0:00:02 > 0:00:04In a land of myth and a time of magic
0:00:04 > 0:00:07the destiny of a great kingdom rests on the shoulders of a young man.
0:00:09 > 0:00:10His name...
0:00:10 > 0:00:11Merlin.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17ARTHUR: Well, this is nice, isn't it?
0:00:17 > 0:00:18Just the two of us.
0:00:19 > 0:00:21Well, three of us.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Merlin? Merlin doesn't count.
0:00:24 > 0:00:26I don't count.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29I'm not here, I'm not actually speaking right now.
0:00:29 > 0:00:32Aren't you impressed that I remembered our anniversary?
0:00:32 > 0:00:34But you didn't remember. I reminded you over a month ago.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38Yes...but I remembered that it was today...
0:00:39 > 0:00:40..today.
0:00:40 > 0:00:41Ah.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43Actually, I did.
0:00:43 > 0:00:44Shut up, Merlin!
0:00:45 > 0:00:47LAUGHING: I did!
0:01:06 > 0:01:07Arthur!
0:02:04 > 0:02:06You're very fortunate, sire.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08A fall like that, you could have broken your neck.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Have the men who attacked us been questioned?
0:02:10 > 0:02:12I'm sorry, sire, their wounds were fatal.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14We were unable to learn anything from them.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18We know one thing - it can't have been a coincidence they were there.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20- DOOR OPENS - Sire.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24We recovered your saddle from the forest trail.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26The girth has been unpicked and re-stitched.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28It was designed to break, sire.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32It appears, Merlin, on this single, solitary occasion...
0:02:34 > 0:02:35..you may be right.
0:02:44 > 0:02:45Afternoon, sir knights.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Horses shod and watered as requested.
0:02:48 > 0:02:49You are Tyr Seward?
0:02:49 > 0:02:50I am, Sir Gwaine.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52You know I am.
0:02:52 > 0:02:53Stable hand to the King?
0:02:53 > 0:02:55That is my honour, yes.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59Is the King not pleased with my work?
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Have I done something wrong?
0:03:04 > 0:03:07You are Gelda Seward, Mother of Tyr Seward?
0:03:07 > 0:03:09- Yes?- And you live here with your son?
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Is he in some kind of trouble?
0:03:11 > 0:03:14He's been arrested on suspicion of treason.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16No! No, that can't be, you've made a mistake!
0:03:16 > 0:03:18My Tyr's as loyal to the King as you are!
0:03:18 > 0:03:19Here.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23The thread we found at the boy's home
0:03:23 > 0:03:26matches that used to sabotage your saddle, sire.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30Who put you up to this, Tyr?
0:03:30 > 0:03:31No-one.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33No-one's put me up to anything, sire.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Are you saying you acted alone?
0:03:35 > 0:03:37You had no help, no accomplice?
0:03:37 > 0:03:40I don't know anything about these things you're talking about.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42I've done nothing, sire,
0:03:42 > 0:03:45save look after your horse and tack like I always do.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47The evidence is staring you in the face.
0:03:47 > 0:03:48You can't deny it.
0:03:50 > 0:03:51Sire...
0:03:51 > 0:03:53I swear on my mother's life...
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Just give me their name.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Why protect them?
0:03:59 > 0:04:02They can't help you now. Just give me their name.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06I have no name.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08There's no name to give.
0:04:08 > 0:04:09Then you leave me no choice.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Though it saddens me greatly to do so,
0:04:11 > 0:04:13I must charge you with treason.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Is there anything further...
0:04:19 > 0:04:21you'd like to say?
0:04:22 > 0:04:24You're my King, sire.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28I'd never do anything to hurt you. Never.
0:04:41 > 0:04:42Tyr Seward,
0:04:42 > 0:04:45by the power vested in me I hereby sentence you to death.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04How long have you known Tyr?
0:05:04 > 0:05:06He's been in my service since he was a boy.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Do you really think him capable of this treason?
0:05:08 > 0:05:10What I think is irrelevant - the facts speak for themselves.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Arthur, to sentence him to death...
0:05:12 > 0:05:16The law is the law, Merlin, whether I like it or not.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Why would Tyr want Arthur dead? It makes no sense.
0:05:21 > 0:05:26Perhaps he harboured some grudge, some festering resentment.
0:05:26 > 0:05:27What grudge could he bear?
0:05:27 > 0:05:29He loved his work, he was deeply proud of it.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31And Arthur respected him, I know he did.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34He always treated him fairly and well.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Merlin, it's not always possible to know
0:05:36 > 0:05:38what's in the mind of another man.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Maybe so, but Arthur was right about one thing.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Tyr could not have done this alone, someone else is involved.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46And, unless we find out who they are,
0:05:46 > 0:05:48what's to stop them from trying it again?
0:05:58 > 0:06:00- GWEN:- Arthur.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07I know you were fond of Tyr, but you had no choice.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10He was guilty.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Tyr Seward is a simple man.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15He can't have planned this assassination himself.
0:06:16 > 0:06:20Well, I know that's what you'd like to think. We all would.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24But, hard as it is to accept, even a great and honourable King
0:06:24 > 0:06:26has enemies within his walls.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29Very often the last person you would suspect.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32Tyr is just such a person.
0:06:38 > 0:06:39No, you're right.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45I suppose experience should have taught me that by now.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48The important thing is he didn't succeed.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52I've already lost my brother, I couldn't bear to lose you, too.
0:06:57 > 0:06:58I'm here, Guinevere.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01I always will be.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03I'll never leave you, I promise you that.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Thought you might like some food.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Cooking's not Gaius's strong point, as you know.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24Well, least it's not the turnip stew!
0:07:26 > 0:07:27Thank you, Merlin.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34I'd like to help you, Tyr, if I can.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36You heard the King.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- No-one can help me now. - I know you, Tyr.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Whatever you did, I don't believe you meant any harm.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43I didn't do anything. On my honour, I didn't.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48But something happened, didn't it?
0:07:48 > 0:07:50- No...- Tyr, please.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52I know you're not to blame, just tell me what happened.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53No! They'll...
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Who?
0:08:05 > 0:08:07This was a few days back.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09One of the horses came down with colic
0:08:09 > 0:08:12so I had to sleep in the stable to watch over him...
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Go on, it's all right.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20That night, I was woke up by a sound.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25There was someone there, going over the King's saddle.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27I knew it wasn't right.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31I tried to get away and warn someone...
0:08:31 > 0:08:33but they saw me.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37They told me if I so much as whispered a word of what I'd seen...
0:08:38 > 0:08:40..they'd take my mother.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43They'd take her...
0:08:43 > 0:08:44and they'd cut her throat.
0:08:49 > 0:08:50Who was it?
0:08:52 > 0:08:53I can't!
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Tyr, please, tell me.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01This is the only chance you have.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03You'll be hanged if you don't...
0:09:04 > 0:09:06And they'll kill my mother if I do.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07Tyr...
0:09:11 > 0:09:12..I can help you.
0:09:16 > 0:09:17No.
0:09:17 > 0:09:22If it means me dying instead of her, then so be it.
0:09:22 > 0:09:23I'd rather die.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31- 'You went to the cells to see Tyr?- Yes.'
0:09:31 > 0:09:34We've been over this before, we know what he said.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36The evidence doesn't lie.
0:09:36 > 0:09:37No-one denies the crime, sire,
0:09:37 > 0:09:40but the only part that Tyr played was to see it done.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42- He told you this? - Five minutes ago.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Then who was it?
0:09:44 > 0:09:46He won't say, he's too frightened. They threatened him.
0:09:48 > 0:09:49I must speak with him, at once.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Arthur, surely it can wait?
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- Gaius told you to rest, let your injuries heal.- I'll be fine,
0:09:54 > 0:09:56- I just want to hear what he has to say.- And you shall.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58But Tyr's said all he's willing to say for now.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03He's clearly frightened and unsure of what to do - don't push him.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Let him think it over
0:10:07 > 0:10:11and maybe after a night in the cells he'll be prepared to say more.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23As always, Guinevere...
0:10:23 > 0:10:24you're right.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Have you noticed anything about Gwen of late?
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Nothing unusual. Why?
0:10:38 > 0:10:39I'm not sure exactly.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43Something she's said? Something she's done?
0:10:43 > 0:10:46No. It's nothing in particular.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52It just seems to me that ever since she returned from the Dark Tower
0:10:52 > 0:10:53she hasn't been quite herself.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Well, is that so surprising? She lost her only brother.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Elyan was all the family she had.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01And grief changes people, Merlin.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05I know that. I do, but...
0:11:05 > 0:11:09Besides, we can only guess at what Morgana put her though.
0:11:11 > 0:11:12That's what worries me.
0:11:52 > 0:11:53Tyr.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56What are you doing here?
0:11:56 > 0:11:58Nothing to worry about. I just want to talk.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00- I've said nothing!- Shhhh.
0:12:00 > 0:12:01Come closer.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07We don't want to be heard, do we?
0:12:08 > 0:12:10I've told no names.
0:12:10 > 0:12:11I've not mentioned you to anyone.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13I believe you.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17My mother's safe? You've not harmed her?
0:12:17 > 0:12:21Your mother is alive and well. She's not the problem.
0:12:21 > 0:12:22You are.
0:12:22 > 0:12:26- Me?- You see, Tyr, it's not what you haven't said.
0:12:26 > 0:12:27It's what you may yet say.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Don't...
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Understand?
0:12:51 > 0:12:52The blade punctured his heart.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54He suffered very little, I'm glad to say.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56You've spoken to the night patrols?
0:12:56 > 0:12:58They saw nothing unusual, sire.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01What about the guards? Why didn't they raise the alarm?
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Sire. We found this in a grate in the guard-room.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Clary wort. A powerful soporific, sire.
0:13:14 > 0:13:15I've been a fool.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19I should have spoken to him when I had the chance.
0:13:21 > 0:13:22Arthur...
0:13:24 > 0:13:25What?
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Whoever did this was no stranger to Camelot.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31They knew the Citadel inside out.
0:13:54 > 0:13:55Guinevere.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57The plan failed. Arthur lives.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02Does he suspect you?
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Not yet.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06But the stable hand saw me.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08- He was going to tell them everything.- Was?
0:14:08 > 0:14:10You have some good news then.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13I did what had to be done.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16With Tyr gone you have to find someone else to take the fall.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19When Arthur dies you have to be beyond all suspicion.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22You must have the support of the knights -
0:14:22 > 0:14:25only with their allegiance will your path to the throne be clear.
0:14:25 > 0:14:26But what good is all this?
0:14:26 > 0:14:28- Arthur's still alive.- For now.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31By tonight you'll have everything you need to finish the job.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Arthur's doubled the guard, there are patrols night and day.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36- I can't risk leaving...- Gwen, Gwen.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38It is I that will come to you.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41HORSES APPROACHING
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Go!
0:15:24 > 0:15:25Gwen?
0:15:26 > 0:15:28I've been looking for you everywhere.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Arthur's been beside himself with worry.
0:15:31 > 0:15:35Well, there was no need to worry, I was just walking in the meadow.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37Since Elyan died...
0:15:37 > 0:15:39sometimes I just need time to myself.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42I understand, but you should be careful.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44A patrol was attacked in the woods only an hour ago.
0:15:44 > 0:15:45Oh, I had no idea.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Thank you, Merlin.
0:15:48 > 0:15:49I'll be more careful next time.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03No broken bones, I'm glad to say.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Anything else you remember?
0:16:06 > 0:16:09Nothing. One minute I was pursuing them through the trees.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11The next I was flat on the ground.
0:16:11 > 0:16:12You're sure it was sorcery?
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Without a doubt. Powerful, too.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- Morgana?- It's possible.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20- But why was she there? - Maybe she was meeting someone.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Why would she come so close to the Citadel?
0:16:22 > 0:16:25Maybe she had to. Maybe whoever she was meeting was here in Camelot.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Well, until we have more to go on this is idle speculation.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32Gaius, Merlin - see what you can find in the woods.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34Perhaps there's something we overlooked.
0:16:34 > 0:16:35I'll go with them.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38You'll do no such thing. You'll rest, Gwaine.
0:16:38 > 0:16:39Physician's orders.
0:16:47 > 0:16:48I don't think this is over.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50What do you mean?
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Whoever's responsible the attack on Arthur's life,
0:16:53 > 0:16:55what's to stop them from trying again?
0:16:55 > 0:16:58They haven't a chance, the Citadel's on full alert.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Every entrance, every exit's being watched. Trust me,
0:17:00 > 0:17:03Arthur's safe as long as he remains in Camelot.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05That's just it, what if he's not safe here?
0:17:05 > 0:17:08What if Camelot's the most dangerous place that he could be?
0:17:08 > 0:17:11Who could have had access to the stables, known the layout of the cells?
0:17:11 > 0:17:15Who knew that Tyr would do anything to protect his mother?
0:17:17 > 0:17:19You need to stay close to Arthur,
0:17:19 > 0:17:21and do whatever you can to protect him.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23You have my word on it, Merlin.
0:17:58 > 0:17:59Who are you?
0:17:59 > 0:18:00It matters not who I am,
0:18:00 > 0:18:03but what I want and whether you can give it to me.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05And what it is that you want?
0:18:05 > 0:18:08A tincture. With the power to kill.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12Not just to kill, but to do so slowly and with the utmost pain.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Very particular, what you seek.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17It has a very particular purpose.
0:18:18 > 0:18:19Well?
0:18:21 > 0:18:22Do you possess such a thing?
0:18:24 > 0:18:25I do.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Here.
0:18:38 > 0:18:39What are they?
0:18:39 > 0:18:44Valerian. Two drops will render the victim unconscious.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48And Henbane. A single drop administered through the ear.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Their death will be as...
0:18:50 > 0:18:53prolonged and as unpleasant as could be wished for.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58These are...uncommon things.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01Hard to come by, hard to prepare...
0:19:08 > 0:19:11Very generous, my Lady, more than enough to buy my wares.
0:19:13 > 0:19:14But not my silence.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20COINS CLATTER AND ROLL
0:19:37 > 0:19:38Arthur, are you all right?
0:19:39 > 0:19:41What if Merlin's right?
0:19:42 > 0:19:44What if Morgana did attack the patrol?
0:19:45 > 0:19:48- Morgana?- She wants me dead.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50What better way of achieving that
0:19:50 > 0:19:53than conspiring with an ally with in Camelot?
0:19:53 > 0:19:55An ally who she couldn't risk meeting within these walls?
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Who?
0:19:57 > 0:19:58Whoever killed Tyr.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03But that doesn't make sense. If you're the target, why kill Tyr?
0:20:03 > 0:20:05To protect their identity.
0:20:05 > 0:20:06Perhaps.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09Tyr's killer had an intimate knowledge of the palace.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11Whoever they were, they must be known to me,
0:20:11 > 0:20:13and they must be here as we speak.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19If what you say is true, they must be found quickly.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21And if they're not and strike again?
0:20:22 > 0:20:24I will not let that happen.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27I would lay down my life to protect you.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32You'll find them, Arthur. You and I together.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Gaius!
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Yes, that's certainly not natural.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06It was Morgana, I'm sure of it.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Are you sure we're in the right place?
0:21:10 > 0:21:12Gwaine said he spotted them somewhere around here.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16There. On that branch.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22It's not much to go on, is it?
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Raw imported silk.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Traders ask a small fortune for it.
0:21:31 > 0:21:34Whoever that belongs to is extremely wealthy.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39What is that? Some kind of embroidery?
0:21:39 > 0:21:41Indeed. Woven threads of silver and gold.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45Only those of the highest rank can afford such a thing.
0:21:48 > 0:21:53Merlin? Where are you going now?
0:22:13 > 0:22:14Merlin?
0:22:19 > 0:22:22Would you care to explain exactly what it is you're doing?
0:22:24 > 0:22:26I was just checking for holes.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Holes?
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Yes. That's where the hand goes.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38Granted. But look...
0:22:43 > 0:22:45That, I believe, is where the other hand goes.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49Right. I'm just saying that you can't be too careful.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51A lady's modesty is at stake, after all.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54Is it now? Merlin, I would strongly recommend
0:22:54 > 0:22:57you start showing a little less interest in Guinevere's clothing
0:22:57 > 0:23:00and a little more interest in mine.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05I think I prefer Gwen's.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07I'm going to do everything in my power
0:23:07 > 0:23:10to try and forget you ever just said that.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12I suggest you do the same.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Just a few drops will ease your troubles, my dear.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Do you understand?
0:23:41 > 0:23:43Yes.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45Come on.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48Are you prepared?
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Have you found someone to take the fall?
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Don't worry. I have someone in mind.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18Guinevere. I was beginning to wonder where you were.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21Sorry, I had some business to attend to in town.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23I hope you have an appetite.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Mmm. And a thirst.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30What took you into town?
0:24:30 > 0:24:33Oh, just delivering supplies to those most in need.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Your kindness never ceases to amaze me.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01Keep your grubby hands off of my dumplings!
0:25:27 > 0:25:29You know, now that I think of it,
0:25:29 > 0:25:32we never got to have our little celebration, did we?
0:25:32 > 0:25:35Yes, why was that?
0:25:35 > 0:25:36To us.
0:26:40 > 0:26:44All the evidence suggests that the King has been poisoned.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47You're certain, Gaius?
0:26:47 > 0:26:48Quite certain.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51The sweating, the corruption of the skin,
0:26:51 > 0:26:53the traces of tincture around the ear.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56They all point to the use of Henbane.
0:26:58 > 0:26:59Is there no hope?
0:26:59 > 0:27:03The poison is a deadly one, my lady.
0:27:03 > 0:27:07There may be a way to arrest its course but I cannot guarantee it.
0:27:10 > 0:27:14One thing I know for certain. Whoever did this lives among us.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Whoever did this has betrayed us all.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Someone who is free to roam this Citadel as they please,
0:27:22 > 0:27:25someone who has access to the King's stables,
0:27:25 > 0:27:27the King's prison...
0:27:29 > 0:27:31..even the King's food.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36There is only one I know of...
0:27:41 > 0:27:42Merlin.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01How is Arthur?
0:28:02 > 0:28:04There is no change.
0:28:07 > 0:28:11I know how you must feel - about Merlin.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14You must believe me when I say how sorry I am.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17But the evidence against him is overwhelming.
0:28:17 > 0:28:22You did what you had to do, Guinevere. You had no choice.
0:28:22 > 0:28:23I understand that.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25Thank you.
0:28:29 > 0:28:31Is there no hope, Gaius? None at all?
0:28:32 > 0:28:34I will not lie to you.
0:28:35 > 0:28:37Arthur's time is nearly upon him.
0:28:37 > 0:28:41But until the King draws his last breath,
0:28:41 > 0:28:43there is always hope.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01You were right, Merlin. Whatever Morgana did in the Dark Tower,
0:29:01 > 0:29:05she's taken control over Gwen and used her to get to Arthur.
0:29:05 > 0:29:06Can you save him?
0:29:06 > 0:29:09The poison is too strong, too virulent.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11METAL CLANKS
0:29:11 > 0:29:13Your magic is his only hope.
0:29:13 > 0:29:15You need to get me out of here somehow.
0:29:24 > 0:29:30You promised you'd never leave me, Arthur. You promised.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35He is our strength, our heart.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37How can I live without him?
0:29:37 > 0:29:40How can any of us live without him?
0:29:42 > 0:29:43Because we must.
0:29:45 > 0:29:50My lady. If Arthur is to die, we will lose more than that.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52The kingdom will lose its King.
0:29:52 > 0:29:55While Arthur lives, there is still a King of Camelot.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57But when the time comes,
0:29:57 > 0:30:00and it will surely come soon,
0:30:00 > 0:30:02we need to be prepared.
0:30:02 > 0:30:04If we do not have a leader
0:30:04 > 0:30:05and a guide...
0:30:07 > 0:30:10..Camelot and all the kingdom will be vulnerable.
0:30:10 > 0:30:14Everything Arthur worked so hard to achieve will be threatened.
0:30:16 > 0:30:18But who could wear his crown?
0:30:18 > 0:30:20He has no family to succeed him.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25And who among us is...worthy of such a thing?
0:30:27 > 0:30:28You are, my lady.
0:30:32 > 0:30:33Me?
0:30:33 > 0:30:35You are as close to family as Arthur has.
0:30:38 > 0:30:43No-one can deny your wisdom, your compassion and your loyalty.
0:30:43 > 0:30:48I am certain that were Arthur able to make this decision,
0:30:48 > 0:30:49he would choose you.
0:30:51 > 0:30:53I don't know what to say.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56I realise that this is a great responsibility
0:30:56 > 0:30:58but you will not be alone.
0:31:00 > 0:31:04I guarantee you, myself and all the knights will stand by you.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07Now and forever.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12Thank you, Leon.
0:31:12 > 0:31:14I am lucky indeed to have such friends.
0:31:45 > 0:31:46Who are you?
0:31:46 > 0:31:50What kind of a damn fool question is that?
0:31:50 > 0:31:52I am who I am and I am who I was
0:31:52 > 0:31:55and I am who I will always be.
0:31:55 > 0:31:56That's no answer.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59What other answer is there?
0:31:59 > 0:32:03- It's the only answer worth giving. - What are you doing here?
0:32:04 > 0:32:05Incredible.
0:32:05 > 0:32:08You follow one idiot question with another.
0:32:08 > 0:32:13I'm visiting the cells, as you perfectly well know.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16No, you're not. Not unless we say so, you're not.
0:32:16 > 0:32:19But you already said so. Only ten minutes ago you said so.
0:32:19 > 0:32:22- You said so and I did so! - No, we didn't.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24What on earth is wrong with you?
0:32:24 > 0:32:26Something interesting in your tea, is there?
0:32:26 > 0:32:30It's hardly any wonder your prisoners are being murdered
0:32:30 > 0:32:32if you can't even remember
0:32:32 > 0:32:36who you're letting in and who you're letting out. You let me in!
0:32:36 > 0:32:38And I thank you for that.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41And now, apparently, I have to let myself out. Ah!
0:32:42 > 0:32:44Goodbye!
0:32:58 > 0:33:00You! What are you doing in my kitchen?
0:33:00 > 0:33:03- Nothing.- Nothing means mischief in my book.
0:33:03 > 0:33:06- You've been reading the wrong book. - And mischief means theft.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09- No, it doesn't. - And theft means my pies.
0:33:09 > 0:33:10Your pies?
0:33:10 > 0:33:15Why on earth would anyone want to steal your godforsaken pies?
0:33:15 > 0:33:18My pies are the talk of Camelot!
0:33:18 > 0:33:21Oh, yes, indeed they are.
0:33:21 > 0:33:23A crust like rusted iron,
0:33:23 > 0:33:25a filling like last year's horse dung,
0:33:25 > 0:33:30and the smell, oh, yes, just like the guardhouse's latrine!
0:33:30 > 0:33:33No-one insults my pies and gets away with it!
0:33:33 > 0:33:37Oh, I'm sorry! Should I speak instead of your poisonous flans?
0:33:37 > 0:33:40Like vomit curdling in the noonday sun!
0:33:40 > 0:33:41Or your dumplings!
0:33:41 > 0:33:44The King himself likened them
0:33:44 > 0:33:47to freshly-lain frogspawn wrapped in pig's snot!
0:33:47 > 0:33:50- What would you know about the King and my dumplings?- Oh, good grief.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Should have done that years ago.
0:34:03 > 0:34:05WHOOSHING
0:34:17 > 0:34:19You there!
0:34:21 > 0:34:23You! Halt!
0:34:29 > 0:34:31There! This way!
0:34:48 > 0:34:50He's gone. We've lost him!
0:34:50 > 0:34:53Inform the men we have an intruder.
0:34:53 > 0:34:56Put the Citadel on high alert.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58BELLS PEAL
0:35:01 > 0:35:04GUARDS SHOUT
0:35:28 > 0:35:29Faerblaed waw!
0:35:35 > 0:35:38That was no wind. That was sorcery.
0:35:39 > 0:35:40Light the braziers!
0:35:40 > 0:35:43Search the courtyard!
0:35:47 > 0:35:50SHOUTING ECHOES
0:35:59 > 0:36:01Are you all right?
0:36:01 > 0:36:03- Yes.- You haven't seen anything?
0:36:03 > 0:36:05- Heard anything?- Nothing. Why?
0:36:05 > 0:36:07There's an intruder within our walls.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11- Here? In the Citadel?- Yes, my lady. We last saw them in the Main Square,
0:36:11 > 0:36:13- then lost sight of them. - My lady, you may be in danger.
0:36:13 > 0:36:16Gwaine will take you to the guest chambers.
0:36:16 > 0:36:19- He'll ensure no harm comes to you. - Why would anyone wish me harm?
0:36:19 > 0:36:22You are to be our leader, Gwen. You are Camelot's future.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25Do you imagine our enemies don't want you dead?
0:36:25 > 0:36:28- I can't leave Arthur, not now. - Gwen, I promise,
0:36:28 > 0:36:30if there is any change,
0:36:30 > 0:36:32I'll fetch you at once.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34Gaius is right. Come, my lady.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37You're not safe here.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43How on earth did you get in here?
0:36:43 > 0:36:45Don't even ask.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47How is he?
0:36:47 > 0:36:49His heart has nearly stopped.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52I fear he's close to death.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57The sickness is so deep in him.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03I don't know if I have the power to bring him back.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05You can do this, Merlin.
0:37:15 > 0:37:19Ic the thurhaele

0:38:02 > 0:38:03Gaius...
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Merlin...
0:38:09 > 0:38:12Well done, Merlin! Well done.
0:38:16 > 0:38:19You'd better get back to the cells before you're missed.
0:38:19 > 0:38:23There are guards on every floor and stairwell. How can I get back down?
0:38:23 > 0:38:26- The same way you came up, obviously. - Obviously...
0:38:38 > 0:38:40Morning, Merlin.
0:38:43 > 0:38:46If you've got a moment, the King would like a word.
0:38:59 > 0:39:02Merlin!
0:39:02 > 0:39:03This is one of the two...
0:39:03 > 0:39:05possibly three moments in my life
0:39:05 > 0:39:08where I've actually been glad to see you.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11That's my thoughts exactly, sire.
0:39:11 > 0:39:12How're you feeling?
0:39:14 > 0:39:17Like death. Well, death warmed up, at least.
0:39:18 > 0:39:20I can imagine.
0:39:20 > 0:39:23It seems like we've both been through something of an ordeal.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27It wasn't so bad, really.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29Once you get used to the eternal night and the rats,
0:39:29 > 0:39:33- the mouldy pillows, living with a bucket of your own...- Merlin.
0:39:34 > 0:39:38I'm sorry about what happened to you. Truly.
0:39:38 > 0:39:41Once I heard, I told them it couldn't have been you who poisoned me.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44I had the cook confirm your alibi.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47- Thank you.- I also told them you simply weren't bright enough
0:39:47 > 0:39:51- to organise an assassination attempt. - That's very thoughtful.
0:39:51 > 0:39:52You're welcome.
0:39:52 > 0:39:54- Arthur...- Hmm.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57- There is something I need to talk to you about.- Sorry, Merlin,
0:39:57 > 0:40:01another time. They're waiting for me in the Council Chambers.
0:40:01 > 0:40:04Thanks to Guinevere, some new evidence has come to light.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11The Queen found these vials in my chambers.
0:40:11 > 0:40:14They bear, as you can see, a distinctive mark.
0:40:15 > 0:40:19Thanks to her tireless efforts, she has been able to trace them.
0:40:19 > 0:40:21This is your mark, is it not?
0:40:21 > 0:40:23It is my mark, yes.
0:40:23 > 0:40:24And what does this vial contain?
0:40:24 > 0:40:27It...it's valerian, sire.
0:40:27 > 0:40:28What does it do?
0:40:28 > 0:40:32- It renders the subject unconscious. - This one?
0:40:33 > 0:40:35Henbane.
0:40:35 > 0:40:36It's a poison, my lord.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39A lethal poison.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42And it is only thanks to the great skill of my physician
0:40:42 > 0:40:44- that I am still alive. - I'm sorry, my lord.
0:40:44 > 0:40:48I supplied it, I confess. But I did not know it was intended for you.
0:40:48 > 0:40:52In truth, I was...too afraid to ask.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55Too afraid to ask who?
0:40:55 > 0:40:57She who...procured it.
0:40:59 > 0:41:03- And did you recognise this woman? - Well, I cannot say for certain
0:41:03 > 0:41:07but I believed it to be Morgana Pendragon.
0:41:17 > 0:41:21Because of the Queen's diligence, the truth has been uncovered.
0:41:24 > 0:41:26Each and every one of us owes her a great debt.
0:41:29 > 0:41:31Long live the Queen.
0:41:31 > 0:41:32- ALL:- Long live the Queen!
0:41:32 > 0:41:35Long live the Queen!
0:41:35 > 0:41:37Long live the Queen!
0:41:37 > 0:41:41Long live the Queen! Long live the Queen!
0:41:42 > 0:41:45Long live the Queen!
0:41:45 > 0:41:47Long live the Queen!
0:41:47 > 0:41:49Long live the Queen...
0:41:57 > 0:42:00You're not happy with your husband?
0:42:00 > 0:42:01I'd be happy if he died tomorrow.
