"Someone put a needle to the horse so it'd run wild." "You just gave me the only reason worth staying alive." "Be careful, 'cause tonight they call it the night of the pregnant." "I'm in no mood to dance." "I'm Fernando de Medina, the new village commissioner." "Tomorrow is the harvest feast." "Held in the meadow by the woods." "This marriage bond ensures the continuity of the house of Austria." "For everyone's sake you better realize that I too work in this house." "For everyone's sake you'd better get out of here soon." "We searched every corner of the palace and the princess isn't here." "She's gone." "Fear isn't necessary when justice is dealt." "I wish you luck." "Thinking this way you'll need it." "My part of the deal is done." "We couldn't agree to that dangerous marriage." "By now she must have met your man." "Are you lost?" "No." "It's dangerous to travel this forest if you don't know it." "I want you to gather all the stable boys, to find and kill the one who left me this way." "No!" "Let's go!" "Come on!" "If tomorrow my daughter doesn't show up I myself, will make it public." "Even if your empire collapses because of it." "I know who's eating people." "A panther as black as night." "It's from the new commissioner." "This is an insult." "Who does that man think that I am?" "For the eternal glory of Louis XIV." "The princess isn't dead." "Hurry, because the beast may show up." "Sátur, you were right, there's a panther." "She's in a cave in the forest." "She only said she's a noble." "They were going to marry her to an old man, so she ran away." "I just came from Salamanca." "Is there a cure?" "If the operation goes wrong he could be disabled for life." "If I offended you I'm sorry." "I just wanted you to know I'm not that kind of woman." "You didn't even have the nerve to tell me it was you." "You'll live in the dark, same as I do." "No, please!" "Hernán!" "You have to stop the harvest celebration." "Why?" "There's a beast in the forest." "I think it's a panther." "The princess Margarita Teresa of Austria, daughter of His Majesty, the King, her whereabouts are unknown." "Majesty," "I found your daughter in the woods, and..." "What's your name?" "Alonso de Montalvo." "Are you the son of Gonzalo?" "Where's the princess?" "In the forest, in a cave." "We're taking you to the palace." "Your father expects you." "Protect the princess!" "Kill her." "You had a chance with that operation." "What operation?" "There's nothing unusual here." "Apparently the panther came with a cargo of slaves, and it escaped." "The rest you know." "If I turn out disabled, promise me you'll kill me." "It's just that when you start to speak in public you go on a bit..." "Even the silversmith, miser as he is, donated a bag of food." "Any help is going to be small" "The fire has wiped out the entire village." "These people lost everything." "But clothes they're not going to miss, master." "Look." "What's this?" "My lucky pants." "They've certainly known a few woman!" "The thing is that lately I..." "Trash like that's not good enough to give to anyone." "Let's see, God always said... that you should give to those in need, that which you do not want, or what you don't need." "Let's see what the kid's got in his sack." "Didn't I tell you?" "Well, he got a cup, and it's brand new." "Put that in the bag, Sátur." "Since you haven't mentioned it," "I wanted to talk about your brother." "Have you heard what they're saying, he's going to be operated on?" "I know." "He may not survive it." "I know that, too." "And if that happens, would it upset you?" "The shits!" "It was a..." "Sátur!" "It hurts." "Gabi." "Are you okay?" "Son!" "Are you okay?" "Oh, master, I hit him with a stone!" "God!" "Wait, wait." "What you were doing here?" "We were just shooting birds." "Holy Virgin, hunting birds with what's coming over us, boy!" "Sátur, we have to clean the wound." "Bring water." "Yes, okay." "Sit there." "Why did I...!" "No, there's no water." "Does it hurt?" "We must disinfect it." "There's no water left." "Fill this, hurry." "Did I hurt you, son?" "Bring the water... today!" "Come on!" "Brother!" "He's dead." "No!" "No!" "No!" "Brother!" "Come on!" "Please!" "Come on!" "If we touch a brain nerve we could leave him an invalid." "Or I can die." "I'm willing to take the risk, doctor." "Let's start as soon as possible." "First you must sign the authorization." "Here." "And now... drink this." "It will calm you." "I don't think any potion can relax me." "Trepanation is an extremely painful operation." "I stand pain well, doctor." "Hernán, we'll perforate your skull, and then draw out the clot with a cannula." "You'll be grateful of drinking this." "Come on, drink it." "Come on." "Right." "Let's not delay it." "No need to tie me." "I won't escape during the operation." "Like it or not you're going to shake." "And if you do it during trepanation." "We could bust your brain." "Let's begin." "We should have gone with him." "Like I said, Nuño, we can't do anything." "It is up to the doctors." "What if it goes wrong?" "Then we couldn't go with him, either." "We leave this world as alone as we arrived." "Any news?" "Do we know anything new?" "No, señora, not about the commissioner, but the Countess of Narbonne just arrived." "She expects to stay." "What?" "I'm unable to accommodate anyone now." "But ma'am, we can not deny asylum." "It would be a lack of decorum." "And of protocol." "It's one of the largest fortunes in Europe." "I'm not in the mood to endure anyone's mournings, especially hers." "The last time I saw her she didn't stop telling me... how she found her husband dead in bed." "It must be very sad to be alone at her age, señora." "Lucretia, dear!" "Countess of Narbonne!" "You look great." "Better than ever." "Sorry to show up so unexpectedly, it's so hot that he insists I stop to rest." "Right now I was telling to my son how big an honor it is to have you in my palace." "I told you, footmen go through the back door." "I am not a lackey." "He's my husband." "Your husband?" "We met in Italy, and you see, we're back from the honeymoon." "Well, he doesn't lack elegance." "But who'd have thought it?" "I'm so glad you're over your..." "Catalina, nobody cares if you're happy or not." "Excuse her." "No, there's nothing to excuse." "Marquise of Santillana." "Right?" "Yes." "I'm Javier Uceda, a pleasure." "Lucrecia, is there news about my husband?" "No." "Father Javier!" "The shits!" "Did you see the scene we caused in that house?" "And how my Gabi cried hysterically!" "The father?" "Did you seen him?" "Sátur, I saw him." "I can imagine how one feels when you open the door and... and they bring your son, dead." "Damn fucking life, always wrecking the same people!" "Why don't the nobles get heat strokes?" "That boy didn't die of a heat stroke." "What do you mean...?" "Master, don't start over thinking things, it's very clear." "They'd spent hours in the sun." "He was perfectly alright." "He just drank, started screaming, and collapsed." "Excuse me, but you have a fondness for mysteries..." "Sátur, no one cries like that because of a heat stroke." "Besides..." "I saw some froth in his mouth." "Bring the water, it's for today!" "Brother!" "The symptoms relate to the effect of a poison." "The grail is made of a material that poisons... whatever liquid is poured inside." "The cup." "What cup?" "The cup, Sátur." "Father." "Is it true what they say about Gabi's brother?" "Yes, son." "We couldn't do anything for him." "Now more than ever you have to be at his side, Alonso." "Yes." "Come, go to him." "Alonso." "The wooden cup you put in the sack..." "Does it matter now, Father?" "It's important." "Where did you get it?" "I found it on the ground." "What's up?" "Nothing." "Go on now." "Go to Gabi." "He needs you." "Can you tell me what the hell you're up with that damn cup?" "I think it's the Holy Grail." "Sir, do you need something?" "I wanted to talk to the cook." "She's not here right now, but if you tell me what you want..." "You see... my wife has a disease that makes her extremely sensitive to pine nuts." "A simple trace in the sauce could end her life." "Relax, I'll tell the cook not to put them in the stew." "I appreciate it." "Another thing. bring a little water to the Countess." "Yes, sir." "Don't worry." "We'll bring it right away." "Do me a favor and bring the water." "Just thinking about that room turns my stomach." "At least they could sleep in separate beds." "No way, there, all mixed up:" "the robe, the sin..." "But where do you want him to sleep, since they're married?" "What marriage, if the man, two days ago, was a priest?" "Well it seems that something made him lose his vocation." "He who is priest is a priest forever." "Besides, where do you see a relationship... in which the woman is twice her husbands age," "He could be her grandson." "Yes, but what about her happiness?" "That's against nature." "Men must marry younger women." "Look at the king." "That's an exemplary marriage." "But the king is married to his niece!" "Well, that's because there are so few noble people." "It's difficult for us to find a partner, imagine how it is for them." "Besides it's nosense." "How can the Countess give him a son?" "Well, I don't think they're thinking about children, Catalina." "Well just that:" "a marriage without kids..." "that's not marriage at all." "It's not sealed." "Catalina, Mrs. Irene's gone mad, she's burning the Bible." "Oh, Holy Virgin!" "Hurry there!" "Master, are you sure there wasn't an easier way... to find out if the cup is the Holy Grail." "instead of having to come here, to Guadalajara?" "All that has been written about the sacred chalice are only conjectures and legends." "Why do you think those people will be able to help us?" "You see that man there?" "He works for the king." "And if you don't mind me asking, since that man is so important, what's he doing there, tinkering between old stones?" "The King has commanded him to rebuild the monastery." "They say that St. Mary of Bonabal was one of the first Cistercian monasteries in Spain." "So it used to be a circus?" "Not circus, Cistercian, belonging to the Cistercian Order." "The Cistercian, yes." "Here, as usual, I'm lost." "What has that order to do with the king, and... the Holy Grail?" "Very nice." "Hey, someday, could perhaps warn me before leaving." "Don't yell or scream, I won't hurt you." "I just need your help." "Right?" "I know you're an expert in wood carvings." "I need to know the age of an object." "Can you help me?" "I only work for the king." "It's this." "It's a very old piece." "It could be more than 1500 years old." "Where did you get it?" "That's not important." "It's just an old cup." "Isn't it?" "You know as well as I that it isn't." "Many people have died trying to find out where it was hiding." "It's the Holy Grail." "Sorry, sorry." "I come here every morning." "I couldn't go without having one last swim." "Are your leaving?" "Tomorrow." "I've asked to be moved." "Aren't you happy here?" "No." "I could talk to your superiors, and... tell them to talk to my uncle..." "It's because of you." "If I give up my priestly vocation," "Would you come with me?" "Is that a yes?" "And how can we?" "Meet me here tomorrow at the same time." "I'll take you out of the convent and we'll go away." "Trust me." "Señora, by God!" "My God, you've even burned the St. Pancras!" "For less than that, the Holy Inquisition has killed many." "It would be funny, coming from the niece of the Cardinal!" "What a racket!" "Leave me alone, Catalina." "I know that Javier was the priest at your convent, and I understand how disappointed you must feel." "You have no idea." "I'm the first to say it's wrong!" "Just because this man has left the priesthood... you mustn't give up your faith." "Wash your face, we'll go and buy a new Bible." "No." "There, that's it!" "What are you doing?" "Burn them!" "Burn them!" "But, what's up, ma'am?" "You shouldn't do that." "Don't tell me what I can or can't to do." "I'm sick of always doing what my uncle wants, what my husband wanted." "From now on I'm going to take my own decisions." "Yes, ma'am." "Burn them, I said." "Come on." "Why, master, we had the Holy Grail at home and had no idea." "Any of us could have died." "Sátur!" "No one must know this." "Yes, master." "Now I'll also tell you something:" "These Templars are so mean!" "One thing is to protect and another is to annihilate every Christian." "Gabi, you know you can count on me for anything, eh?" "Sure." "Alonso, would you walk me to my house?" "Yes, of course." "Are you okay?" "Are you okay?" "Gabi, Gabi!" "Gabi!" "Help, please!" "Call someone, get help!" "Gabi!" "What's going on there?" "I don't know." "Call someone, please get help." "Wake up." "Sátur!" "Gabi!" "Speak, son." "What is it?" "Alonso, what happened?" "I don't know." "He fell so suddenly." "He's very hot, Master." "Here." "Give him water." "Here, Gabi." "No!" "It'll do you good." "No!" "Gabi, Gabi, Gabi!" "No!" "No, no!" "Easy, Gabi." "Here, son." "No!" "What shall we do, Master, if just to bringing water to my son, scares him so much?" "It breaks my heart to see him like that." "Don't worry, he'll drink." "Gabi is affected by the death of his brother." "It is logical for him to think that the water was to blame." "Oh, really?" "And is it also logical for him to die of thirst?" "Who knows how long he's spent without drinking." "I'll show him that the water wasn't poisoned." "I'm not sure, master." "What if we don't get him to drink?" "How long can he go without water?" "Sátur, he'll drink before that." "What will you do?" "Put it away." "Put it away, you say ?" "No one will find it here." "And no one was supossed to find it under the bridge they took it from." "You must destroy it right away." "My son is in that shape because of that thing." "Sátur, we cann't destroy it." "How many people have to die?" "Gabi's brother died and it almost took your brother-in-law." "Doesn't that matter to you?" "Of course it matters to me." "Then?" "Destroy it right away, master." "Look, as a Christian," "I know it's a serious thing to get rid of the chalice from the Last Supper, but we have no other solution." "Sátur, I can't." "The Grail is related to my mother." "Master, you'll find another way to your mother and to clarify your past." "Common sense tells me that cup is a danger, we have to put an end to it." "Trust me." "I'll see how Gabi's doing." "We weren't wrong." "He had a clot." "The pulse is stable." "Now the most important thing... is to avoid any infection." "Do you think there's a possibility for him to recover his vision?" "Too early to tell." "We'll have to see how he progresses." "His heart just stopped." "How are you?" "I tried to get him to drink, but he throws out everything." "Gabi, you know I'd never lie to you." "Right?" "I know it's normal... to think the water had something to do with what happened to your brother, but it's not so." "But father, he died just after drinking." "How do you know it wasn't poisoned?" "You have to trust me." "He's burning up." "You have to drink, son." "How is he?" "Has he drunk?" "No." "Leave us alone, please." "What will you do?" "You can't force him to drink." "Master, he's my son." "Or are you going to tell me how to look after him?" "No." "My son, you have to drink." "If you don't you'll get very sick." "I do not want to die." "But you're not going to die." "I won't drink." "The water isn't poisoned." "Your brother died because of this." "It's a lie." "You say it just so I'll drink." "No, son." "Look, until recently I didn't know you existed, but I'm your father and I'll never let anything bad happen to you." "It's the Holy Grail." "Whoever drinks from it, dies." "This is a secret between us." "No one else can know, okay?" "The water is good." "See?" "It's okay." "Come on." "Drink, son." "Trust me." "Come on." "Drink." "Mother, you must let me go see him." "I already said no, Nuño." "He doesn't want us there." "You have to respect his wishes." "Yes, but there's no news and he could be doing badly." "That's why I don't want you to go." "If something's happened I don't want you to be there." "I prefer you to remember him as he was." "Mother, I know exactly what I could find." "You've no idea how cruel life can be, son." "Maybe it's time to find out." "Nuno." "Nuno!" "I'll be back tonight." "Isn't your son eating with us?" "He has other plans." "You know how young people are." "Have a seat, please." "Señora." "You shouldn't drink wine, dear." "Your doctors said it doesn't agree with you." "Have you seen, Lucrecia?" "Rather than a husband, I have a custodian." "You make a lovely couple." "Catalina, what are you waiting for?" "Serve the first course at once." "Forgive me, I'm late." "Señora, don't you want me to bring you a shawl?" "You could get a cold, or something." "I'm fine, Catalina, don't worry." "Would you pass the bread, Father?" "Sorry..." "Javier." "Honey, are you okay?" "Summon a doctor, Catalina." "Hurry." "Breathe." "I'm sorry, Lord, but this... has to disappear from circulation." "Because of it many people have died." "Just to think, you had it in your own hands!" "It's almost like touching God." "Take this and eat it, because this is my body." "Drink ye all of it, for this is my blood, blood of the covenant which is shed for many, for the forgiveness of sins." "I tell you," "I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you, in My Father's kingdom." "Damn, I can't burn it!" "Lord, I hope you understand." "Only you will know it's here." "Your ineptitude almost killed the Countess of Narbonne." "Señora, by God, I swear..." "You were warned not to uses nuts." "If she'd died, what position would that put me into?" "She's a good cook, ma'am." "She's never made a mistake before." "Take her." "Señora, please, if you want to punish her just fire her, but..." "And allow her to do the same in another house?" "I can't be so irresponsible." "Catalina, grab that hammer." "Señora, by God!" "Are you going to make me get it?" "Smash her hands." "No, no!" "No, no!" "His pupils don't react." "The pulse is stable." "Doctor... do you think he'll recover?" "It's in God's hands." "He may never wake up." "It was one of the risks of the operation." "Nuno, what is it?" "You can't be here." "Juan, let me in, I want to see him." "Nuno." "Juan, let me in." "This doesn't help anyone." "Juan, please let me see him." "Please." "Is he dead?" "No." "Is he going to be okay?" "I don't know." "Juan, please tell me the truth." "He may never wake up." "Now the important thing is that Gabi knows you're with him, that you're his friend." "Okay." "Wait a minute, okay?" "Look, feel it, it's silk just arrived from the East, señora." "The Queen has made an order to make... the bed clothes of the heir." "One of the prince's governesses, will leave the royal palace, next spring." "Their Majesties the Kings, seek a replacement thereafter." "You'll feel like a queen." "No, no, it's very expensive." "It's your colour." "It's your colour." "Thieves." "Thieves!" "Thieves!" "Thieves!" "Come on, let's go." "Son." "Gabi's brother should be fine wherever he is." "I'm not praying for that." "I'm praying for me, because I killed him." "Listen, you didn't kill him." "Gabi's brother was poisoned." "Yeah, but it was my fault, father, because I took the cup home, and it was the Holy Grail, father." "How do you know it's the Holy Grail?" "Sátur said that to Gabi." "Sátur." "Listen..." "I have to go." "It's very important not to tell anyone about this." "Right?" "It could be dangerous." "Okay." "Shouldn't you be with your wife?" "I didn't expect to find you here." "Actually, I didn't expect to see you anymore." "I was surprised to see you." "I was surprised to see you married." "I thought you loved God." "It's what you told me." "Right?" "Ah, no!" "You didn't even have the courage to tell me." "I'm sorry," "I had no choice but to follow my vocation." "Yeah, your vocation is ancient history." "I waited for hours by the lake." "I couldn't go." "But there was nothing I wanted more." "Are you done now with your excuses?" "If you don't mind, I have plenty to do." "You didn't have the guts." "You didn't really lose me." "Yes, I agree that the Marquise went too far on the punishment." "But these are very important things, they can't be forgotten." "Besides Marta warned the cook." "Because you warned the cook." "didn't you, Martha?" "Because you start thinking of boys and your mind flies to heaven." "I did, Catalina." "And she told me not to worry, that it was impossible to use them." "Poor thing." "I don't know how she'll manage to feed her family." "A widow with three children." "Hopefully she'll recover soon." "Marta, after what they did to her hands, she's not going to work for a long time." "Thank God that the Countess isn't dead, else by this time her children would be hanging in Justice Square." "Hello." "Hello." "Very good, Miguel." "I hope that the beans aren't as squashed as the last time." "The beans were great but this week I wasn't able to bring pine nuts, again." "What do you mean, "I wasn't able to bring pine nuts this week either"?" "Yes, last week you'd none left, and I didn't bring anymore." "And it's the same this week." "But, do you mean... that we've spent two weeks without nuts in the palace?" "That's how it is, gathering nuts." "They don't cater to our needs but to the sun and rain." "See you later." "But then, if there were no pine nuts," "Who put them in the stew?" "Come on." "It'll be hidden." "What are you lookin for?" "Where's the Holy Grail?" "Hey... enough!" "What's up?" "They're looking for the Holy Grail, Gonzalo." "Free her!" "Free her!" "Where do you keep the cup?" "I don't know what you're talking about." "Free her, please." "But your son, he certainly knows." "My son?" "What have you done to my son?" "Give us the Grail." "I told you, I don't know what you're talking about." "Please, where is my son?" "If tomorrow at noon you don't take the Grail to the Forest of Rye your son will die." "Señora Countess." "Here is what you requested." "If you don't need anything else we'll let you rest." "No, please." "This note is important." "Stay until I finish it." "Yes, ma'am." "Today I should be meeting with the attorney, but my husband insisted on resting due to the heat." "Well, he did very well, because with this hot wheater..." "I will donate the bulk of my fortune, to Hospice of San Miguel." "Send it as soon as possible." "Yes, ma'am." "By your leave." "I'm going to wash." "Here you go, ma'am." "Señora." "Margarita." "What is it?" "I hate to think it, but..." "What is it, Catalina, you're scaring me." "He wants to kill her." "Who wants to kill her?" "Her husband, Don Javier." "Oh dear!" "The nuts have made you sick, too. eh?" "He doesn't want to lose the money from this donation." "That's why he wanted to stop to rest here." "If they'd reached the attorney he couldn't have avoided it." "That's why he was in the kitchen." "Sir, do you want something?" "He had his hand in the pot." "There wasn't time to see him, but he was the one who put the nuts there." "You are raving." "The heat has gone to your head." "Heat my foot!" "Why, otherwise, would be a young man be with an old woman like that?" "For the money!" "Don Javier is a good man." "Yes, like everybody else in this world." "I have to tell the Marquise." "Catalina, wait." "She's out riding." "Don't do it, Catalina, it's a very serious accusation." "You know the trouble you could get into?" "Sátur!" "Sátur!" "Sátur!" "Come on." "Is he dead?" "No." "I came as soon as I could." "Is he alive?" "Is he alive?" "Nuno, answer me:" "is he alive?" "Nuno!" "Answer me." "Is he alive?" "Is he alive?" "Nuno... answer me." "It's as if he wasn't." "Señora..." "I came to tell you something." "I'm off on trip right now." "Help, please!" "Damn poachers, and the mother who bore them!" "Do You hear, up there?" "Be careful with the burn." "Be careful." "How dare you?" "Didn't they tell you I'm busy?" "Excuse me, Your Eminence, but the reason is of utmost importance." "All right." "Wait for me in my bedroom." "We've located the Holy Grail." "A teacher had it." "A teacher?" "I hope you're serious." "I'd never joke about something like this." "Give it to me." "Sorry, Your Eminence." "We went to the teacher's home but found no trace of the Grail." "Can it be that you don't know how to make a man talk?" "Of course I do, Your Eminence." "We have his son." "Tomorrow at noon, he will deliver the Holy Grail." "For your sake I hope so." "It was not easy, Eminence." "I hope you can thank me when you get to Rome." "I'll thank you when the Grail is my possession." "Off you go." "Is something wrong?" "No, nothing, sir." "I'm going off." "Warn the servants that we don't want to be disturbed under any circumstances." "Yes, sir." "May you rest." "Catalina, I thought you were gone already." "Margarita." "What?" "Don Javier is about to go into the Countess's bedroom." "Sure, it's his bedroom, too." "But he brought the letter opener." "Tell me who needs a letter opener this late." "Still the same old song?" "He may need to open letters..." "how should I know, Catalina?" "But let's consider it." "Don't you realize?" "Well, enough." "Drop it." "Since this man has set foot in this house, you have crucified him." "But Margarita...!" "He'll do it tonight." "This is his last chance before the donation." "Look here, Catalina." "Giving up the priesthood doesn't make him a murderer." "So let him be." "Mother." "Mother." "Murillo, son." "What are you doing here?" "How did you get here?" "Cipri brought me." "He's down in the cart." "What's happened?" "Alonso was kidnapped." "Drink the lime tea, it'll calme you down." "How can I calm down with just herbs, Catalina?" "It's already late." "If Sátur doesn't return tonight, then Alonso..." "Sátur must arrive soon." "Besides, Gonzalo's looking for him." "He doesn't just have to find him, Cipri, he must also bring the cup." "Damn it, I don't get it!" "Why on earth you had to take it?" "If something happened to Alonso, I'd die, Catalina." "I'm going to look for Sátur." "We're not achieving anything here." "Is he back?" "No." "Gonzalo!" "Gonzalo, wait!" "There's a lot of us." "I think together we can find Satur." "By this time it's probably no longer useful." "Sátur grabbed the cup to destroy it." "You know how easy it is to destroy a wooden cup." "Sátur's a believer." "Maybe he didn't." "If I show up without that cup, Alonso will be killed before I can do anything." "I must keep looking." "I won't stop until I find him." "Let me go with you." "No." "I'll go alone." "I tried to disrobe but someone prevented me from doing so." "If you really wanted you wouldn't let anybody stop you." "I would, if that someone is one of the most influential cardinals of the Church, in addition to being your uncle." "I'm a man, too, and I can understand the power of attraction of some women." "But you shouldn't allow a trifle like that... to disturb your vocation, my son." "You can take her to your service and make use of her as you please." "She's your niece, Eminence." "I have other plans for Irene." "and I won't allow a priest like you to spoil them." "But I'm an educated man, I can offer her a future." "Enough." "You'll never see her again." "You'll leave immediately to the monastery of San Martino in Sicily." "What if I refuse?" "Of course you can do it, but you should think about your family, rather than abandon them to their fate." "The fire's not only burn in hell." "My uncle wouldn't do that." "That's what happened." "I have no reason to lie to you." "Wait." "Any word on Margarita's nephew?" "No, daughter." "How can it be that they had the Holy Grail at home?" "Help!" "Please!" "I knew he was going to do it." "I knew it." "Master." "I almost didn't make it." "If it wasn't for the woodcutter..." "What did you do with the Grail?" "I know how important it is to you..." "What have you done with it?" "Sátur!" "Where's the grail?" "I don't have it." "I don't have it." "You don't know what you've done." "You condemned Alonso." "Why do you say that?" "You condemned him." "Alonso was kidnapped, Sátur." "What do you mean, Alonso was kidnapped?" "They ask the Grail in return." "Why did you take it?" "Why have you destroyed it?" "It's buried." "What have you done to him?" "Lucrecia..." "He came here on his own feet, and is now he's a vegetable." "What have you done to him?" "It's not definitive." "We have to wait to see how he reacts." "Wait?" "You came to here to convince me that with this operation he had possibilities." "Look at him!" "You are responsible for this." "I swear I've done everything possible." "But it wasn't much." "Senora Marquesa, the commissioner knew the risks of the operation." "I will not rest until you pay for it." "I myself will see that they cut off your hands so you don't kill anyone else." "Hernán's not dead." "Explain the difference, Juan." "I didn't do it." "I didn't kill her." "You're the only one who benefits from her death." "Let me go!" "Let go!" "Come on!" "What is it?" "Why are you taking him?" "Senora, senora!" "Do not approach him." "He's a murderer." "What are you saying, Catalina?" "He killed his wife." "No way." "Yes, ma'am." "Last night we saw him enter her bedroom with a letter opener." "He must have done it at night, the doctor said she died several hours before." "That's impossible." "Señora, I know it's difficult to believe, but there are people who'll do anything for money, and the Countess had a lot." "No, Catalina," "I'm sure that Javier didn't do it." "We've were together all night." "You said it was here." "Where?" "I followed the path to Bustarviejo, then into the forest and walked a while." "Please, try to remember, we have no time!" "I don't know where I buried it!" "Everything looks the same." "It could be anywhere." "Why the hell did you grab it, why?" "I'm sorry." "You are absolutely right." "I just don't learn." "I don't learn, master." "If something happens to your son, I'll kill myself." "I kill myself!" "I'm sorry Sátur." "Please try to remember." "I'd give the five fingers on my hand to know where it is, but I buried it so I wouldn't find it, nor anyone else." "Wait." "What?" "Behind those trees." "Do you hear?" "Yes, it's a river." "We have to cross it, it's on the other side." "Come on." "Let's go!" "Master, it's here." "It has to be here somewhere." "I'm sure it must be around here somewhere." "Think about it, ma'am." "You can still turn back." "I'm determined." "I'll tell the truth." "Do you know what they may do to you if you tell the truth?" "He's an innocent man, Catalina." "I won't allow it." "Señora, I wouldn't dispute that he's innocent." "But you can not imagine the future of a woman accused of... adultery." "When your husband learns that you spent the night with another man, the least he'll do is disgrace you." "I don't care what people think." "Señora, you didn't understood." "If your husband wants to..." "the law allows him to kill you." "I will face whatever comes." "Where is Javier?" "I don't know, ma'am." "Let her go, you bastard!" "Release her!" "Let her go!" "Release her!" "Why are you here?" "This is no place for you." "I need to talk to the lieutenant." "He's dealing with a detainee." "We'll wait." "It's not my cup of tea either, Antonia, but someone has to do it." "Drop it there." "Poor Countess, rest in peace." "You have to be heartless to kill her this way, in the very marriage bed." "Come on, grab those pillows." "Let's see how we managed now, blood is so hard to wash out." "No way." "You should get some rest." "Go out for some air." "It'll do you good." "I won't move from here." "You have to eat something, or at least drink something." "Leave me alone, please." "You're awake." "No way." "Do you see me?" "Do you see me?" "Who are you?" "I'm Lucrecia, the mother of your child." "Don't you recognize me?" "Rest." "Rest." "I hate you, I hate you." "I hate you." "I don't understand, Catalina, what are they doing to him?" "I don't know, ma'am, but in this place..." "Get there, you bastard!" "Javier, Javier!" "What are you doing here?" "I'll tell them you were with me last night." "They'll destroy your life." "I don't mind." "Señora." "Did you have something to tell me?" "Yes." "Do not, please." "Shut up." "It wasn't him!" "Catalina." "It wasn't him!" "Catalina, it wasn't him." "Marta?" "I found it in her bed." "She killed herself." "It's a confession by the Countess." "Release him." "She did it because of me." "Before going to see you, I talked to her and told her I was leaving her." "That's why she did it." "I was about to send a man to death." "And all for seeing things where there was nothing." "But it was all so clear:" "the letter opener, the pine nuts..." "Poor thing, feigning these attacks so that Javier would look after her." "You were going to sacrifice yourself for me?" "Señora..." "I've been informed that your husband... has fully recovered." "Thank you." "Señora." "The child, master, where's the kid?" "Now we'll find out." "Don't give them that until we have the boy." "Where is my son?" "Father." "Alonso." "Easy, son." "Master, I'll go with you." "Lest after you gave it them, they attempt to kill both of you." "No, Sátur, you stay here." "If they try, grab Alonso and take him away." "Master..." "Listen to me." "Forget about me and save Alonso." "Are you all right, son?" "Yes." "Alonso." "Father." "If it's not the real Grail, we know where to find you." "Let's go, these people don't seem to be very well in the head." "Sátur, you go on home with Alonso." "I'll take the opportunity to go and pick up a book nearby." "To pick up a book?" "Master, this is not time to run errands." "Leave it, I'll get it tomorrow." "Sátur, this is important, I have to go now." "Then go." "You're the master, you're the boss, but I don't agree." "Alonso..." "I'll be home in a while." "Don't worry." "Look at the notion this man has about books!" "What does he want with so much wisdom, that isn't going to fit in his head?" "Get him, come on!" "Kill him." "Get him." "Kill him." "Tell whoever pays you, that the Red Eagle has custody of the Holy Grail now." "Good night." "Are you leaving?" "Yes, I'm leaving town." "Margarita." "I can't imagine my life... not growing old by your side." "Stop it, Juan." "No, listen to me, listen to me." "Come with me." "Come with me." "Please come with me." "Good night." "He's leaving town." "How about dinner?" "Yes, of course." "I've taken steps to arrange your marriage... with the heiress of the Marquis of Uriarte." "You will increase your wealth, and you'll perpetuate your noble names." "I, King Philip IV." "Master, please, go to sleep, it's late." "Besides in bed you can keep thinking." "And I'll tell you something:" "the best ideas have come to me while sleeping." "Of course, in the morning, when I woke up, I didn't remember them, but..." "I have to know how my mother and the Holy Grail relate to each other." "Don't get upset, but this..." "Sátur." "May I know what this is doing here?" "Ah, of course!" "you didn't go to get the book!" "You went to retrieve the Grail." "So...how didn't I think of that?" "Boy, am I dumb!" "I don't know what to do next, Sátur." "I don't know." "Well, with all due respect, I do:" "hide this in the deepest, darkest place that comes to mind." "Maybe... in the ass of one of those pharaoh's from the pyramids." "What's that blood?" "It's nothing, Sátur." "Let me see." "What do you mean nothing?" "What?" "Master." "You may think I'm just ranting, but I think the Grail... is trying to tell us something." ""Balneum fides"." "The bath of faith." "What does that mean?" "But isn't the Grail supposed to be the end of our quest?" "It was a legend." "No, it can't be true." "What can't be true?" "Don't turn inward, when you do that, I don't find out about anything." "Legend has it that the Grail is the key to finding the treasure of the Templars." "Treasure?" "The Templars accumulated great wealth... with the intention of founding a new Church." "So we're rich." "No." "The treasure isn't important." "It's only important for me to find my mother." "Fine, Master, fine." "Let's make a deal." "You keep your mother, and I'll keep the treasure." "We're rich!" "Look, I was taken by surprise, and that's it." "Surprise my foot!" "I've seen you dodging bullets." "Holy Virgin!" "This is disgusting." "They've stolen a diamond from the English men, but it turns out to be the largest rough diamond ever found, and it was stolen by a Spaniard." "My hand!" "Do you know where the treasure is?" "The "Bath of faith" were some old Roman baths from 300 AD" "But it's the Marchesa!" "You're not welcome in the palace anymore." "Don't touch me ever again." "You and I are not related in any way, so you have no obligation to take care of me." "If only these walls could talk!" "Then they'd tell us what happened to the treasure." "Tell me where it is!"
