the destiny of a nation
54
00:03:16,823 --> 00:03:18,825
was changed by a birthmark.
55
00:03:19,075 --> 00:03:20,451
A royal birthmark,

00:03:20,535 --> 00:03:24,997
on the royal posterior
of a royal infant child.
57
00:03:25,915 --> 00:03:29,085
Here, returning to his castle,
is King Roderick.
58
00:03:29,168 --> 00:03:32,004
Roderick the Tyrant who,
some months before,
59
00:03:32,088 --> 00:03:35,925
seized the throne by a massacre
of the entire royal family.
60
00:03:36,551 --> 00:03:39,345
But uneasy lies Roderick's crown.
61
00:03:39,470 --> 00:03:41,556
For rumor hath it that an infant,
62
00:03:41,639 --> 00:03:44,559
the rightful heir to the throne,
had survived the massacre,
63
00:03:45,268 --> 00:03:49,063
and even now, was being cared
for by a group in the forest.

00:03:49,147 --> 00:03:53,860

Could you have been so incompetent,
77
00:04:36,903 --> 00:04:39,864
bungled so horribly, as to have
permitted that child to live?

00:04:40,031 --> 00:04:41,199
Sire, there is no child.
79

Well, these are my friends, sir. They
used to work with me at the carnival.
223

They're the finest troupe of acrobats
and tumblers in all of England.

But why did you bring them here?

Well, they too, would be
part of our group, sir.
226

about the tyranny

00:11:12,965 --> 00:11:15,085
I don't mean to be disparaging
to your little friends,
233
00:11:15,134 --> 00:11:16,194
but weapons are limited, and...
234
00:11:16,218 --> 00:11:18,387
Oh, I didn't intend
for them to fight, sir.
235
00:11:18,470 --> 00:11:19,847
I merely thought that they would
236
00:11:19,972 --> 00:11:21,932
take over my chores
of entertaining the men.
237
00:11:22,016 --> 00:11:25,227
Then perhaps, I'd be free
to bear arms myself, sir,
238

and come to grips with the enemy
face to face,

We'll do anything for Hawkins, sir.

were done by a woman?

You were excellent, Hawkins.

00:17:00,229 --> 00:17:01,647
You too, Captain.
359
00:17:01,730 --> 00:17:04,608
We played our parts
extremely well, I thought.

00:17:04,691 --> 00:17:07,277

a lot more time together.

Through the rainy night

We will tiptoe home

00:20:51,251 --> 00:20:52,794
Very.

if you raised your arm.

I'd like to say.

418
00:21:41,843 --> 00:21:44,054
I find it hard to believe that
419
00:21:44,137 --> 00:21:46,973
the Captain could ever be fond
of a man
420
00:21:47,766 --> 00:21:49,768
who isn't a fighter.
421
00:21:53,897 --> 00:21:59,694
Sometimes, tenderness and kindness
can also make a man.

00:21:59,778 --> 00:22:02,030
A very rare man.

00:22:05,075 --> 00:22:06,993
Could the Captain ever...
424
00:22:09,287 --> 00:22:12,249
Could the Captain
ever entertain thoughts
425

of marriage with such a man?
426
00:22:18,088 --> 00:22:20,006
Yes, Hawkins.
427
00:22:21,049 --> 00:22:23,134
I think she could.
428
00:22:24,177 --> 00:22:25,929
And would.
429
00:22:27,681 --> 00:22:29,975
If things were different.
430
00:22:31,142 --> 00:22:32,978

and our fight for freedom won.
433
00:22:41,695 --> 00:22:45,991
Why does such a little girl
have to do such a big job?
434
00:22:46,783 --> 00:22:49,035
It's the way I was brought up.
435
00:22:49,369 --> 00:22:51,538
My father's influence.
436
00:22:51,621 --> 00:22:56,001
You see, my father made me
everything I am.

He does beautiful work.
438
00:22:59,629 --> 00:23:01,548

love freedom,
440
00:23:04,426 --> 00:23:06,595
hate injustice.
441
00:23:07,345 --> 00:23:12,058
The use of weapons and how to fight.
442
00:23:13,101 --> 00:23:14,686
In fact,
443
00:23:15,145 --> 00:23:17,856
I think he... He really wanted me to
444
00:23:18,565 --> 00:23:20,483
be a boy.
445
00:23:26,448 --> 00:23:29,576
Too bad. You'd have
made a wonderful girl.
446
00:23:31,328 --> 00:23:34,664
No. We daren't think of ourselves
until our fight is won.
447
00:23:34,789 --> 00:23:36,666
Yes, but that could
take 20 years or more.
448
00:23:36,750 --> 00:23:37,959
Or 20 hours.
449
00:23:38,043 --> 00:23:40,337
If only we could put our plan
into operation.
450
00:23:40,420 --> 00:23:41,630
Plan? Do we have a plan?
451
00:23:41,713 --> 00:23:46,176
A handful of men could overthrow
the castle in a matter of hours.
452
00:23:46,259 --> 00:23:49,596
You see, there's a secret passage
that starts in the forest
453
00:23:49,679 --> 00:23:51,640
and tunnels underneath
the walls of the castle.
454
00:23:51,765 --> 00:23:53,099
A secret passage.
455
00:23:53,224 --> 00:23:54,726
But it's locked at both ends,
456
00:23:54,809 --> 00:23:56,203
and the key
is in the King's possession.
457
00:23:56,227 --> 00:23:57,938
In the King's possession. Mmm.
458
00:23:58,021 --> 00:24:01,066
If only we could have someone
inside the castle.
459
00:24:01,149 --> 00:24:04,361
An intimate of the King
with access to his chambers.
460
00:24:04,444 --> 00:24:06,446
Mmm-hmm. With access to his chambers.
461

A thousand apologies
for this intrusion,
466
00:24:18,750 --> 00:24:22,128
but may I beg shelter and warmth
from this miserable storm?
467
00:24:22,212 --> 00:24:23,421
Who are you?
468
00:24:23,588 --> 00:24:27,217
A stranger in this land,
young woman, but not for long.
469
00:24:27,300 --> 00:24:30,720
I'm Giacomo of the continent,
the King's new jester.
470
00:24:31,554 --> 00:24:33,765
- The court jester.
- Giacomo?
471
00:24:33,848 --> 00:24:38,728
Giacomo the Incomparable.
King of jesters and jester of kings.
472
00:24:39,062 --> 00:24:40,188
Well, where are you from?
473
00:24:40,271 --> 00:24:42,607
Most recently, the Italian court.
474
00:24:42,691 --> 00:24:44,651
But I've entertained
in all the courts of Europe
475
00:24:44,734 --> 00:24:47,028
and speak a ready wit
in their every tongue.
476
00:24:48,196 --> 00:24:52,784
Hawkins, we are, indeed, honored that
our humble hut should shelter one who,
477
00:24:52,867 --> 00:24:55,245
tomorrow, will be
an intimate of the King.
478
00:24:55,328 --> 00:24:57,205
With access to his chambers.
479
00:24:57,831 --> 00:24:59,207
But how will they know you?
480
00:24:59,290 --> 00:25:02,752
Are you sure that no one at the castle
has ever seen your face?
481
00:25:02,836 --> 00:25:06,339
Not yet, but I assure you,
ere another sun has set,
482
00:25:06,423 --> 00:25:10,135
the entire court of England
will succumb to the charm, wit,
483
00:25:10,218 --> 00:25:13,179
and song of the Incomparable Giacomo,

00:25:13,263 --> 00:25:15,306

And jester to the King.
486
00:25:19,436 --> 00:25:22,939
I'll take the child to the abbey.
You must go to the castle at once.
487
00:25:23,023 --> 00:25:24,524
Quickly, into his clothes.
488
00:25:24,607 --> 00:25:27,193
- What are we gonna do about him?
- I'll notify the Fox.
489
00:25:27,277 --> 00:25:28,778
He'll be taken care of.
490
00:25:28,862 --> 00:25:31,156
Now listen. Listen carefully.
491
00:25:31,239 --> 00:25:34,367
Once inside the castle,
you must get to the King's chamber
492
00:25:34,451 --> 00:25:36,411
and find the key
to the secret passage.
493
00:25:36,494 --> 00:25:38,997
- Key to the passage.
- Then you must give it to the one man
494
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:40,707
inside the castle
who's our confederate.
495
00:25:40,790 --> 00:25:41,833
Confederate.
496
00:25:41,916 --> 00:25:44,210
You mean we already have
somebody inside the castle,
497
00:25:44,294 --> 00:25:46,504
- one of our own?
- You will contact him by whistling
498
00:25:46,588 --> 00:25:47,672
our secret call.
499
00:25:47,756 --> 00:25:48,965
(WHISTLES CALL)
500
00:25:49,049 --> 00:25:51,051
Whistle it, hum it, sing it.
501
00:25:51,134 --> 00:25:52,552
But I don't understand.
502
00:25:52,635 --> 00:25:54,721
If we already have somebody
inside the castle,
503
00:25:54,804 --> 00:25:57,557
- why doesn't he get the key?
- You'll understand when you see him.
504
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,060
Now, he'll hear that
and identify himself.
505
00:26:00,143 --> 00:26:02,437
- Can't you tell me his name?
- Should they discover you,
506
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,564
they might force you
to reveal his identity.
507
00:26:04,647 --> 00:26:06,066
I'd like to ask you one question.
508
00:26:06,149 --> 00:26:08,318
After months of pleading
for just this kind of action,
509
00:26:08,401 --> 00:26:09,736
what makes you think anybody,
510
00:26:09,819 --> 00:26:12,697
anybody could force me to reveal
the identity of my confederate?
511
00:26:12,781 --> 00:26:15,075
Because they'd put you on the rack,
crack your every bone,
512
00:26:15,158 --> 00:26:17,660
scald you with hot oil,
and remove the nails off your fingers
513
00:26:17,744 --> 00:26:19,162
with flaming-hot pincers.
514
00:26:19,746 --> 00:26:21,790
I'd like to withdraw the question.
515
00:26:21,873 --> 00:26:23,083
Hawkins,
516
00:26:23,166 --> 00:26:25,168
the future of England depends on this.
517
00:26:25,251 --> 00:26:26,294
You cannot fail.
518
00:26:26,377 --> 00:26:29,214
- I will not.
- Oh, heaven help you.
519
00:26:31,591 --> 00:26:35,678
Now, remember, from this moment on,
you're no longer Hubert Hawkins,
520
00:26:35,762 --> 00:26:37,222
the carnival entertainer.
521
00:26:37,305 --> 00:26:39,265
You're the Incomparable Giacomo,
522
00:26:39,349 --> 00:26:42,644
King of jesters
and jester to the King.
523
00:26:42,727 --> 00:26:44,896
Jester to the King.
524
00:26:45,146 --> 00:26:47,107
Jester to the King.
525
00:26:47,774 --> 00:26:48,983
To the King?
526
00:26:49,109 --> 00:26:52,362
The child escapes.
You hear that, Ravenhurst?
527
00:26:52,445 --> 00:26:54,239
The child escapes.
528
00:26:54,322 --> 00:26:56,908
Gwendolyn, dear,
do stop picking that thing.
529
00:26:56,991 --> 00:26:58,618
The revolt spreads.
530
00:26:58,701 --> 00:27:01,287
Brockhurst here
says alliance with Griswold.
531
00:27:01,371 --> 00:27:04,082
Finsdale says alliance.
Pertwee says alliance.

so strongly for alliance,
536
00:27:11,172 --> 00:27:13,550
then, by all means,
let us have such alliance.
537
00:27:13,633 --> 00:27:16,386
A marriage between Sir Griswold
and the Princess Gwendolyn.
538
00:27:16,469 --> 00:27:17,637
You're quite right.
539
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,056
Never. Never marriage with Griswold.

542
00:27:23,601 --> 00:27:25,270
And it's not for nothing he's called
543
00:27:25,353 --> 00:27:27,605
the "Grim and Grisly
Gruesome Griswold."

- Go to your chambers.

the fairest wenches in the land.

That's what this court needs.

and the good Giacomo will provide it.

and wittiest entertainer in Europe.

to a castle up north.
562

563
00:28:08,605 --> 00:28:11,816
My gentle lords,
you make me very happy.
564

They have won.
565
00:28:17,155 --> 00:28:18,865
For the moment, yes,
566
00:28:18,948 --> 00:28:20,950
but the King is guided
by the last voice he hears,
567
00:28:21,034 --> 00:28:22,619
and that voice shall be mine.
568
00:28:22,702 --> 00:28:24,162
Giacomo will see to that.
569
00:28:24,245 --> 00:28:26,164
Giacomo? A mere jester?
570
00:28:26,247 --> 00:28:30,710
With one special talent, for which
my agent has bargained dearly.
571
00:28:30,793 --> 00:28:33,046
In addition to his brilliance
as an entertainer,
572
00:28:33,129 --> 00:28:36,507
the jester Giacomo also happens
to be the world's most skillful,
573
00:28:36,591 --> 00:28:40,929

of the art of assassination.

the Incomparable Giacomo.
576
00:28:50,146 --> 00:28:52,649
And heads towards the castle,
while the Maid Jean,
577
00:28:52,732 --> 00:28:55,526
with the infant King
still hidden in the wine cask,
578
00:28:55,610 --> 00:28:59,322
journeys towards the abbey,
and safety for the child.
579
00:29:01,032 --> 00:29:03,326
Their plan seemed simple enough,
580
00:29:03,409 --> 00:29:06,829
but the simplest plans
so often go amiss.
581
00:29:06,913 --> 00:29:10,083
For at the very moment
Hawkins was delayed on the road,
582
00:29:10,166 --> 00:29:12,502
the Maid Jean was to run afoul
of the King's men,
583
00:29:12,585 --> 00:29:17,382
who were scouring the countryside
for the fairest wenches in the land.
584
00:29:21,970 --> 00:29:25,139
And so Jean and the precious wine cart
585
00:29:25,223 --> 00:29:27,308
were taken and sent to the castle
586
00:29:27,392 --> 00:29:31,187

repairing his wheel.

00:36:13,589 --> 00:36:15,716
Hostler, about your business.
707
00:36:16,550 --> 00:36:18,594
What is the first step?
708
00:36:18,761 --> 00:36:20,429
Get me to the King's chambers.
709
00:36:20,888 --> 00:36:22,181
- King's chambers?
- Yes.
710
00:36:22,264 --> 00:36:23,516
Very well, if you say so.
711
00:36:23,724 --> 00:36:25,494
That may be the key to the whole plan.
Get it?
712
00:36:25,518 --> 00:36:26,519
- Got it.
- Good.
713
00:36:27,019 --> 00:36:28,979
Yes, yes.
I'll see Griswold's emissaries.
714
00:36:29,063 --> 00:36:30,374
But for the moment,
there are other matters.
715
00:36:30,398 --> 00:36:33,401
I understand the wenches
have arrived. Where are they?
716
00:36:33,484 --> 00:36:35,611
- What have we here?
- Uh, Sire, may I present
717
00:36:35,695 --> 00:36:36,737
the Incomparable Giacomo?
718
00:36:36,821 --> 00:36:39,365
Uh, King of jesters
and jester of kings.
719
00:36:39,448 --> 00:36:42,410
Oh, yes. From Italy.
I haven't been there for years.
720
00:36:42,493 --> 00:36:44,096
Tell me. How go things
at the Italian court?
721
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,706
- Very well indeed, Sire.
- Splendid, splendid.
722
00:36:46,789 --> 00:36:48,874
What about all those
stories we've heard?
723
00:36:48,958 --> 00:36:50,835
Wasn't it awful about
the Duchess of Erba?
724
00:36:50,918 --> 00:36:53,045
Oh, just... Just awful, Sire.
725
00:36:53,129 --> 00:36:55,005
I ask you, how could
a thing like that happen?
726
00:36:55,089 --> 00:36:57,216
Well, Sire,
you know the Italian court.
727
00:36:57,299 --> 00:36:59,301
What better place to court Italians?
728
00:36:59,385 --> 00:37:02,221
Italian court. Court Italians.
729
00:37:02,304 --> 00:37:03,389
(LAUGHS)
730
00:37:03,472 --> 00:37:05,599
Oh, Ravenhurst, the fellow has wit.
731
00:37:05,683 --> 00:37:08,436
I must say, I was shocked
to hear about the Duchess.
732
00:37:08,519 --> 00:37:09,729
What did the Duke do?
733
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,941
- Pardon?
- The Duke. What did the Duke do?
734
00:37:14,024 --> 00:37:16,819
- Uh, the Duke do?
- Yes. And what about the doge?
735
00:37:16,944 --> 00:37:20,364
- Oh, the doge.
- Well, what did the doge do?
736
00:37:20,740 --> 00:37:22,450
- The doge do?
- Yes, the doge do.
737
00:37:22,783 --> 00:37:25,161
Well, uh, the doge did
what a doge does...
738
00:37:25,244 --> 00:37:27,788
When the doge does his duty
to a Duke, that is.
739
00:37:27,872 --> 00:37:30,040
- What? What's that?
- Oh, it's very simple, Sire.
740
00:37:30,124 --> 00:37:32,042
When the doge did his duty
and the Duke didn't,
741
00:37:32,126 --> 00:37:34,606
that's when the Duchess did the dirt
to the Duke with the doge.
742
00:37:34,712 --> 00:37:36,632
- Who did what to what?
- Oh, they all did, Sire.
743
00:37:36,714 --> 00:37:37,923
There they were in the dark.
744
00:37:38,048 --> 00:37:39,609
The Duke with his dagger,
doge with his dart,
745
00:37:39,633 --> 00:37:40,673
the Duchess with her dirk.
746
00:37:40,718 --> 00:37:42,219
- Duchess with her dirk?
- Yes.
747
00:37:42,303 --> 00:37:44,722
The Duchess dug at the Duke
when the Duke dove at the doge.
748
00:37:44,847 --> 00:37:47,308
The Duke ducked, the doge
dodged, and the Duchess didn't.
749
00:37:47,391 --> 00:37:49,286
So, the Duke got the Duchess,
Duchess got the doge,
750
00:37:49,310 --> 00:37:50,436
and the doge got the Duke.
751
00:37:51,270 --> 00:37:54,023
Curious. I... I... I...
752
00:37:54,648 --> 00:37:57,443
What... All I heard was that
the Duchess had a siege of rheumatism.
753
00:37:57,526 --> 00:37:59,195
- She's 83.
- Oh, come next summer, Sire.
754
00:37:59,278 --> 00:38:00,780
- So is the Duke?
- So is the Duke.
755
00:38:00,863 --> 00:38:03,032
Remarkable, those Italians.
756
00:38:03,657 --> 00:38:06,243
(CHUCKLING)
757
00:38:07,244 --> 00:38:08,996
Made the whole thing up, didn't you?
758
00:38:10,372 --> 00:38:11,707
Very witty, very clever.
759
00:38:11,791 --> 00:38:15,628
Just what this court needs,
laughter, gaiety, song, wenches.
760
00:38:15,711 --> 00:38:17,755
Oh, yes, wenches.
761
00:38:17,838 --> 00:38:20,049
I'm just on my way
to inspect the lot of them.
762
00:38:20,132 --> 00:38:22,009
Who knows? I may find some luscious...
763
00:38:22,092 --> 00:38:23,260
Uh, Sire,
764
00:38:23,594 --> 00:38:26,263
if I may suggest, it ill befits
the propriety of your high office
765
00:38:26,347 --> 00:38:27,867
to be seen with these unkempt wenches.
766
00:38:27,932 --> 00:38:30,518
- What?
- It is said the Incomparable Giacomo
767
00:38:30,601 --> 00:38:32,728
has a discerning eye for beauty.
768
00:38:32,812 --> 00:38:36,524
Why not let him select a suitable
companion for Your Majesty?
769
00:38:36,607 --> 00:38:38,359
Excellent, excellent.
770
00:38:38,859 --> 00:38:40,528
I trust the jester's reputation
771
00:38:40,653 --> 00:38:43,447
is based upon many years
of accomplishment?
772
00:38:44,490 --> 00:38:47,117
Why do you think they
call me "Incomparable," Sire? Get it?
773
00:38:47,201 --> 00:38:48,953
- Got it.
- Good.
774
00:38:50,496 --> 00:38:51,914
Bring her to my chambers.
775
00:38:51,997 --> 00:38:54,124
- Within the hour?
- Within the hour.
776
00:38:55,376 --> 00:38:57,211
Finish with the King,
and come to my chambers.
777
00:38:57,294 --> 00:38:58,712
Within the hour.
778
00:38:59,129 --> 00:39:01,882
- About that song, sir...
- Some other time, my good man.
779
00:39:01,966 --> 00:39:03,801
Fergus, get on with your work.
780
00:39:03,884 --> 00:39:05,970
Good Captain will escort you
to your quarters.
781
00:39:06,053 --> 00:39:07,137
Very well.
782
00:39:07,555 --> 00:39:11,392
- Are you sure we haven't met before?
- Quite sure.
783
00:39:12,101 --> 00:39:13,686
Within the hour.
784
00:39:16,981 --> 00:39:19,942
Your Giacomo seems more
the fool than the assassin.
785
00:39:20,025 --> 00:39:23,070
Or perchance,
a brilliant combination of both.
786
00:39:23,153 --> 00:39:24,446
We shall see.
787
00:39:25,906 --> 00:39:27,366
(SINGING) La, da, da, dee, dee, dum
788
00:39:27,449 --> 00:39:30,744
I'm Giacomo, Giacomo
789
00:39:30,828 --> 00:39:33,289
My fame before me rings
790
00:39:33,372 --> 00:39:38,711
King of jesters and jester of kings
791
00:39:38,878 --> 00:39:41,797
- What are you doing here?
- I'm Fergus, the hostler.
792
00:39:41,881 --> 00:39:44,258
- Who-gus the what-sler?
- Fergus, the hostler.
793
00:39:44,341 --> 00:39:46,594
It is I, not Ravenhurst,
who is your friend.
794
00:39:46,677 --> 00:39:49,471
Look, my good man, you pick
your friends, and I shall pick mine.
795
00:39:49,555 --> 00:39:51,658
At the moment, I have a very important
mission with the King.
796
00:39:51,682 --> 00:39:53,767
After all,
I'm the Incomparable Giacomo,
797
00:39:53,851 --> 00:39:55,769
King of jesters and jester of kings.
798
00:39:55,853 --> 00:39:57,688
I've entertained
in all the courts of Europe
799
00:39:57,771 --> 00:40:00,149
and speak a ready wit
in their every tongue.
800
00:40:00,232 --> 00:40:02,484
- Who are you?
- I am Griselda.
801
00:40:02,568 --> 00:40:04,111
- Gri-who-Ida?
- Griselda.
802
00:40:04,194 --> 00:40:06,113
I bring you a message
from the princess.
803
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,365
- The royal princess?
- She finds you most attractive
804
00:40:08,449 --> 00:40:10,159
- and would like to meet you.
- Me?
805
00:40:10,242 --> 00:40:12,244
Yes. She finds you passing fair,
passing graceful.
806
00:40:12,328 --> 00:40:15,956
Well, tell her thank you very much,
but I'm just passing through.
807
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,667
One does not ordinarily
refuse a princess.
808
00:40:18,751 --> 00:40:20,502
One doesn't ordinarily, but you see...
809
00:40:20,586 --> 00:40:23,422
Is it possible there's someone
else of whom you are fond?
810
00:40:23,547 --> 00:40:27,051
- Yes, as a matter of fact, there is.
- Giacomo, would you look in my eye?
811
00:40:27,718 --> 00:40:29,553
- Eye?
- Yes, it's been troubling me,
812
00:40:29,637 --> 00:40:32,640
and I thought that the great Giacomo
would have a knowledge of science.
813
00:40:32,765 --> 00:40:34,808
Uh, science. Well, yes,
as a matter of fact,
814
00:40:34,892 --> 00:40:36,769
I've a great deal
of scientific knowledge.
815
00:40:36,852 --> 00:40:38,687
- We have... Which eye?
- Both.
816
00:40:39,647 --> 00:40:40,898
Look at them both.
817
00:40:41,649 --> 00:40:45,903
Closer, closer. Deeper, deeper.
818
00:40:46,111 --> 00:40:48,238
Deeper, deeper.
819
00:40:48,822 --> 00:40:51,533
Tails of lizards, ears of swine,
820
00:40:51,659 --> 00:40:53,661
chicken gizzards soaked in brine,
821
00:40:53,744 --> 00:40:55,412
now thine eyes and mine entwine,
822
00:40:55,496 --> 00:40:57,748
thy will is broken, thou art mine.
823
00:40:59,249 --> 00:41:01,961
Repeat after me,
"I am craven, and thou art my master."
824
00:41:02,044 --> 00:41:03,587
I am craven, and thou art my master.
825
00:41:03,671 --> 00:41:05,756
- Stand there, fool.
- Stand there, fool.
826
00:41:05,839 --> 00:41:06,882
- Silence.
- Silence.
827
00:41:06,966 --> 00:41:09,009
You are in my power
and will obey my every command.
828
00:41:09,093 --> 00:41:10,469
- Every command.
- And remember,
829
00:41:10,552 --> 00:41:12,513
any time I choose,
a mere snap of the fingers
830
00:41:12,596 --> 00:41:14,473
can bring you out
of the spell like this...
831
00:41:14,556 --> 00:41:16,225
- Ooh.
- And back like that.
832
00:41:16,392 --> 00:41:18,394
- Do you understand, fool?
- Yes, master.
833
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:20,729
You can snap me in and snap me out.
834
00:41:20,896 --> 00:41:22,606
Now, listen closely.
835
00:41:24,358 --> 00:41:27,277
First and foremost, you must convince
the girl that this is a miracle,
836
00:41:27,361 --> 00:41:28,862
that you've been sent by the gods.
837
00:41:28,946 --> 00:41:31,490
To do that, you must go
to her room and make love.
838
00:41:31,573 --> 00:41:33,325
Go and make love to the princess.
839
00:41:33,409 --> 00:41:35,035
- The princess.
- At once.
840
00:41:35,119 --> 00:41:36,495
Wait, not like that.
841
00:41:36,578 --> 00:41:39,665
You are a figure of romance,
of spirit and action,
842
00:41:39,748 --> 00:41:41,959
but at the same time,
humble and tender.
843
00:41:42,042 --> 00:41:45,004
You are a man of iron
with the soul of a poet.
844
00:41:45,087 --> 00:41:46,922
You are adventurous, gay,
845
00:41:47,006 --> 00:41:49,133
but with a lover's
brooding melancholy.
846
00:41:49,216 --> 00:41:51,719
- And above all, you must show passion.
- Hmm?
847
00:41:51,802 --> 00:41:54,096
Show passion. Not me, you fool.
848
00:41:54,179 --> 00:41:56,056
Now go. Make love.
849
00:41:57,474 --> 00:42:00,019
Climb the vine to the tower
where your love awaits you.
850
00:42:00,102 --> 00:42:04,023
But above all, remember,
you must be cavalier, dashing.
851
00:42:04,106 --> 00:42:06,775
Fear not, master.
Once I'm up the thorny vine,
852
00:42:06,859 --> 00:42:08,777
the regal maiden shall be mine.
853
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:11,864
Fear not, master.
854
00:42:44,980 --> 00:42:46,565
Hawkins.
855
00:42:48,734 --> 00:42:49,985
You got here.
856
00:42:50,152 --> 00:42:53,197
Well, of course I got here,
my silly little goose.
857
00:42:53,363 --> 00:42:55,157
Thank heaven.
858
00:42:55,324 --> 00:42:57,451
(TUTS) You'll have to wait your turn
like the others.
859
00:42:57,618 --> 00:43:00,579
Good, good. You're doing it well.
Have you heard the change of plan?
860
00:43:00,746 --> 00:43:02,498
- Here. Take this.
- I just told you, dear,
861
00:43:02,664 --> 00:43:05,167
- you'll just have to wait your turn.
- Now, don't overdo it.
862
00:43:05,334 --> 00:43:10,047
- Fergus will bring you the infant.
- Well, well, Giacomo.
863
00:43:10,422 --> 00:43:12,257
Successful so soon.
864
00:43:12,424 --> 00:43:15,094
Truly as dainty a dish
as ever was set before a king.
865
00:43:15,219 --> 00:43:17,387
About your business.
I would have a word with the maid.
866
00:43:17,513 --> 00:43:18,673
- Your Majesty. Oops.
- (THUD)
867
00:43:23,227 --> 00:43:25,062
What is your name, child?
868
00:43:25,145 --> 00:43:27,272
- Jean, Sire.
- Jean.
869
00:43:27,773 --> 00:43:30,692
A lovely name for a lovely face.
870
00:43:30,776 --> 00:43:32,569
See that she's jeweled and gowned.
871
00:43:32,653 --> 00:43:34,863
She shall sit next to me
at the banquet tonight.
872
00:43:59,930 --> 00:44:02,724
You. You've come.
873
00:44:05,144 --> 00:44:07,771
At your service, milady.
874
00:44:08,188 --> 00:44:12,860
So this is Giacomo,
King of jesters and jester of kings.
875
00:44:12,943 --> 00:44:14,486
Not today, milady.
876
00:44:14,570 --> 00:44:17,781
Today, I am Giacomo,
a lover of beauty. Mmm.
877
00:44:17,865 --> 00:44:20,159
And a beauty of a lover.
878
00:44:20,242 --> 00:44:22,786
Can this be true,
or is it merely a dream?
879
00:44:22,870 --> 00:44:24,955
Dream? Is this a dream?
880
00:44:25,038 --> 00:44:26,665
Or this? Or this?
881
00:44:26,748 --> 00:44:29,334
- Or this? Or this?
- Oh, no, no, no, no.
882
00:44:29,418 --> 00:44:31,461
We are strangers, hardly met.
883
00:44:31,545 --> 00:44:33,881
What manner of man are you, Giacomo?
884
00:44:33,964 --> 00:44:36,675
What manner of man is Giacomo? Ha, ha!
885
00:44:36,758 --> 00:44:38,844
I shall tell you
what manner of man is he.
886
00:44:38,927 --> 00:44:41,430
He lives for a sigh.
He dies for a kiss.
887
00:44:41,513 --> 00:44:43,223
He lusts for a laugh. Ha!
888
00:44:43,432 --> 00:44:45,434
He never walks when he can leap.
889
00:44:45,851 --> 00:44:48,312
(BED CREAKING)
890
00:44:48,645 --> 00:44:51,106
He never flees when he can fight.
891
00:44:51,190 --> 00:44:52,357
Ooh.
892
00:44:52,608 --> 00:44:57,070
He swoons at the beauty of a rose,
and I offer myself to you.
893
00:44:57,196 --> 00:45:01,158
All of me, my heart, my lips,
my legs, my calves.
894
00:45:01,241 --> 00:45:03,911
Do what you will. My love endures.
895
00:45:06,663 --> 00:45:08,832
Beat me. Kick me.
896
00:45:10,167 --> 00:45:14,004
- I am yours.
- Oh, Giacomo, you are so ardent.
897
00:45:14,254 --> 00:45:17,549
With your permission, milady,
I'd like to go around again.
898
00:45:17,633 --> 00:45:20,594
Oh, no, Giacomo. We must be discreet.
899
00:45:20,677 --> 00:45:24,681
Ha! Discretion is for fools
and simpletons.
900
00:45:26,850 --> 00:45:28,185
This cannot be.
901
00:45:28,268 --> 00:45:32,189
Miracles are things of fancy,
and lovers are not sent by the gods.
902
00:45:32,439 --> 00:45:34,775
Speak not too lightly, my love.
903
00:45:34,858 --> 00:45:37,694
Who are we to say nay to miracles?
904
00:45:37,778 --> 00:45:41,114
But one doesn't find love
in one moment, one kiss.
905
00:45:41,198 --> 00:45:42,908
That key, where did you find it?
906
00:45:42,991 --> 00:45:44,326
- Key?
- It is a miracle.
907
00:45:44,409 --> 00:45:47,537
The gods who sent you have also
provided a means to our escape.
908
00:45:47,621 --> 00:45:49,414
This is the key
to the secret passageway.
909
00:45:49,498 --> 00:45:51,959
- Grand. We leave at midnight. Get it?
- Got it.
910
00:45:52,042 --> 00:45:54,086
Good. Very good.
911
00:45:54,211 --> 00:45:55,420
Oh, no, my precious.
912
00:45:55,504 --> 00:45:58,715
I'll keep it next to my heart.
A sweet symbol of your love.
913
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,343
And take this, a sweet symbol of mine.
914
00:46:01,426 --> 00:46:03,345
I'll wear it, always,
next to my heart.

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

KING: Gwendolyn?
HAWKINS: Hmm?
917
00:46:06,306 --> 00:46:08,350
Are you there?
I would have words with you.
918
00:46:08,433 --> 00:46:11,270
- My father. You must hide.
- Hide?
919
00:46:11,353 --> 00:46:12,813
Giacomo hides for no man.
920
00:46:12,896 --> 00:46:15,148
But you must. He'd kill any man
found in my chambers.
921
00:46:15,232 --> 00:46:18,360
Ah, be he king or peasant,
my ready blade shall find its mark.
922
00:46:18,485 --> 00:46:21,196
I'll... I'll... I live for a sigh.
923
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,699
I die for a kiss. I lust for a laugh.
Ha, ha!
924
00:46:23,782 --> 00:46:24,950
- Quickly...
- What?
925
00:46:25,033 --> 00:46:26,261
...or our lives
aren't worth that. (SNAPS FINGERS)
926
00:46:26,285 --> 00:46:27,845
- What? Uh, uh...
- Don't be frightened.
927
00:46:32,666 --> 00:46:35,919
Are you alone, my dear?
I thought I heard voices.
928
00:46:36,003 --> 00:46:38,797
- Yes, I'm quite alone, Father.
- Listen, my child.
929
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,133
- The King.
- I've just met Griswold's emissary,
930
00:46:41,216 --> 00:46:43,969
- and the marriage is approved.
- You know very well, Father,
931
00:46:44,052 --> 00:46:46,596
that when I marry,
I marry only for love.
932
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:49,516
(CHUCKLES) I knew you'd say that.
Now, Gwendolyn, do be reasonable.
933
00:46:49,599 --> 00:46:51,327
Don't you realize
that without this alliance,
934
00:46:51,351 --> 00:46:55,272
our prestige, our power, our position
could go like that? (SNAPS FINGERS)
935
00:46:55,355 --> 00:46:58,358
- Well, then, let it go like that.
- I wish you to marry Griswold.
936
00:46:58,442 --> 00:47:00,569
And suppose I do not
wish to marry Griswold?
937
00:47:00,652 --> 00:47:03,864
- I don't give a fig for your wishes.
- And I don't give a fig for yours.
938
00:47:03,989 --> 00:47:05,949
No one snaps at the king.
Don't snap at me.
939
00:47:06,033 --> 00:47:08,410
- I'll snap if I choose.
- Don't you dare snap at me.
940
00:47:08,493 --> 00:47:10,454
- I will snap. (SNAPS)
- You won't.
941
00:47:10,537 --> 00:47:11,913
Understand this, my child.
942
00:47:11,997 --> 00:47:14,207
This castle has walls high and strong,
943
00:47:14,499 --> 00:47:17,252
with massive gates under lock and key.
944
00:47:17,377 --> 00:47:20,088
Whilst you remain within those walls,
and I am the king,
945
00:47:20,380 --> 00:47:22,507
you will obey my commands.
946
00:47:22,799 --> 00:47:24,259
Very well, Father.
947
00:47:24,426 --> 00:47:26,887
Perhaps I have been selfish
and thoughtless.
948
00:47:27,095 --> 00:47:28,972
Oh, my child.
949
00:47:29,765 --> 00:47:33,060
I knew I could depend upon you,
because you are a princess.
950
00:47:33,310 --> 00:47:36,271
A true princess, loyal to the crown.
951
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:39,274
Sympathetic, sensitive, faithful...

- So, you'd run away?

Well, you trick me not.
This key will never leave my person.
956
00:47:49,618 --> 00:47:51,328
You will marry Griswold
upon the morrow.
957

And I promise you, daughter or not,
princess or not,

will snap like a twig. (SNAPS)

Giacomo hides not behind drapes.

- No, no, no. You must go.
- I'll cut him to ribbons.
962
00:48:03,465 --> 00:48:05,384
No, we'll escape tonight
after the banquet.

Very well, my sweet. Until tonight.

If caught,

our necks will snap like twigs.

- Like what?
- Twigs. (SNAPS)

Until tonight, my little sapling.

00:48:35,163 --> 00:48:37,249
If Giacomo says he'll be here
within the hour,
974
00:48:37,332 --> 00:48:41,169
he will be here within the hour.

shows imagination and brilliance.

00:48:48,135 --> 00:48:49,511
Did you expect less?

00:48:49,594 --> 00:48:51,274
Are you now prepared
to fulfill the bargain

arranged by my agent
Sir Bertram of Allenberg?

00:48:53,849 --> 00:48:55,517
- Quite.
- Very well, then.
981
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:57,352
- There are two plans.
- Two plans.
982
00:48:57,436 --> 00:49:00,939
Plan one, the untimely demise
of milords Brockhurst,
983
00:49:01,022 --> 00:49:02,816
- Finsdale and Pertwee.
- Uh-huh.
984
00:49:02,899 --> 00:49:04,109
These three must die tonight.
985
00:49:04,192 --> 00:49:06,736
Three for tonight. Proceed.

The method I leave to you,
but die they must.

- Precisely. Like flies. (SNAPS TWICE)

- Do you have some sort of twitch?
- Twitch?

I twitch only for action.
990
00:49:19,332 --> 00:49:21,418
I live for a sigh. I die for a kiss.

00:49:21,501 --> 00:49:23,980
- I like that very much.
- Thank you. I lust for a laugh. Ha, ha.

- Yes, but...
- I never leap when I can walk.

I never flee when I can fight. Pardon?
994
00:49:28,008 --> 00:49:29,426
But listen carefully.
995
00:49:29,676 --> 00:49:32,137
If plan one fails,
you must execute plan two.

- Are they married?
- Yes.

Now, when I release you
from the spell,

you will fall into a deep sleep

Never mind that.
You must take the child to the jester.

- Immediately. He has the key.

Plan two.
1213
00:59:38,534 --> 00:59:40,411
Get those bodies out of here.
1214
00:59:47,794 --> 00:59:49,504
(WHISTLES SECRET CALL)
1215
00:59:49,962 --> 00:59:52,632
Quick, take him to safety.
1216
00:59:53,174 --> 00:59:54,467
Get those goblets away.
1217
00:59:54,550 --> 00:59:56,094
No, not you, jester. Not you.
1218
00:59:56,177 --> 00:59:58,721
Come here. Come here, boy.
Come here. Sit here by me.
1219

(TRUMPET BLOWS FANFARE)
1220
01:00:02,016 --> 01:00:04,727
Sir Griswold of McElwaine.
1221
01:00:05,311 --> 01:00:06,562
Approach, Sir Griswold.
1222
01:00:07,063 --> 01:00:10,191
Lighten the mood, jester.
A note of welcome for Sir Griswold.
1223
01:00:14,862 --> 01:00:16,072
My liege lord.
1224
01:00:16,405 --> 01:00:20,034
Sir Griswold of McElwaine,
I bid thee welcome.
1225
01:00:20,118 --> 01:00:23,621
(SINGING) Oh, welcome, Sir Griswold,
your beard is full of hair
1226
01:00:23,704 --> 01:00:25,206
But do I say welcome
1227
01:00:25,289 --> 01:00:26,290
Or do I say...
1228
01:00:26,374 --> 01:00:27,375
(BLEATS)
1229
01:00:27,458 --> 01:00:28,793
(LAUGHTER)
1230
01:00:28,876 --> 01:00:31,879
Sire, my emissary did report,
1231
01:00:32,046 --> 01:00:35,174
and I proudly accept your terms.
1232
01:00:35,341 --> 01:00:37,426
Uh, the terms, the terms
1233
01:00:37,510 --> 01:00:39,137
He doth accept the terms
1234
01:00:39,220 --> 01:00:40,847
He looks not smart, but...
1235
01:00:40,930 --> 01:00:43,641
Excellent, excellent.
Members of the court,
1236
01:00:43,724 --> 01:00:47,019
know you that the crown would make
a most felicitous announcement
1237
01:00:47,103 --> 01:00:50,398
concerning the defense
and security of our great kingdom.
1238
01:00:50,481 --> 01:00:54,152
I would have you know that, today,
was an alliance consummated
1239
01:00:54,235 --> 01:00:57,238
between the crown and our honored
and valiant baron,
1240
01:00:57,321 --> 01:00:59,198
Sir Griswold of McElwaine.
1241
01:00:59,282 --> 01:01:01,242
And the terms, the terms...
1242
01:01:01,325 --> 01:01:02,910
We've already had the terms.
1243
01:01:02,994 --> 01:01:04,662
- Oh, yes.
- (LAUGHTER)
1244
01:01:04,745 --> 01:01:07,373
To cement this alliance,
I have decreed a royal marriage,
1245
01:01:07,456 --> 01:01:11,502
between Sir Griswold of McElwaine
and Gwendolyn the Fair.
1246
01:01:11,586 --> 01:01:13,462
Uh, rejoice, rejoice
1247
01:01:13,588 --> 01:01:15,131
Although his brain is brief
1248
01:01:15,214 --> 01:01:18,551
For when the larder's empty,
she'll have her ton of beef
1249
01:01:18,634 --> 01:01:19,677
(LAUGHTER)
1250
01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:21,846
Would you like to try
the other side, Sire?
1251
01:01:21,971 --> 01:01:23,514
Thank you, Sire.
1252
01:01:23,598 --> 01:01:24,950
KING: What say our gallant Griswold?
1253
01:01:24,974 --> 01:01:26,976
Sire, princess fair.
1254
01:01:27,143 --> 01:01:30,188
From this moment on,
this hand, this steel,
1255
01:01:30,271 --> 01:01:33,774
this heart, will exist for naught
but the love of the lady...
1256
01:01:33,858 --> 01:01:35,943
Save your breath, Griswold.
1257
01:01:36,027 --> 01:01:38,446
There will be no alliance
and no marriage.
1258
01:01:38,529 --> 01:01:39,572
KING: What's that?
1259
01:01:39,947 --> 01:01:42,158
I cannot marry Griswold, Father.
1260
01:01:42,241 --> 01:01:43,868
- I love another.
- Another?
1261
01:01:43,951 --> 01:01:46,495
Another, another...
1262
01:01:46,579 --> 01:01:48,915
What is this nonsense?
What do you mean, you love another?
1263
01:01:48,998 --> 01:01:50,541
Simply that, Father.
1264
01:01:50,625 --> 01:01:53,628
A miracle has happened
to fulfill my every dream.
1265
01:01:53,711 --> 01:01:55,379
I have found my love, Father.
1266
01:01:55,463 --> 01:01:56,839
My true love.
1267
01:01:56,923 --> 01:01:58,841
- Who is this man?
- One to whom I have given
1268
01:01:58,925 --> 01:02:00,426
both my heart and my hand.
1269
01:02:00,509 --> 01:02:03,137
He who, even now,
wears my silken handkerchief
1270
01:02:03,221 --> 01:02:04,430
next to his heart.
1271
01:02:04,513 --> 01:02:05,633
- What's that?
- What's that?
1272
01:02:05,681 --> 01:02:07,767
Her heart, her hand
1273
01:02:07,850 --> 01:02:09,518
She holds forjoy or grief
1274
01:02:09,602 --> 01:02:12,563
But he who holds her hand,
holds her heart-kerchief
1275
01:02:12,855 --> 01:02:15,816
Uh, the handkerchief, her handker-heart
1276
01:02:15,900 --> 01:02:17,568
Heart-kerchief... hand...
1277
01:02:17,693 --> 01:02:19,320
KING: Who is this man? His name.
1278
01:02:19,445 --> 01:02:22,406
The man I love is a simple man
but noble of heart.
1279
01:02:22,740 --> 01:02:24,992
- My beloved Giacomo.
- What?
1280
01:02:25,159 --> 01:02:28,496
She's named his name
and now his blood must flow
1281
01:02:28,579 --> 01:02:30,331
Light up the oil, this man must boil
1282
01:02:30,456 --> 01:02:33,292
This man named Giacomo?
1283
01:02:33,376 --> 01:02:34,377
Oh, no.
1284
01:02:34,460 --> 01:02:36,295
Seize this wretch and search him.
1285
01:02:36,379 --> 01:02:37,880
I'm... This is all a mistake, Sire.
1286
01:02:37,964 --> 01:02:39,257
I don't have a heart-kerchief.
1287
01:02:39,340 --> 01:02:41,509
A handker-heart.
I don't have... This...
1288
01:02:41,676 --> 01:02:44,303
A handkerchief. "G."
1289
01:02:44,470 --> 01:02:47,306
- Gwendolyn.
- No, Sire. "G," Giacomo.
1290
01:02:47,390 --> 01:02:50,101
Shield me not, sweet Giacomo,
our love makes me strong.
1291
01:02:50,226 --> 01:02:51,477
KING: Love for a common jester?
1292
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:55,022
- Take the swine out and hang him.
- Harm one hair of that majestic head,
1293
01:02:55,106 --> 01:02:56,941
and I throw myself
from the highest turret.
1294
01:02:57,024 --> 01:02:58,067
Enough of this.
1295
01:02:58,150 --> 01:03:00,778
How much insult must I endure?
Come, men.
1296
01:03:00,861 --> 01:03:03,114
Hold, Sir Griswold.
Your honor will be avenged.
1297
01:03:03,197 --> 01:03:05,700
How? Were that wretch of noble rank,
1298
01:03:05,783 --> 01:03:07,702
I would challenge him
to combat mortal.
1299
01:03:07,785 --> 01:03:09,870
But I would not deign to soil my blade
1300
01:03:09,954 --> 01:03:12,248
with his miserable common blood.
1301
01:03:12,331 --> 01:03:14,709
He's right, you know, Sire?
Rules of chivalry, you know?
1302
01:03:14,792 --> 01:03:17,044
Rules of chivalry be hanged,
and so will you.
1303
01:03:17,128 --> 01:03:18,587
- She'll jump.
- (YELLS)
1304
01:03:18,754 --> 01:03:20,172
- Come, men.
- Hold, Sir Griswold.
1305
01:03:20,256 --> 01:03:22,258
You will stay until the morrow.
It is my command.
1306
01:03:22,425 --> 01:03:25,052
- Till the morrow, Sire.
- You, Gwendolyn, to your chambers.
1307
01:03:25,428 --> 01:03:27,305
Be brave, sweet Giacomo.
1308
01:03:27,388 --> 01:03:28,973
Throw this blackguard in chains.
1309
01:03:29,265 --> 01:03:30,558
Is he not fabulous?
1310
01:03:30,725 --> 01:03:33,728
To go from plan one to plan two
without a moment's pause.
1311
01:03:33,894 --> 01:03:36,605
The man is pure genius.
1312
01:03:42,278 --> 01:03:44,947
Sir Griswold will never tolerate
this insult.
1313
01:03:45,364 --> 01:03:47,700
Milords, to your chambers.
Ponder this problem.
1314
01:03:47,825 --> 01:03:50,411
A solution must be found
ere we meet in council tomorrow.
1315
01:03:50,536 --> 01:03:52,121
Sire.
1316
01:03:54,582 --> 01:03:56,334
Welcome home, Sir Bertram.
1317
01:03:56,417 --> 01:03:58,669
- You saw the jester's performance?
- Mmm-hmm.
1318
01:03:58,753 --> 01:04:00,393
When I sent you to negotiate
with Giacomo,
1319
01:04:00,421 --> 01:04:02,089
I never expected results like this.
1320
01:04:02,173 --> 01:04:03,549
Was he not brilliant?
1321
01:04:03,632 --> 01:04:05,468
Indeed.
1322
01:04:05,634 --> 01:04:07,303
With one slight discrepancy.
1323
01:04:07,470 --> 01:04:08,971
This man is not Giacomo.
1324
01:04:09,722 --> 01:04:11,640
- What?
- I know not this pretender,
1325
01:04:11,724 --> 01:04:13,642
but I assure you,
he is not the Giacomo
1326
01:04:13,726 --> 01:04:15,311
I met and negotiated with in Europe.
1327
01:04:15,394 --> 01:04:18,314
I tell you I've seen this man before,
and somehow, that maid.
1328
01:04:18,397 --> 01:04:19,565
What did I tell you?
1329
01:04:19,648 --> 01:04:21,776
What plan now?
1330
01:04:22,818 --> 01:04:24,737
To my chambers immediately.
1331
01:04:25,654 --> 01:04:27,531
But if he's not Giacomo,
1332
01:04:27,615 --> 01:04:29,784
who can he be, and what does he want?
1333
01:04:29,867 --> 01:04:31,327
Why would he do our every bidding?
1334
01:04:31,452 --> 01:04:32,953
Why work to destroy the alliance?
1335
01:04:33,037 --> 01:04:35,706
Why would he murder
with the cunning of a fox?
1336
01:04:35,873 --> 01:04:37,792
A fox.
1337
01:04:37,875 --> 01:04:40,836
But of course, a fox. A black fox.
1338
01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:42,838
- But you don't think that...
- Why not?
1339
01:04:42,922 --> 01:04:45,508
Who else would oppose Griswold
and want the alliance destroyed,
1340
01:04:45,633 --> 01:04:47,009
but that rabble in the forest?
1341
01:04:47,093 --> 01:04:48,260
The forest...
1342
01:04:48,386 --> 01:04:51,222
That's where I saw him, dressed as
an old man riding into the forest
1343
01:04:51,347 --> 01:04:53,599
with the very wench
who sat beside the King tonight.
1344
01:04:53,682 --> 01:04:55,726
My lords, what a prize.
1345
01:04:55,810 --> 01:04:57,061
The Black Fox himself.
1346
01:04:57,144 --> 01:04:58,497
Expose him. You'll get all the credit.
1347
01:04:58,521 --> 01:04:59,688
Not so fast.
1348
01:05:01,273 --> 01:05:04,235
Not until the Fox pays us
one last service.
1349
01:05:04,485 --> 01:05:06,946
He'll rid us, forever,
of the barbaric Griswold.
1350
01:05:07,029 --> 01:05:08,322
Kill Griswold? But how?
1351
01:05:08,406 --> 01:05:10,366
Whose is the deadliest
blade in England?
1352
01:05:10,449 --> 01:05:12,219
Who is the only man alive
who can best Griswold
1353
01:05:12,243 --> 01:05:13,744
in mortal combat? Only the Black Fox.
1354
01:05:13,828 --> 01:05:16,205
But the Fox is a commoner
and cannot fight in tournament.
1355
01:05:16,288 --> 01:05:17,873
We shall see.
1356
01:05:18,374 --> 01:05:20,084
No, Ravenhurst, I do not understand.
1357
01:05:20,418 --> 01:05:22,837
What do you mean, Griswold, himself,
suggested a solution?
1358
01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:26,006
You, yourself, heard him, Sire.
He said were the jester of noble rank,
1359
01:05:26,090 --> 01:05:27,341
he'd challenge him to combat.
1360
01:05:27,425 --> 01:05:30,136
But the jester cannot fight
in tournament. He's a commoner.
1361
01:05:30,219 --> 01:05:34,140
- Then, Sire, knight the jester.
- Knight the jester?
1362
01:05:34,223 --> 01:05:36,743
Griswold can then challenge him for
the hand of the Princess Gwendolyn,
1363
01:05:36,767 --> 01:05:41,522
and by the rules of chivalry,
she must wed the victor.
1364
01:05:41,605 --> 01:05:43,774
Knight the jester.
1365
01:05:43,858 --> 01:05:47,361
Sir Griswold will challenge him.
He dare not refuse.
1366
01:05:47,445 --> 01:05:49,405
They meet at the tournament tomorrow,
1367
01:05:49,572 --> 01:05:52,491
Sir Griswold's lance
runs the jester through,
1368
01:05:52,658 --> 01:05:54,535
and the marriage
and the alliance proceed.
1369
01:05:54,702 --> 01:05:55,995
Yes, hmm?
1370
01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:58,456
- (LAUGHS) Magnificent.
- Thank you, Sire.
1371
01:05:58,539 --> 01:06:01,584
But Your Majesty,
knighthood is an arduous ritual.
1372
01:06:01,667 --> 01:06:04,003
It would take three years
to knight the jester.
1373
01:06:04,086 --> 01:06:05,546
Three years? Nonsense.
1374
01:06:05,629 --> 01:06:07,548
Ravenhurst, take that nincompoop
1375
01:06:07,631 --> 01:06:10,134
and knight that nincompoop
by noon tomorrow.
1376
01:06:10,217 --> 01:06:11,218
Sire.
1377
01:06:13,888 --> 01:06:16,849
"By order of His Sovereign Majesty,
the jester Giacomo shall enter upon
1378
01:06:16,932 --> 01:06:18,852
"a series of tests of manhood,
skill and courage,
1379
01:06:18,934 --> 01:06:21,395
"requisite to his becoming
a knight of the realm."
1380
01:06:21,479 --> 01:06:22,980
Me, a knight? But why?
1381
01:06:23,063 --> 01:06:25,423
To make you eligible for the hand

Haven't you heard?
We're knighting the poor fool.
1436
01:09:01,180 --> 01:09:03,599
- Knighting the jester?
- Yes. You'd never guess why.
1437
01:09:03,766 --> 01:09:06,578
- So that he can marry the princess.
- Well, that's what the fool thinks,
1438
01:09:06,602 --> 01:09:08,872
but the moment I dub him knight,
Griswold will challenge him
1439

- for the hand of my daughter.
- In mortal combat?

He dare not refuse,
they meet at lists,

and Sir Griswold's lance
runs the jester through

you are a delicate, lovely creature.

Tell me, does it bother you
that I may be a few years your senior?
1446

Oh, no, Sire. Not really.
1447
01:09:28,290 --> 01:09:32,961
In fact, you remind me so much of
my dear and recently departed father.

- What a horrible death.

- A little closer.
- I can see him now,

a little kiss?

- Just because it runs in the family

doesn't mean that everyone has it.

- Kiss me, Sire.
- Has it? Has what?

- Don't I please you, Sire?

and cousins and uncles...

- I, too, love the princess

Yes, I know.

- Impossible.

we can make no diversion.

- Is there any opening?
- No more than that, sir.

- Listen.

- Which one?
- The one with the figure of a pestle.

- Yes.

I don't want the vessel
with the pestle,

- The chalice from the palace.
- Hmm?

It's a little crystal chalice
with the figure of a palace.

Does the chalice from the palace
have the pellet with the poison?

What about the palace
from the chalice?

Not the palace from the chalice,

Right, but there's been a change.

from the palace.

from the palace?

Yipe!
1885
01:38:13,097 --> 01:38:15,599
Hurry, help the Fox.
1886
01:38:16,600 --> 01:38:19,019
- Jean.
- Oh, Hawkins, are you all right?
1887
01:38:19,144 --> 01:38:20,521
Never mind me. Where's the child?
1888
01:38:20,646 --> 01:38:22,022
- Safe.
- Good.
1889
01:38:22,189 --> 01:38:24,108
You've been wonderful.
1890
01:38:24,650 --> 01:38:25,901
RAVENHURST: How convenient.
1891
01:38:26,068 --> 01:38:28,904
The Fox and his mate. So my friends,
1892
01:38:29,029 --> 01:38:33,617
the tables have turned yet again,
but this time, for the last time.
1893
01:38:33,742 --> 01:38:36,370
And not only for one, but for two.
1894
01:38:36,829 --> 01:38:37,996
What a prize.
1895
01:38:38,080 --> 01:38:39,164

Griswold.
1898
01:38:55,389 --> 01:38:57,850
They'll cut us to ribbons. We've lost.
1899
01:38:58,016 --> 01:39:00,269
Hold, men. Hold.
1900
01:39:00,436 --> 01:39:02,646
Let no more English blood be spilled.
1901
01:39:02,813 --> 01:39:04,481
Victory is ours.

01:39:08,235 --> 01:39:09,570
Unhand the King.
1905
01:39:09,736 --> 01:39:11,363
- Surrender.
- Never.
1906
01:39:11,447 --> 01:39:14,992
Then die, a traitor to the crown.

(CLAMORING)
1910
01:39:24,126 --> 01:39:27,337
Sir Griswold, I speak to you
as knight to knight.
1911
01:39:27,463 --> 01:39:29,339
When you were dubbed,
you pledged your hand,
1912
01:39:29,423 --> 01:39:32,968
your heart, and your sword
to defend the true King of England.
1913
01:39:33,135 --> 01:39:35,304
- Is that right?
- Well?
1914
01:39:35,471 --> 01:39:37,347
This man is not the true King.
1915
01:39:37,431 --> 01:39:39,892
He has usurped the throne
from the legitimate heir.
1916
01:39:39,975 --> 01:39:41,393
Heir? What heir?
1917
01:39:41,560 --> 01:39:44,188
He who bears the mark
of the royal bloodline.
1918
01:39:44,354 --> 01:39:47,316
- The purple pimpernel.
- Purple pimpernel?
1919
01:39:47,483 --> 01:39:50,402
Balderdash. No such person exists.
