00:19:56it should be what do you mean seaside gardens are supposed to be so romantic and you're supposed
00:20:02to work in harmony with the nature that's around them in what way well there should be dune grass
00:20:08and lavender and sage and this garden doesn't have any of that kind of feels constricted you
00:20:14know it feels like there should be some more space I would start and I would take up that
00:20:18white fencing right there here I can actually show you oh yes you'll see these drawings these
00:20:25sketches are a little more natural and and we could use the actual grade of the land as it goes
00:20:30down to the sea too it's so wonderful oh thank you I obviously did them before I saw your actual
00:20:37garden but you can do this well then don't let me stop you I have a trip to Europe next week but

00:23:44much like to see more of your island before I depart Susanna could give you a bike tour you

00:23:54Simon's back when she was competing to be the peach princess I'm sorry the peach princess
00:24:00in high school Susie won the local peach princess beauty contest and she became kind of an ambassador
00:24:07for st. Simon's for a whole year she was adorable I bet she was okay can we get back to talking
00:24:14about the Navy now please yes absolutely as soon as I help clear the table would that be all right
00:24:23so should I be calling you the peach princess is that your official title I was 16 you have
00:24:29to understand it was family tradition I had to enter the contest actually I do understand
00:24:33family tradition is very important where I come from as well then you get it I do and in all
00:24:40sincerity a bike tour sounds wonderful if you can spare the time I think I can swing it wonderful
00:24:45I'll see you at work yeah
00:24:59it's out
00:25:05you are so not gonna believe this wait what who Nate really is
00:25:30oh thank you Steven
00:25:40oh Nathaniel
00:26:00Susanna you're a prince oh you saw yeah I saw I can explain is your explanation I'm a prince
00:26:13and it slipped my mind would you believe that yeah actually I would you know cuz it happens
00:26:17all the time it does no right stupid me um you allow me to explain
00:26:29I'm sorry for not telling you who I really was anonymity is so rare for me and so I think I
00:26:36held on to it a bit too long in many ways being here where no one recognizes me has been such a
00:26:42blessing especially now why now this will be my last real holiday my father passed away a few
00:26:55months ago most unexpectedly so sorry about your father thank you he was a great man an
00:27:03unbelievable King it'll be hard to follow in his footsteps I think that you can do it what makes
00:27:11you so certain well I don't know much about what it takes to be a king but I do know a lot about
00:27:16people and I've seen how hard-working and generous and kind you are so I think the people of Cambria
00:27:24would be very lucky to have you that might be the best compliment I've ever been given if I might
00:27:34return the favor I know your life hasn't been exactly as you thought it's an understatement
00:27:41but it's sort of smart and resourceful person that'll make the most of any circumstance you
00:27:47find yourself in thank you so Prince huh what's it like to just be watched all the time grow
00:28:00accustomed to it no for me the hottest part is having decisions made for me sometimes even before
00:28:06I was born like what where I'll go to university Naval Academy my area of study political science
00:28:14civil engineering law whom I'll marry you've arranged marriages but when I do marry I must
00:28:25marry a woman I'm camera must it's tradition anyone mind names are always being floated
00:28:38one more than others
00:29:00what are you up to now
00:29:07he's a prince daddy like the real thing he's been hauling mulch for us okay wait Nate is
00:29:19coming I told him we were to play it cool okay hi honey I I mean it's all right hon is fine
00:29:27I wanted to apologize to you for not being forthright about my identity you've all been
00:29:35so giving and I really appreciate being treated just like a normal no need to apologize I'm not
00:29:41too kind now I wish that I could continue working here because it's been truly fun
00:29:49but now that my secret is out that is quite impossible well maybe you've already done so
00:29:59much and we can get someone else to cover all my dad's recovering I know this is a little late
00:30:06at this point but given I got this made up for you
00:30:22thank you all of you
00:30:29I'm gonna miss this place we're gonna miss you
00:30:34oh we never got that bike tour oh are you leaving town right away day after tomorrow
00:30:45so what are you doing right now
00:30:53let's do it
00:30:59here we are
00:31:19isn't that the tree where we first met yeah exactly oh well come on let's stop here
00:31:29so beautiful now the day we met that was a great day but in all my life I've never had a day like
00:31:54today I feel free is that a good thing the best thank you could you be something else other than
00:32:10a prince I'll be king soon I know that I just mean when I first met you you seemed so eager to help
00:32:19you even volunteered at the store why a real reason the chance to lead a normal life just
00:32:30for a few days I mean the chance to make my own decisions royalty has evolved into mostly
00:32:38ceremonial position ceremonies of theater for some time now I felt as if I was a prop in someone
00:32:47else's life that change when you become king I certainly hope so I'm sure it will so what's the
00:32:59first thing you're going to do is King open the Florentine gardens to the public they're so
00:33:04beautiful they should be shared and especially once sir Edwards finished renovating the South
00:33:08Oval sir Edward Tilbury he's yeah he's amazing I studied his work in college I thought he'd
00:33:15retired he had but my mother is very good at getting her way I wish you could see the gardens
00:33:25you'd love them maybe someday I certainly hope so
00:33:37I should probably get going yeah right
00:33:45you can't figure this out it's alright I got it you coming eventually
00:34:16Jenny what a surprise someone's been busy and making a profit so I've seen so everyone has
00:34:27seen here's the thing Morris remember how I pulled in a few favors with the Queen to get
00:34:33you to the royal press pool yeah then you also know how very much you owe me now Morris are
00:34:41there any other surprises you'd like to tell me about according to your mother Lady Jenny was
00:34:48just able to stop Morris Alderman from publishing this I'm sorry night but the Queen was quite
00:34:58clear the flight leaves in three hours and your bags are already packed we must leave now
00:35:11hey it's Susannah please leave a message and I'll get back to you ASAP
00:35:32hey Susannah it's Nate bit of bad news I have to return home immediately I'm so sorry I couldn't
00:35:41say goodbye in person
00:35:56Evie Jones is at the register she wants to talk to you
00:35:59hi Evie what's up are the rumors true yes we had a prince working for us no he is no longer
00:36:12here no not about him that you're redoing mrs. Waller's gardens yeah yeah yeah that's true
00:36:20actually congratulations thank you are you available to do some work on my gardens when
00:36:27you're done I mean I'd love to wonderful thank you of course thank you
00:36:57There will be a few hours between the coronation and the coronation ball is there anything in
00:37:09particular you'd like to include in the itinerary after the morning's walk my son dreaming about
00:37:14America one American in particular thank you John hello mother hello darling good flight
00:37:26good enough what's this this is your grandmother's engagement ring it's time you started to think
00:37:35about your life after the coronation this is quite a way off not as far as you might think and
00:37:41maybe Ginny has proven herself quite useful of late not that again mother you must choose someone
00:37:47it cannot be the American remind me again why you know why tradition and to be fair the girl
00:37:57has absolutely no preparation for a role such as this if you do and is this where you remind me
00:38:04that Ginny does no need most of all Nathaniel you must always remember that you are to be the king
00:38:13of Cambria there are enough doubts about the role of the monarchy in the modern era as is we would
00:38:20be beyond foolish to invite more trouble and we are not foolish now I have a very boring meeting
00:38:29with Prime Minister but you'll be pleased to know I have invited Lady Ginny for tea
00:38:43ah hello darling Ginny what a surprise I wasn't certain you make it back in time for your big day
00:39:04I've only got a couple of weeks a lot can happen in a few weeks and apparently did
00:39:09Ginny are always best when you're direct so please let me have it I merely wanted to see
00:39:18how you were doing after your trip to America rumors are swirling that our future king is
00:39:23perhaps distracted anything in particular or anyone well I do have this rather large event
00:39:34the coronation ball you do remember how to dance don't you I do but there's also the
00:39:40actual coronation oh that he'll get through that with ease but should you need help you know
00:39:49perfectly well there's no one else who understands you quite like I do and who also knows how to
00:39:54navigate the nuances of royal politics I'm quite unique that you are deep please
00:40:09oh looks real nice honey thank you I just wanted to all be done this is all it gets
00:40:17oh it's gonna be perfect everything okay something on your mind dr. Miller gave your
00:40:25father the go-ahead to return to the store full-time that's great not if he goes back
00:40:30to working the same crazy amount I mean having Nate help us like it did just made it more obvious
00:40:36we need to hire a couple more people especially now that your landscaping is taking off mom it's
00:40:43just mrs. Waller and Evie Jones that's it it's a start folks like that your mrs. Waller's choice
00:40:49I'm just gonna grow from there I hope so I know so you're made for bigger things Susie I've always
00:40:59felt that thank you some bills from the Prime Minister for you to sign mom I'll email your
00:41:09secretary these security updates Nathaniel hasn't been the same since he returned I recognize that
00:41:15look and so do the gossip pages Nathaniel is to be crowned king of Camry within 10 days as such
00:41:24he's required to marry a woman of Cambrian descent I want him to be happy not hurt not harboring some
00:41:31delusion of a young girl who could never fit in perhaps he should see that what do you mean at
00:41:38the moment miss Truett is an ideal the personification of all that he cannot have
00:41:43that's due in part to the romanticized circumstance in which they were together
00:41:47and your suggestion is change the circumstance bring her to Cambria allow him to see you in
00:41:56a new role shatter the illusion that could work I think we might have to take it one step further
00:42:05show him without question that she could never be Queen of Cambria I think I have an idea how
00:42:11to do it and you're going to help me John of course mom anything you need
00:42:24an apprentice to sir Edward Tilbury and who is that he's the most famous landscape architect
00:42:32in the entire world and he wants you to apprentice world I feel like Nate probably pulled some
00:42:38strings because I know he's working in the Florentine Gardens in Cambria what says here
00:42:42that it's only until Nate's coronation that's next week I bet you get an invitation to go

00:48:37father always used to say that he was King but she ruled you know what I actually kind of admire

00:49:04you're just next door told you Nate would take care of us bit of an improvement hmm little bit
00:49:14Nate we can still call you Nate right of course well in private but in public we should stick to
00:49:22the rules duty calls can you join me for lunch tomorrow yeah I'd love to I just I don't really
00:49:31know if we get a lunch break or when I certainly hope you do let's lunch together although to avoid
00:49:39any more impromptu photo ops shall we say the pagoda noon okay perfect yeah I'd love to great
00:50:02good morning Nathaniel good morning mother
00:50:06don't you seem chipper this morning I am I ran into a couple of friends yesterday
00:50:15oh Susanna and Avery Truett ah seems you've already met Susanna yes when I was examining
00:50:28the progress in the garden hmm what are you up to I don't know what you mean you know exactly what
00:50:34I mean isn't she a friend of yours isn't this an opportunity for her think of the story she'll
00:50:41be able to tell her clients when she gets back to America it'll be a feather in her cap it sounds
00:50:46so benevolent thank you very much if it was anything but benevolent would I have allowed
00:50:52her sister to come along hmm I'm not sure but you did place them both in the employee quarters
00:50:59Susanna is an employee I'm sure that's the reason regardless I've now moved them both to the guest
00:51:07wing without consulting me I don't need to consult you mother and be prepared I'm inviting them both
00:51:15to the coronation the family coronation yes you can't why not she's American they both are so is
00:51:24mrs. Waller I have invited a few very select friends and family to your coronation exactly
00:51:31my coronation Nathaniel I worry that you'll get swept up and do something foolish like leave I
00:51:41love my country mother this is my home I'm not going anywhere promise me you will not
00:51:48abdicate I would never good because your cousin Colin is next in line and we both know you'd
00:51:56have the throne room turned into a disco by week's end
00:52:05sorry
00:52:16is the famous lady Jenny know that you're having lunch with me no why should she I read somewhere
00:52:22that you guys were practically engaged hmm read where it was online gossip website ah yes they
00:52:29loved speculate about us so is it true Jenny and I have been friends since we were children and you
00:52:37dated briefly in university why'd you guys break up because neither of us was ready to settle down
00:52:46someday you might be ready to settle down I certainly hope so no no I mean lady Jenny
00:52:55checks all the boxes hmm now I know you've been reading those gossip sites what she's a Cambrian
00:53:02aristocrat is not essentially a prerequisite more of a tradition isn't the same thing to my mother
00:53:08yes oh I am gonna be late for work um I'll help you clean up no don't bother I've got this I've
00:53:17kept you too long anyway don't you be late for sir Edward I'll see you later bye it isn't working
00:53:24what isn't bringing the American here first I hear that Nathaniel has moved the two it's into
00:53:31the guest suites and now I hear they're sneaking off together to have lunches in the garden lunches
00:53:36sounds harmless it isn't harmless it's dangerous your plan has failed perhaps it's because Nathaniel
00:53:44has already seen Susanna in a garden environment and it's one in which she excels even sir Edward
00:53:50said he was impressed with how hard she works he said that so Edward is rarely impressed which
00:53:56doesn't help the problem ah wonderful you're both here I just wanted to let you know that I've invited
00:54:01both Susanna and a route of the coronation ball John please make note of that so there are no
00:54:06curious security issues thanks it's getting exciting
00:54:23Nate I can't go to a ball why not because I'd feel out of place I've never been to a royal ball
00:54:30before it's probably gonna be deadly dull you're not selling it unless you were there Nate do you
00:54:40know how to dance does line dancing count I don't know what that is but I'm suddenly desperate to
00:54:46see it no fine
00:54:58this is amazing
00:55:04I'm not showing you my line dancing in here or what it's easy no yes we can't we are here what
00:55:13could be better it's easy you'll pick it right up so follow these steps now right foot back left

00:56:02same as before I'll lead
00:57:02hey sorry I'm late oh don't be silly I only just got here myself did you start without me ah what
00:57:11no I might have had just one sandwich what's that my oath what's that for my coronation oath
00:57:22see the Archbishop reads this here and here and I respond like wedding vows a bit yes have you
00:57:32practiced only just but I'm supposed to let's practice all right
00:57:38yes are you Nathaniel Kenneth Richard Leopold Bartholomew seriously yes my father's was longer
00:57:52how are you willing and able to take the oath to be the king of Cambria I am willing and able
00:57:58to take this oath and swear by all that I have that I will be a good and faithful servant and
00:58:04you promise to uphold and defend the laws charters and Constitution of the kingdom of
00:58:08Cambria I do so promise and you promise to protect the freedom and rights of all Cambrian citizens I
00:58:14do with all my heart from this day forward and all the days of my life so help me God I now
00:58:22pronounce you king and country nicely done Nathaniel I think you and Cambria will make a
00:58:28lovely couple Ginny what brings you here the Queen sent me now don't be rude introduce me to your
00:58:35friend of course Ginny this is Susanna Truitt Susanna this is Lady Genevieve Byron do I pretty
00:58:44please don't I'm too young to feel like my parents yeah why did my mother send you apparently Her
00:58:49Majesty was trying to get ahold of you about some coronation logistics something or another and to
00:58:55talk to the archbishop but you don't seem to be answering your phone I'll clean up I'll help okay
00:59:06thank you both your oath right can't forget that it's lovely to meet you at last Susanna at last
00:59:20well you've certainly been the talk of the town since the photos surfaced I don't think you know
00:59:29you'd be getting yourself into I'm sorry what's Nathaniel oh we're just friends yes but as one
00:59:38who has genuinely been his friend for many years I think it should be pointed out that standing
00:59:43beside royalty is much more than watching polo matches and wearing the proper hat their expectations
00:59:49are you telling me this because I care deeply about the Cambrian monarchy and if it is to
00:59:56survive the 21st century then Nathaniel needs someone beside him who understands how to control
01:00:01what people see and what they do not you it's nothing personal Susanna this is merely the way
01:00:11things are tradition that's right tradition I'll take this back to the house bring the glasses
01:00:19will you look who I found mrs. Waller I came for the coronation and much to my delight found I
01:00:40wasn't the only st. Simons resident here I've been catching her up on everything you've been
01:00:45doing and not doing your sister tells me you haven't gotten your gowns for the ball yet well
01:00:51I will we're not sure if we're going we're going you've been invited haven't you yeah by the prince
01:00:59himself well then as ladies of st. Simons Georgia it's our duty to make sure we properly represent
01:01:06we are going shopping my treat
01:01:20it's just so beautiful here the first time I came to Cambria is a little girl I thought this is the
01:01:26place that all the fairy tales are talking about exactly what it feels like and you have the best
01:01:31view of anyone working in the gardens you have seen the Florentine Gardens I've been working so
01:01:37much I haven't really had a chance you have to change that what are you doing here this is
01:01:59somebody's garden so I was just this is a private garden I'm sorry I didn't know that
01:02:03it's really beautiful yes it is it's Italian isn't it that's right the design is exquisite
01:02:15did sir Edward do it no my late husband Leo designed this garden for me for you yes it was
01:02:28a wedding present he redesigned the castle gardens to match the garden where he proposed to me in
01:02:35Florence a proposal that I was free to accept because I was from a Cambrian family a tradition
01:02:44in Cambria an important one one that should be respected
01:02:55well thank you for letting me share in your garden it's beautiful
01:03:14I only wish your father were here to see this he would be so proud thank you
01:03:39good luck
01:03:45you
01:04:07are you Nathaniel Kenneth Richard Leopold Bartholomew willing and able to take the oath
01:04:14to be the king of Cambria. I am willing and able and swear by all that I have
01:04:19that I will be a good and faithful servant. And do you promise to protect
01:04:24the freedoms and rights of all Cambrian citizens and residents? I do with all my
01:04:31heart from this day forward and in all the days of my life. So help me God.
01:04:44God save the king. God save the king.
01:05:05Could be your turn next, Jimmy. I'm not sure what you mean, your majesty.
01:05:09The king needs a queen. Can't think of anyone more suited to the position than you.
01:05:15Why are you packing? I'm not going. What? But we have dresses. I'll return mine to
01:05:45mrs. Waller. What is going on? I just, what am I thinking? This whole thing with
01:05:54Nate, it's never gonna work. I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. You've
01:06:01never once looked at anyone the way you look at Nate. Not even close. That makes
01:06:09it worse. Because? Because he's not Nate. He's not the guy who helped me lug soil
01:06:14and help me in mrs. Waller's garden and who I rode bikes with around St. Simon's.
01:06:17He's Nathaniel, king of Cambria now. And you're my big sister who worked all
01:06:23through high school and still got straight A's. Then worked two jobs in
01:06:27college and got on I don't even know how many honor rolls every single year. Okay,
01:06:33you're strong and smart and caring and if King Nathaniel suddenly forgets all
01:06:38of that just because he recited some vows or whatever, then he's not the Nate
01:06:43that we know. How many times in your life do you think we'll get an invitation to
01:06:50a royal ball? Come on Susie, we have to go.
01:07:14If you're looking for Lady Ginny, she's right over there.
01:07:27Your invitations to the garden will be well received. Do you think your father
01:07:32would have approved? He would love them. In fact, they're so beautiful I want to
01:07:41share them with the public. Really? Really. We've kept them to ourselves for
01:07:47too long. It's time we open them up. It's time we open up. Oh I see, man of the
01:07:55people. Yes, change will do us good. You're the king.
01:08:11I don't know what this is.
01:08:26You know, I believe this is the first time we've danced together since we dated.
01:08:31A long time ago. Some things remain the same. Everyone is
01:08:37staring. Everyone always does. You're not. Your eyes are everywhere else but on me.
01:08:44I'm sure she'll show up soon. Who? You know who.
01:09:07Susanna. I heard some music. Thought I would check it out, see what's going on.
01:09:32Just a little party I'm throwing. Any special occasion? Not one I can think of
01:09:38at this very moment. Will you dance with me?
01:09:44Look into my eyes. Remember our practice. Just pretend it's you and I in here, all right?
01:10:14Good evening, Mrs. Willoughby.
01:10:44John, I've been meaning to thank you for your recommendations on dress shops in town.
01:10:49They were quite fruitful, as you can see.
01:10:54Just doing my job. Which is? Protect Nathaniel.
01:11:14You look beautiful. Mrs. Waller helped me pick out this dress.
01:11:29It's not the dress. It's you. But I must admit, I was a bit nervous there that you weren't coming.
01:11:37Well, I almost didn't. Why? Because you're a king, Nate. Nathaniel.
01:11:44Nate. To you, I will always be Nate. To the rest of the world, you're king
01:11:49Nathaniel Kenneth Richard. Leopold Bartholomew. It's exhausting. It's always been exhausting.
01:11:57But with you by my side, I finally feel like I can tackle this new chapter of my life and
01:12:01remain sane. Thrive, even. You don't need me to thrive.
01:12:07You were born to be king. You're going to be amazing at this.
01:12:12Oh, wow. What?
01:12:15You just hit me. You just truly hit me. I'm a king.
01:12:23We should have a toast to celebrate like you did for me when I was hired for Mrs. Waller's gardens.
01:12:28Excellent idea. Although I'm not sure we have any sweet tea here in Cambria.
01:12:33Some champagne then? It's a sacrifice.
01:12:39You really are beautiful. I'll be right back.
01:12:44Two glasses of champagne. It's one of those for me.
01:12:59Um. No, I understand. I didn't until I saw
01:13:03the two of you together dancing and laughing and you looking at her how I always hoped you'd look
01:13:07at me. But you never did and you never will. Ginny, would you be cross with me if I said
01:13:18I think you two might get along? Yes, right now I will.
01:13:22But I think you're right. Someday. Someday.
01:13:40Oh, Susanna. There you are. I was looking for you.
01:13:45I have a little confession. I was the one who arranged your apprenticeship.
01:13:52Why? I wanted to show my son how wrong you are,
01:13:55both for him and for Cambria. Well, respectfully, Your Majesty,
01:13:59I never claimed to be right for him. Love is wonderful, but it fades and in its
01:14:04place remains responsibility and duty, neither of which is easy. And that is why our family has
01:14:11always married people from Cambria. They know what to expect, both the good and the bad.
01:14:17Like Lady Ginny. Nathaniel may not be in love with her,
01:14:22but he respects her and likes her and knows that she is ready to take over the position
01:14:28and the commitments. And I'm not?
01:14:31How could you be? You're not from here. I like you, Susanna.
01:14:38But I simply must put my country and my son's future first, no matter what.
01:14:47Good night, Susanna.
01:15:16I look forward to seeing you next week. You too. Thank you so much. Have a good day.
01:15:38Evie Jones seems happy. I know. I'm going to start on her plays next week.
01:15:42Oh, honey, I'm so proud. And I have two other leads that came in.
01:15:46That's wonderful. I guess word spread really fast about me working on Mrs. Waller's house.
01:15:52Maybe you should tell Nate. Have you spoken to him?
01:15:57No, and I don't I don't expect to, but it's OK. I think even though things may not have
01:16:03worked out the way they'd hoped, I believe things are going to work out the way that
01:16:06they're supposed to. His Majesty's lunch with the prime minister went very well.
01:16:22I feel confident I'll have an excellent working relationship.
01:16:25Excellent. Thank you, John. If there are no further questions.
01:16:30It's been a week since the coronation. Do you think he's begun to get over her?
01:16:36No, nor do I. In fact, if anything, I think it's rather worse than before she arrived.
01:16:44John. One of the many qualities that I've always admired about you is your uncanny ability to
01:16:52accurately assess a person or a situation and to give sound sage advice. Thank you, Mom.
01:17:00So I found it rather confusing that when it came to making suggestions as to what to do about
01:17:07Nathaniel's feelings for Susanna, you came up with a plan that was so spectacularly wrong.
01:17:13Did I? Didn't you?
01:17:17Mom, my job has been and always will be to protect this family. Protection comes in many forms.
01:17:24I feel very confident that my suggestion to bring Mr. Truitt to Cambria was entirely about
01:17:30doing what is best for this family and the king. Mom?
01:17:46What are you doing? Gardening.
01:17:50I remember when father and I used to come here when I was a boy.
01:17:54Get our hands dirty. It's important, you know.
01:18:00Stay connected to the earth. Not feel above anyone or anything.
01:18:06I remember when the two of you used to come back from the garden,
01:18:10covered in dirt and happy as could be. I think father would have liked her.
01:18:17They could have talked about the garden together. Probably.
01:18:24I just don't understand why she left. Why didn't she say goodbye?
01:18:29Perhaps she thought she was doing the right thing for you.
01:18:32The right thing? She seems like a sensible girl.
01:18:36I'm sure her heart is in the right place. And what place is that?
01:18:42A realistic place. She understands that marriage to you is impossible.
01:18:47Because of tradition? Yes.
01:18:49So because no member of the royal family has ever married someone of
01:18:53I'm not free to do so now. Nathaniel, listen.
01:18:55No, mother. When I took the oath to be king, I swore that I would protect the rights and
01:18:58freedoms of all Cambrian citizens. Of course.
01:19:01I am a Cambrian citizen. I have rights and I have freedoms.
01:19:06You are an example. And what sort of example would I be?
01:19:09Were I to abandon the woman that I love?
01:19:17I've never heard you say those words before.
01:19:19That you love someone. Because I've never said them before.
01:19:26Words have impact and meaning, and I do not use them lightly.
01:19:33Just like your father. Yes.
01:19:37He said to me he only ever told one woman ever that he loved her.
01:19:42And that when my time came, I better mean it.
01:19:46I do, mother.
01:19:49I do.
01:20:04Hey. Hey.
01:20:05What are you doing for the rest of the night? I'm just going to go home and work on this
01:20:08design for Evie Jones's garden. Can you give me a ride home?
01:20:12What happened to your car? I got another flat.
01:20:15Avery! I know. I know.
01:20:17Come on. Let's get out of here. I'll drive.
01:20:20Okay. Why are we stopping?
01:20:27What's this? Go on.
01:20:48Hello. Nate.
01:21:05What's all this? Susanna, I don't know if you have any
01:21:10interest in becoming part of the royal family. It'll be a bit of a challenge, I assure you.
01:21:17But if you do, and if you love me even a fraction as much as I love you,
01:21:23then I know we can rewrite tradition. Susanna?
01:21:32I offer to you my future, my heart, and my kingdom.
01:21:40Will you marry me and be my queen? Susanna, give the boy an answer.
01:21:48Are you guys crashing my engagement? Focus, Susanna.
01:21:52I thought you wanted... More than anything,
01:21:56I want what any mother wants, for her child to be happy. And you make him happy.
01:22:09Yes. Nathaniel, Kenneth, Richard,
01:22:12Leopold, Bartholomew, I will absolutely be your queen.
