him away!
00:15:52You don't believe him, do you, Ari?
00:15:56Ari?
00:15:57Ari?
00:16:00Ari!
00:16:02Ari!
00:16:11Comfortable, cousin?
00:16:12You scoundrel!
00:16:14Woo!
00:16:16It was you that put those brutes on Dima.
00:16:19What do you care?
00:16:20Besides, you've got your American Barbie princess now anyway.
00:16:24What happened to you?
00:16:26We used to be like brothers.
00:16:28If we were brothers, then there wouldn't be a problem.
00:16:31I'd already have the crown.
00:16:33That's what this is about.
00:16:36Discredited me in order to steal my birthright.
00:16:38It's just as much my birthright as it is yours.
00:16:41My father should have fought for what he's rightfully his.
00:16:44He was a younger twin!
00:16:45By what?
00:16:45Twelve minutes, was it?
00:16:47Your father was only given the airship because he was the favorite son.
00:16:50And you are willing to destroy our family over such nonsense?
00:16:58I am.
00:17:00But it doesn't have to go that way, cousin.
00:17:03Simply relinquish your claim to the throne to me and I'll drop the charges.
00:17:08They won't stand anyway.
00:17:09Oh, they will.
00:17:11I have every High Court judge in my back pocket.
00:17:15If you even try and take this to trial, I will ruin you.
00:17:35I will ruin you.
00:17:39I love you.
00:17:40I love you.
00:17:52reach the chicken pen but it's all out ahead leave a message and I'll clock you back
00:18:16so
00:18:42That's going to take some getting used to.
00:19:04It's an honor to finally meet you, Your Majesty.
00:19:07I wish I could say the same.
00:19:10It's good that you're here, though. Sign this.
00:19:15An annulment agreement?
00:19:17Well, I presume your ridiculous marriage has not been consummated yet due to my son's situation.
00:19:24Sign the contract and let's end this foolishness.
00:19:27I can't.
00:19:29You can, and you will.
00:19:32No. Edward promised me that he'd pay for my sister's cancer tuition and I can't let her down.
00:19:38Well, if it's just the money you're here for, have it.
00:19:48This feels wrong.
00:19:50Either you sign or we force you to.
00:19:54Trust me, we still keep some nasty traditions in this palace.
00:20:17You asked me to find a bride worthy of the crown. So I did.
00:20:21The girls are commoners.
00:20:24No!
00:20:24Father.
00:20:25She is my wife.
00:20:28I will not let you change that.
00:20:40I'm so sorry for today.
00:20:42I don't want your apologies.
00:20:45I want the truth.
00:20:48Did you hurt Princess Dima?
00:20:51No.
00:20:54My cousin Marcus is trying to smear my reputation.
00:20:57Why should I believe you?
00:21:00Why do you think you're here, Ari?
00:21:03I don't know.
00:21:05I was supposed to marry Princess Dima for political reasons.
00:21:10When she cheated on me, I made a vow to only marry the person that I wanted.
00:21:15And then I found you.
00:21:17We apparently know each other.
00:21:19Then give me a chance.
00:21:22I saw how you would go to any length to save your sister.
00:21:25And it resonated with me because...
00:21:30I lost my mother to cancer.
00:21:34Oh, Edward.
00:21:36Ari, I fell in love with your humanity.
00:21:41And now I'm asking that you trust in mine.
00:21:44I'm innocent.
00:21:47Edward, you're shaking.
00:22:06I never kissed the bride.
00:22:10It's still our wedding day for another five minutes.
00:22:32Wow.
00:22:34This hospital is amazing.
00:22:36I can't believe you did all of this for any of my family, Edward.
00:22:40I can't wait to tell them that we're married.
00:22:47Mom?
00:22:49Mom?
00:22:51What's wrong?
00:22:56I'm...
00:22:57At least in a coma.
00:23:11So you ran off to get hitched while your sister fights for her life?
00:23:15It wasn't like that.
00:23:17What big shiny rings suggest otherwise?
00:23:21Edward is paying for Henley's treatment.
00:23:23He's the reason that she's in this hospital.
00:23:25Why?
00:23:27What does he get out of it?
00:23:29Me.
00:23:31You sold yourself to him?
00:23:34Is that what you're telling me?
00:23:36Friendly, Mom.
00:23:39Friendly.
00:23:45This is Dr. Mortimer.
00:23:47My private physician.
00:23:49I recommend we perform a stem cell transplant right away.
00:23:53It's risky, but it could save Henley's life.
00:23:57Ari, your medical record shows you could be an ideal donor.
00:24:01Just show me where to sign, Doc.
00:24:03I don't even know this person.
00:24:04She could be a quack.
00:24:06If Edward chose Simmons, who do I?
00:24:09We will get both of you prepped for surgery immediately.
00:24:27Mom?
00:24:28Well, sweetheart in here. Have some water.
00:24:33He hasn't left your side.
00:24:36I'm so sorry about before.
00:24:39I was just struggling so much without you here.
00:24:43Henley.
00:24:44She's still sleeping.
00:24:46But the surgery was a success.
00:24:50I can't believe what you did for your sister.
00:24:53Selling yourself to this man.
00:24:56What they're saying about him.
00:24:59In the papers.
00:25:01It's all lies, Mom.
00:25:02Mom, someone's trying to get him.
00:25:05Doctor.
00:25:07Ari's awake.
00:25:08Ron look.
00:25:12Ebert!
00:25:17Ebert!
00:25:21Mom!
00:25:23Come on, mom!
00:25:29Ebert!
00:25:31Oh.
00:25:38Look at me!
00:25:43Ellen!
00:25:52Fucking drop it, Bob!
00:26:03I'm not you, pal.
00:26:07That wasn't very nice.
00:26:09Field trip's over.
00:26:11We need to get you and the princess to a safe house.
00:26:13Now!
00:26:37How are you feeling now?
00:26:40Who the hell were they, Edward?
00:26:42They must have been sent by Marcus.
00:26:44He wants the throne that badly that he'd try and kill his own cousin.
00:26:49Try to put it out your mind.
00:26:50I can't.
00:26:53I can't stop thinking about how close they can be losing you.
00:26:56And I nearly lost you.
00:26:59You would have sacrificed yourself to save me.
00:27:03Why?
00:27:04You know why?
00:27:08Say it, Laurie.
00:27:12Say it.
00:27:14Because I love you, Edward.
00:27:19And I can't let you go.
00:27:36Take care.
00:27:48Take care.
00:27:52Take care.
00:27:54Take care.

00:34:02you've not only brought this family into disrepute Edward but the crown itself
00:34:08you really believe the accusations
00:34:10will they tally with your reckless decision to marry this commoner
00:34:15I'll give you one last chance to end this farce
00:34:18sign the annulment and we'll deny everything to the press
00:34:24no
00:34:26Ari is my wife
00:34:28now and forever
00:34:32so be it
00:34:33your marriage stands
00:34:35you honor me father
00:34:37I'm not only father to you
00:34:39I'm father to this nation
00:34:41and I will not have you jeopardize the crown
00:34:45Xavier
00:34:47you shall be my successor
00:34:49and the new crown prince of Estria
00:34:56you can't do that
00:34:58it goes against convention but these are unconventional times
00:35:01no you can't
00:35:03do that because I don't want it
00:35:05it's not about what you want
00:35:08we're at war with your cousin
00:35:09and maybe with Latina soon too
00:35:12we need a show of strength
00:35:14giving in to Marcus's games
00:35:16that's a show of strength
00:35:17it wipes the slate clean
00:35:21Xavier will be the new face of the monarchy
00:35:24you'll marry a woman of stature
00:35:27and sire and heir
00:35:32are you blind?
00:35:37or do you just ignore what's right in front of you?
00:35:39what are you talking about now?
00:35:41I won't marry
00:35:44I won't have an heir
00:35:46and I won't be king
00:35:49because I'm gay
00:35:53the monarchy is above sexuality
00:35:56Xavier
00:35:57it's your crown too tight around the cranium
00:36:00I'd rather announce all my titles
00:36:02than continue living this lie
00:36:05what have I done to deserve these boys?
00:36:08you know that's a good question
00:36:09you have two incredible brave sons
00:36:13but you didn't do anything to deserve them
00:36:16I'm warning you
00:36:17no honestly
00:36:18it's okay
00:36:19I've got this
00:36:20you think I'm scared of you Maxwell?
00:36:23I'm not
00:36:24I'm just so disappointed
00:36:26you see I never met my dad
00:36:29and when we first met
00:36:30I thought I would finally feel
00:36:32what it's like to have a real father
00:36:34and now honestly I'm
00:36:37I'm
00:36:38I wish I'd never found out
00:36:41you say you're father to the nation
00:36:43you're not even a good father to your own sons
00:36:56thank you
00:37:06what's this?
00:37:08oh that's black pudding
00:37:10it's um

00:37:16no no it's fine
00:37:17I'll try it
00:37:20actually I wanted to apologize for yesterday about the stack thing
00:37:26after our argument with your dad
00:37:27I kind of
00:37:28I realized how different our outbringings were
00:37:31it wasn't fair to judge you for that
00:37:35I appreciate that
00:37:37and um
00:37:39what you said to him too

00:40:03without her
00:40:10she's an inspiration?

00:40:12our next queen
00:40:14has a lot to live up to
00:40:21good evening
00:40:22tonight I'm joined by
00:40:23prince Edward's new bride
00:40:25princess Ariana
00:40:26welcome your royal highness
00:40:28good evening
00:40:30Esther was shocked to learn
00:40:31about your recent marriage
00:40:32could you tell us more
00:40:33about how you met
00:40:34prince Edward?
00:40:35we met in my hometown
00:40:37of queens
00:40:37Edward found that very
00:40:40serendipitous
00:40:42princess Dima
00:40:42alerted that you were working
00:40:44as a prostitute there
00:40:45no that is not true
00:40:46so you are calling
00:40:48your fellow princess a liar
00:40:49she was misinformed
00:40:51to be clear
00:40:52did prince Edward
00:40:53ever paid for your services?
00:40:55no not
00:40:56not in that way
00:40:57so he has paid you
00:40:58I'd rather not discuss
00:40:59ma'am
00:41:00the public has a right to know
00:41:01who their new princess
00:41:02really is
00:41:04so I would ask you again
00:41:05did prince Edward
00:41:07ever pay you for your services?
00:41:26all right yes
00:41:27he paid for me
00:41:28I was his mail order bride
00:41:30and maybe that's just as much
00:41:32as scandal but
00:41:33marrying prince Edward
00:41:34is the best thing
00:41:35that I have ever done
00:41:39my sister was fighting cancer
00:41:41and I needed the money
00:41:42to save her
00:41:43and he gave me that
00:41:45but he gave me so much more
00:41:48I'm not talking about the crown
00:41:49or the castles
00:41:51I'm talking about his love
00:41:53and his kindness
00:41:54and his respect
00:41:58and yes
00:41:59I am calling princess Demur a liar
00:42:01I don't know why she wants to ruin us
00:42:03maybe she's bitter
00:42:04because Edward didn't forgive her
00:42:06after she was caught cheating on him
00:42:08with prince Marcus
00:42:09you can ask her about that
00:42:12but what I do know
00:42:13is Edward is a good man
00:42:15and yes this started out
00:42:17as a transaction for sure
00:42:18I needed the money to save my sister
00:42:21and he needed to be saved
00:42:23from marrying a woman
00:42:24that he didn't love
00:42:25but now my sister is getting better
00:42:29and Edward has a wife
00:42:30who couldn't love him more
00:42:44it's about time
00:42:45you started fighting back
00:42:48nice performance
00:42:50really appealing to the old heartstrings
00:42:52it wasn't a performance
00:42:54it's always a performance princess
00:42:57only the people
00:42:58they don't want love stories
00:43:00they want dirt
00:43:02that's why I'll win
00:43:03because I'm not afraid
00:43:04to get my hands dirty
00:43:06as we discovered in New York
00:43:08are you referring to the
00:43:10assassination attempt?
00:43:12in fact I'm the only reason
00:43:13you're still breathing
00:43:16what?
00:43:18it was Athena who wanted you dead
00:43:20but I convinced King Aithan to
00:43:23hold off
00:43:25for now
00:43:27see he's willing to let you live
00:43:28so long as you
00:43:30give my airship to you
00:43:32clever boy
00:43:35make all the threats you want
00:43:37I will prove my innocence in court
00:43:42oh even if you are somehow able to convince
00:43:44it's my judge
00:43:45that deem is the one lying
00:43:47you won't convince her father
00:43:48if you're found not guilty
00:43:51he'll simply declare war
00:43:54you just can't win
00:43:55your highness
00:43:57we get in record engagements
00:43:58on our socials
00:43:59people are going crazy

00:50:17and it's not what it looked like
00:50:47looks like this creep grabbed me for like half a second before I threw him off I'm surprised
00:50:55anyone had a chance to take a photo Edward speak to me even if that is true this is on
00:51:05every front
00:51:06page the day before my trial begins well Dean Marcus must be behind it it's another smear
00:51:12campaign it's working this will lose us the country's support just when we need it the most
00:51:39court is now in session the prosecution may call its first witness thank you your honor
00:51:47the prosecution calls Captain Harry Percy to the stand
00:52:00do you swear to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth I do
00:52:09Captain Percy you are Prince Edward's bodyguard are you not I am
00:52:16you go everywhere with him don't you I do did you go with him to visit Princess Demon
00:52:22on the night of your soul I did Captain Percy did you witness Prince Edward physically attack
00:52:32Princess Demon that night I did
00:52:48I just don't understand where Percy would lie yeah I know it sucks he was really hot I'm really not
00:52:57a
00:52:57mood hen I'm sorry sorry I don't know what you want me to say I mean Percy clearly worship you
00:53:03guys
00:53:04I guess that human trash bag Marcus probably got to him the same way he got to the judge
00:53:10huh what the bruises we know Edward didn't give them to Dima sure it was Marcus yeah but we always
00:53:18assume they were working together right but what if Marcus was manipulating Dima forcing her to blame her
00:53:25injuries on Edward oh my god hen I can kiss you right now oh I need to go and speak
00:53:34to my fellow princess
00:53:36it's judgment day for Prince Edward and his bodyguards demon testimony can prove the deciding
00:53:41factor in the judge verdict and here she comes Princess Harry just listen to those rules
00:53:50she's of course caught up in her own adult scandal and this could be as well a dark day for
00:53:56a world couple
00:54:04Dima what do you want it's not too late to stop this why would I want to do that well
00:54:12I believe it's
00:54:12Prince Marcus who's been hurting you I'm forced you to blame on Edward facing at the beating or worse but
00:54:19it's okay you don't have to be scared anymore I can make you safe
00:54:24oh Ari thank you
00:54:31thank you
00:54:41it's the best joke I've ever heard
00:54:47you poor naive girl did you really think my brain-dead fiance was behind all this
00:54:53I just made him believe it was all his idea our affair in the throne room bribing the judge
00:55:00I even had to force him to hit me he thinks this whole charade is about winning him the throne
00:55:09and what is it really about
00:55:13bringing down the piercements
00:55:15for generations they've looked down their noses at little Athena
00:55:20we've been invaded and attacked too many times to count
00:55:25and yet my father sent me here to marry your loser prince
00:55:31so I decided to use Marcus to divide the family
00:55:34bring them down from the inside
00:55:38I didn't factor you in of course but clearly I needn't have worried about Edward's dollar store princess
00:55:44you'll soon be forgotten
00:55:46a side note in the downfall of the Estrian royal family
00:55:51oh
00:55:53chop chop
00:55:54time to hear your husband's guilty verdict

00:55:57oh darling
00:55:59I already have
00:56:02oh here they are
00:56:07princess demon did you know that this conversation with princess Ari was recorded and live streamed on other social media
00:56:15what who's the naive one now
00:56:17oh you devious little bitch
00:56:22I learned from the best
00:56:26if you ever threaten my family again
00:56:29I will put you in a box smaller than the cell that you're headed for
00:56:34okay
00:56:36you all right
00:56:36yes where's Edward
00:56:39the judge has found him guilty
00:56:43wait
00:56:45I have new evidence that proves that prince Edward is innocent
00:56:48I've already passed my judgment
00:56:51the prince is guilty as charged
00:56:53well your honor
00:56:54I also have evidence that you were bribed into making that verdict
00:56:58how dare you
00:57:00stop right there
00:57:03this sham is over
00:57:05you hold no authority here
00:57:08this is the crown court is it not
00:57:10I am the living embodiment of the crown and I revoke your spurious guilty verdict
00:57:16and I charge you
00:57:18prince Marcus and princess dimer with treason
00:57:22arrest them
00:57:23save me
00:57:26save me

00:58:03You want to see us, Father?
00:58:07I owe you an apology, Edward.
00:58:10You're never capable of such violence.
00:58:11You've always been a man of peace.
00:58:14And, Larry, you share the same compassion and charisma as Edward's mother had in spades.
00:58:21You'll make a great queen.
00:58:23Thank you, Father.
00:58:25Of course, we do still have to work on the decorum.
00:58:28We have plenty of time for that, Pops.
00:58:32Actually, the public are thirsty for new blood and, well, I'm ready for a rest.
00:58:38So I've decided to abdicate the throne to you two, young upstarts.
00:58:43Good luck.
00:58:45Good luck.
00:58:49Good luck.
00:59:00You're royal highness?
00:59:02We're going to New York, Percy, and we need protection.
00:59:06I might let you down.
00:59:08Forget about it.
00:59:09You were looking out for your family, and I get that.
00:59:12So shave that stubble, soldier.
00:59:14We got a plane to catch.
00:59:18Yes, ma'am.
00:59:24Good morning.
00:59:26We're very happy to...
00:59:28Sorry.
00:59:30We're very happy to welcome you all here today.
00:59:32As you know, my sister recently beat cancer.
00:59:39It was a hard battle, and to pay for it, I became a princess.
00:59:44But that's not really an option for most people.
00:59:48So, that's why we've opened Hemley's House,
00:59:51a place where cancer patients can get free support throughout their treatment.
00:59:57Ah, so, um, please welcome the woman of the hour, Hemley Douglas.
01:00:05I now declare Hemley's House open!
01:00:15Well, I can't believe you made yourself first patient of Hemley's House.
01:00:19Oh, God.
01:00:21I can't go through this again.
01:00:23Quit your bellyaching, Mom.
01:00:25Not every bellyache is a tumor.
01:00:26Do you ever feel like you liked her better when she was in a coma?
01:00:31Well, something did come up on the test results, folks.
01:00:36It's cancer.
01:00:37We cursed.
01:00:38No, it's not cancer.
01:00:40Kidney stones.
01:00:41Liver disease.
01:00:42Mom.
01:00:43You're having a royal baby, Ari.
01:00:45Oh, my goodness.
01:00:47Oh, my goodness.
01:01:01Our lives are about to change forever.
01:01:04In more ways than you know.
01:01:15I love you.
01:01:16I love you, too.
01:01:18I love you.
01:01:20I love you, too.
01:01:37I love you, too.
01:01:37I love you, too.
