0:00:02 > 0:00:03In a land of myth and a time of magic,
0:00:03 > 0:00:08the destiny of a great kingdom rests on the shoulders of a young boy.
0:00:08 > 0:00:10His name...Merlin.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24- Boo!- Oh!
0:00:24 > 0:00:27- Did I surprise you? - You certainly did!
0:00:27 > 0:00:29I've got another surprise for you, too.
0:00:36 > 0:00:40- It's...lovely. - Well, in case you ever need a spare.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42You know...for this...
0:00:44 > 0:00:46It's beautiful!
0:00:46 > 0:00:49You're a beautiful girl, Gwen. You deserve beautiful things.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53But how...I mean...it must have been expensive?
0:00:53 > 0:00:56Oh, very. But we're on the up now.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Things are going to be different.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02- What's going on? - It'll be all right. Trust me.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06I won't be back for supper.
0:01:21 > 0:01:22Hello?
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Is it prepared?
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Yes. Look.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Very good.
0:01:51 > 0:01:52What is that?
0:01:52 > 0:01:55I'm not paying you to ask questions.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57The lead, please.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Ferian aet gylden.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23You didn't mention magic. I don't want trouble.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25Ic bugan peos...
0:02:29 > 0:02:34Ferian aet gylden.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Gold?
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Pure, priceless gold.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Yours, blacksmith. If you keep your mouth shut.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Seize them!
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Quickly, after him!
0:02:57 > 0:03:01- Stop!- He must be caught.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Stop that man.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09- Sire, please...- You're under arrest.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Can't sleep?
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Something woke me.
0:03:49 > 0:03:50What?
0:03:50 > 0:03:52I don't know.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54A feeling.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57What kind of feeling?
0:03:58 > 0:04:01Powerful magic, here, in Camelot.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Gwen! What's wrong?
0:04:04 > 0:04:06- My father's been arrested. - What for?
0:04:06 > 0:04:08They say he was making weapons for a sorcerer!
0:04:08 > 0:04:10They're charging him with treason!
0:04:10 > 0:04:12- Treason!?- Yes, treason.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16The blacksmith was consorting with a known enemy.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18- Enemy? What enemy?- Tauren.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21The leader of a band of renegade sorcerers
0:04:21 > 0:04:23sworn to bring down the King.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26And where is this Tauren now?
0:04:26 > 0:04:28- He escaped. - Well, then how can you be sure...
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Because Arthur saw him with his own eyes.
0:04:31 > 0:04:32If the man is who you say
0:04:32 > 0:04:36you can't sentence Tom to death for being seen with him!?
0:04:36 > 0:04:39We have reason to believe he was forging weapons for Tauren.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41He would never do such a thing.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Every man has a price.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48Found this on the blacksmith.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51So he was paid!? He's a blacksmith.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53- He could've been paid for shoeing Tauren's horse!- In gold?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56This is madness. You condemn a man with no proof!
0:04:56 > 0:04:58I have enough proof.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Arthur! Have you nothing to say?
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Father, the blacksmith committed a crime,
0:05:09 > 0:05:12but we don't know for certain he meant treason?
0:05:14 > 0:05:16No. You are right.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20Nothing's certain. Save one thing.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23The law stands or this Kingdom falls.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25But the law must give him a fair trial!
0:05:25 > 0:05:28He'll get a fair trial, and he'll be found guilty,
0:05:28 > 0:05:29because that is what he is.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32I will never forgive you.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Never.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Maybe we should investigate further.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Tauren slept somewhere, he fed somewhere.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Find anyone who helped him in any way.
0:05:47 > 0:05:48They must be punished.
0:05:48 > 0:05:53The people must see the laws of Camelot are not to be trifled with.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Yes, Father.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01I didn't know Tauren was a sorcerer.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03I meant no harm, I swear.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Why didn't you tell me what was going on?
0:06:06 > 0:06:10I knew you wouldn't like it, Gwen. You're cautious.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- I didn't want to let an opportunity pass.- Opportunity?
0:06:13 > 0:06:15You call this an opportunity?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17I know.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20I've been a fool.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23I just wanted to make a better life for us.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26For you.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28I wanted to make you happy.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30But I am happy!
0:06:30 > 0:06:33I don't need anything else. I have everything I want.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36And I've thrown it all away!
0:06:36 > 0:06:38It's all right,
0:06:38 > 0:06:41we will get you out of here, I promise.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50- What did he say? - Tauren came to him at the forge,
0:06:50 > 0:06:53offered to pay him a fortune not to make weapons,
0:06:53 > 0:06:54for an experiment or something.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57- What kind of experiment? - Tauren didn't say.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00But he used some kind of stone...
0:07:00 > 0:07:02some kind of magic...
0:07:02 > 0:07:05She's sleeping now.
0:07:05 > 0:07:06I don't understand it.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08What would a sorcerer want with Tom?
0:07:08 > 0:07:11His forge, Merlin. It's the finest in the Kingdom.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15You think Tom was lying? You think he really was making weapons?
0:07:15 > 0:07:17- No, I don't.- Then what?
0:07:17 > 0:07:21- When Tom was arrested, they found gold on him.- So?
0:07:21 > 0:07:22From what Gwen was saying,
0:07:22 > 0:07:28Tauren's experiment bears all the hallmarks of alchemy.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30But alchemy's impossible, isn't it?
0:07:30 > 0:07:34To change the very nature of one thing to another has defeated all who have tried.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37But if you used magic...
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Do you think that's what woke me?
0:07:42 > 0:07:44It is possible, I suppose.
0:07:51 > 0:07:52Gwen?
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Gwen?
0:08:04 > 0:08:05Gwen?
0:08:53 > 0:08:56- Merlin.- Morgana?
0:08:56 > 0:08:59How is she?
0:08:59 > 0:09:00She's doing OK.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05We should let her rest.
0:09:05 > 0:09:06Yeah.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Morgana, have you spoken to Uther?
0:09:13 > 0:09:15He must realise this is a mistake.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18Whatever Tom was doing, it wasn't plotting against the King.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20I know that. Of course I do.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23But Uther...
0:09:23 > 0:09:26Uther only sees enemies.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29But Tom is the most gentle soul I've ever met.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31But he was seen with Tauren.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33That makes him an enemy.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39Then...there's little hope...?
0:09:39 > 0:09:42There is no hope, Merlin.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44None at all.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Arthur?
0:10:17 > 0:10:20I bring you no relief, Tom. I'm sorry.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23I came only to see you were comfortable.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26- How's Gwen?- She's a brave girl.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28She wishes only to see you free.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32I know what Uther thinks about sorcery.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39One must always seize the moment.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Good luck.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59They committed a serious crime.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Giving a man a bed for the night?!
0:11:01 > 0:11:04- Not a man. A sorcerer. - Maybe they didn't know that?
0:11:04 > 0:11:06It is not for you to question my father's actions.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09- Is that understood? - Yes, Sire.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13Now go get on with whatever you're meant to be doing!
0:12:07 > 0:12:08Sound the warning bell!
0:12:08 > 0:12:10BELL RINGS
0:12:12 > 0:12:14He's just proved his guilt.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16But the trial, Father...
0:12:16 > 0:12:19The trial is a formality. Now I want him dead.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35DOORS OPEN
0:12:44 > 0:12:46Please...
0:13:03 > 0:13:05You have blood on your hands, Uther Pendragon.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09May I remind you that you are speaking to your King!
0:13:10 > 0:13:13May I remind you that a King is wise and just.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17You are neither. You rule only with the sword.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20You know nothing of what it means to be King.
0:13:20 > 0:13:24The fate of Camelot rests in my hands. It is my responsibility
0:13:24 > 0:13:27to protect the people of this land from enemies.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Then the Kingdom is doomed.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32For one by one you make enemies of us all.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36Take care, child, or I'll have you restrained.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39You just try.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52And you will remain here until you learn your lesson!
0:13:52 > 0:13:55Release me because I have learned it already.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58That you care not for me, or anyone but yourself.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00That you are driven mad with power.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02That you are a tyrant!
0:14:20 > 0:14:22All right?
0:14:24 > 0:14:27I just don't understand. Why did he try to escape?
0:14:27 > 0:14:29His trial was this morning.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31KNOCK ON DOOR
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Sire...
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Guinevere, I...
0:14:41 > 0:14:44want you to know that your job is safe.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48And that your home is yours for life.
0:14:48 > 0:14:49I guarantee you that.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54I know that
0:14:54 > 0:14:57under the circumstances
0:14:57 > 0:15:00it's not much but, erm,
0:15:00 > 0:15:03anything you want, anything you need,
0:15:03 > 0:15:06all you have to do is ask.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15I'm sorry.
0:15:15 > 0:15:16Thank you, Sire.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Now you listen to me.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44In two days' time, I'll be at the darkling woods at dawn.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48You find the stone, you bring it to me.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Merlin, come and take a look.
0:15:52 > 0:15:56I have been doing some research and found this.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58- The Mage Stone? - Wonder of the ancients.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Lost for a thousand years or more.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02What does it do?
0:16:02 > 0:16:07Theoretically, it could give the bearer the power of transformation.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Gold.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- The power of alchemy.- Exactly.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18I believe it was the Mage Stone you sensed on the night of Tom's arrest.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Of course!
0:16:20 > 0:16:24Gwen said that Tauren had some kind of stone.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29DOOR OPENS
0:16:33 > 0:16:35You.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37How proud you must be.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Son of the mighty Uther.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41How you must look up to him.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Does the King's little helper bring a message
0:16:46 > 0:16:48or have you just come to gloat?
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Guards!
0:16:56 > 0:16:57Get away from me, you cowards!
0:16:57 > 0:16:59You're free to go.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10- Morgana.- Yes?
0:17:12 > 0:17:16I swore to him you'd never challenge his authority again.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18I swore that you'd learned your lesson.
0:17:20 > 0:17:21Tread carefully.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Next time, I may not be able to help you.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Thank you.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32You're a better man than your father. Always were.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38My lady.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Gwen.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43I didn't expect to see you here.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47What happened to you?!
0:17:47 > 0:17:51Nothing. Well, nothing a hot bath wouldn't fix.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58I spent the night in the dungeon.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Uther.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02He doesn't like to be challenged.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06It wasn't about my father, was it?
0:18:06 > 0:18:10You have enough to deal with without worrying about such things.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12You shouldn't have done that!
0:18:12 > 0:18:19Not on my behalf. If anything happened to you, I couldn't bear it.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22You need to go home, Gwen.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25- Get some rest. Please. - I'm fine, my lady.
0:18:27 > 0:18:28Tauren...
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Tauren?!
0:18:31 > 0:18:34He attacked me! He threatened me!
0:18:34 > 0:18:37He was looking for some kind of stone.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40- Stone?- He's waiting for me in the darkling woods.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43I have to do something.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46If I don't get this stone to him by dawn tomorrow...
0:18:50 > 0:18:52What are you going to do?
0:18:52 > 0:18:54I'm going to send the guards, of course.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58It won't be you that Tauren meets. It'll be the Knights of Camelot.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35- Where's your maid? - I've come in her place.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Give me the stone.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42You were foolish to come here.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48The stone. You took it to the forge. Why?
0:20:48 > 0:20:53With it a man can alter the very essence of things.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56He can turn a lump of lead into gold.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Gold?
0:20:58 > 0:21:01A good man died in your quest for riches, Tauren.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03His daughter is now an orphan.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05I am sorry for that.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08Truly.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10But we did not want the gold to line our pockets.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13The gold was but a means,
0:21:13 > 0:21:18a means to rid this Kingdom of Uther Pendragon once and for all.
0:21:18 > 0:21:19What are you saying?
0:21:19 > 0:21:22Bribery is rife at Camelot.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26I will use the corruption at the heart of his kingdom,
0:21:26 > 0:21:30and such an abundance of gold will buy me into the King's chambers,
0:21:30 > 0:21:32even to the King himself.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36The guards may be fools, Tauren, but the King is not.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39Do you have a better plan?
0:21:39 > 0:21:43To get to Uther, you need someone close to him.
0:21:43 > 0:21:47And you know of such a person?
0:21:47 > 0:21:48I do.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Me.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Pass the salt, please.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08- You all right?- What?
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Yeah.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13I've got a few things on my mind, that's all.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Anything you'd like to talk to me about?
0:22:20 > 0:22:22I can't imagine you'd be interested.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27So long as you're sure.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30I should be getting to work.
0:22:32 > 0:22:33Er, Merlin?
0:22:35 > 0:22:37That's a broom cupboard.
0:23:05 > 0:23:06HE COUGHS
0:23:14 > 0:23:20Well, young warlock, what is it you come to ask of me?
0:23:21 > 0:23:25- I need your help.- Of course you do,
0:23:25 > 0:23:27but this time,
0:23:27 > 0:23:31will you heed my words?
0:23:31 > 0:23:35The sorcerer Tauren is plotting to kill the King.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37He has made an ally of Morgana.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39I don't know what to do!
0:23:39 > 0:23:40Do...
0:23:42 > 0:23:43..nothing.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45What do you mean?
0:23:45 > 0:23:48It is Uther that persecutes you and your kind, Merlin.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50But surely that doesn't make it right to kill him!
0:23:50 > 0:23:55Only if Uther dies can magic return to the land.
0:23:55 > 0:24:02Only if Uther dies will you be free, Merlin. Uther's reign is at an end.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Let Arthur's reign begin.
0:24:07 > 0:24:08Fulfil your destiny!
0:24:08 > 0:24:12Free this land from tyranny, Merlin.
0:24:12 > 0:24:16Free us all!
0:24:25 > 0:24:28DOOR OPENS
0:24:28 > 0:24:30I didn't expect to see you.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35You wish to say something?
0:24:35 > 0:24:37I came to apologise, my Lord.
0:24:37 > 0:24:38Good.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43I didn't mean to rile you.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45I thought only of Gwen.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49The poor girl is all alone in this world.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51It was not my intention to hurt your maid.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54I know.
0:24:54 > 0:24:55But now she suffers.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57And I know how she must suffer.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59- Morgana...- I only meant,
0:24:59 > 0:25:01I know what it's like to lose a father.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Your father was a great friend.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12You sent him into battle.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16You promised him reinforcements and then gave him none.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20- It was never my intention. - But it happened!
0:25:20 > 0:25:22And it keeps on happening.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26- Morgana!- I'm sorry, my lord.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Do you think Uther's a good King?
0:25:42 > 0:25:43Sorry?
0:25:43 > 0:25:47Uther. Do you think he's good for the Kingdom?
0:25:49 > 0:25:53Yes. Yes, I do.
0:25:53 > 0:25:57In the light of recent events, you may find that hard to believe.
0:25:57 > 0:26:01Hard? No. Impossible? Definitely.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05- Merlin...- Everyone hates him.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10It is not Uther's job to be liked.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13It is Uther's job to protect the Kingdom.
0:26:15 > 0:26:16Despite Uther's failings,
0:26:16 > 0:26:20he has brought peace and prosperity to this Kingdom.
0:26:20 > 0:26:24But at what cost? At the cost of women and children, fathers and sons!
0:26:24 > 0:26:25When will it end?
0:26:25 > 0:26:29It will end when Arthur is King.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32Then why not let that time be now?
0:26:32 > 0:26:35Why not let Arthur be King?
0:26:35 > 0:26:37Arthur's not ready.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40The responsibility would be too great.
0:26:40 > 0:26:44Brave though he may be, he lacks experience, he lacks judgment.
0:26:53 > 0:26:57- Is there anything you want to tell me?- I can't... I just..
0:26:57 > 0:27:02No, I can't. You've just got to trust me.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05Gaius, it's something I've got to work out for myself.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08I do trust you, Merlin.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Whatever it is,
0:27:10 > 0:27:13I know you'll make the right decision.
0:27:35 > 0:27:36Morgana!
0:27:39 > 0:27:42I'm not disturbing you, I hope?
0:27:42 > 0:27:43Not at all.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47These are difficult times.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51They put a strain on us all.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53Yes, my lord.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58I cannot tell you how much it pains me to be at odds with you.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01And I with you.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07I've been thinking about what you said.
0:28:07 > 0:28:14And I realise I may have been insensitive.
0:28:15 > 0:28:22I should have foreseen the distress that your maid's loss would cause,
0:28:22 > 0:28:25that it would stir old memories.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29I've opened an old wound.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34For that, I'm sorry.
0:28:34 > 0:28:39My Lord, it gladdens my heart to hear these words.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42I too wish to heal these wounds.
0:28:42 > 0:28:46Let us visit my father's grave together and put the past behind us.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49Nothing would give me greater happiness.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52Shall we leave tomorrow at first light?
0:28:52 > 0:28:55I will make arrangements.
0:29:09 > 0:29:10Psst!
0:29:22 > 0:29:25- So, My Lady, what news? - Uther has fallen for the bait.
0:29:25 > 0:29:29We ride out in the morning for the Old Cairn on the hill.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32Are you sure you're committed to this?
0:29:32 > 0:29:34More than ever.
0:29:52 > 0:29:54Merlin?
0:29:55 > 0:29:57Gwen. How are you doing?
0:29:57 > 0:30:00I was about to ask you the same question.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04I'm fine. Fine.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10Morgana's been amazing these last few days.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14I think you've been amazing.
0:30:14 > 0:30:18After all that's happened.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23Getting your life back together...
0:30:23 > 0:30:26It's better than sitting in an empty house,
0:30:26 > 0:30:28waiting for my father to walk through the door.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33The thing I find hardest to bear
0:30:33 > 0:30:35is that people will always think he was guilty
0:30:35 > 0:30:37because he tried to escape.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39I know he was innocent.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41I think he tried to escape because he knew
0:30:41 > 0:30:43that Uther had already made up his mind.
0:30:45 > 0:30:47That's the kind of man he is.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54I wouldn't blame you if you wanted him dead.
0:31:01 > 0:31:02What would that solve?
0:31:04 > 0:31:06That would make me as bad as him.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11You're right.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16Of course you're right.
0:31:16 > 0:31:17Is anything wrong?!
0:31:17 > 0:31:20No, no. See you later!
0:32:15 > 0:32:18Do you think that we could have some privacy?
0:32:18 > 0:32:22Fine. Wait here. We're in no danger.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11Father...
0:33:18 > 0:33:19Ackwele!
0:33:25 > 0:33:29Your father was the greatest man I've ever known.
0:33:29 > 0:33:33He stood for everything this kingdom represents.
0:33:35 > 0:33:39Truth, justice, valour.
0:33:41 > 0:33:45A hundred times he saved my life on the battlefield.
0:33:45 > 0:33:51His courage and his honour were without equal.
0:34:01 > 0:34:07When Gorlois died, I lost the truest friend I ever had.
0:34:07 > 0:34:11For he was as fearless in questioning my judgment as he was in defending my kingdom.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14That's the mark of a true friend.
0:34:15 > 0:34:19I know how he respected you, my lord.
0:34:21 > 0:34:24But I don't share these memories.
0:34:25 > 0:34:28How can I? I was ten years old.
0:34:28 > 0:34:33I only know I loved him and he was taken from me.
0:34:37 > 0:34:42When he died, and I took you into my care,
0:34:42 > 0:34:45you fought me from the beginning.
0:34:46 > 0:34:50Your will is as strong as my own.
0:34:50 > 0:34:54You challenge me as a friend must. As your father did in his time.
0:34:54 > 0:34:58But when I do, you clap me in irons.
0:34:58 > 0:35:01I know I'm not an easy man.
0:35:01 > 0:35:06My temper blinds me sometimes. There are things that I regret.
0:35:06 > 0:35:07Gwen's father?
0:35:12 > 0:35:14Yes.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33Ackwele!
0:35:46 > 0:35:50I will strive to listen to you more and quarrel with you less.
0:35:50 > 0:35:53You have been a blessing to me, Morgana.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55You are the daughter I never had.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57Your counsel is invaluable,
0:35:57 > 0:36:00as is your friendship and your love.
0:36:00 > 0:36:04- Without you I cannot hope to be the king this land deserves.- My lord...!
0:36:04 > 0:36:06Please forgive me, Morgana.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09No!
0:37:05 > 0:37:09- Ah. Busy day?- Had its moments.
0:37:09 > 0:37:13Morgana must have courage to defend a king against such odds.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16I suppose you had nothing to do with it?
0:37:16 > 0:37:20Oh, you know. Just background stuff.
0:37:20 > 0:37:24- No need to be so modest, Merlin. - Sorry.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26It's not a criticism.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29- It's a compliment.- Right.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33Thanks, Gaius.
