"How much further?" "What?" "To the place I'm looking for that I don't know where it is?" "It's hard to say." "This one's had a strop on since we left." "They came through here." "Well, obviously." "This takes us to the northern road." "Leads direct to Sanctuary." "Don't need to be a Huntsman to know that." "Hey, Nion, who am I?" "Ooh." "I'm talking to the dirt." "I hear it speak to me." "He's actually quite good at this, Gryff." "Get stuffed." "He's a buffoon." "Well..." "We ride north." "Actually, they headed west." "The northern road cuts through a plain." "Nowhere to take cover."

"You want gold, but all you're going to find out here is death." "(SCOFFS) A bit dramatic." "Dramatic, yeah, unless it's true, and then we should consider it an accurate warning, I think."

"Too little light." "(WHISTLING)" "Too much of this." "Yeah." "(LAUGHING) Come on." "Keep up." "Chilly with that door open." "ERIC:" "Pass me the..." "What?" "Yeah, some of the... (THUNDER RUMBLING)" "You three look like you're far from home." "Aye." "Just taking shelter, then moving on." "Are these your children?" "(CHUCKLES)" "The missus must be quite a looker." "That's a good one." "What he say?" "That's all right." "No." "No, I'm not having it." "(SHUSHING) Aye." "You ought to hold your tongue, mate, before you lose it." "Is that so?" "You know, if it was just me, I wouldn't be worried." "If it was me and him, I'd be a tiny bit worried, because he's a bit of a waster." "Not true." "But none of that matters, because we're with him." "And he will gut you like a deer quicker than you can blink." "Because this man here, this man is the Huntsman." "Is this true?" "Are you the Huntsman?" "That's me." "Well..." "The thing of it is..." "We're all Huntsmen." "I'm sorry." "It's all right." "(GRUNTING)" "Wait, wait, wait." "Can we not talk about this?" "You call yourself a Huntsman?" "I expected more from a man who had the courage to betray his queen." "And for what?" "For the love of some spineless woman?" "(GRUNTS)" "Maybe you were something in your day, brother, but that day is long gone." "Have you made your peace?" "(LAUGHS) I'll have it soon enough." "Tell Freya I died a free man."

"I saw you die." "This is not real." "This is not happening." "You're a ghost." "(CHUCKLES)" "Or else I'm..." "Or else I'm dead." "Am I not alive?" "You're alive." "Although, you should be dead." "You got hit on the head like, six..." "What do you think, six or seven?" "Seven." "Seven times." "A lot." "So this is..." "Real." "Very." "Did you think I'd forget?" "Did you think I'd forgive?" "Stand or fall, you said." "You'd never leave my side, you said." "You swore it." "And then you fled." "I see you fight, and I see you run." "No, Sara." "That's not what happened." "I saw Tull kill you." "I saw him kill you, with my own eyes." "I would never leave you." "But I saw you leave me, with my own eyes." "And you, of all people, should know" "Tull could never kill me." "Sara." "Don't." "I swear to you." "She put me in her dungeon." "For seven years." "And when I finally escaped, I swore I'd find you." "It's taken me a long time." "But here we are." "Husband and wife." "You honestly believe this?" "That I'd abandon you?" "Aye." "(GRUNTING)" "You still forget your balance." "(CHUCKLING)" "She's got another knife." "Yeah." "Yeah, I probably should have said something." "Mmm-hmm." "She's got two more little ones in her left boot." "It's no longer important."

"Don't you think that you and me have other things to discuss, like us?" "No." "What happens?" "She'd be unstoppable." "(WHISTLES)" "Where's my horse?" "I sent it off." "What did you do that for?" "No horses, no tracks." "We keep off the road, out of sight." "(CHUCKLES) So you're coming with me, then?" "No, you're coming with me." "Yeah, whatever you need to tell yourself, that's fine." "From what I can see, your wee band won't do too well without me." "Huh?" "No..." "SARA:" "Whatever power this mirror contains, I'll not let Freya wield it." "We'll find it, and we'll bring it to the Sanctuary." "And then you and I will part forever." "Now." "Tell me about this." "What do you think?" "About what?" "The woman." "Do you trust her?" "Well, I mean, I don't think we've got much of a choice." "Besides, she's pretty good in a scrap." "I imagine that would come in handy before too long." "We'll hit Callan Crossing by nightfall." "There's a market there." "They might have sold the Mirror." "Tracking never was one of your strengths, was it?" "I cannae wait to find out what yours is." "If an enemy uses diamonds for arrows," "I doubt they need to sell the Mirror for money." "Well, if you don't like my plan, you can piss off." "That is charming!" "And you can piss off, too, as you so eloquently put it, but that's not gonna get rid of me." "You're still my wife." "Look, we were deceived." "The ice wall that Freya put between us, she showed us what she wanted us to see." "Wait." "And what if I'm right?" "Do we not deserve that chance?" "It wouldn't matter." "You'd leave again." "We blind ourselves to the truth because we're weak, because we hope." "But there's no hope for love." "Love ends in betrayal." "Aye and always." "Well, I don't believe you." "(WHISTLES)" "Don't move." "Don't move." "(CLICKING TONGUE)" "Ooh. (CHUCKLES)" "That looks familiar." "Dwarf-made trap." "It's where I would've put it." "Yes, it'll take more than that to catch the likes of... (SCREAMING)" "No!" "No!" "(ALL EXCLAIMING)" "NION:" "Silly mope." "(BOTH GRUNTING)" "What?" "This was unexpected." "Oh, what?"

"Catch of the day, catch of the day." "(EXHALES)" "God, no." "Careful, sweetheart." "I wouldn't want to ruin that pretty little face of yours." "(CHUCKLES) Okay." "Oh, bugger me." "Oh, it's like that, is it?" "You don't even know us." "What do I need to know, you squat-faced little he-dwarves?" "Sight of you clots make me sick." "Shut your mouth, you manky slag." "Shut yours, you grotty wanker." "Kiss my arse, you filthy minger." "Kiss mine, you wobbly shite box." "(SPITS) (NION GROANS)" "Sorry." "Madam dwarf, we have no quarrel with you." "We seek a mirror."

"Personally, I'd like you to take your shirt off and prance around for me." "(CHUCKLES)" "But seeing as you're so modest," "I'll settle for every penny you've got." "Aye, so it's money you're after." "My apologies." "All I have is this." "You know what this is?" "It's a great big bloody diamond." "I'm not blind." "Where'd you get that?" "You let us down, and I'll tell you." "Doreena!" "DOREENA:" "Coming, Mrs. Bromwyn!" "Keep an eye on this lot." "Shoot the he-dwarves if they get mouthy." "Or if you just feel like it. (CHUCKLES)" "NION:" "You don't just cut it." "(ALL SCREAMING)" "(ALL GROANING)" "You thirsty?" "I could get you some water, if you'd like." "Oh, yeah." "Thank you." "I'd like that a lot." "Ah!" "I mean, nah, I don't want nothing from the likes of you." "All right, my little fishes." "I've got a little proposition for you." "Truce?" "GRYFF:" "Truce?" "When I get my hands around your lice-bitten neck..." "Yeah, yeah." "He's just..." "Truce." "Your diamond..." "You got it from a golden spear, right?" "Aye, I did." "Goblins." "Goblins?" "GRYFF:" "Goblins?" "(CHUCKLES)" "That old fishwives' tale." "You expect us to believe that?" "I expect you to stand there and look ugly and stupid, and say nothing else." "(CHUCKLES)" "Goblins is real." "Finest thieves in the world." "And greedy as the day is long." "We was trying to catch one." "Yeah." "You know, they say their armor is made of gold." "Where can we find them?" "Not far." "There's a hidden forest just up the Dorian River on the northwest side of the Sanctuary." "They say they keep all their treasure there in that wood." "Gold, silver, jewels, as far as the eye can see." "If your mirror is shiny, it'll be in there somewhere." "Can we access the Sanctuary from there?" "Dunno." "Maybe." "ERIC:" "Will you show us the way?" "Ah." "Well, you see, that's where the proposition comes in." "You see, no one's ever come out of them woods alive." "But you two big ones, you look like Huntsmen." "And Huntsmen are pretty handy with a blade, yeah?" "We all go in together." "You get your mirror." "And me and Doreena fill our pockets with as much loot as we can carry. (CHUCKLES)" "Deal?" "Aye, deal." "(LAUGHING)" "Right after I kill those two." "ERIC:" "What?" "No." "What?" "Hang on." "(SCOFFS) Why?" "I don't know." "I like them, I guess." "Oh." "Like a dwarf, do you?" "(CHUCKLES)" "(CHIRPING)" "(CHITTERING)" "GRYFF:" "So, Mrs. Bromwyn." "Where's Mr. Bromwyn?" "Dead, thank God." "How did he die?" "Gouging his own eyes out?" "Keep flapping your gob and you'll find out." "I'm sorry about before." "I would've drunk your water." "You seemed thirsty." "Yeah, I was." "I get thirsty sometimes if it's hot, or if I'm running." "Me, too!" "(LAUGHS)" "Or sometimes if I eat something really salty, like, um..." "Roast chicken." "Chicken." "I know why you're not talking." "Do you?" "Aye." "You noticed the sparks between me and Mrs. Bromwyn." "I don't know what to say." "She's my type." "Loud and angry?" "Well, it's what I'm used it, isn't it?" "I'm awfully sure you'll have a good life together." "Aye, we would." "But there's a problem." "Another woman." "Bit taller." "Not as pretty, mind you." "She sounds far too clever to waste her time with you." "Well, I remember that one time we were caught up in a net together." "This was a long, long time ago." "Are you not the hero of every story you tell?" "That's because I'm very brave." "Which is why I'm going to save you from drowning." "And how do you expect..."

(LAUGHS)" "Would you look at that?" "Harpy." "This one is called delphinium." "It's good for piles and toothache." "(CHUCKLES)" "What's this one called?" "Uh..." "That's just a flower." "I think it's beautiful." "I think you're beautiful." "Me?" "Yeah." "No." "(HISSING)" "If you're looking for gratitude, you have it." "Nothing more." "What exactly am I supposed to do?" "You think it's about you." "No." "What you should choose." "What you should do." "That I'm just waiting here for the man to pass a test." "And you did." "So now I have to love you." "But I don't." "I choose for me." "Not you." "So let me go." "I can't." "Stand or fall, I'll never leave you." "(GRUNTING) Let me go!" "Let me go." "Sara, stop it." "(BREATHING HEAVILY)" "The one you loved is dead." "I don't even remember what it feels like to be her." "We did not ask for our sins." "We did not ask for this life." "(CRYING) Eric, I've done terrible things." "Unforgivable things." "(IN SOFT VOICE) I know." "So have I." "Maybe you and me are not worthy of forgiveness." "That's for someone else to judge." "But we are worthy of each other." "(BIRDS CHIRPING)" "(WIND WHOOSHING)" "RAVENNA:" "Eric..." "Eric..." "Kill..." "Come closer..." "Closer." "Closer." "Kill..." "Kill..." "Kill..." "Yes." "Kill for me..." "What are you doing?" "(BREATHING HEAVILY)" "Have you been true?" "Eric." "My heart is yours, it always has been." "But if this is a game..." "End it now." "Have you been true?" "(CHITTERING)" "(HORSES APPROACHING)" "GRYFF:" "Huntsman, what is this?" "Stand tall, brother." "(HORSE NEIGHING)" "(ROARING)" "FREYA:" "Eric." "My Eric." "Your queen has missed you." "You're not my queen, Freya." "But I'm forever your queen." "Isn't that right, Sara?" "You see, you abandoned her, Eric." "But not I." "I raised her from despair." "Made her the point of my spear, my tempered steel." "She's laid waste to kingdoms and brought men such as you to their knees." "She's everything that you're not." "All I had to do was send her to you, and you led her straight to the Mirror." "It's pathetic." "(WHISPERS) Oh, what are these?" "Dwarves." "(LAUGHING) They're just like children." "We're mighty far from children, Bitch Queen." "Adorable." "Bring me the Mirror." "You'll have to kill me first!" "No, I won't." "NION:" "Doreena, no!" "You knew, didn't you?" "You knew she'd betray you and you spared her still." "Have you learnt my lesson at last?" "Harden your heart, Queen of Winter." "Bury the world in a tomb of ice." "It matters not." "Love will endure." "Yes, perhaps you're right." "Shall we find out?" "(IN SOFT VOICE) Kill him." "Is he dead?" "I think so." "What do we do?" "Pull it out." "Go on." "One, two..." "Quickly!" "(GRUNTS) (BOTH SCREAMING)" "Bloody hell, that hurt." "I don't believe it!" "She missed!" "She never misses." "MRS. BROMWYN:" "Have you lost your mind?" "She betrayed us." "Eric, she is not Cupid." "I doubt that an arrow to the chest is an expression of her love." "No, no, no." "There is a grand design at work here, friends." "And it grows even louder." "Head injury." "Number eight." "She never misses." "Look, I am twice as angry as you are." "Doreena was the only friend I had in this world, but you need to face facts." "Sara is not on your side." "I don't need you to believe what I believe." "What are these for, exactly?" "I'll give you a hint." "We're not gonna carry them on our backs. (CHUCKLING)" "So, what are you gonna do?" "Trek all the way to the frozen North?" "Face down an evil sorceress and her entire army?" "Aye." "All right, I'm in!" "Tull, put the dwarves in the gallery and bring the Mirror to my sanctum." "Welcome home, Sara." "RAVENNA:" "Freya." "Come to me." "Say the words." "Speak the words." "FREYA: "The age can be wicked" ""to those who walk alone." ""When I look into the Mirror," ""I see myself as I might become."" "RAVENNA:" "Yes." "Yes." "Mirror, Mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?" "(RUMBLING)" "Do not back away from me." "You asked a question." "The Mirror has answered." "Ravenna, how?" "Are you not dead?" "Yes." "No." "Something in between." "You've become quite literal, Freya." "Of all people, you should know that is but a vessel." "I left my body." "I went into the Mirror." "And there I stayed." "I became part of it." "Trapped." "Until you released me." "We have much to do, little sister." "With you and your army by my side," "I will regain my kingdom once more." "Snow White shall kneel before me." "(CLINKING)" "She will beg for mercy." "And then I'll tear her heart out." "MRS. BROMWYN:" "Oh, that's a bit bigger than I imagined." "GRYFF:" "So what's the plan?" "You have got a plan?" "Aye." "Is it any good?" "No." "But it's simple." "Freya will be in her sanctum, below the steeple." "I'll make my way down from the top, find her, and kill her." "What about Nion and Doreena?" "I've got someone on the inside who's gonna help me find them." "Who?" "You." "You have given my Huntsmen new orders." "Better orders." "We will attack tomorrow in two waves." "Flanking maneuver." "I presumed you would agree." "It's a far superior tactic." "This is my kingdom." "Did you say something?" "This is my kingdom!" "Of course it is." "And it always will be." "I would never question my sister's rule." "But beyond these walls is my kingdom." "My dominion." "Do not forget what you owe me." "I made you what you are." "MAN:" "Come on." "Move along." "Faster." "Follow your brother." "Look lively now." "You as well." "Go on." "Shut it." "Stop sniveling." "Twerp." "MRS. BROMWYN:" "Keep walking." "Just keep walking." "It's not my sister's fault, my lord." "She was hit in the face as a baby with a rock." "You two, come with me." "(GRUNTING)" "Did you have to hit him so hard?" "Shut up." "(GRUNTING)" "He's very heavy." "Right." "We stuff him in here, we cover our tracks." "That's very sloppy work, that is." "(GRUNTING)" "(EXHALING)" "(GRUNTING)" "(GROANS)" "(PANTING)" "(LAUGHING)" "This is the worst plan ever." "(GRUNTS)" "PIPPA:" "Stop." "You don't remember me, do you?" "No." "This is my war face." "Pippa." "I know why you're here." "Aim true." "My children." "This is the day for which..." "For which you were born." "You will face an army of men who have never lost a war, men who have..." "Who have forgotten... (CLEARS THROAT) ...what it means to be afraid." "We will bring fear once again to Snow White's army." "And their lands will be mine." "And their children..." "(WHISPERS) Their children..." "For I am queen." "(IN LOUD VOICE) I am queen." "This is what I trained you for." "This is why I raised you." "This is why I made you what you are." "Hello, Eric." "(EXHALES)" "I've missed you." "(GRUNTS)" "Guard!" "Why?" "RAVENNA:" "Why?" "They're in love." "(WHISPERS) They reek of it." "Is this not your kingdom?" "It is." "Do you not have laws?" "I do." "Then what is your judgment?" "Death." "RAVENNA:" "Mmm." "LEIFR:" "Traitors!" "ERIC:" "Traitors to who?" "Your old queen?" "Your new queen?" "You broke the law." "The law?" "Have you forgotten the ones who loved you?" "Your mothers, your fathers." "What law did they break?" "Love does not make you weak." "It's all that ever gave me strength." "Tull, have we not fought side by side?" "We were children!" "Brothers and sisters." "Did we not love each other?" "Fight with me." "If you die, you die for something that's yours." "Why do you turn away, Freya?" "You deceived us, and now you deceive yourself." "Silence." "Why did you not kill us back then?" "Instead, you break my heart and turn hers against me." "(GRUNTS)" "Pretty." "You see, Huntsman, love doesn't save your life." "I should know." "I've been dead before." "(LAUGHING)" "(GRUNTING)" "(PANTING)" "I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry." "Stand or fall." "Together." "(TULL GRUNTS)" "I stand with you." "MAN:" "Aye." "MEN:" "Aye." "Don't." "Stand back." "Nothing can save you, Huntsman." "All that's left is pain!" "(ALL GRUNTING)" "Ravenna, stop." "Stop!" "Enough!" "We can't leave the Mirror." "Then we climb." "I thought I had driven the weakness out of you." "I thought I made you strong." "But you're as pathetic as you ever were." "(GRUNTING)" "Have you lost your mind?" "How did you make me strong?" "How did you draw the weakness out?" "What did you do?" "What did you do?" "I don't have to tell you anything." "Oh." "Oh, but you do." "You see, you said it yourself, you're something between this world and the Mirror." "I summoned you out." "Now you are bound to me!" "(GASPS)" "Tell me the truth." "Mirror, Mirror on the wall who is the fairest of them all?" "You are, my queen." "But not for long." "Your sister holds a baby to her breast." "A daughter." "She will grow to be more beautiful than even you." "You cannot ask such a thing of me." "I ask nothing." "I am but a reflection." "And you..." "You have already decided." "RAVENNA:" "Kill." "Kill." "Kill for me." "(SOBBING)" "(BREATHING HEAVILY)" "Yeah, I loved her." "I loved you." "That's why I'm stronger than you." "(GRUNTS)" "(ALL SCREAMING)" "(GRUNTING)" "Leave my children alone!" "(GROANS)" "(GROANS)" "(GROANS)" "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry" "I killed your daughter and released the greatest power within you." "A power you have wasted on nothing but cheap sentiment!" "(GRUNTS)" "Did you not think I wanted a child?" "Did you not think I wanted love?" "But these things were not meant for me." "I have a higher calling!" "Do you still believe that love conquers all?" "Maybe not all." "Just you." "Are you ready, Huntsman?" "Aye." "(YELLING)" "(GROANS)" "(YELLS)" "(GROANS)" "(SCREAMING)" "(SOBBING WEAKLY)" "(GRUNTING)" "(PANTING)" "(WHISPERING) How lucky you are." "Come on." "Freed." "(ALL COUGHING)" "I'm all right." "(LAUGHING)" "Are you all right?" "Are you all right?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "(CHILDREN LAUGHING)" "BOY:" "Yeah!" "Hey look, the sun!" "NARRATOR:" "Once upon a time there lived a beautiful queen whose heart was broken in two." "But even buried under ice and snow, love survives." "(LAUGHS)" "(CHUCKLES)" "Not on your life." "Fine, fine." "(SIGHS)" "You're gonna give up that easily?" "God, you're stupid." "(GRUNTS)" "(CHUCKLES)" "NARRATOR:" "The lands of the North were free and Snow White's kingdom was safe from harm."
