It's not that kind of wedding. They do everything for you.
No, I won't be wearing a crown.
Mom, I gotta run. I'm late for class.
I love you. 'Bye.
Our most important consideration is our patients.
We have with us today a young volunteer from the clinic.
Mr Lars Jensen.
11 years old. Chest pains. A rash on the abdomen.
(COUGHS)
And a cough. Thoughts, anyone?
Bacterial pneumonia.
But, given the rash, could be varicella.
TEACHER: Well, thank you for joining us, Miss Morgan.
Why don't you step down here and take a look?
Yes, Doctor.
Hi, Lars.
Hello.
(♫ QUIRKY MUSIC)
Let's see that rash.
Doctor, would you mind handing me a cotton swab and some alcohol?
As you wish.
Thank you, Doctor. This might be a bit cold.
Ooh.
Looks like we have a severe case of…
…viral blush.
(STUDENTS LAUGH)
Someone got into his mother's make-up.
But I do have a pain in my chest.
Really?
Yes. My heart aches for you, Paige Morgan.

OK, wise guy. Go on. Get outta here. (TEACHER CLEARS THROAT)

Hey, foxy lady.
Very funny. (BOTH LAUGH)
Some of us are meeting back at my dorm room later to study. Wanna come?
I can't tonight. Danish lesson?
Date with Edvard. A date?
You two are getting married in three weeks.
I know, but it's been so crazy lately with school
and planning the wedding, and we haven't had any time alone together.
So you two made a date? Mm-hm.
I'll see you tomorrow, alright, Jake?
Alright. 'Bye.
(GASPS) Whoops!
Soren?
I'm afraid my duties don't extend to that sort of thing.
Soren, what are you doing here? Where's Eddie?
I regret to say that Edvard is tied up in parliament, Miss Paige.
Again? I'm afraid so.
He apologises and asks for a 'raincheck'.
Is that what it's called?
(SIGHS)
PAIGE: Soren. SOREN: Yes, Miss Paige?
This isn't the way to the palace.
A small detour, if you don't mind.
There are some papers that need your signature.
They won't take but a minute.
In the east hall this time.
Alright, Soren.
(♫ MAGICAL MUSIC)
(SIGHS)
They're attracted to you.
How did you… (SIGHS)
I raided the entire Blue Monarch population of Europe.
But, you see, they wanted to come anyway.
You know, they say, if you catch a butterfly,
you should whisper a wish and set it free.
(GASPS)
The butterfly carries the wish directly to the spirits.
Well, then, it must work, huh?
Because my wish has already come true.
Come on.
WOMAN: Coming live from the Royal Palace
with Their Majesties Rosalind and Haarald,
Crown Queen Paige and King Edvard.
Your Majesty, is it true that the two of you were lab partners at the university?
Um, yes. I suppose you could say we literally had chemistry together.
(CHUCKLES) And so, has Paige impressed you
with her ability to adapt to her new role?
Definitely, yes.
Taking on the responsibilities of being a queen
and studying to be a doctor … I think that's very impressive.
And what's been the most challenging aspect for you, Miss Paige?
The language.
I mean, Danish is a beautiful language,
um, but it can be a challenge when you're learning.
I want so badly to be fluent.
(SPEAKS DANISH)
(LAUGHS) I will be fluent in no time.
REPORTER: The royal wedding of King Edvard and his wife-to-be,
Miss Paige Morgan, is just three weeks away.
Don't miss the live coverage here on…
Is Haarald blind? This girl's nothing more than a gold-digging commoner.
I wouldn't let her marry my son.
You don't have to worry about that, sir.
One … you don't have a son,
and two … the only gold you have to be dug is in your teeth.
I'm the third Prince of Norway, once removed.
I'll not have sarcasm from the likes of you.
Yes, Your Royal Highness.
And I am just your humble accountant.
So, you insist, Henrick, that my funds are currently in short supply.
Actually, I might say that you're insolvent, bankrupt, penniless…
Enough. Enough.
If I'd have been born one prince less removed,
I'd have been very, very rich.
But that wouldn't have changed your poor betting history at the track…
Henrick, I didn't call you in here to discuss my past financial ventures.
I called you in to show you this.
(♫ MYSTERIOUS MUSIC)
And this is?
My salvation.

That man is helpless when it comes down to dressing.
Maybe 'hopeless', you mean.
Your Majesty, Your Highnesses, may I bring you something to drink?
Indeed you may.
We absolutely crave a bottle of '83 Château Margaux.
Excellent choice.
Vlad, what is the occasion?
The occasion is I'm thirsty. (ALL LAUGH)
Excuse me! Excuse me. Um, I'd actually like a beer.
Whatever you have on tap would be fine.
Now, you see, there is a true Dane.
Yes, I'll have a beer as well, please. Thank you.
We will stay loyal to the Margaux, hey?
Edvard, will you share a box at Monaco this year?
No, I can't make it this year.
I've got better things to do, like run the country.
Oh, boo-hoo.
Yes, boo-hoo.
Well, then, you'll miss none other than your favourite princess
popping champagne and awarding the title in the Champions Circle.
Carmilla, I'll be terminally bored if it's just you again.
Oh, stop it. (GIGGLES)
And you, Paige. Please tell me you will make the race. Mm.
Oh, I don't think I'll be making any of the races this year.
I will be in the library trying to make the grade.
Ah, you see, there… there is my baby.
Gabi, perhaps instead of popping champagne in Monaco
you could pop a beer and start a new trend.
(BOTH LAUGH) (VLAD LAUGHS) Yeah, she is right.
Where is the wine? We need the wine.
You know, when I was young, I used to be terrified of these busts.
I used to think they were all watching me and would come alive and chase me.
I can't imagine why. They look so friendly.
Hmph.
Well, my mother used to think that it was my fear
of not living up to my ancestors' expectations.
I suppose there's some kind of truth in that.
They don't look terribly approving, do they?
I wonder what they'd say about us.
What would they say about us?
They would say, "Edvard, you are a lucky bastard."
And they'd bust a move.
You get that? "Bust a move". It's a joke.
Wow. Is my Danish as scary as whatever that just was?
(LAUGHS)
Wow. See, I love that. That's your happy smile.
As opposed to my unhappy smile?
No, as opposed to your trying smile, your diplomatic smile, your…
Is that supposed to be me? Yeah.
Polite, authoritative, a little flare of the nostrils.
Hmm…
Well, it seems you know me rather well.
Mm.
The florists are very pleased, and we need your approval on a centrepiece.
Uh…how about tomorrow after my biology class? Say…three o'clock?
Fine.
Now, the tailors are hoping for a final fitting for your wedding dress.
Oh! Um… I can't do it tomorrow at 9:00, though.
I've got Applied Anatomy. We're dissecting a gall bladder.
Lovely.
Yes, Soren?
Queen Rosalind. Miss Paige.
I'm sorry to interrupt you,
but Prince Albert of Norway is in the library.
In our library? Albert, now?
Yes, Your Majesty.
He came unannounced but says he has urgent business to discuss with you.
His Royal Highness and Edvard are on their way there.
Thank you, Soren. I will join them in the library.
Albert and Haarald went to school together.
He's a friend of yours?
Hardly. Albert's always been jealous of our family.
Then why is he here now?
'Urgent business' usually means he's here to borrow money.
Albert. Your Majesty.
Lovely, as always.
Haarald. Albert.
You remember Edvard, of course.
Of course. I remember when you were learning to play chess.
How you hated to lose your queen. And now you're king.
Funny how that happens, isn't it? (LAUGHS)
Yes.
EDVARD: Um…right.
Enough of the small talk. How much do you need this time, Albert?
Haarald, you hurt my feelings. I'm not here for money.
(SPEAKS DANISH)
"With law shall the land be built."
This is an original copy of the Jutland Code,
first proclaimed in the town of Vordingborg in 1241 AD,
and one of the most significant doctrines…
We're familiar with the doctrine, Albert.
What is the meaning of bringing it here?
(COUGHS)
"Where a son succeeds the throne unwedded,
"he must marry a woman of noble descent
"and ensure the monarchy.
"Whereupon such a woman does exist, he shall agree to marry her,
"otherwise surrender his position as king."
Is this some sort of joke?
No joke.
As it happens, my daughter, Princess Kirsten,
happens to be such a woman of noble birth
that this succession law applies to.
Your law is from the Middle Ages.
It's as archaic as chastity belts.
It's never been contested or rewritten.
Therefore, according to Danish constitution, it stands.
Edvard, why don't you join Paige in my quarters,
and your father and I will speak to Albert alone.
This is absurd.
Oomph! Sorry, sir. Didn't hear you coming.
You should, uh, work on your eavesdropping skills, Soren.
Yes, sir. Excuse me, sir.
Mm-hm?
Would you like me to work on them now?
Splendid idea. Thank you, sir.
Eddie, are you sure we shouldn't be worried?
Absolutely not.
Listen, in Norway, the tabloids affectionately refer to Albert
as 'The Royal Pain', and trust me, the title's well-deserved.
And what about Kirsten? How well do you know her?
She was my best friend when we were young.
What's she like? She's nice.
Mm.
Oh, you mean, "What does she look like?"
Well, to be quite honest, Kirsten was always…
…rotund.
Mm. You're not just saying that to make me feel better?
No.
Paige, listen, in three weeks, I'm going to marry
the most captivating, beautiful girl from Wisconsin,
and no law, no bankrupt idiot
is gonna stop that from happening, OK?
Come here.
(CLEARS THROAT)
Soren, this is for you.
Why, thank you, Miss Paige.
Soren, what's wrong?
What makes you think there's something wrong, sir?
You're smiling.
Well, I've just… received a present.
You've had this odd expression on your face ever since you arrived.
Has he not gone?
Actually, he has. He went to the airport.
Oh, well, excellent. What's the problem?
He went there to pick up his daughter.
Princess Kirsten.
(♫ TENSE MUSIC)
It just seems strange that this obscure law
suddenly takes precedence.
In Denmark, we adhere to the rule of law.
Mother, this is not a law. It's a plot hatched by some dimwit.
Though this particular law is antiquated,
I'm afraid it remains valid.
Every move we make in the coming weeks
will be of great consequence for us and for the state.
Our lawyers are the finest in the world.
They will discover a solution.
The solution is I marry Paige.
Of course it is, Edvard.
And your father and I will do everything in our power
to see that that happens.
Now, Albert has agreed to keep it out of the press.
That will give us the time to find a … how do you say it? …
a loophole in the law.
So…what do we do until then?
We continue to prepare for the wedding.
As far as anyone else is concerned,
Prince Albert of Norway is on a goodwill visit with his daughter.
Does Kirsten even know that her father is plotting this scheme?
'Cause if she did, I don't think she'd go along with this.
Edvard, Paige, as king and queen, you will find many will love you,
but some will seek to destroy you.
No matter the crisis, we must at all times do what is right for the people.
Kirsten's arrived.
(♫ TENSE MUSIC)
Oh, thank you so much for doing that.
Eddie, where I come from, that is not rotund.
Edvard!
Kirsten, I didn't recognise you.
Well, it has been nine years. Mwah!
How are you? I'm very well.
Um…this is Paige Morgan, my fiancée. This…
Paige. Mwah.
I have been absolutely dying to meet you …
the American girl who stole Denmark's heart.
Really, the pleasure is all mine. Do get a move on, Kirsten.
They're showing us to our rooms, and I'm hungry.
You can reminisce later.
Sorry.
Paige, let's get together later
and I will tell you every embarrassing story about Edvard
he doesn't want you to know.
(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)
And you… We've got some catching up to do, haven't we?
Crash diet? Mm.
"The cutaneous nerve branches to the lateral thoracic wall
"are derived from the…?"
Intercostal nerves. Very good.
I just don't understand why he wanted to have dinner with her alone.
"During development, the limb bud that forms the upper extremity
"rotates approximately 90 degrees in what direction?"
Laterally.
He said she'd be more forthcoming without me present.
Ah, yes. Yes.
True or false …
all cervical vertebrae have bifida spinous processes.
False. It would help if she didn't look like a supermodel.
Perhaps we should move on to your Danish lesson.
Sorry.
No need for apologies.
(CLEARS THROAT)
But if you don't mind my saying, Miss Paige,
you have nothing to be jealous of.
I'm not jealous.
Who would be jealous of a gorgeous blonde Norwegian princess?
Well, if my opinion is of any consolation,
I think that, frankly…
How do they say it in the States?
"Girl got nothin' on you."
(LAUGHS)
Yo.
Edvard, look, I just want you to know that I feel so embarrassed
by my father's behaviour.
Ah, well, he's, um…
I mean, your poor fiancêe must think I'm some evil witch trying to take her place.
No, not at all. Listen, I told her there's no way you could've been involved in this.
So she doesn't hate me?
No! No. No, um…
Do you know, actually, I think you two would get on very well.
She seems like a great girl.
Yes, she is.
She'd have to be, wouldn't she, to land a guy like you?
Well, that's very kind of you to say so.
It's been a long time.
Mm. I know.
I was remembering one of the times I came to spend the summer here.
I think I was about eight years old.
Oh, God. So you must've been, what?
Um, I was about…
- 10? - 10, yes.
I distinctly remember going up to your bedroom
and asking if you wanted to play.
(LAUGHS)
And you turned around very seriously and said to me,
"Kirsten, we're no longer children, you know.
"You don't ask someone if they want to play."
BOTH: "You ask them to do something."
Yes. Oh, God. (LAUGHS)
- You were such an obnoxious brat. - Thank you.
Oh, but then again,
you were the only boy who didn't make fun of me for being fat,
so for that, I'm very grateful.
Well, kids can be cruel.
I mean, let's face it, you were a bit of a chubster.
(LAUGHS)
(CHUCKLES)
Excuse me, but you were not such a hottie in those days yourself.
Anyway, look, I'm here to help.
I hope you know that.
Yes, I do, and I thank you.
Um…it's nice to see you again, Kirsten.
- And you. Cheers. - Cheers.
Hey, Mom. It's me. I guess you're out starting your day.
I'm just about to go to bed,
but I just wanted to call and tell you that…um…
…everything's great and I can't wait for you to get here.
Kiss Dad for me.
KIRSTEN: Paige, I'm so glad you agreed to talk to me.
My father's acting like a complete fool.
I'm so sorry he's causing such drama just weeks before your wedding.
- Can I ask you something? - Anything.
Why is your father even doing this if it isn't something that you want?
Because it's not about what I want.
It's about him wanting to live vicariously through me.
You know, being married to a king, a title he'll never have …
that kind of stuff.
Right.
Actually, my personal theory is that he's having a midlife crisis.
My own father had one of those at 40. He got an earring.
- Tragic. - Mm.
(KNOCK AT DOOR)
Paige?
(DISTANT CHATTER AND LAUGHTER)
(BOTH LAUGH AND CHATTER)
- Good morning. - Oh, good morning.
Your Majesty.
(WOMEN LAUGH) What's so funny?
Oh, nothing.
We were just eating, and I said something about toast
and she thought I said 'toes', and I guess you had to be there.
Sounds hilarious.
Eddie, it was funny.
You know what? We should go.
Oh, uh, yeah.
Um…I will be back in a little bit. Are you two going somewhere?
Kirsten's going to show me some of her favourite sights in Copenhagen.
Oh, you're going shopping.
See you later. Leave some money in the Treasury!
(BOTH GIGGLE)

You're so cute. Look at you. Yeah.

Your outfit is so nice. Maybe he's just having a bad day.
How much longer is Kirsten in town for?
Dunno. Hopefully long enough to stir things up.
This fairytale romance is getting bloody boring.
I want the best lawyers and judges in the country
working around the clock on this.
My colleagues and I are confident we'll crack this case within a week.
Good. We must resolve this matter quickly and quietly.
We've got a wedding to attend.
Hey, Paige. Oh, hey.
- You off to the library? - Yes. Where are you off to?
I'm going into town. I need to pick something up.
But I'll meet you and Edvard at the restaurant later.
- Great! - Cool.
Oh, um, are you gonna stop back by here to change?
Um, probably not. This place is pretty casual.
Have a nice day.
Thanks. You too.
I thought this place was casual.
No, you look fine. Don't worry.
Greetings, lovebirds.
Paige, how is it that you manage to look so smashing in everything you wear?
Kirsten, you changed.
Right. Yeah, I had to.
I met this dreamy guy in Old Town,
but he managed to spill his drink all over me.
Well, the rogues' gallery here's already assembled.
Shall we wander up?
- Hi! - Hello.
Hi!
- Oh, hi! - Kirsten!
Hi, girls!
Naughty Kirsten. It's just like you.
(SPEAKS DANISH) Denmark with no advanced price, yeah?
Gabi, how are you? It's been so long!
- Mwah! You look delectable! - Well, that's the point, isn't it?
But, really, Kirsten, why all the hush-hush?
- Hi, Paige. - Hi.
Edvard, I want you two-to-one on the green this year.
- No, no time for polo, Vlad. - You mean no time for fun.
(PHONE RINGS) Yes, hello?
I've just gotta take this.
- One sec. - OK.
Paige, should we order you a beer?
I'll…try the wine.
Mm, practice makes perfect.
So, Carmilla, tell all.
Are you still with that guy? What was his name?
CARMILLA: The prince from Greece?
KIRSTEN: No, not that bronzed Adonis. No. The norm.
Oh, the bartender. God, no. That was just a fling.
I remember. Your parents were beside themselves. (LAUGHS)
I dated a norm just before Vlad and I began our current tryst.
You alley cat. I had no idea. (GROWLS)
Wait, so both of you dated a guy named Norm?
(ALL LAUGH) Oh, no, no. That's not the case.
'Norm' is just a nickname.
- Oh. - GABI: Yeah, for a commoner.
You know, like the 'norm'. Regular person.
I mean… Tch. That didn't come out right.
KIRSTEN: We're being idiots.
Paige, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to sound like a snob.
Gabi was just referring to the whole culture clash thing.
You know, coming from such different worlds.
Sometimes it can really cause problems.
But you and Edvard don't have anything to worry about.
His parents love you, Denmark loves you, and so do we.
GABI: Oh, there's Edvard!
I propose a toast. To Paige of Denmark.
- Ah, cheers. - CARMILLA: Cheers, everyone.
Cheers.
What did I miss?
(KNOCK AT DOOR) Come in.
Wait! Wait, wait, wait, wait!
Kommer in.
Very good!
I was gonna say, "Come shopping," but I see you're studying, so…
Mmm. Trying.
Hey, it's a difficult language. Don't give up.
I just feel like I can understand so much more than I can speak.
That's rubbish. The problem isn't you, it's what they're teaching you.
I mean…
Trust me. I speak seven languages.
The only way to learn is to completely immerse yourself in it.
Believe me, I've picked up more French living in St Tropez for five months
than I did studying it for five years.
What else did you pick up in St TropeZ?
(LAUGHS) Wouldn't you like to know?
No, seriously, I can help. We just need to start talking.
Well, that'll be a short conversation.
(LAUGHS)
So, my dear Paige, how is your Danish coming along?
Oh, she's doing terribly well.
I've been helping her with her lessons. That's very kind of you, Kirsten.
Yes, see, Paige is dedicated to learning Danish quickly.
So, Paige, tell us some interesting news.
OK, um, let's see.

Well, it is a tricky…

Why don't we retire to the dining room for dessert?
Splendid idea.
Did I do something wrong?
Um, well, you called my mother a donkey.
Uh, a green donkey, in fact.
No!
I said she had a green thumb
and that she waves her hand and flowers grow.

You have your studies.
But I think you're confusing father and daughter

Come on, just go and talk to her.
You two can work this out.

Come on.

Well, I was coming by to apologise.
But then I found this.
You almost had me.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Oh, come on, Kirsten, I know what this is.
Urushiol resin is what they find in poison ivy
that causes an allergic reaction in the skin.
I'm just a guest here, Paige.
That could very easily belong to

Right, so the Duke of Windsor is out there somewhere
missing his after-shower itching powder.
May I see? Mmm.
Hmm.

You know, I knew that powder was going to work,
but I didn't realise it was going to work quite so well.
I mean, the Bernini statue into the cake?
Paige, that was priceless.
I can't believe I actually envied you.
Oh, don't feel bad. It's only natural that you would.
I mean, you're a sweet girl, Paige, but let's face it,
you're a little out of your league here.
It's not your fault. You got swept up in a fairytale. I understand.
You see, the problem is,
Eddie was never meant to marry someone who was born to milk cows.
Edvard and I are getting married in a week.
Don't you know to give up when the game is already lost?
There is no game, Paige.
There are only royals and norms.
And I'm afraid they just don't go together…
…no matter how hard they might try.
Does Edvard know you feel this way? He might find it very interesting.
Oh, go ahead. Tell Edvard anything you like.
Please. I dare you.
Eddie and I have known each other all our lives.
It will just end up an ugly little case of my word against yours.
So, by all means, make more trouble for yourself,
give Eddie yet another reason
to feel that marrying you is just one big mistake.
EDVARD: Hello. (KNOCKS)
Ah.
So, have you two sorted things out?
We're fine. It was just a little misunderstanding.
Good.
'Cause the last thing I need right now is my oldest, dearest friend

I wanted to tell him, but I just couldn't.
I mean, he seemed so relieved that everything was OK.
So what? Are you afraid you're going to disappoint him?
Afraid? No. I just… I mean, what difference is it gonna make?
It's not gonna change the law. It's not gonna help find a loophole.
It's only gonna put more pressure on Eddie.
I'm just gonna have to deal with this on my own.
Well, what are you going to do?
Beat her at her own game.
(♫ 'GONNA MAKE IT' BY KRISTIN MAINHART PLAYS)
Ladies and gentlemen. May we have your attention, please?
King Edvard. Thank you.
(APPLAUSE) Thank you.
It's an honour for me to be here today.
And I would especially like to thank the Copenhagen Historical Society
for making this event possible.
For decades, this ship proudly served
our nation's greatest industry,
and today we're here to celebrate
the commencement of the restoration of 'King Clupea'.
(APPLAUSE)
That's your diplomatic smile.
I'm sorry Edvard couldn't stay for lunch, Mr Christianson.
Oh, I fully understand.
Thank you so much for including my father and me in the celebration.
Oh, we are honoured to have you here, Princess Kirsten.
Thank you.
I love the name of the ship.
Isn't 'clupea' the scientific name for 'herring'?
Why, yes, it is, Miss Paige. Most people don't know that.
I was reading the other day about how Margrethe I of Denmark
had to battle Norway for Scandinavian supremacy.
She ran naval gauntlets to keep the city supplied with food.
She wouldn't have had to go to such extremes, of course,
if she'd had the support of local fishermen.
Actually, Kirsten, I believe you're mistaken.
Margrethe was revered by the local fishermen.
They felt she was the only one who could identify with their needs.
Or perhaps it was because she was a true royal
and the commoners knew she was qualified to lead them.
PAIGE: In any case, she issued a royal warrant,
giving the Norwegians one week to vacate Denmark.
Indeed she did. (LAUGHS)
Miss Paige, I must say, I'm impressed with your breadth of knowledge.
You have truly embraced Denmark as your country.
So, shall we start?
Absolutely. This looks fabulous.
Paige, I imagine you're excited to dine on the national delicacy.
Lumpfish caviar.
Oh, lumpfish? Mmm.
(GASPS)
Madam, you may want to eat the caviar not with the silver fork
but with the caviar spoon,
to prevent the metal from ruining the taste.
Oh.
We're having caviar again tonight, Paige.
Don't forget your fork.
(APPLAUSE)
We all extend out heartfelt thanks to Crown Queen Paige
for her generous sponsorship of today's great masters charity event.
Crown Queen Paige.
Thank you, Mrs Lorenseon.
You, my friends, are gathered here today to support a cause
that is near and dear to my heart, to all our hearts.
The donations made today
will provide medicine to the world's neediest.
And now I would like to introduce, from Rome,
piano maestro Mikhail Elestroni,
who has agreed to entertain us today with excerpts from 'The Magic Flute'.
Maestro Elestroni.
It's an honour.

You wanted to see me?
It's all over the papers!
Oh, dear.
Mmm.
How did this happen? That's what we'd like to know.
Well, you don't think it was me?
Why would I risk alienating the entire country of Denmark
just days before the wedding?
This is a delicate matter, and I gave you my word.
I'm a man of my word.
It's time we turned the crude instrument of the media to our own advantage.
A press conference? When? Tomorrow at 2:30.
I've got a class at 1:00.

I guess I could leave early. Are you sure?
Yeah, shouldn't be a problem.

King Edvard, can you tell us your reaction

Er, well, disappointment at first and surprise.
But we need to have the flexibility to re-examine archaic rules of this nature.
Your Majesty, is it meaningful that Miss Paige is not here with you today?
(DOOR OPENS) She…
I'm here. (CAMERAS CLICK)
Sorry I'm late.
REPORTERS: Miss Paige.
Just one question at a time, please.
Miss Paige, do you intend to go ahead with the marriage?
Of course. The succession law does not change my feelings for Edvard.
Are you concerned about the reaction of the Danish people to the news?
Well, I've come to believe that the Danish people are among
the most kind and forward-thinking people on this planet.
I trust their reaction will be supportive and understanding.
King Edvard, would you be willing to abdicate the throne to marry Paige?
Um, sir, that is a thoughtless question.
But, Your Majesty, if no legal solution can be found,
would you relinquish the monarchy in order to marry Paige Morgan?
Um…
Sir, once again, I'm confident that will not happen.
Miss Paige, would you ask King Edvard to abandon the crown
in order to marry you?
She…she… Er…
(WHISPERS)
In my country, we aren't bound by such unusual customs.
We're free to marry whomever we love.
Crown Queen Paige, do you not consider Denmark to be your country?
(MUTTERING)
(ROSALIND SIGHS)
But this is not at all what I meant.
My dear Paige, there's certain things
that the Danish people take very seriously.
Pride in their monarchy is one of them.
But I love Denmark and I love all of you.
This was taken completely out of context.
The press does not know the meaning of context.
They care about one thing … selling papers.
You should know that by now.
(SIGHS) Well…
KIRSTEN: They're very sensitive, aren't they?
ROSALIND: Mmm.

I give mine 12 hours a day. Ah, I'll have to try that.
KIRSTEN: And these phalaenopses are just gorgeous.
You really do have a way with flowers.
Thank you. It's a personal hobby.
EDVARD: Paige.
(SIGHS) I've been looking for you everywhere.
Actually, I was looking for you too.
Hey. Hey.
You OK? Yeah, fine.
I wanted to talk to you about tonight.
Yes. Precisely what I wanted to talk to you about.
Look, I've got a meeting at 6:00,
and then after, I thought you and I could go for a meal somewhere,
just the two of us.
I was gonna ask you if maybe we could eat early
because I have a study group and it's probably gonna go late.
Right. OK.
It's just that exams are, you know… Yes, yes, I know, in two weeks.
Um…
OK, look, I could reschedule and then…
Well, no, I wouldn't want you to do that. It's too important to…
Um… No, you're right. OK.

So, how do you feel?
Well, I feel a little shaky on immunoglobulins,

No, I'm not talking about the exam, Paige.
I'm talking about the tabloids and the stuff with Kirsten.
(SIGHS)
I don't know, I just…
I mean, I want nothing more in the world than to marry Edvard.
But all this stuff with Kirsten… Hey…
…and the tabloids… It's gonna be alright.
Oh, are you sure?
Paige, you are an amazing girl,
and you are going to make an incredible doctor.
But will I make a good queen?
Yes.
Denmark is lucky to have you.
Thank you, Jake. I appreciate your dishonesty.
It's the truth.
Come here.
Gotcha.
(CAMERA CLICKS)
I thought you went there to study. I did. We were.
Eddie, this is ridiculous. Is it?
I mean, you… (LAUGHS)
You two look awfully comfortable.
Jake is my friend.
After everyone left, we were talking.
I was telling him about everything we'd been through,
everything we had to deal with, and… (SIGHS)
So he hugged me.
That was it. I see.
What? What? Nothing.
Eddie, come on. You don't actually think that…
After everything I've been through.
I'm so tired of having to defend myself against these stupid tabloids.
Well, the point is, you shouldn't have to.
Exactly. No, you're not hearing me.
You shouldn't even allow yourself
to be put in any situation remotely compromising.
It's time you start acting less like, um…
Like a what?
And what exactly have you been through?
Like a what, Eddie? Like a norm?
Paige, for better or for worse,
things are done differently around here.
I know.
And when you allow your actions to be misinterpreted in any way at all,
you affect much more than yourself.
Like you, right?
(SIGHS) Right. I didn't say that, but, yes, like me.
Like…my family.
Like the entire monarchy.
Do you know the risk I've taken with you?
I mean, do you think…
Do you think this has been easy on me?
Easy on you?
Maybe Kirsten's right.
Right about what? Oh, come on, Eddie.
I may not think like a royal, but I'm far from stupid.
And contrary to what you may think, I am not paranoid.
Well, what are you talking about? What?
Whether you choose to see it or not,
Kirsten has been trying to come between us from the moment she arrived.
And the funny thing is, I'm starting to think she's right.
Maybe she does belong here more than I do.
No, Paige, look, I don't feel that way.
I don't feel that way about her.
Maybe you don't think you do,
but inside, you can feel something's wrong.
Kirsten coming, the loophole, the tabloids.
Maybe it's all just a sign.
Paige… Don't… Paige… No.
When that reporter asked you how you felt about abdicating the throne,
your only answer was that it wouldn't come to that.
But what if it does?
Are you really prepared to give this all up?
W…
I suddenly feel very embarrassed.
Paige, listen…
You know, I…
I started to believe in fairytales.
What are you doing? I'm sorry, Eddie.
(CLEARS THROAT)
(KNOCK AT DOOR)
Yes?
Hi.
May I come in?
Edvard, I heard what happened, and I'm so sorry.
I know how hard this must be for you.
I just somehow feel it's all my fault.
Yes, well, blaming yourself won't help.
I know, and I'm sorry. I don't mean to make this about me.
I just feel bad.
(SNIFFS)
You know, I was thinking that, um…
…that maybe this was impossible from the start.
Well, our world is so very different from most people's.
Yeah. Yeah.
You know, Edvard, we've known each other all our lives.
I never would have predicted we'd be in this situation.
I honestly thought my father was crazy.
But the truth is, the more I'm here, the more it makes me wonder.
Wonder what?
Eddie…
…maybe no-one's found a loophole
because a loophole isn't meant to be found.
You have to marry before your 23rd birthday,
which is only three days after your wedding day …
the day that you're bound by Danish law
to take a Scandinavian princess as your bride.
Maybe that's no coincidence.
Maybe that's fate…
…bringing us together.
Good God.
Miss Paige, this is silly.
I think you should come back to the palace.
- I can't. - Why not?
You know the answer to that, Soren.
Besides, I'm only here until exams are over,
and then, I guess, back to the States.
Miss Paige.
You know, in my youth, I was a footballer.
Excuse me, a soccer player.
In one of the best junior leagues in Denmark.
It may be hard to believe looking at me now, but I was rather good,
one of the top players in the country for my age, actually.
The year I turned 16,
I played in a championship game that drew scouts from all over Europe.
Suddenly, there were expectations and pressures I never knew existed.
In any event, I spent the whole game trying to impress the scouts,
and in doing so, I ended up trying too hard.
As a result, I played the worst game of my life.
You see, Miss Paige, I had forgotten why I was there in the first place.
Why were you there?
Because I loved the game.
Always did.
Goodbye, Miss Paige.
'Bye, Soren.
I'm sorry, Edvard.
I know how difficult this must be for you.
But we must protect the monarchy.
So…
So, what are you saying?
Are you saying that I should marry Kirsten?
I'm saying that sometimes we have to do what's best for the people,
not what's best for ourselves.

Soren, I've made a decision.
I don't suppose it involves slowing down?
Well, speed helps me think. You know that.
Have you tried meditation?
Same clarity, less potential loss of life.
I've decided to go through with the marriage.
To Princess Kirsten?
I've given a lot of thought to what she said about fate,
and I think she's onto something.
But, sir… No. No 'buts'.
