0:00:34 > 0:00:36Probably paid to look after them,

0:03:06 > 0:03:08HORSE WHINNIES

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Sh, sh, sh, sh, sh.

0:03:11 > 0:03:15Follow them as closely as you can. My guess is they're headed for Paris.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17I'll try and find out what's going on.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20This was no ordinary kidnapping, was it?

0:03:21 > 0:03:23Meet me at Bonacieux's house.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27I swear, I'll kill you. Who are you?

0:03:27 > 0:03:29My name is Aramis of the King's Musketeers.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32I have been sent to escort you and your son to the palace.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35- Why? - I was hoping you might tell me.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37How can I put this discreetly?

0:03:38 > 0:03:42Perhaps you went to a ball somewhere? Had a chance encounter

0:03:42 > 0:03:43with a charming and persuasive young man?

0:03:43 > 0:03:47One thing leads to another and nine months later little Henry comes along.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49- What kind of woman do you think I am?!- I really have no idea.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52I am faithful to my husband - Philippe Bernard!

0:03:53 > 0:03:56If this Philippe is truly the baby's father...

0:03:57 > 0:03:59..where is he now?

0:04:05 > 0:04:08I'm sorry. That was tactless.

0:04:08 > 0:04:10Just leave me alone.

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Father Duval!

0:04:12 > 0:04:13Don't go in there!

0:04:34 > 0:04:36MURMUR OF CONVERSATIONS

0:04:42 > 0:04:45- The thrill of the chase, Captain. - It is close to divine.

0:04:56 > 0:04:57Captain!

0:05:09 > 0:05:11It can't be.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15Guards! Protect the King!

0:05:15 > 0:05:16Quickly!

0:05:16 > 0:05:19PANICKED SHOUTING

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Out of the way, out of the way, out of the way!

0:05:21 > 0:05:23On your guard!

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Hold the line!

0:05:40 > 0:05:42I demand to see the King.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47HORSE WHINNIES

0:05:53 > 0:05:54My beloved son.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57I ordered you never to come back!

0:05:57 > 0:06:00Where else should I turn when I am in grave danger?

0:06:02 > 0:06:06You are banished for life on pain of execution!

0:06:07 > 0:06:09You tried to steal my throne!

0:06:09 > 0:06:10Oh!

0:06:10 > 0:06:16Now I'm obliged to cut off your head and place it on a spike for all Paris to ogle!

0:06:16 > 0:06:20Come inside, Sire. Leave this to the Cardinal and Captain Treville.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22Please, I beg of you!

0:06:23 > 0:06:25On my knees!

0:06:25 > 0:06:28In the name of the love you once bore me!

0:06:29 > 0:06:30I did love you.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32And you betrayed me.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34No!

0:06:35 > 0:06:37Your Majesty, the Queen is right. You must withdraw.

0:06:46 > 0:06:47Abandon me now and I'll die!

0:06:47 > 0:06:52Someone is trying to kill me!

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Please!

0:06:54 > 0:06:58How can she just appear like this?! Why does she insist on provoking me?!

0:06:58 > 0:07:01I suggest Your Majesty demonstrates his magnanimity by sparing her life.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03How can I? She was warned.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07If she ever showed her face in Paris again I would cut off her head!

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Decapitating one's mother is rarely

0:07:09 > 0:07:12popular with the people, Sire. It always looks a touch ungrateful.

0:07:12 > 0:07:13The threat she faces

0:07:13 > 0:07:16must be very real if she's prepared to risk her life by coming here.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19But we will find these assassins, Cardinal? I can't have people

0:07:19 > 0:07:21running around trying to kill my mother.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23Not unless I tell them to.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25The King's mother comes to you in peril

0:07:25 > 0:07:27and you treat her like a common criminal.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30So much for the chivalrous reputation of the Musketeers.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32I'm disappointed.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34But on the bright side, you're not dead yet.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36VINCENT CHUCKLES

0:07:36 > 0:07:38You think I'm frightened of the King's toy soldiers?

0:07:38 > 0:07:41For a glorified boot boy, you've got an awful lot to say.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Draw if you wish. It will be our duty to kill you

0:07:45 > 0:07:48- and, incidentally, our pleasure. - Vincent,

0:07:48 > 0:07:49I am weary.

0:07:49 > 0:07:54Gentlemen, I assure you, I have no argument with you.

0:08:02 > 0:08:06The King is occupied with pressing state business. He cannot see you.

0:08:06 > 0:08:10Her gracious Majesty has survived one attack only by God's grace.

0:08:10 > 0:08:12We are too few to withstand another attempt.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16His Majesty's decision is final.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20BABY CRIES

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Why would they take my baby?

0:08:31 > 0:08:34How long have you lived in the village?

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Something in your past might provide us with a clue.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40I've lived there ever since I fled my father's temper.

0:08:42 > 0:08:43Father Duval found me a place.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45What of your husband?

0:08:45 > 0:08:48He was a simple man, kind and decent.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50We met and fell in love.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52Look, it's her!

0:08:53 > 0:08:56Get away from us! The devil and his consort don't

0:08:56 > 0:08:57belong amongst decent people!

0:08:57 > 0:08:59SPITS

0:08:59 > 0:09:01Keep going.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05- What was all that about? - Ignorance and superstition.

0:09:35 > 0:09:39The Cardinal has a personal grudge against me.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43Captain, please, you are a reasonable man.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46You're escorting me home to my death.

0:09:46 > 0:09:50You forget I was there when you tried to seize power, Your Majesty.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53With respect, don't expect sympathy from me.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56BIRDS SCATTER

0:09:57 > 0:09:59Ambush!

0:09:59 > 0:10:01GUNFIRE

0:10:02 > 0:10:04- Are you hurt, Your Majesty? - No!

0:10:06 > 0:10:07Yah! Yah!

0:10:15 > 0:10:16Come on!

0:10:17 > 0:10:18GROANS

0:10:25 > 0:10:26No!

0:10:28 > 0:10:31No! We need him for questioning!

0:10:32 > 0:10:33No!

0:10:33 > 0:10:37No-one who seeks to harm my Queen warrants the privilege of questions!

0:10:51 > 0:10:55SHE GASPS (Your Majesty...)

0:11:04 > 0:11:05Go to her.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Are you harmed?

0:11:16 > 0:11:18Only a little shaken.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23And you killed these renegades?

0:11:23 > 0:11:26I did, Your Majesty.

0:11:28 > 0:11:29Captain?

0:11:29 > 0:11:32I have Musketeers searching for the assailants, Your Majesty.

0:11:32 > 0:11:33They will be brought to justice.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36I nearly lost my mother!

0:11:36 > 0:11:38God has seen to it

0:11:38 > 0:11:41that I shall not go to the grave without my son's love.

0:11:41 > 0:11:45He has sent me this chance to atone for my sins.

0:11:47 > 0:11:48I'm so sorry.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51I beg your forgiveness with all of my heart.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06These attempts on Marie de Medici's life? Why bother?

0:12:06 > 0:12:08She's made many enemies over the years.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11Perhaps it's revenge, or some long-standing grudge.

0:12:11 > 0:12:16I've received intelligence. Rumours only. Regarding certain families.

0:12:16 > 0:12:20The Duke of Vendome, the Duke of Epernon and the Duke of Rohan.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23- What kind of rumours? - That they are raising militias.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Oh! And when exactly were you thinking of telling me?

0:12:25 > 0:12:27When I knew that they were more than rumours.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29They are all former allies of hers.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32This is Marie de Medici.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34Trust your instincts, Captain.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36There's always something more to it.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41I remember the days of her attempted coup all too well.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44The chaos, the bloodshed, brother against brother.

0:12:44 > 0:12:45I never want to see those times again.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47On that we are agreed.

0:12:49 > 0:12:50Any news on that child I sent for?

0:12:50 > 0:12:53Aramis and d'Artagnan aren't back yet.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Let me know when they return.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00If you were Marie's personal guard, wouldn't you want to ask questions,

0:13:00 > 0:13:04find out who's behind this? Why kill them when he didn't have to?

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Vincent was out of control.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09A good soldier is never out of control.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11And he's one of the best.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17They had the weaponry of a small army...

0:13:18 > 0:13:22- ..yet not one shot found its mark? - Not a scratch on any of us.

0:13:22 > 0:13:27Wouldn't you expect to see at least some damage to the trees?

0:13:27 > 0:13:30Or the odd piece of splintered bark? There's just nothing.

0:13:30 > 0:13:31I don't see any used wadding.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33And no spent musket balls.

0:13:35 > 0:13:37SWORDS CLASH

0:13:37 > 0:13:38HORSE WHINNIES

0:13:41 > 0:13:44Captain, there were eight shots, no damage

0:13:44 > 0:13:46and not a single injury to anyone.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48The gunshots were nothing more than a firework display.

0:13:48 > 0:13:49You're certain?

0:13:49 > 0:13:52Either that or they were the worst assassins ever.

0:13:52 > 0:13:55The last time I went up against Marie de Medici she threw me in prison.

0:13:55 > 0:13:59I'd rather not go back. If this ambush was staged, I need to know why.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01Vincent could have captured the gunmen.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03They would have talked sooner or later.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05He wanted to make sure they didn't.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08Keep watch on him. And Marie, if you can.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11Either he's manipulating her or they're in it together.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14Either way, we need to know what the endgame is.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40I've made many mistakes in my life.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54- That is a strange word for treason. - HE SCOFFS

0:14:57 > 0:14:58I was only trying to protect you.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01Was it not you he needed protection from?

0:15:05 > 0:15:08I felt guilty...

0:15:09 > 0:15:12..for burdening you before your years.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16You were so young when your father died.

0:15:18 > 0:15:19I had a vision...

0:15:21 > 0:15:23..that I could carry your burden,

0:15:23 > 0:15:28whilst you learned and grew into a great leader.

0:15:29 > 0:15:35I was trying to be your mother and your father.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37I failed at both

0:16:05 > 0:16:07When you become a mother...

0:16:09 > 0:16:11..you will learn from my misjudgements.

0:16:14 > 0:16:15If I ever become one.

0:16:17 > 0:16:18Have I spoken out of turn?

0:16:20 > 0:16:21You are young.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24You have time.

0:16:25 > 0:16:30When it happens, you will love your son all the more.

0:16:32 > 0:16:33HE SOBS

0:16:48 > 0:16:51I can't pretend to imagine what you're going through.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Anything?

0:16:57 > 0:16:59I'll go and join d'Artagnan.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38Do you have a family?

0:17:39 > 0:17:42Not unless you count the Musketeers.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45No wife?

0:17:47 > 0:17:48Something always gets in the way.

0:17:50 > 0:17:51Have you ever felt it?

0:17:51 > 0:17:53Love?

0:17:54 > 0:17:57I mean real, true love?

0:17:58 > 0:18:01That need that leaves you incapable of existing

0:18:01 > 0:18:03without the other person?

0:18:06 > 0:18:08I was 16.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12We were going to marry but it didn't work out.

0:18:14 > 0:18:15She changed her mind.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19I was heartbroken.

0:18:20 > 0:18:2216?

0:18:24 > 0:18:26And you haven't loved since?

0:18:34 > 0:18:37If I answer, will you tell me why those people on the road ran from you?

0:19:08 > 0:19:09Making yourself comfortable?

0:19:09 > 0:19:11I wanted to ask you a favour.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13From me?!

0:19:13 > 0:19:15Speak to the King on my behalf.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17You seem to be doing that perfectly well on your own.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19I'm not sure he believes I've abandoned

0:19:19 > 0:19:21all my ambitions for power.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25It was a mother's love that drove you to it.

0:19:25 > 0:19:30All you desire is the restoration of your son's affection

0:20:18 > 0:20:21You presume too much.

0:20:24 > 0:20:27My husband, Philippe, was like a helpless child when I first met him.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31He'd been locked away so long, he never learned to fend for himself.

0:20:34 > 0:20:35He didn't look like other men.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40He was malformed from birth.

0:20:40 > 0:20:42Touched by the devil, they said.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44I was sent to be his nurse.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46I was petrified. I'd believed everything I'd heard.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50He had the kindest heart I've ever known.

0:20:50 > 0:20:53He was shy and confused.

0:20:53 > 0:20:57Frightened. But full of innocent love and goodness.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03- What of his family? - Well, they abandoned him at birth.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07His mother came to visit once. In secret, because she was ashamed.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14I was lonely and he was kind.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19I soon learned to see the beauty of his soul.

0:21:21 > 0:21:22And I fell in love with him.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28We married in secret.

0:21:28 > 0:21:32Father Duval had kept Philippe out of sight for most of his life

0:21:32 > 0:21:34and when Henry was born, everything changed.

0:21:34 > 0:21:38Philippe felt alive. He refused to hide any longer.

0:21:39 > 0:21:43We walked through the village together as a family.

0:21:43 > 0:21:44That must have been a fine moment.

0:21:48 > 0:21:49They beat him...

0:21:50 > 0:21:52..until his bones shattered.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56Burned him while he still breathed life.

0:21:56 > 0:22:01- You saw this? You were there? - They made me watch.

0:22:04 > 0:22:05He's still with me.

0:22:07 > 0:22:08In here.

0:22:12 > 0:22:13And in Henry.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19SHE SOBS

0:22:20 > 0:22:26I promise you, on my honour, the safe return of your child.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34What are we looking for again?

0:22:34 > 0:22:37A way in. A way out.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40Which room the baby's in. Anything that helps, really.

0:22:41 > 0:22:45- I can fight. - You're not going in there.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47Because you don't trust me?

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Because I couldn't forgive myself if you were harmed.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59Did you see the look on Agnes's face when she spoke about Henry?

0:23:03 > 0:23:05That bond. (SIGHS)

0:23:07 > 0:23:09To value something over your own life.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12I want to know love that strong.

0:23:12 > 0:23:16You'll have children of your own soon enough.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20I suppose. If it's meant to be.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Who are they?

0:23:24 > 0:23:25Wet nurses.

0:23:25 > 0:23:28How do you think the baby's been feeding?

0:23:35 > 0:23:36What?

0:23:38 > 0:23:41- Oh, no. No! - (Yes.)

0:23:41 > 0:23:42- I can't! - Why not?!

0:23:42 > 0:23:44How can I be a wet nurse if I haven't got any milk?

0:23:44 > 0:23:46Improvise!

0:23:47 > 0:23:50We need to know which room the baby's in and how many men there are.

0:23:50 > 0:23:54He likes music. If he cries, sing him a lullaby.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57Will humming do? My singing might frighten him.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00Then give him this. Tell him I love him.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03I thought you weren't going to let me in there?

0:24:03 > 0:24:06I wasn't. But that was before I had a brilliant plan.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08Be careful.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Thanks for the tip.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13I'll bear it in mind. Any other useful advice?

0:24:26 > 0:24:27Come in.

0:24:30 > 0:24:31What happened to the other girl?

0:24:32 > 0:24:34She's sick.

0:24:34 > 0:24:37Good. You've got a nicer backside.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39HE CACKLES

0:24:47 > 0:24:50Oh! She told me you were quite the charmer.

0:24:50 > 0:24:54Now, hands off. I've got work to do.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13I'm new.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17This is baby Henry.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21He's just been fed and changed.

0:25:21 > 0:25:22Hello.

0:25:33 > 0:25:38I've brought you a message from somebody who loves you very much.

0:25:38 > 0:25:39Yeah.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51That means nine men.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13- What do you want? - I'm here to see the Cardinal.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16Is he expecting you?

0:26:16 > 0:26:18Tell him Father Duval is here. I wrote to him.

0:26:18 > 0:26:20He's busy.

0:26:20 > 0:26:24I have information of vital importance for His Eminence.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31- (GASPS)- Hmm?

0:26:33 > 0:26:35- What are you doing? - I'm going to see him.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38What do you mean? You can't! You'll ruin everything!

0:26:38 > 0:26:40The plan was to get the baby tonight.

0:26:40 > 0:26:43I think you forget who you're talking to!

0:26:43 > 0:26:46- Your Majesty, forgive me but... - You can either help me

0:26:46 > 0:26:48or you can be gone by the time I return.

0:26:48 > 0:26:51Frankly, I don't care which.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28What in God's name is she doing here?

0:27:35 > 0:27:37I know that woman.

0:27:50 > 0:27:51This can't be a coincidence.

0:27:52 > 0:27:54You sent me this.

0:27:56 > 0:27:59"There is a child here of great significance.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02"He urgently needs your protection.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05"I beg your help with all possible speed."

0:28:09 > 0:28:11Who is this child?

0:28:11 > 0:28:13I can explain everything.

0:28:13 > 0:28:15Was that who I think it was?

0:28:15 > 0:28:17Marie de Medici. We've followed her here from the Palace.

0:28:17 > 0:28:21Don't be ridiculous. That's just Philippe's mother!

0:28:21 > 0:28:24Are you certain that's the woman who came to visit your husband?

0:28:24 > 0:28:25Yes!

0:28:28 > 0:28:29Constance is in there on her own.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31Aw, yeah.

0:28:31 > 0:28:33BABY COOS

0:28:38 > 0:28:43Marie, Her Majesty fell ill on her journey to Fontainebleau,

0:28:43 > 0:28:46and I was afraid she would lose the child.

0:28:46 > 0:28:47And the court officials?

0:28:47 > 0:28:51Rushing to make it in time for the birth.

0:28:52 > 0:28:56But when the child was born, it was deformed.

0:28:58 > 0:28:59Marie was distraught.

0:29:01 > 0:29:03Why had France been cursed?

0:29:03 > 0:29:07And then our prayers were answered.

0:29:09 > 0:29:11The midwife announced...

0:29:13 > 0:29:15(..that there was another.)

0:29:16 > 0:29:22The deformed child Philippe, had a younger twin - Louis.

0:29:22 > 0:29:24My special boy!

0:29:24 > 0:29:29- BABY COOS - You are...perfect!

0:29:29 > 0:29:31Yes, you are.

0:29:31 > 0:29:34Hmm. You have your grandfather's eyes.

0:29:34 > 0:29:39You will be brave and wise, the strongest and the most handsome.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42The most celebrated and the most beloved.

0:29:42 > 0:29:46We are going to do great and marvellous things together.

0:29:46 > 0:29:50They'll see that we know best. Won't they see?

0:29:57 > 0:30:02The court officials arrived in time to see Louis born,

0:30:02 > 0:30:05ignorant of what had gone before.

0:30:06 > 0:30:10I spirited Philippe away.

0:30:10 > 0:30:12Marie charged me with his care.

0:30:14 > 0:30:16I protected him.

0:30:17 > 0:30:20There can be no doubt of the validity of the marriage?

0:30:20 > 0:30:24Oh, none at all. I performed the ceremony myself.

0:30:24 > 0:30:27So their child is legitimate.

0:30:28 > 0:30:32And you haven't mentioned his birth to another living soul?

0:30:32 > 0:30:34Only you.

0:30:34 > 0:30:36And the baby's grandmother, of course.

0:30:44 > 0:30:46BABY CRIES

0:32:34 > 0:32:37Hello. So you're the one who all the fuss is about?

0:32:40 > 0:32:43- BABY CRIES - He's crying.

0:32:43 > 0:32:45Sing. He likes that.

0:34:32 > 0:34:34You really loved Philippe.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40Even though...

0:34:40 > 0:34:45You learn to see past appearances, into people's inner most desires.

0:34:47 > 0:34:49His were true and honest.

0:34:51 > 0:34:54We saved each other from a life in the shadows.

0:34:59 > 0:35:02You know death is typically a release from the vows of marriage.

0:35:05 > 0:35:07My husband is gone. That's just my ill fortune.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12But I will remain faithful to him.

0:35:19 > 0:35:20A life alone?

0:35:21 > 0:35:23You deserve better.

0:35:27 > 0:35:28I'm not alone.

0:35:31 > 0:35:32Are you?

0:35:35 > 0:35:37TREVILLE: Are you certain?

0:35:37 > 0:35:41- RICHELIEU:- Philippe's son should wear the crown instead of King Louis.

0:35:41 > 0:35:43Marie will present the infant to the Royal Council...

0:35:44 > 0:35:46..with records proving his claim.

0:35:46 > 0:35:50She's been gathering support to topple the King in the name of her grandson?

0:35:52 > 0:35:53Bring me that child.

0:35:53 > 0:35:55So, what do we do now?

0:35:55 > 0:35:57The boy goes to the Cardinal.

0:35:57 > 0:36:00- And what then? - Is the child ready?

0:36:00 > 0:36:01Hasn't the woman suffered enough?

0:36:01 > 0:36:04Absolutely. She's been with Aramis for two days!

0:36:07 > 0:36:09You know what will happen. The boy will disappear.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11He'll be murdered and Agnes too, probably.

0:36:11 > 0:36:16I'm sorry. My hands are tied. You have to take him to the Cardinal.

0:36:16 > 0:36:18I'd go with you myself, but I'm busy. Damn paperwork.

0:36:19 > 0:36:23It'll take me the rest of the afternoon...at least.

0:36:37 > 0:36:38Where's the child?!

0:36:46 > 0:36:47Aramis?

0:36:49 > 0:36:50Aramis?

0:36:54 > 0:36:56He's gone.

0:36:56 > 0:36:57Right, what are we going to do?

0:37:03 > 0:37:06SHEEP BLEAT BACKGROUND CHATTER

0:37:10 > 0:37:13The rest when my friends are on their way to Spain.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22Meet the transport over there.

0:37:22 > 0:37:23Don't delay or they won't wait for you.

0:37:23 > 0:37:26You leave in an hour.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29I already told you. I'm not leaving! I'm going home!

0:37:29 > 0:37:31HE SIGHS

0:37:33 > 0:37:35What do you think will happen if you go back to the village?

0:37:36 > 0:37:39Well, I will carry on with my life bothering no-one, raising my son.

0:37:39 > 0:37:43Wake up! Do you think Marie de Medici will stop?

0:37:43 > 0:37:46You think the Cardinal will allow this threat to continue?

0:37:46 > 0:37:50Neither of them will let you live in peace as long as Henry lives.

0:37:52 > 0:37:54What if I went to the palace?

0:37:54 > 0:37:56Henry is of the royal line, the King's nephew.

0:37:56 > 0:38:01They might welcome him. Perhaps we could live there, in the grounds.

0:38:01 > 0:38:04Henry would have schooling, privileges.

0:38:04 > 0:38:06You'd be dead within a week!

0:38:06 > 0:38:07Poison in your food,

0:38:07 > 0:38:10a knife twisted in your ribs

0:38:10 > 0:38:12in a long, empty corridor.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14You are an expendable nuisance,

0:38:14 > 0:38:16nothing more.

0:38:18 > 0:38:21At best, Henry would be brought up the child of another,

0:38:21 > 0:38:26his life endlessly manipulated by those who go to any lengths for power. At best.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29At worst...

0:38:29 > 0:38:31HENRY CRIES

0:38:35 > 0:38:37You can never go home, Agnes.

0:38:38 > 0:38:42If you want a life with your son, you leave, for ever.

0:38:42 > 0:38:46Now. And never look back.

0:38:46 > 0:38:47HENRY COOS

0:39:02 > 0:39:06There. You look just like him.

0:39:06 > 0:39:10- My father? - He would be so very proud of you.

0:39:10 > 0:39:11Hmm...

0:39:14 > 0:39:17I'm glad you came, Mother.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19Perhaps, we might be friends after all.

0:39:20 > 0:39:21What more could I want?

0:39:28 > 0:39:30Well, I must be leaving.

0:39:30 > 0:39:32Time to make a kill.

0:39:32 > 0:39:35- CARDINAL:- Hunting is out of the question, Your Majesty.

0:39:35 > 0:39:38Until those plotting to kill your mother are found,

0:39:38 > 0:39:40you must stay in the palace.

0:39:40 > 0:39:45A man has his needs. He's the King! He must do as he pleases.

0:39:46 > 0:39:47Mother knows best, Cardinal.

0:39:47 > 0:39:49One must think of France...

0:39:51 > 0:39:54..and how she would suffer if something were to happen to her ruler.

0:39:57 > 0:40:01I am sure the Cardinal only has your best interests at heart.

0:40:03 > 0:40:05Being King can be so boring!

0:40:10 > 0:40:12(LOUIS SHOUTS) It is so unfair!

0:40:15 > 0:40:21Bravo. I'm not unable to savour a stratagem of elegant construction.

0:40:21 > 0:40:23Are you feeling quite well?

0:40:23 > 0:40:26- (SCOFFS)- Come now.

0:40:26 > 0:40:29Let's not pretend we both don't know what big teeth you have...

0:40:30 > 0:40:32..Grandmother.

0:40:34 > 0:40:35Hmm.

0:40:35 > 0:40:37This is the place to come

0:40:37 > 0:40:39if you're looking for quick passage out of the country.

0:40:40 > 0:40:41Let's split up, shall we?

0:41:00 > 0:41:02Porthos.

0:41:10 > 0:41:11Good afternoon.

0:41:13 > 0:41:16Excuse us, Madame.

0:41:16 > 0:41:18- I won't come back.- I'm not handing them over to the Cardinal.

0:41:18 > 0:41:20Aramis, that baby is the heir to the throne.

0:41:20 > 0:41:22They could charge you with treason.

0:41:22 > 0:41:24I made her a promise.

0:41:25 > 0:41:27Then we'd better help you.

0:41:29 > 0:41:32You didn't really think we were going to take the baby, did you?

0:41:32 > 0:41:34If you'd told us what you were doing

0:41:34 > 0:41:35we might have been able to plan this properly.

0:41:35 > 0:41:37Yes, sorry.

0:41:37 > 0:41:39No, no, let's keep it suicidal.

0:41:42 > 0:41:44Don't get involved.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47That's what you said.

0:41:47 > 0:41:48How's that working out for you?

0:41:54 > 0:41:56Things just got complicated.

0:41:56 > 0:41:58Vincent.

0:41:58 > 0:42:00Out of the way! Get out of the way!

0:42:02 > 0:42:03Move!

0:42:03 > 0:42:06HORSES WHINNY

0:42:07 > 0:42:08The bridge.

0:42:21 > 0:42:23It's too late to do anything.

0:42:23 > 0:42:26Just in case you thought there was still a chance.

0:42:28 > 0:42:31Poor Louis. My heart bleeds for him.

0:42:31 > 0:42:33You have one(?)

0:42:33 > 0:42:36Come on, we both know this is for the greater good.

0:42:36 > 0:42:40He is a weak man and a bad King.

0:42:40 > 0:42:44He'll be so much happier living out his days in peaceful seclusion.

0:42:44 > 0:42:47The few days that remain to him, you mean.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49You think I would kill my own son?

0:42:49 > 0:42:51I think that you would strangle him with your bare hands

0:42:51 > 0:42:53to get to the throne.

0:42:54 > 0:42:57To have had such power and see it prised from your grasp,

0:42:57 > 0:42:58it must be unbearable.

0:42:58 > 0:43:00You presume that's my motive.

0:43:01 > 0:43:03Trivial revenge?

0:43:05 > 0:43:06No.

0:43:07 > 0:43:12This is about keeping the royal power supreme in France.

0:43:13 > 0:43:16That which my husband's blood was shed to protect.

0:43:18 > 0:43:21And I take it that supreme power...

0:43:22 > 0:43:24..is embodied in you?

0:43:26 > 0:43:28You know I could use a man of your talents...

0:43:28 > 0:43:31once you'd taken an oath of allegiance, naturally.

0:43:38 > 0:43:40Are you making me a proposition?

0:43:40 > 0:43:45Mm. You have less than one hour...

0:43:45 > 0:43:50until my armies are given the word to march on Paris to acclaim their new king.

0:43:50 > 0:43:53I'd consider your options carefully.

0:43:54 > 0:43:56Cake?

0:43:57 > 0:43:59Mm-hm.

0:43:59 > 0:44:01I want you to head across the bridge and wait for me there.

0:44:01 > 0:44:03Leave Henry here with me.

0:44:03 > 0:44:05- Aramis? - If you walk out there together

0:44:05 > 0:44:06they'll be on to you in seconds.

0:44:08 > 0:44:11I will get Henry across the bridge.

0:44:13 > 0:44:15BABY WHIMPERS

0:44:15 > 0:44:18I swore no harm would come to him.

0:44:19 > 0:44:21Now go. Go.

0:44:57 > 0:44:58Go right down there.

0:44:58 > 0:45:02Next time I bribe someone, remind me to bring more money.

0:45:02 > 0:45:05Two of you over the bridge, another two fan out this side.

0:45:05 > 0:45:08So? How should we do this?

0:45:11 > 0:45:14These barrels contain brandy. A rather good Armagnac, I believe.

0:45:14 > 0:45:16Athos, now is not the time.

0:45:16 > 0:45:18BABY GURGLES

0:45:18 > 0:45:20Oh. I see.

0:45:20 > 0:45:21ATHOS CHUCKLES

0:45:25 > 0:45:27What a waste!

0:45:31 > 0:45:32HE GRUNTS

0:45:40 > 0:45:41Go, go, go, go, go.

0:45:57 > 0:45:59HORSE NEIGHS

0:46:02 > 0:46:04HORSE GALLOPS

0:46:04 > 0:46:06HORSE NEIGHS

0:46:06 > 0:46:07Come on!

0:46:09 > 0:46:10Yah! Yah!

0:46:14 > 0:46:16HORSE WHINNIES

0:46:16 > 0:46:18- Hand over the child! - Or what?

0:46:18 > 0:46:19I seize him by force.

0:46:28 > 0:46:30SOUND MUFFLED

0:46:32 > 0:46:35No!

0:46:36 > 0:46:39- No... - SHE SOBS

0:46:39 > 0:46:42No! Henry!

0:46:42 > 0:46:44- No! - Henry!

0:46:44 > 0:46:46- Henry! - No!

0:46:46 > 0:46:48No! Agnes!

0:46:49 > 0:46:51What more do you want?!

0:46:51 > 0:46:52Huh?!

0:46:52 > 0:46:55SHE SOBS

0:46:58 > 0:47:00- VINCENT:- Ha! - HORSES GALLOP AWAY

0:47:17 > 0:47:19Hmm!

0:47:19 > 0:47:21I'm intrigued.

0:47:23 > 0:47:27Will you stride into court brandishing the child like a trophy,

0:47:27 > 0:47:29- proclaiming him the rightful heir? - More or less.

0:47:29 > 0:47:33Then I shall present Father Duval, who witnessed the birth of my first-born.

0:47:33 > 0:47:34He's here

0:47:34 > 0:47:36in the palace.

0:47:36 > 0:47:39I have my spies, too, Cardinal.

0:47:39 > 0:47:41The support of key figures in the regions,

0:47:41 > 0:47:42a lack of confidence in Louis

0:47:42 > 0:47:45and, of course, the fact that there is no heir

0:47:45 > 0:47:48will bring the council and the nobility over to my side.

0:47:48 > 0:47:49You've rehearsed this.

0:47:49 > 0:47:51My enemies will be offered a very simple choice.

0:47:51 > 0:47:53Accept I'm taking power,

0:47:53 > 0:47:57or death, or prison when we storm the palace.

0:47:57 > 0:48:00And is the King included amongst your enemies?

0:48:00 > 0:48:04You mean the pretender, Louis.

0:48:04 > 0:48:08I hope he will surrender his false claim with grace and humility.

0:48:08 > 0:48:10But if not...

0:48:14 > 0:48:16Make your choice now, Cardinal.

0:48:17 > 0:48:21I'd hate to end our relationship on a sour note.

0:48:21 > 0:48:22Captain Treville.

0:48:29 > 0:48:33May I be the first to offer my condolences,

0:48:33 > 0:48:35Your Majesty?

0:48:36 > 0:48:38What are you talking about?

0:48:38 > 0:48:39- RICHELIEU:- Such a tragedy.

0:48:41 > 0:48:45There'll be no coup. No regency. No power.

0:48:46 > 0:48:50Just a sad, deluded, old woman, with nothing.

0:48:52 > 0:48:55Your grandson. Henry, isn't it? He perished.

0:49:00 > 0:49:01You're lying.

0:49:20 > 0:49:21SHE WHIMPERS

0:49:26 > 0:49:28SUPPRESSED SOBS

0:49:43 > 0:49:46Happily, the plot to kill Marie de Medici has been foiled.

0:49:46 > 0:49:50It appears the chief culprit was her trusted lieutenant, Vincent.

0:49:50 > 0:49:52He will be dealt with accordingly.

0:49:54 > 0:49:56Unless any of you think that the King, or France,

0:49:56 > 0:49:58would benefit from the execution of his own mother?

0:50:04 > 0:50:05Good.

0:50:06 > 0:50:10Then that is all His Majesty ever needs to know.

0:50:17 > 0:50:19DOOR OPENS

0:50:27 > 0:50:28What's going on?

0:50:37 > 0:50:38HE GROANS

0:50:57 > 0:51:00Enjoy your retirement.

0:51:13 > 0:51:15HORSE WHINNIES

0:51:25 > 0:51:28What more could you want from me? Why drag me here now?

0:51:28 > 0:51:30I know you've endured hell.

0:51:32 > 0:51:35I'm sorry you had to suffer so terrible a blow. I should apologise.

0:51:36 > 0:51:38I should have told you the truth.

0:51:38 > 0:51:41But if you hadn't been convincing as a grieving mother

0:51:41 > 0:51:42they would have seen right through it.

0:51:42 > 0:51:46This was the only way I could see you and Henry having any kind of life together.

0:51:48 > 0:51:51What life?

0:52:06 > 0:52:08BABY GURGLES Henry?

0:52:08 > 0:52:10BABY GURGLES Henry?

0:52:12 > 0:52:14Oh...

0:52:17 > 0:52:18Oh...Henry!

0:52:18 > 0:52:20Henry! Henry!

0:52:20 > 0:52:21Oh...

0:52:21 > 0:52:24SHE SOBS

0:52:24 > 0:52:26You didn't want to give him back, did you?

0:52:28 > 0:52:30Was it that obvious?

0:52:35 > 0:52:38It's not every day you get to save the King's life.

0:52:39 > 0:52:40ATHOS: He'll never be King.

0:52:40 > 0:52:44But he'll be happier than the man who is.

0:52:44 > 0:52:47You didn't really think I'd take something so precious into battle?

0:52:47 > 0:52:48I know.

0:52:50 > 0:52:51You kept him safe.

0:52:53 > 0:52:56Delivered him to me as you promised you would.

0:52:57 > 0:52:59Take this.

0:52:59 > 0:53:01Make a new life together,

0:53:01 > 0:53:03a long way from France.

0:53:05 > 0:53:08Philippe wouldn't want you to be alone for ever, Agnes.

0:53:10 > 0:53:11I have my son.

0:53:17 > 0:53:19I would ask you to come with us...

0:53:23 > 0:53:24..but you already have a family.

0:53:28 > 0:53:29Thank you.

0:53:42 > 0:53:44And I think you're losing your touch.

0:53:46 > 0:53:48D'ARTAGNAN CHUCKLES

0:54:05 > 0:54:07- MAN:- Satan is real

0:54:07 > 0:54:09and his female familiars are everywhere.

0:54:09 > 0:54:11WOMAN: Menfolk will tell you that an education

0:54:11 > 0:54:12is a danger to your

0:54:12 > 0:54:14fragile mind.

0:54:14 > 0:54:15- ATHOS:- Aramis!

0:54:15 > 0:54:17This amounts to an attack on the authority of Church and State.

0:54:17 > 0:54:20Highest office within the Catholic Church is within your grasp.

0:54:20 > 0:54:23- Open his mouth. - You open his mouth.

0:54:23 > 0:54:25You don't need to kill her. Please...

0:54:25 > 0:54:27If you hurt her, I'll know.

0:54:27 > 0:54:30This is the way we all must end. Our foolish hearts stopped.
