"Good work." "Customers who ordered the assault," "Luis de Alquézar and Emilio Bocanegra." "Apparently some people think that your spiritual exaltation borders on heresy." "Take her." "Have you seen my sister?" "And what would have San Pedro given to alleviate the suffering of his master?" "Anything." "Who was that?" " No one." "We have abducted the niece of a royal secretary." "Release the boy." "Alatriste." "Guards to me!" " One moment, Your Majesty." "We're at peace." "We must do everything possible to bring that boy to the Catholic faith" "Body, the body." "To the body!" "Not to the sword." "The sword is not made for hands as delicate as yours." "I have told you already, it's all for a comedy." "In this comedy, tell me, who do you interpret?" "Perhaps an Amazon?" "Or one pretending to be a knight?" "That's my business." "In that case, guard yourself." "Episode 3:" "In the Service of His Majesty" "Excellency." " Ambassador." "I hope that your stay in our court continues to be agreeable." "It does, thanks to the attentions of His Majesty, King Philip." "Did you enjoy the bulls in the square?" "The Duke of Maquera is a magnificent bullfighter." "Very much so, yes." "But I would prefer that Prince Charles could meet his fiancee in person." "I hope that that is the reason you summoned me." "I would love to, but the protocol..." " Oh, yes." "The protocol of the house of Austria." "Protocol is everything in this court." "Everything will come, believe me." "At the moment decorum imposes that we wait a little more." "Can I know then why you sent for me?" "The king has decided to hold a theological board." "Tomorrow, learned teachers of the Church and the University of Alcalá will meet with Prince Charles and Your Excellency to discuss our differences in matters of faith." "I am delighted with the provision of the kings to have dialogue." "Dialogue?" "My lord would like Prince Charles to discover the virtues of the Church of Rome and embrace our faith." "That's impossible." "Charles Stuart will someday be the head of the Church of England." "Who knows." "Maybe Prince Charles could receive enlightenment." "And it goes without saying that his conversion would clear the way to the altar, at the hand of the princess, and a prosperous partnership." "If it is the desire of the king we will gladly attend." "Do you really believe that Prince Charles will renounce his faith?" "Nothing but distractions, James." "Meanwhile, it pleases the king to make us lose time and patience." "Hopefully the wind will not affect the accuracy." "Well?" "Magnificent weapon." "Could not we test it on a hunt?" "A deer, boar, whatever." "I'll see what I can do." "The gentleman you expected has arrived." "Excuse me." "Captain." " Excellency." "I have a job for you." "The young Prince Charles is hard to entertain." "He's impetuous and wants to walk through Madrid discreetly but also with freedom." "He still hasn't learned that Madrid is dangerous?" "Diego, like it or not the Prince will do what he wants." "Show him the city." "Accompany him wherever he wants to go." "The only thing that should matter to you is that he arrives safely at his embassy." "I've given my commitment to the Duke of Buckingham." "You place much trust in only one sword." "You are more than a single sword." "Guard yourself." "Again." "If this sword had an edge, you would now be the most wonderful of corpses." "Bravo, I like it!" "The beautiful corpse." "If you've composed a few versus already we already have an appetizer." "Master Cózar, less flattering and more wine." "En guard." "Lady, I surrender." "Woman, you have exhausted the poet." "María, for a comedy: would it not be enough to coordinate a few thrusts?" "It has to look real." "Don Francisco, can teach me how to handle a sword or should I seek another teacher?" "You called, oh, beauty, at my door," "Who could resist?" "En guard." "Shouldn't you put down the drink first?" "Why don't you try take it from me?" "Almost." "Why don't you come back to bed?" "It's cold." "I need to think." "Playing chess?" "Why not?" "Haven't you realized yet that politics is a lot like chess?" "Let me explain." "Imagine that the white pieces are France." "This, for example, could be that idiot ... ." "The favorite of the king." "For a short time." "And here's the king, our beloved Luis XIII." "If you look, he's slow, clumsy, he's insecure but indispensable." "We can not let him die." "What about this?" "Is it the queen?" "Exactly." "Ravenous, quick, lethal." "And dangerous." "I do not advise that you fall out with our beloved Queen Mother." "She would devour you." "Eminence." "Come in." "It's getting late for Mass." "And the black, who are they?" "Spain." "Who, if not, is our enemy?" "Now they feel powerful, think they can win the game, but in chess, dear cousin, sometimes looks can be deceiving." "Appearances say that there will soon be a wedding linking Spain with England." "Do you believe that?" " I have information that King James wants to accelerate the link." "The very Catholic Habsburg dynasty marrying one of his infantas to a heretic prince?" "Politics makes strange bedfellows." "You are very clever, Madame de Brissac." "Keep me informed." "Eminence, you have not answered my question." "Which piece are you in this game?" "Me?" "None." "I am the Cardinal Richelieu." "I play the game." "So as not to draw attention in front of others" "I'll call your Highness "Carlos", if it does not offend you." "Carlos?" "Yeah, yeah, okay." "I imagine you want to go to the main square." "Or to the Sotillos opposite the bridge of Segovia, but I advise against the crowded places." "Jerónimas." "Excuse me?" "Jerónimas Monastery." "Do you want to go to the monastery of Jeronimas?" "But you can't enter, it's a cloistered convent." "Jerónimas." "As you please." "Follow me." "Tell me, did you have such a large market in Oñate?" " No." "And if we did I neither saw it nor went there." "So you did not carry for your mother?" " No." "Since having you at home I don't need to pay any of these to help me." "Half are hoping that you should give them work so they can run away with the food." "Hello, Francisco." "Hello, Charity." "What can I get you today?" "See." "What?" "To me justice!" "Thief!" "He's escaping!" " Iñigo?" "Iñigo!" "Jerónimas?" " Yep." "Are you sure you want to go in there?" "Yes, yes, of course." "No door." "Around here." "Where are you?" "Hold it there." "I am going to teach you to rob a Guzmán and Rivas." "Do you believe that you are going to escape?" "Stay." "Don't move or I denounce you, scoundrel." "Lord, have mercy." " Damn!" "Turns out you're not mute." "Anyway..." "Ah!" "A she-mute." "Dressing like a man is a crime punishable by death." "Didn't you know?" " Now!" "Let's go." "Wait, the money." "Thank you, Your Highness." "The Queen is so beautiful!" "Your queen is still an Infanta of Spain." "To be here is not funny at all!" "Gorgeous." "Very much." "Now let's go." "Yes, we will." "What are you doing?" " You said let's go." "Take those two." "You, with me." "Palace Guadalmedina." "See you there." "Okay." "Isn't he the most gallant of the gentlemen?" "Yes, Your Highness." "Highness!" "Stop, in the name of the king." "Drop the pike." "Take him prisoner." "Hello, Charity." " Good Morning." "Where's Iñigo?" "That damned kid, when I get my hands on him he's going to learn." "But we agreed we're starting today with Latin!" "All I can offer is a pint of wine." "Well, whatever." "Charity, is the captain here?" "The captain never is." "Almost better." " Why?" "For a long time I've wanted to talk to you about an important issue." "Charity, you know that the captain and you live in sin?" "I'm worried about you." "This cohabitation is serious." "Don't worry about us, between the captain and me things are as they are." "I want to know whether you are willing to take the holy sacrament of marriage." "Would that stop other women from getting into his bed?" "Or change things when he goes on campaign?" "Seriously, what would be the point?" "Devils!" "Of what use, says the woman..." "Well, to begin with, so that you do not finish up in hell." "Does that seem small to you?" "Hell, you say?" "There I've already been, father, before I met the captain." "He knows perfectly well what I was devoting myself to and does not hold it against me." "So if I know anything, it's a little about hell and how to get out of it." "As for my dealings with God, I take good account of the charities that I do." "When I die I hope to leave a good amount for masses." "Charity for the masses is of little service for the contemptuous and unrepentant, Lebrijana." "Basics, father, the captain is not a man to be tied to anything or anyone." "What I want to know is if you're willing." "Because if you're ready, I'll take on the chore of talking to the captain." "Do you really intend to do that?" "Yes." "Do what you have to do but choose your words." "With cassock or without cassock the man has not been born who can point the finger at Diego Alatriste and live to tell the tale." "Charity will kill me." " Why did you help me?" "I don't know, I saw and ran behind you." "Want to share the money?" "Is that it?" " No." "If you don't tell anyone I'm a girl I'll give you the whole bag." "I won't tell anyone and I don't want your money." "Why?" "That toff was a pig." "Good enough?" "Also, if you hadn't stopped to stare at me" "He wouldn't have even realized that you had stolen." "You're very good." "I am the best pickpocket of the city." "Want me to show you?" "No thanks, I want to be a soldier." "You're the one who stole the apple." "We were going to give you a drubbing but then the Italian came." "Yes." " You want this?" " Where did you get it?" "The stall that we just passed." "What is your name really?" " Dorotea." "My name..." " Iñigo." "I already knew." "With your liking of kidnapping and tying maidens, tell me:" "How do you feel now?" "As for Prince Charles, to assault a convent is a serious crime, even for him." "Do you know, by chance, where he is?" "So you haven't caught him?" "No." "But Madrid is a very small place." "Enjoy the chains." "Guard." "This man refuses to apologize to the Infanta." "He says he cares not a fig for the king and his house." "The body, body, body." "All Right." "The body, the body." "All Right!" "Well, well." "Have they ever said to you that you are tireless?" "With a sword in hand no, that's for sure." "Shut up, Rafael." "En guard." "Not bad, not bad, but the anger blinds you." "Why so much anger?" " That's my business." "This has nothing to do with any comedy, right?" "Shut up, I said." " No, I demand to know the truth." "What are you hiding from me?" " Enough." "María, what have you done?" "Nothing." "Has she done anything?" " Forgive me, Don Francisco." "Why forgive, if you have not done anything?" "I don't know if you understand me, maestro Cózar." "This has not happened." "If word of this gets out of here" "I will return and thread you like an olive." "Of course, here there has been no wound." "Good." "Lady." "My lips are sealed." "Let it not be said that Francisco de Quevedo was wounded by a woman." "Thanks." "Why are standing there without bringing more wine?" "Yes, Don Francisco, wine to wash the wound." "To wash the wound." "And my pride too." "And so you are similar to a sword, you are more deadly naked than dressed." "Enter." "I have to talk to the Count of Guadalmedina." "Yes, you already told us." "The Count must be told I'm here." "Send the message and I know he'll reward you." "For now you'll stay here until we know what to do with you." "Well, what has happened?" "Prince Charles broke into the convent of Jerónimas while we distributed food to the poor." "Insolent!" "The guard tried to capture him but he fled with the help of one of his accomplices that we have been able to apprehend, this Captain Alatriste." "Do they have the captain?" " Yes." "Yes, dear uncle." "He's still in the convent, well guarded." "Well, okay." "I'll call the captain of the guard." "Being a convent," "I wonder what will be the opinion of His Grace, the Lord Inquisitor on this matter." "Bocanegra?" "I don't think it will sit well with him." "Better tell him before anyone else." "Surely he'll appreciate your loyalty." "Was there someone else?" "When this captain interposes" "Guadalmedina is usually not very far away." "No, I'd say the two were alone." "Pity." "Yes." "And I suppose that at the moment the prince walks alone through the streets of Madrid." "The Prince alone?" " And in a strange city." "It's our opportunity to intercept him before he gets to the British embassy." "What's the matter, Angelica?" "Nothing, dear uncle," "It's just that with seeing that Captain Alatriste again," "I remembered when I was held at his whim." "My dear girl!" "He will pay dearly." "I will personally ensure that he will undergo torment." "And you say that it was a poet who injured you?" "One no, three." "No, sorry four." "And all poets?" "Yes, all poets." "There was a moment in which I was surrounded and they attacked me treacherously." "With swords or with feathers?" "With swords, Copons, with swords, and daggers, and knives." "I even thought one intended to use a gun." "Anyone would think that it was a banner of the Third." "Is it that you doubt what I tell you?" "God forbid, don Francisco!" "I don't understand." "Why did the brawl start?" "Why?" "Because they wrote stinking farts instead of verses, like their master Góngora." "Does it seem small to you?" "Reason enough." "You must soothe your temper." "And you must bring more wine now I am dry, Lebrijana." "I will." "Other times, her hands forming a cross, she extended them for a long while over the flames of the candle, and she even used to pick up burning coals bare handed." "It came to pass, that as the wounded patient..." " Enough." "I can't stand so much pointless suffering." "Does not it encourage you to listen to the life of Ann Teresa of Los Angeles?" "No, it does not calm me." "I don't feel at ease." "I am restless." "Because of your prince, Your Highness?" "He is impertinent and foolish." "Such nonsense, to show up that way in a convent." "We have scarcely met, and only from afar." "Excuse me, signorina." "Palace Guantalamina?" "Shameless!" "Do not speak to him, señorita." "Look at this." "He seems to be lost." "It seems to me that we have work." "What may this man want?" "Can you tell me?" "To know you better." " Without having been presented officially." "He's crazy." " Luisa!" "He is a prince." "Sorry, Highness." "His boldness is due to ignorance of the customs of our court." "And the love that he professes." "Angelica, please." "Sir, stop." "Whoa!" "Get out of the way." "Basque, to serve your worship." "What did you say, boy?" "Why do you talk so weird?" "He's surely from Flanders." "Where's Guantalamidana palace?" "Yeah, yeah, whatever you say." " Yep?" "Ah, what a stink!" " You can't go to the palace like this." "Water." "Yes, water, water, lots of water." "Let's take him to our well." "Come with us, sir." " Yes, thank you." "Maybe I should warn him, recommend caution." "What if you write to him?" "I could convey your letter." "Writing material." "Quickly." "I'll tell him to be less impulsive." " He is, very much." "Because he can be, Luisa." "He is a Prince, heir to a throne." "And he does so because he is in love with her Highness." "I might say to him that I wait, thrilled for the moment we meet." "That's very nice, Highness." "It's a tremendous nonsense." "I am an Infanta of Spain." "Write, Luisa." "Here's the well." "Ah, water, yes, yes, yes!" "Wash, sir." "Higher." "Bring him down." "Look, what a ring!" "Here's another." "It looks good." "Let me see." "Highness, your boldness bothers me." "No, wait." "Too severe?" "And if he thinks that you do not feel anything for him?" "What do you feel?" "Write this." "Highness, contain your passion for me." "No." "Highness, your insanity leads to mine." "No, no!" "How I can say that?" "What if we called Quevedo?" "And if you say simply:" "highness, your daring moves me but remember our position." "That's it." "Have you written it, Luisa?" " Yes, ma'am." "Angelica, do get this letter to that crazy English prince." "Remember, you are taking my heart in it." "Don't worry, so I will." "Highness." "Continue reading, Luisa." "hands extended too long in the flames of the lamp, and she even used to pick up burning coals bare handed." "It came to pass, that as the wounded patient, blood pouring from wounds and hoping that in her body they should not appear..." "Let's throw him in the well." "Hey, bastards!" "Are they swine, to throw another corpse in the well!" "Then no one can drink the water!" "And what do I care?" " Mind your own affairs, whores." "Whores?" "If so, who do you think was your mother?" "Hey, I know who you are, Raspas!" "You'll see when I tell Fierro." "These are Fierro's whores?" "Yes, both." "I don't want problems with that bastard." "Let's go." "What now, eh?" "Where are you going?" "Are you not so brave?" "Stay here, wait till closing, and tell him how brave you are." "What a pity, so handsome he was!" "He seems more asleep than dead." "Like an angel." "Eh!" "He is not dead." "By the way, what about the boy?" "I know nothing of the captain or the brat." "Of anyone." "Diego went to the palace of Guadalmedina." "You know, Count's business." "I say that one way or another we soldiers have to earn a living." "Couldn't it be done some way that doesn't always have me on tenterhooks?" "Then he would not be the captain." "God save you." "And to you the devil, father." "Oh, no, no, wet the gullet, if you see such!" "In the tavern of San Ginés they're not talking about anything else." "Apparently while the Infanta was doing a charity in Jerónimas two bravos have entered the convent." "Bravo for them!" "May they hang them and skin them." "Well, not so fast, don Francisco, one of the chickens is the English prince." "It is said that he longed to see the Infanta and people have taken it as a very gallant act." "Very gallant and very foolish, as is usual for him." "Some are lucky." "Ay...!" "Is something wrong?" "I know one of the chaplains of Jerónimas who was present when it happened and tells me that the prince escaped because his companion covered his escape." "And that companion is..." " Diego Alatriste y Tenorio." "Up." "Come on." "Get up, I said." "Lately you don't stop crossing my path, Alatriste." "You know the seriousness of the charges against you, right?" "To violate the sacred cloister of a convent is sacrilege." "That puts you within walking distance of exile, flogging, galleys, or the stake, let alone your attempt on the life of the Infanta." "I have not done that." " That I will decide in due time." "What do you want from me?" "Your help." "You heard right." "You see, I know those of your ilk, stubborn and proud soldiers." "You can break their bones but not their will." "Not even the fear of hell bends you," "Perhaps because you are already there without remedy." "I'm trying to be magnanimous." "What do you offer?" "Your life in exchange for a confession." "Confess in court or before the king, if necessary, that you came into this sacred enclosure bound by the heretic Prince to steal a sacred image of the Virgin venerated by our Infanta." "Why would the Prince want the Virgin?" "To do with it what would only occur to a heretic, desecrate the image, or burn it in front of the Infanta trusting that this way the Infanta would turn to his deviant heresy." "Monstrosities like that have happened over and over again in his kingdom." "And if I do not confess?" "I feel for this woman with whom you are cohabiting." "What is her name?" "Lebrijana?" "Or for your friend don Francisco, or for anyone whom you love in this world." "Tomorrow morning you will be transferred to a prison of the Holy Office." "Once you enter there you will only leave as a corpse." "I assure you." "You have this night to think and to write a full-fledged confession." "Wake." "Where am I now?" "Who are you, lady?" "The blow has affected his mind." " What if he is possessed?" "Come off it!" "With these clothes this has to be a foreigner," "French or something, sure." "You have to take him home." "Don't you start with your works of mercy." "Think about Fierro." "But he's so beautiful!" "Look at his waist!" "And what hands, look!" "Look at his hands!" "He has never worked in his life." "What have you learned?" "The prince has not returned to the British Embassy." "My men are still stationed there in case he appears." "The English is a stranger in Madrid, he has nowhere to go." "I have also men in the palace of Guadalmedina." "Nothing." "We must find him." "We will never again have him so much in our power." "As for..." " That scum is in a safe place." "I've arranged to move him tomorrow to the palace of the Holy Office." "I see the adventures of the captain have come to an end." "As for any enemy of the Church." "Keep me informed." "Good shot!" " Duke." " Excellency." " A game?" "Excellency." "I remind you that the theological board will convene tomorrow after church." "After our Mass, I mean." "We will be there." "Our lord the king will be pleased to learn it." "I am glad that your king will be pleased." "As for ours, I doubt that he would be." "And I would be grateful if your excellency does not comment anything about it to his ambassador in London." "In a negotiation all should give a little." "Do you consider that converting the Prince of Wales future head of the Anglican Church to your religion is to give a little?" "I ask for collaboration." "Like me, it must not have escaped His Excellency how difficult it will be to marry the interests of our two kingdoms." "It's why I have traveled to Spain, to accelerate negotiations." "Accelerate?" "I already mentioned, Duke, in Spain we do not like the rush." "Yes, yes, I'm learning that." "I must assume that your excellency has an idea" "To facilitate negotiations." "As soon as the papal bull arrives it would help a lot if the good King James publicly affirms that the pope is the supreme authority on earth after Christ." "Would you have my head cut off upon my return to London?" "By God, no!" "I know how fond of beheading you are in England, but that's not what I want for your excellency." "No." "It is inadmissible from any point of view." "I've talked about how important it is to yield in any negotiation." "I think, my dear Count, that you value little the strength of our faith." "Think about it carefully." "Ponder it." "It would be only a gesture." "And the prince?" "I thought he was with your excellency." "Me?" " Or the Count of Guadalmedina, visiting the town." " Yes, they are together." "It will soon be dark." "It would be desirable that they return to the palace." "They're having fun..." "So much to see in Madrid!" "Another game?" "Here it is." "Come on." "This is where we all live." "We call it the brotherhood." "Cross yourself." " My turn." "Hello, Mudo." "You wanted me, Your Highness?" "Count Duke..." "Excuse me..." "You don't have reason to apologize." "We are aware of the weight on your shoulders and on those of my brother." "Well said, Highness." "Our King Philip does not stop for even one second worrying about our kingdom." "What did you wish of me?" "I just wanted to ask if you would ask my brother to be tolerant with Prince Charles." "Tolerant?" " Yes, you know, for his daring this morning." "His entrance into the convent of Jerónimas was not good." "But for my part I do not hold grudges." "Although logically he must sooner or later assimilate the customs of our court." "Logically." "I imagine that you have confined him to his embassy." "You imagine well." "That was all." "At your feet, Highness." "Go and tell the Count of Guadalmedina to present immediately at the Citadel." "Here." "I stole this from the fat one." "He always has something hidden." "How do you manage to fool everyone?" "I never take my hat off and never speak." "Believe me, it isn't easy at all." "Won't you eat?" "Come on." "Do you want to stay here tonight?" "Mudo." "We've been told that you have brought a new one." "What's he doing here?" "Friend?" "Since when is he our friend?" " Exactly." "So now you steal bags?" " It was him." "I only helped him get rid of the owner of the bag." "Is that true?" "We have taken one to the well." "No biggy." "Come on, come on." "Raspas." "How handsome you are!" "So beautiful." "How little I understand you!" "I once had a German friend, very generous." "He gave me a medal and an infection." "Here it is." "You like it?" " Yes." "Nice one." "The medal or me?" "I should be working, not here wasting my time with you." "What?" " I want to confess." " What did you say?" "The Inquisitor wants me to make a full confession, in writing." "I need pen and paper." "How long do we have?" "Buckingham will already be disturbed by the absence of Prince Charles." "Even assuming that he had visited a brothel he should be back at the embassy by dawn, and we simply do not know where he is." "The heir to the English throne alone and lost in Madrid." "We'll be lucky if he is not floating in the Manzanares." "I will make you directly responsible for what happens, Álvaro de la Marca." "I just followed the instructions of Prince Charles." "I know, but someone will have to be held responsible." "Don't you think?" "The first thing is to snatch the captain from the hands of Bocanegra." "That card shouldn't be in his hands." "Do you agree?" "Completely, excellence." "Don Francisco, go immediately to Jerónimas." "You'll take gold and a signed letter in my handwriting." "Use it only if gold fails." "We want the utmost discretion in this matter." " So be it." "I'll deploy men all over Madrid and if that prince is still alive and in one piece" "I'll take care of him from now on." "(Commercial break)" "The tavern is closed." "I just want some wine." "It's been a long night." "A little wine and you'll leave." "If you are looking for the captain, he's not here." "But he'll soon return." "I assure you." " What if I'm not looking for him?" "I'm looking for a friend of the captain, an Englishman." "He's lost out there and does not know many people in court." "I thought perhaps he hides here." "I don't know what you mean." "I don't hide anyone here." "As for the captain, I would not be so sure of seeing him again." "What have you done?" "Me, nothing." "He is a prisoner of the Inquisition." "Are you finished?" "Is it that there is no patience for a man who is writing his own death sentence?" "Who's there?" "You?" " Diego." "I came to save your life, but I see that it is not necessary." "Who sent you?" "The Count Duke himself." "Prince Charles is still missing." "Come on, the guard is about to arrive." "Why aren't you working?" "Picking up trash in the street again?" "I'll show you who's boss." "Please, no!" " You'll get yours." "It's a shame you do not want anyone to know you're a girl." "Why?" " Because you're beautiful." "I don't want to be beautiful, that just makes you good for one thing." "You can't live like this forever." "Why not?" "When I have enough money I'll go to Sevilla." "And on to Peru." "Or to Mexico." "The Americas are so big and so wild you can have whole beaches and jungles in which to be alone." "Would you like to come with me?" "I can not." "I'm going to be a soldier." "I'll go with the Captain to Flanders." "Sodomites!" "Lazillo, Manco!" "So you're a faggot, eh, Mudo?" "He's not." " You shut up." " No, you shut up." "The mute speaks!" " Yes, idiot." "My name is Dorotea." "But it's a girl!" "Much better, compadres, we'll make more with a whore than with a pickpocket." "Stop!" "Beware!" " Don't you dare touch her." "Grab the whore." "Come on!" "Don't you dare touch her." " Now you'll see, we'll kill you." "If I catch you, you'll see." " Come, Iñigo, over here." "Be prepared!" " Trust me." " Get him!" "Don't let them escape!" " Come on!" "You have to keep him here until Fierro's men come, if we let him go we'll all pay for it." "I'm a knight." " Yes, you are, but those who come are not, they're ruffians of the worst kind." "If only we could tell someone..." "I'm a friend of the Captain." "Some captain..." "So many of them visit here!" "The Count Guadalamida." " Guadalmedina?" "Do you mean Guadalmedina?" "Yes, yes, yes, Guadalamina." "Come in." "Captain, good to see you." "Although I am surprised that a few coins or a simple letter from the Count Duke have served to get rid of the Inquisition." "I released myself." " That's true." "I'm very disappointed with your services on this subject, Diego." "Frankly you have made me look ridiculous in front of the Count Duke, not to mention the possible consequences if anything happens to Prince Charles." "But luckily I know where he is, he's in the brothel in Luzon Street." "The girl outside will accompany you to the place." "Fuck the man who trusts whores." "The whole town and court looking for him and he is romping in a brothel." "No, Quevedo, no, apparently he is in trouble." "We must act quickly and discreetly." "How many men do you need?" "Someone to drive a carriage is enough for us." "Take the prince safely to the British Embassy." "Forgive me." "Reasons of State." "It's late." "I should be home." "Want me to accompany you?" "You know it's not necessary." "Who dares to disturb the Inquisition?" "I have to speak to Brother Emilio Bocanegra." "A woman, and at this hour?" "My name is María de Castro, and I bring him news of someone that his grace is looking for all over Madrid." "Captain." "Lord." " You see this..." " Dagger, sir." "I killed a man with a dagger, Captain." "Many swords come to kill you." "Yes, oh yes." "But now my sword and the sword of Captain." "Yes, now you have my sword, sir." "What?" " They're coming across the square." "There are many." "Change of plans." "Five silver coins to the first one to hole his belly." "Tough guy!" "But..." "Come on." "Whoa!" " Francisco." "How are you, friend?" "They're escaping!" "Quick!" "You must go to the Turkish inn." "There you'll be safe." "Safe tonight." "But then what?" "What about tomorrow?" "Tomorrow I'll go to Sevilla." "If the devil is on my side in a few months I could raise money for the next galleon." "For us both." "Both?" " Why Not?" "That captain is not even your father." "To him you're just another mouth to feed." "If he doesn't get rid of you today, he will tomorrow." "Nothing binds you here, Iñigo." "Want to be a soldier?" "In India you can have all the battles you want." "The difference is that there, a soldier can become a king." "There you own everything that you conquer with your sword." "Will you come with me, please?" "(Commercial break)" "Whoa!" "Kill them." "We have no choice but to cross swords." "Sword, a sword!" "Protect yourself!" "Quick!" "Malatesta." "Prince!" "Don't get out, by God!" "You and I have a debt." "Don Francisco, we have no choice but to leave." "What do you think I'm trying to do?" "Get up, Prince, by God!" "Malatesta!" "I owe you!" "Whoa!" "I was very concerned for his excellency." "If I'd known that Madrid is such an entertaining city," "I'd have come much earlier." "Excellency." "Captain." "Captain." "Ah, thank you!" "More tomorrow." "Goodbye." "Vow to God, no." " You've got to admit that the bastard is brave." "Brave and irresponsible." "Because today he would have gone too far." "This is... nothing, an unimportant duel that is not going to prevent me from fulfilling a commitment to a beautiful lady." "What lady?" "An actress." "María de Castro." "Who needed to learn fencing for a comedy, and you already know how the comics are, since I..." "And this wound had nothing to do with this lady?" "An Italian came tonight saying that you were in the hands of the Inquisition." "I was." "Is there no way to live in peace with you?" "Is this how you fix everything?" "And Iñigo?" "Iñigo..." "That kid is another toothache." "What has he done?" "Disappeared all day and returned at dawn with another lad." "A friend, he says." "I hope this will not fill us up with apprentices." "Her name is Dorotea but she's posing as a boy." "And you know what that may cost her?" "We met in the market." "She was stealing a bag of coins." "I'll bet she does it well," "And also is willing to teach the craft." "She wants me to go with her to Sevilla." "I do not want to, captain," "I want to stay here and be a soldier, like my father." "I do not want you to end up like him." "Nor like me." "Somehow we must get that out of your head." "You will not be able to." "When she wakes up, tell Charity to give her plenty to eat and drink." "And then she has to go." "That's how it is." "Go." "Palais du Louvre, Paris." "Madame de Brissac." "Excuse me, Your Eminence, but I bring a very urgent matter." "What?" "I need confession." "It's about a mortal sin that can condemn my soul." "Leave." "Ave Maria Purisima." "Before confession I wanted to say that Prince Charles hasn't been in court for more than a month." "He's surely hunting." " Perhaps, but not hunting in England." "Do you think he's gone to Spain?" "I do not know, I have no news of his passing through France." "Well, find out, and soon!" "I'll take care of it." "And that mortal sin that is endangering your immortal soul?" "I have not yet committed it." "Nominative." " Rosae." "Vocative." " Rosa." "Accusative." " Rosam." "Infinitive." " Rosae." "Dative." " Rosa?" " Rosae, rosae, rosae!" "Tell me what it serves you to use dog latin." " Why do I have to study Latin?" "Because." "Thank you, Sebastian." " At your command." "What time is your friend getting up?" " I don't know, Charity." "Find out." " Charity, we are in class." "I'm working, father." "It's enough for me having to cater for her." "It would be the last straw having to wait on her, in addition." "Go up." "Father, you know much of Latin, but about women... you don't need that knowledge, of course." "Dorotea." "Dorotea!" "Let go." "Are you going without saying goodbye?" " Yes." "Why?" " I've thought more and don't want you to come with me." "I thought..." " You thought wrong, Iñigo." "I don't need anyone, least of all you." "I have money for my own trip to the Americas only," "And besides I do not think you have the courage to cut bags or coats to pay for yours." "No, I don't think I have." "See?" "You want to be a soldier and have no courage to cut a bag." "That is different, I cannot leave the captain." "Also I was not going to go away with you." "Stop." "Here, this is yours." "My father's dagger!" "Yes, I thought I'd take it." "Not worth much." "You're not staying here just for the captain, right?" "What?" "What are you doing?" " Let's go!" "Lord." "Excellency." "The doctors and theologians await you." "Are we too late?" " Not at all, we still expect the king." "The protocol mandates that he arrives last so he doesn't have to wait for anyone." "And I inform you that the king will leave as soon as the theological meeting begins." "For what reason?" "His Catholic Majesty may not be present where you may say something against the true religion." "Of course." "If you do not mind, I should mention something." "You see, news has reached me about how dangerous our streets have become, especially for visitors." "Dangerous?" " Yes." "All kinds of events." "Convent assaults, robbery in broad daylight..." "Even those held in a brothel in jeopardy of their lives." "In short, a deplorable situation." "Don't you think?" "I don't know anything." "Now, now." "The king himself has arranged for your own safety so that from now on you will reside here at the royal palace." "Certainly the King presents us with his hospitality." "Certainly." "On the other hand it is an opportunity for the Prince to meet his fiancée." "More than likely." "Good." "After we return to the embassy I will order the transfer." "That won't be necessary, I myself have taken the trouble, your effects are on the way here." "That's good news." "Definitely." "Everything is:" "in, kill and get out." "Don Francisco says you need a fencing master." "Nobody better than you." "En guard." " Then you can teach me?" "To fight?" " No, to kill." "His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales." "You are allowing the English heretic to stroll through our court." "I've found you work with a silversmith." "You start tomorrow." "God knows one day you'll be killed, don't be surprised if it is I who do it." "Juan Barradás dead?" " Stabbed." "Our father told us before he died that we could count on your mercy." "If you are to continue in my house, you will do as I say." "What are you suggesting, Angelica?" "That my dear aunt could suffer a sudden illness." "Barradás!" "What did you feel the first time that you killed a man?" "I'll...!" " I warn you: do not touch me." "Your love awaits in the playroom ." "You've wasted enough time with that wretch." "You should not."
