00:00:00Previously, on The Serpent Queen.
00:00:17You're not leaving us, are you?
00:00:18Things have changed.
00:00:19But with one of your sons being medically unfit,
00:00:21and the other one in possession of sexual needs,
00:00:23I couldn't possibly meet.
00:00:24How long does he have to live?
00:00:26Difficult to say.
00:00:27Weren't you tired of being a toe-back uncle?
00:00:29It's my position.
00:00:30Doesn't have to be.
00:00:32A marriage between yourself and the Princess Margot
00:00:35will create a purely Catholic line.
00:00:37The Catholic League would like the Duke of Guise to be king.
00:00:40Why not take the side of love?
00:00:42Love?
00:00:43Will you allow it?
00:00:44I've agreed to go with Montmorency to meet Edith and broker a peace.
00:00:47How did Montmorency persuade Sister Edith to meet with you?
00:00:51He was baptized into her faith, as I plan to be.
00:00:54And what do you have to offer in exchange for this peace you seek?
00:00:57My daughter Margot, as soon as the marriage is consummated,
00:01:01I will sign the Regency over to you.
00:01:27♪♪
00:01:37♪♪
00:01:47♪♪
00:01:57-♪♪
00:01:59-♪♪
00:02:01-♪♪
00:02:03-♪♪
00:02:05-♪♪
00:02:07Shoot.
00:02:13Run!
00:02:14Ahh!
00:02:15Ahh!
00:02:17Ahhh!
00:02:19What is it?
00:02:20I will never survive such cruelty.
00:02:23Tell me and I will help you.
00:02:25I am being forced to marry our cousin Henry.
00:02:30Mother arranged it with Sister Edith.
00:02:32No. No.
00:02:33Yes.
00:02:35because I will not allow it, and I am king.
00:02:41My darling Margot, you will always have me to protect you.
00:02:45♪♪
00:02:51♪♪
00:02:57Hello.
00:02:59♪♪
00:03:01You must be disappointed.
00:03:03Margot is engaged to an idiot.
00:03:05Idiot cousin, so I will never be king.
00:03:08Worst of all, there's nothing you can do about it.
00:03:10What about your brother?
00:03:12Have you no pity left for him?
00:03:14You heard what those fanatics intend to do to him.
00:03:20Don't you see it's over?
00:03:22You're lost.
00:03:24Best thing you can do is retire from court.
00:03:27I'll send my brother away somewhere they won't find him
00:03:29so he can get whatever this is out of his system
00:03:31and I can go back to doing my job.
00:03:33If this marriage goes through,
00:03:35the Bourbon line will succeed the Valois,
00:03:38and they will send us all into exile,
00:03:40where there will be nowhere for your brother
00:03:42to hide from the League's vengeance.
00:03:44If they kill him, they'll have to kill me, too.
00:03:47And what use would that be?
00:03:49Both my sons dead, when the solution is so simple.
00:03:56The solution?
00:03:59Make the marriage impossible
00:04:01by taking Margot's virginity.
00:04:04I will spread word that Margot has been sullied by you,
00:04:07but since I presume this is not the case,
00:04:10you must write her,
00:04:12asking permission to visit her chamber.
00:04:14She will say yes, because the poor girl is in heat.
00:04:18You're serious.
00:04:20I could not be more serious.
00:04:22Take her virtue,
00:04:24and they will have no choice but to marry her to you.
00:04:27As a fallen woman, yes, she'll be shunned, social pariah.
00:04:31At least she will have more time for her books.
00:04:35Unless, of course, you think her honor
00:04:39is more important than your brother's life.
00:04:43But I don't think you can live with that, do you?
00:04:53We're burning hell for this.
00:04:55Oh, my dear Francois.
00:04:57This is hell.
00:04:59Haven't you noticed?
00:05:11I've given the matter some thought and made my decision.
00:05:13Leave us.
00:05:20Margot will not be marrying our cousin.
00:05:22He's not right in the head.
00:05:23Charles, I know how fond you are of your sister.
00:05:28You do not relish the thought of losing her to another.
00:05:31But it is what is best for the country.
00:05:33What an odd thing to say.
00:05:35I am her brother and always will be.
00:05:37I could never lose my sister.
00:05:39The fact of the matter is, my baptism at the hands of Sister Edith
00:05:42will ensure the loyalty of all those who have protested the crown
00:05:45and unite the French people.
00:05:47Therefore, this marriage is unnecessary.
00:05:49So I am going to say to you what almost no one ever does.
00:05:52No.
00:05:54You cannot have what you want.
00:05:56Please convey the bad news to Sister Edith's camp.
00:06:00Charles.
00:06:03Listen to me.
00:06:08The royal wedding is the only way to prevent civil war.
00:06:12What does that mean?
00:06:14My conversion will bring peace.
00:06:17Well, it would if things were different.
00:06:19And I wanted you to live free of the burden for as long as possible.
00:06:23What burden?
00:06:25I had no choice but to offer Margot's wedding to Sister Edith.
00:06:30Nothing else would appease her.
00:06:35Because she knows you are dying.
00:06:40And you know it too, don't you?
00:06:47Yes.
00:06:53How long do I have?
00:06:56Depends.
00:06:57Months? Weeks?
00:06:58How much strain you put yourself under.
00:07:05Well.
00:07:12If that's the case,
00:07:14why should I care?
00:07:16If my baptism is not enough,
00:07:18they can have their war and France can burn.
00:07:20You don't mean that.
00:07:21Actually, I do.
00:07:23If I am a dying king, I am entitled to be a resolute one.
00:07:26I will not allow you to ruin Margot's life the way you have ruined mine.
00:07:30Because I know that's what you really want.
00:07:32For whatever fucked up reason I cannot yet ascertain.
00:07:35Find something else to amuse yourself.
00:07:44A letter from the Duke of Guise addressed to Margot.
00:08:05A letter from the Duke of Guise addressed to Margot.
00:08:14What would you like me to do?
00:08:18Deliver it.
00:08:20Are you sure?
00:08:22Quite.
00:08:24As you wish.
00:08:34Who am I
00:08:36to stand in the way of love?
00:08:40You should eat.
00:08:42I told you I'm not hungry.
00:08:48Run me a bath.
00:08:55Thank you for meeting me.
00:08:57Yes, your letter said you had news that would distress us both.
00:09:00Yes.
00:09:02I come to you today not as a queen,
00:09:04but as a mother.
00:09:07As a mother.
00:09:09Of course.
00:09:10Now please tell me what troubles you and how I can be of help.
00:09:13Well,
00:09:15I find it difficult to say.
00:09:17Somehow I feel you will persevere.
00:09:20Though we hope to be
00:09:22related to become sisters in a way,
00:09:24I fear this union between our children may not come to pass.
00:09:29Why the lot?
00:09:31It has come to my attention through reliable sources that your daughter is
00:09:37I'm loathe to even say it
00:09:41impure.
00:09:43Impure?
00:09:45Sullied by another man,
00:09:47specifically the Duke of Guise.
00:09:49I can see you're as shocked as I am by the news.
00:09:51Please know this is a terrible blow for us both.
00:09:56You must tell me where you heard such fanciness.
00:09:59Aren't you a little geese informed me?
00:10:02As an act of charity, I'm sure.
00:10:04I can imagine under usual circumstances,
00:10:06she would like nothing more than to see us both humiliated.
00:10:10But,
00:10:12she put that to one side
00:10:14and we spoke one mother to another as I come to you today.
00:10:20It is a most sacred sisterhood.
00:10:22And I can only pray that the accusations she makes are untrue.
00:10:27We do what we can for our children.
00:10:29Still they disappoint us.
00:10:30Yes.
00:10:32My son has never shamed me in the slightest,
00:10:34but I imagine it must be a very painful experience.
00:10:40Thank you for your sympathy.
00:10:42And rest assured,
00:10:44I intend to get to the bottom of this.
00:10:46A full inquiry,
00:10:48followed by a thorough medical examination
00:10:50to determine any stain on Margot's womanhood.
00:10:53And if there is any truth to this,
00:10:55rest assured I will be the first to call off the ceremony
00:10:58and pack my daughter off to a nunnery.
00:11:00I think it would be for the best.
00:11:03But even if a medical examination were to clear your daughter's name,
00:11:07any, I mean, how should I say,
00:11:09impropriety,
00:11:11would make it impossible for me to condone such a union.
00:11:15It is essential that any marriage must be entered by a woman
00:11:18with total ignorance of the opposite sex.
00:11:21It is the only way to get through the unpleasantness that follows.
00:11:25Of course.
00:11:27Although there are some that might argue
00:11:29that a little experience makes for a better wife,
00:11:31I am not one of them.
00:11:35In the meantime,
00:11:37I hope you don't think me frivolous,
00:11:39but at times like this,
00:11:41I like to take my mind off things
00:11:43by visiting the shops in Paris, incognito,
00:11:46for a little bit of retail therapy.
00:11:48Really?
00:11:50Yes. Perhaps the austerity of your faith makes you judge me.
00:11:53No. I mean, yes, of course.
00:11:56It's just you won't believe it,
00:11:58but Queen Elizabeth likes to do the same thing.
00:12:01Does she really?
00:12:04I've no idea.
00:12:10Might you be tempted to join me?
00:12:12Oh, I must confess,
00:12:14it might prove a welcome break from camping.
00:12:16Well, that's settled, then.
00:12:18You can spend the night in town, and I will join you tomorrow,
00:12:21after I've gotten to the bottom of this totally unpleasant business.
00:12:24I look forward to it.
00:12:27Not as much as I do.
00:12:38You all right?
00:12:41All things considered.
00:12:44Perhaps you have heard.
00:12:47You will be king soon.
00:12:55Well, I wouldn't be so sure about that.
00:13:05It's like you said.
00:13:09Who wants a fag for a king, eh?
00:13:16What difference does it make?
00:13:19It's all an accident of birth.
00:13:21Do you really think that?
00:13:23Of course I do.
00:13:27Always have done.
00:13:40I'll leave you two to it.
00:13:52It brings me pleasure
00:13:54to see you two comforting one another.
00:13:56Does it?
00:13:59Do you remember when he was small?
00:14:02Used to follow you around everywhere.
00:14:05Like a shadow.
00:14:07He worshipped you.
00:14:09Times change.
00:14:13What do you want?
00:14:15I gave you my answer. You won't persuade me.
00:14:17There is another reason why I'm here.
00:14:20Another reason why you must support the marriage
00:14:22between your sister and Henry Bourbon.
00:14:24I was reluctant to share it with you before,
00:14:26but now I feel you must be told.
00:14:28There's always another reason with you.
00:14:35I am concerned for your sister's virtue.
00:14:38It has come to my attention
00:14:40that she is infatuated with the Duke of Guise.
00:14:42And we must protect her from this girlish fantasy
00:14:44or he will be the ruin of her.
00:14:46They're just friends.
00:14:48Well...
00:14:50It may surprise you to hear
00:14:52that at this very moment
00:14:54she entertains him in her chambers.
00:14:56One of your spies tell you that, did they?
00:14:59They did.
00:15:01Well...
00:15:03I don't believe you.
00:15:05I hope you are right.
00:15:09But there is only one way to find out.
00:15:18♪ ♪
00:15:48♪ ♪
00:16:19♪ ♪
00:16:23How dare you?
00:16:25What are you doing here?
00:16:27Get out.
00:16:29You have no right.
00:16:31Get out!
00:16:42You have no right!
00:16:45You are just like the rest of them,
00:16:47your friends.
00:16:49No, Charles.
00:16:51Perverting my feelings to get what you want.
00:16:53Filling my head with what you think I want to believe.
00:16:55I'm not the one manipulating you.
00:16:57Actually, you're worse
00:16:59because you pretend to be different,
00:17:01not part of the decadence of court,
00:17:03but you are just a spoiled child.
00:17:05No.
00:17:07For once, you will do as you were told.
00:17:09You will marry Henry Bourbon for the good of our country.
00:17:11He won't have me now.
00:17:14He will if I tell him to.
00:17:18Charles, this is our mother's doing.
00:17:20Ah!
00:17:22I am tired of your filthy lies!
00:17:24No, no, no!
00:17:26You will do as I tell you
00:17:28because I am my own man,
00:17:30as you told me to be.
00:17:32You will marry our feckless cousin,
00:17:34not just for peace,
00:17:36but because the thought of you suffering in such a marriage
00:17:38brings me pleasure.
00:17:40No, Charles!
00:17:42No, Charles!
00:17:45Abby.
00:17:51Charles, please!
00:18:13Help me.
00:18:15Please help me.
00:18:17I sincerely wish
00:18:19that there was something I could do for you.
00:18:26Believe it or not,
00:18:28I meant it from the bottom of my heart.
00:18:43No!
00:18:49No!
00:18:51No!
00:19:12No!
00:19:24May I help you?
00:19:26I was to meet with the Queen Mother.
00:19:28Oh, a most valued customer.
00:19:30If she'd sent word, she would be slightly delayed.
00:19:32No shame.
00:19:34Sorry, do I know you? You look familiar.
00:19:36Oh, I'm sure all shop girls
00:19:38bear some resemblance to one another.
00:19:40Yes, I suppose so.
00:19:42Oh, if you don't mind me saying,
00:19:44you have the most beautiful hands.
00:19:46They always betray us, don't they?
00:19:48Oh, but judging by yours,
00:19:50you might be a maiden of 18.
00:19:52Oh, no.
00:19:54I do make an effort, now you mention it.
00:19:56Well, then perhaps I can interest you
00:19:58in a pair of travelling gloves.
00:20:00They are the latest thing.
00:20:02Soft Iberian leather
00:20:04in Tyrrhenian green.
00:20:11Oh, they are lovely.
00:20:13Oh.
00:20:18Oh, fine embroidery.
00:20:27If you'll excuse me,
00:20:29I'll see if there's anything else to do.
00:20:31Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
00:20:33I'm sorry.
00:20:35I'm sorry.
00:20:37I'm sorry.
00:20:39I'll see if there's anything else that might tempt you.
00:20:41Yes, do that, yes.
00:20:43Oh.
00:20:45Ah.
00:20:49I thought you were burning.
00:20:57Hello?
00:20:59Oh, shit.
00:21:03Hello?
00:21:09Hello?
00:21:11Help me!
00:21:13Help me!
00:21:15Oh, God!
00:21:17Help me!
00:21:35Let Jeanne d'Albray
00:21:37always be remembered for her humble life,
00:21:39committed to the true faith
00:21:41until her last days.
00:21:43Amen.
00:21:45Amen.
00:22:07Amen.
00:22:11The court of King Charles IX
00:22:13wishes to offer its condolences
00:22:15for your loss.
00:22:17I bet it fucking does.
00:22:19Where's your mistress?
00:22:21Obviously she doesn't have the courage to come here
00:22:23and take responsibility for what she's fucking done!
00:22:25Catherine expresses her deeper sympathies
00:22:27for the untimely death of the Queen of Navarre,
00:22:29but denies any hand in it.
00:22:31Well, she would say that, wouldn't she?
00:22:33Death by shopping.
00:22:35Catherine to me.
00:22:37It is the Queen Mother's desire that the wedding proceed.
00:22:39She believes it's what the Queen of Navarre
00:22:41would have wanted.
00:22:43She said as much at their last meeting.
00:22:45I'm sorry, but
00:22:47I don't have a good feeling about
00:22:49any of this.
00:22:51I really think we should call off this wedding.
00:22:53Believe me when I say
00:22:55you can't trust Catherine.
00:22:57Oh, she is an indescribably
00:22:59dangerous woman.
00:23:01Mm.
00:23:05The Queen Mother understands
00:23:07we will need assurance of our safe passage
00:23:09if we are to travel to the capital,
00:23:11given what has happened to the Protestant Queen of Navarre.
00:23:13She would expect nothing less.
00:23:15To that end,
00:23:17I bring with me today
00:23:19the Regency of France,
00:23:21signed by the Queen Mother
00:23:23to Sister Edith.
00:23:27The Queen Mother,
00:23:29Catherine de' Medici,
00:23:31has relinquished
00:23:33her regency.
00:23:35However, it is my understanding the regency
00:23:37will not be mine until the King signs.
00:23:39And he will do so once the wedding ceremony
00:23:41is complete.
00:23:43Let me see that.
00:23:45This is absolute
00:23:47bollocks.
00:23:49This is never going to happen.
00:23:51If this is reassurance enough,
00:23:53then the Queen Mother looks forward to welcoming you at the wedding.
00:23:55What do you think, Henry?
00:23:57We stand to gain
00:23:59a great deal from this offer.
00:24:01And I happen to like Margot,
00:24:03so I think it's worth the risk.
00:24:05Henry,
00:24:07you have learnt
00:24:09an enormous amount in a short time,
00:24:11but you do not know Catherine
00:24:13like we do.
00:24:15And yet he possesses the faith
00:24:17which you lack.
00:24:28Tell the Queen Mother the wedding will proceed.
00:24:30Oh, my God.
00:24:32Certainly.
00:24:38And with God as our guide,
00:24:41we will travel together
00:24:43to the palace
00:24:45to celebrate our victory.
00:24:51Fucking sideways,
00:24:53she's done it.
00:24:55She beat Catherine.
00:24:57You were right.
00:25:03Enjoying the peace and quiet?
00:25:09In fact, I'm actually considering
00:25:11retiring from court.
00:25:13That would be a waste of your skills.
00:25:15Perhaps you deserve
00:25:17the rest.
00:25:19I came to tell you
00:25:21my work is done.
00:25:23Therefore, with a heavy heart,
00:25:25it's time for me to leave you.
00:25:29I'm sorry to hear that.
00:25:31Where will you go?
00:25:33I must seek my fortune
00:25:35in America.
00:25:37Only assassins and usurpers
00:25:39wait for me in Florence.
00:25:41I, too, see the appeal of escape.
00:25:43Tell me again
00:25:45about the investment opportunity in Florida.
00:25:47Or am I too late?
00:25:49Well,
00:25:51as it turns out,
00:25:53I've already found an investor.
00:25:55Hmm.
00:25:57Well, I'm happy for you.
00:25:59I shall save my regrets for myself.
00:26:01Well, that doesn't mean
00:26:03there won't be further opportunities
00:26:05as the project develops.
00:26:07I hope so.
00:26:09The new world needs people like you.
00:26:15Well,
00:26:17I'll send word to you
00:26:19once I cross the seas.
00:26:21But...
00:26:25I want you to know
00:26:29I have greatly enjoyed
00:26:31my time with you,
00:26:33my sister, Katerina.
00:26:35As have I, my brother.
00:26:41You cannot leave immediately.
00:26:43I won't allow it.
00:26:45You must receive
00:26:47a proper Valois send-off.
00:26:49Permit my daughter's wedding banquet
00:26:51to be our last meal together.
00:26:53I wouldn't miss it.
00:27:03I never thought this day would come.
00:27:05Isn't it more accurate to say
00:27:07you never thought about this day ever?
00:27:09He's right, Antoine.
00:27:11You barely knew you had a son this time last year.
00:27:13But I feel
00:27:15I owe my son a piece of advice
00:27:17before he enters into this
00:27:19political marriage
00:27:21full of peaks and valleys,
00:27:23of blue skies,
00:27:25and inclement weather.
00:27:27Allow me, Antoine.
00:27:29Henry,
00:27:33there's only really one thing that you need to know.
00:27:35Women
00:27:37cannot be trusted.
00:27:39They lure you in with their fragrant ways,
00:27:41make you feel loved,
00:27:43like the way you've always wanted to be loved,
00:27:45and then crush your heart
00:27:47with the thoughtlessness of swatting a fly.
00:27:49Are you talking about Queen Elizabeth?
00:27:51Yes.
00:27:55Amongst others.
00:27:57But just keep in mind,
00:27:59all the hopes and dreams of the Bourbon line
00:28:01are riding on this, so don't fuck it up.
00:28:03All right, Louis?
00:28:05Leave it to me, Uncle.
00:28:07Louis, might I have a moment alone with my son?
00:28:09Of course.
00:28:17Henry, I just wanted to say
00:28:19I'm sorry your mother isn't here.
00:28:23Thank you, Father.
00:28:25And, as it turns out,
00:28:27I'm sorry about quite a lot of things.
00:28:29Because the thing is,
00:28:31I've grown rather fond of you, Henry.
00:28:35I know I wasn't around much when you were young.
00:28:37I wasn't interested, but I can see now
00:28:39that that was my loss.
00:28:41Don't worry. I don't take it personally.
00:28:43No, of course not.
00:28:45You're not like me. You're practical.
00:28:47You've got a good head on your shoulders.
00:28:49I'm proud of you.
00:28:53But if you wanted to bow out of this whole thing now,
00:28:55hit the road,
00:28:57head for the hills,
00:28:59I'd understand. I'd support you.
00:29:01The truth is,
00:29:03we might just be in the middle
00:29:05of a massive shit show right now,
00:29:07and if anything happened to you,
00:29:11I don't think I could forgive myself.
00:29:13Oh, I see.
00:29:15You're concerned about me
00:29:17in a way you've never been before.
00:29:21That's really nice, Dad.
00:29:23Yeah. But you see,
00:29:27I like it here,
00:29:29at the centre of things,
00:29:31with the people who make the decisions
00:29:33and everyone else, all the intrigue
00:29:35and betrayal.
00:29:37And I know it frightens you,
00:29:39but it...
00:29:41it stimulates me.
00:29:45Who knew?
00:29:47And the thing is,
00:29:49I think I might be good at it,
00:29:51because, um,
00:29:53well,
00:29:55it's my observation
00:29:57that when people have strong feelings about things,
00:29:59they are at a significant
00:30:01disadvantage.
00:30:03Whereas,
00:30:05I don't have any strong feelings.
00:30:09Or any feelings at all,
00:30:11really.
00:30:13So,
00:30:15I think whatever happens,
00:30:17I'll be all right.
00:30:21Thanks for the talk, though, Dad.
00:30:25It's gonna be a great day.
00:30:31He's a total psychopath.
00:30:41Is that what you're wearing?
00:30:43What do you care?
00:30:51I want you to look your best.
00:30:53So your scheming's come to nothing, as usual?
00:30:55No, Jeanne is dead.
00:30:57Doesn't matter.
00:30:59All that matters
00:31:01is that you did what I told you to do.
00:31:05You did do what I told you to do.
00:31:09You made a woman of her.
00:31:13Excellent.
00:31:15All you have to do now
00:31:17is stand up in church in front of all those people
00:31:19and tell the truth.
00:31:21Define me in this,
00:31:23and I will personally feed your brother
00:31:25to the Catholic League.
00:31:29Do not doubt me.
00:31:51Let's go.
00:32:21Let's go.
00:32:51Let's go.
00:33:21Let's go.
00:33:45We are gathered here today
00:33:47to unite Margot
00:33:49and Henri
00:33:51in holy matrimony.
00:33:53But more importantly,
00:33:55we're here to unite
00:33:57their two great houses,
00:33:59Valois and Bourbon,
00:34:03and the faiths they represent,
00:34:05Catholic
00:34:07and Protestant.
00:34:09Now, before we proceed,
00:34:11does anyone know
00:34:13of any reason why these two
00:34:15cannot be joined together
00:34:17in sacred union?
00:34:21I believe my son
00:34:23has something to say
00:34:25regarding the purity of the bride.
00:34:39It seems my mother is mistaken.
00:34:43I don't know what you're talking about.
00:34:47In that case,
00:34:49I think we can proceed.
00:34:55Henri,
00:34:57do you take this woman
00:34:59to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:35:01I do.
00:35:03Then please nod your assent.
00:35:07Margot,
00:35:09do you take this man
00:35:11to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:35:13I do.
00:35:15Do you take this man
00:35:17to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:35:35Then,
00:35:37by the power vested in me,
00:35:39I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:35:45Hooray!
00:36:15Hooray!
00:36:41Welcome to court.
00:36:43It's time for the king
00:36:45to make my regency law.
00:36:47Of course.
00:36:49As soon as the marriage
00:36:51is consummated,
00:36:53I will make sure it is done.
00:36:59May I request that
00:37:01no weapons be carried
00:37:03into the festivities.
00:37:05You will notice that I have removed
00:37:07my guards for the duration of your stay,
00:37:09as tonight we gather
00:37:11in the spirit of peace.
00:37:41♪
00:38:07Thank you for agreeing
00:38:09If you want to see me, all you need to do is ask.
00:38:12We're all friends.
00:38:14Indeed.
00:38:22And at your behest,
00:38:24I have done everything you've asked of me.
00:38:27But in my heart of hearts,
00:38:29I do not see peace in our future.
00:38:32Once Edith ascends to the power I have granted her,
00:38:35she will burn this country to the ground.
00:38:39And you know it, too.
00:38:41Perhaps.
00:38:46But I cannot sanction her death.
00:38:51I know.
00:38:53Despite our efforts,
00:38:55it seems like the younger generation
00:38:57is determined to fuck things up in their own way.
00:39:01So what happens now?
00:39:03So what happens now?
00:39:07If I had my wish.
00:39:15I would preserve what I know to be good in you.
00:39:19What I never doubted since the day we met.
00:39:22And I would take you the fuck away from here.
00:39:26Retire from court together?
00:39:29What is left for us here?
00:39:33Catherine, will you consider it?
00:39:36If you are true to your word,
00:39:39and care for me the way you say you do,
00:39:43then meet me in the courtyard after the banquet.
00:40:03Oh, my God.
00:40:33Come on.
00:40:51Let the joust begin.
00:41:03Let the joust begin.
00:41:33Let the joust begin.
00:41:47It is done.
00:41:55Oh, that was quick.
00:41:57Yet sufficient.
00:42:00The marriage is consummated.
00:42:08The House of Valois would like you all to join us
00:42:12for a banquet in honour of the newlyweds.
00:42:29How could I explain to my daughter,
00:42:36she, who had never felt hunger,
00:42:41never felt cold, never suffered a day in her life,
00:42:45that there are worse things than an unhappy marriage.
00:42:52For fuck's sake, come on, Antoine.
00:42:55You're going to miss all the food.
00:42:59Oh, of course, that's still going on.
00:43:03I suppose I'll go on alone, as fucking usual.
00:43:12I'm sorry about your wife.
00:43:14I'm sorry your plans to stop the wedding came to naught.
00:43:19I've missed you.
00:43:21Really?
00:43:23Now you've come to mention it.
00:43:26I missed you too.
00:43:28But it's impossible.
00:43:29Why?
00:43:34I have a bad feeling, Antoine.
00:43:36Oh, God, so do I.
00:43:39But my son is married to the Princess of France.
00:43:42Catherine has signed over the regency to Edith,
00:43:45who, theoretically speaking,
00:43:48represents the interests of the House of Bourbon.
00:43:51Which means, I suppose, we won.
00:43:54Bravo, us.
00:43:58I don't know why it just doesn't feel that way.
00:44:05How about we forget our troubles with a spot of banqueting?
00:44:12I'm not in the mood.
00:44:14Stay here with me.
00:44:16God, I could think of nothing I'd love more.
00:44:19But it's my son's wedding.
00:44:24I'll make it worth your while.
00:44:40Lady Rahima.
00:44:42When do we leave?
00:44:45After the banquet.
00:44:46Why not now?
00:44:47Catherine asked me to stay for the celebration.
00:44:50She deserves that at least, right?
00:44:53She knows.
00:44:55She has no idea.
00:44:57You are wrong.
00:44:59Be patient.
00:45:03I've got something to tell you.
00:45:07Tell me later.
00:45:21I have one last favor to ask of you.
00:45:24You must sign the regency over to Edith.
00:45:30I've already relinquished my title.
00:45:43I doubted this day would ever come.
00:45:47Perhaps I have misjudged you after all.
00:45:50You really think she's the right one?
00:45:52Perhaps she was indeed sent to us by God.
00:45:57If you say so.
00:46:04And now...
00:46:08you have a visitor...
00:46:11to console you.
00:46:14To console you in your hour of need.
00:46:19Your Majesty.
00:46:27I wish you'd go. Don't you think?
00:46:31You can if you want to.
00:46:44I shall stay with you.
00:46:48Suit yourself.
00:47:13I'm sorry.
00:47:43Ten o'clock.
00:48:13Come on.
00:48:15Come on.
00:48:42Where's mother?
00:48:44I don't give a fuck.
00:48:46You know you did the right thing at the ceremony earlier?
00:48:49Did I?
00:48:51I told you.
00:48:53There's a limit to how much sin one man can swallow.
00:48:57I know.
00:48:58I'm not sure about that.
00:49:15LAUGHTER
00:49:33I suppose we should raise a glass to the happy newlyweds.
00:49:37Bollocks!
00:49:39I mean...
00:49:41I mean...
00:49:43Felicitations. Sorry.
00:49:47Though they do appear to be indisposed at the moment.
00:49:51As does my brother.
00:49:53I would also like to raise a toast to the new regent of France.
00:49:58My mother says you will be the one to unite the country.
00:50:02And she's usually right about these things.
00:50:06So...
00:50:09To France.
00:50:11To France.
00:50:15To France.
00:50:38CHANTING
00:51:09CLOCK TICKS
00:51:35LAUGHTER
00:51:38CHATTER
00:51:57It's been...
00:51:59It's been a long and a pleasure to sit with you.
00:52:03It really has.
00:52:06Apparently you are a woman of your word.
00:52:11When will I be presented with the regency?
00:52:17Yes.
00:52:20I believe it is time for you to get what you came for.
00:52:24Right.
00:52:54Oh!
00:52:59The House of Keys says hello.
00:53:16LAUGHTER
00:53:25Oh, fuck! Fuck!
00:53:39The House of Keys says hello!
00:53:43Fuck! Fuck!
00:53:47The House of Keys says hello.
00:53:54LAUGHTER
00:54:04Alessandro!
00:54:06A gift from your queen.
00:54:08LAUGHTER
00:54:23Ladies and gentlemen, the House of Keys says hello.
00:54:27LAUGHTER
00:54:38LAUGHTER
00:54:54Hello, brother.
00:55:08LAUGHTER
00:55:38HEARTBEATS
00:56:08HEARTBEATS
00:56:39HE SNIFFS
00:56:42Sorry to disturb the happy couple, but I'm here to liberate the princess!
00:56:46You will do no such thing!
00:56:52If the Queen Mother wants him dead...
00:56:58..let her do her killing herself.
00:57:02Or...
00:57:07..is my proud brother...
00:57:11..now a little servant boy?
00:57:17Look at what she's done to you.
00:57:25As you wish.
00:57:28As you wish.
00:57:30HE BREATHES HEAVILY
00:57:56You can't fucking die.
00:58:00Oh...
00:58:07What's the fucking meaning in that?
00:58:11HE SIGHS
00:58:28I will not allow you to kill my husband.
00:58:31You will force me to marry him.
00:58:33And if it's my fate to have nothing else, I intend to be true to him.
00:58:37Is your heart so fickle?
00:58:40I thought it was the Duke you loved.
00:58:42I do not love my husband.
00:58:44In fact, I feel nothing at all for him.
00:58:46And yet you plead for his life.
00:58:48For one reason.
00:58:50To defy you.
00:58:52As I intend to for the rest of your days.
00:58:55One day you will understand why I have done the things I have.
00:59:02For the good of your children.
00:59:05Hercule is dead.
00:59:07Charles is dying.
00:59:09Elizabeth has been married off to a cripple.
00:59:13Anjou has become your deranged assassin.
00:59:16And you have condemned me to a lifetime of unhappiness.
00:59:25Happiness is a child's ambition.
00:59:29And my husband is a Prince of France.
00:59:32Kill him and you will be guilty of regicide.
00:59:35The one crime against which your fellow monarchs will unite.
00:59:40You can keep your precious husband.
00:59:45But do not forget that I offered you a way out of this.
00:59:49Because he is far cleverer than you think.
00:59:53Welcome to the family.
00:59:55Welcome to the family.
01:00:05Montmorency is dead.
01:00:07The Bourbons, all the rest.
01:00:11Apparently.
01:00:13You.
01:00:16You have done this.
01:00:19Yes.
01:00:21In your name.
01:00:23Because it is the only way we survive.
01:00:27I had no idea such evil resided in your heart.
01:00:30Be that as it may.
01:00:33In a few hours time,
01:00:35all of Edith's followers will find out what we have done.
01:00:40And they will come for us.
01:00:49You are the King.
01:00:52You want to rule?
01:00:56You must decide.
01:01:00Are you capable of that?
01:01:04What will it be, Your Majesty?
01:01:07Do we live?
01:01:10Or do we die?
01:01:21Kill them all in their beds.
01:02:21Come on.
01:02:51Come on.
01:03:07I have come to tell you that a terrible tragedy has occurred.
01:03:12My brother has betrayed us with the Queen of England.
01:03:16Treason is punishable by death and of course I couldn't play favourites.
01:03:22Do you think because you locked me in here I do not know what you have done?
01:03:26I who know you best of all.
01:03:30You acted out of spite because Alessandro didn't love you.
01:03:35Because he loved me.
01:03:39How can you be jealous of your own brother?
01:03:44Is that the right question?
01:03:46I'm shocked by your naivety.
01:03:49I thought you were just like me.
01:03:53But I was wrong.
01:03:56And you betrayed me.
01:03:59Something as petty as love?
01:04:06After all your talk of peace,
01:04:09now the rivers of France run red.
01:04:12Indeed.
01:04:13And that's for you to decide.
01:04:16Who lives and who dies.
01:04:19Because someone has to.
01:04:23Then you truly are the Serpent Queen.
01:04:27And God will never forgive you.
01:04:30Do you really think he gives a shit?
01:04:38So tell me,
01:04:41so tell me, Rahima.
01:04:45How did you think that this was going to work out for you?
01:04:50I'm pregnant.
01:04:53A Medici grows inside me.
01:04:56Your own blood.
01:04:58And when it grows,
01:05:00I swear it will know what you have done to make it an orphan.
01:05:04So, if you're going to kill me,
01:05:07do it now.
01:05:09If you have the stomach to murder an unborn child of your own blood.
01:05:16Get her something to eat.
01:05:30I come before you with proof that the treasonous House of Ghis
01:05:33I come before you with proof that the treasonous House of Ghis
01:05:37in collusion with the Catholic League
01:05:39plotted to overthrow our King
01:05:41and are responsible for the bloodshed that occurred in this very room.
01:05:45Rest assured,
01:05:47those responsible have been punished.
01:05:50Where's your God now?
01:05:51There is no God.
01:05:55But that's a good thing.
01:05:58There will be no one to judge me
01:06:00when I take revenge on Catherine for what she has done.
01:06:06We are now left to mourn
01:06:08the loyal Princess of the Blood.
01:06:15Fuck!
01:06:18Fuck!
01:06:30And the many innocent victims so cruelly cut down.
01:06:50The royal family is united.
01:07:01And the state of the kingdom is strong.
01:07:16Long live the King.
01:07:30Long live the King.
01:07:33I suppose.
01:07:43Then again,
01:07:45there's always a spare.
01:08:00I.
01:08:03Have thought I did love you when I did.
01:08:08Can't believe you played me out like that.
01:08:15No, you're a word.
01:08:17Yes.
01:08:19Well, I.
01:08:22You can't.
01:08:25You can't keep lying to yourself like that.
01:08:30Can't believe you played yourself like this.
01:08:38Mr. Disney,
01:08:40nine and fourteen.
01:08:43Nobody's standing in between me and my man.
01:08:47Cause it's me and Mr. Jones.
01:08:53Me and Mr. Jones.
01:09:00THE LORD OF THE RINGS
