Queen of Swords (2000) s01e08 Episode Script

1
We got a nail, it's finally gone.
And we should wait.
But commands make you so attractive,
make up your tan.
Come on.
Come on.
You can leave the six men.
I'll leave them.
I'll leave them for school now.
Have a long time.
Copy that.
I'll look into that shortly, Senora
Hildago.
I know I'll be safe in your capable hands.
You'll see well.
You can see anything you'd keep your mouth
shut.
Is that clear?
No, leave.
Bear said Montoya's taking almost all the
garrison to greet the new viceroy.
That guard seems to know everything before
it happens.
She keeps her ear to the ground.
I'm one of that, yeah.
It'll be a little more like you.
At least with Montoya, the queen can relax
for a while.
You want to let my friend go?
Great.
But I was dead.
This is luck, Christian.
I think yellow is more of your color.
The internet saw this town.
I said it would be easy, pickens.
I'm finding you here.
Well, that just makes it perfect,
corporal.
It's a captain now.
Mm.
You come a long way.
Since we rode together and you ran out
on me.
The timeline neck was a little more
important.
than yours.
You left me to hang.
It was nothing personal.
When he walked, Christian.
You're town.
I'm right.
Kill him.
It's full time.
I want to chop it up, right?
You gotta do it yourself.
You're not that stupid, are you?
Come be and speak.
I don't know what you got playing with.
I'm sure as hell won't sit still for him.
I want you to fack.
When was the last time they fought for
anything?
I don't know.
I think it was 100 men against you.
And they will.
Unless.
Unless I help you.
At least fools are stupid enough to trust
you.
I'm the captain of the guard.
I can protect the downs from people like
you.
Lamarena.
Cut him.
Cut him free.
Cut him free.
Easy.
Welcome aboard.
Captain of the guard.
Don't we get my pistol back now?
First things first.
Do you sit still and shut up?
I don't get many reason to kill you.
Thank you.
Captain Christian.
Get the weapons.
There's nothing I will trust you.
It's just as I recall you were always such
a number two list.
Do you've taken him both to save my life?
Ten things.
I just got lucky the British counter
-attacked when they did.
Well, let's just make sure you don't get
lucky again.
I want you
to have a party.
This is how it breaks your new command.
You'll invite all the pop-dons and their
wives, Mr. Leon.
Plenty of people.
I don't even know a whole hell of a lot
about him as soon as town.
Is he a military training corporal?
No, you're enemy.
Leave me, I do.
You pistol.
That's promised.
What do you think about the red one?
Or did you like the blue one better?
Mm -hmm.
All about a potato sack and feathers.
What do you wish?
Or a bear skin rug in a three-cornered
hat?
Perfect.
Martha.
Look at me.
Huh?
Don't go.
Because of a dream?
Because of the hanged man.
It was more than a dream.
It was a vision of what is to come.
Martha, you've always taught me the fate
is fate.
Then he said, we're staying home.
No, Martha.
When it's my time to go, I won't have a
choice.
But you don't have to go looking for
trouble.
Montoya's gone.
This room once.
Why can't I dance?
I haven't seen any soldiers.
But what?
Let's make the most of him.
I thought he wasn't one good way.
You can't be back already.
Turn so soon.
You're a pretty one.
I'm sorry.
I mistook you for someone else.
Why is that man wearing Montoya's clothes?
So the colonel comes back in a few days
and what happens then?
He'll find his brandy gone.
And his town under my command.
With your help, of course.
It's just like old times.
Not quite.
You've come up in the world.
Yes, I have, and I have earned it.
I wonder if the people in this town know
what they're Capitan is really like.
A man who killed his commanding officer to
escape a hang.
For the murder of a 16-year-old boy,
you pulled that trigger crane.
Not me.
So you said it in my court, Marshal.
Which reminds me, I never thanked you for
helping me for that.
What was your dog?
Come and be useful.
That's an order.
I think it's time to leave.
I believe you have their attention.
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to interrupt
the party, but And are those men?
I'm saying your crane would like to
address this all.
Well, I, for one, sir.
Do not wish to be addressed.
I'm not a pocket.
Listen, Lord, you're frightening us,
ladies.
You have no need to be frightened.
I'm not interested in you, ladies.
In fact, you can all go home.
And load every piece of your gold and
jewelry onto your wagons.
And deliver them to me here tomorrow at
this exact time.
This is monstrous.
Remember, ladies, your husband's lives are
in your hands.
You can all be good little wives.
Well, you can be with us.
It's him.
I'm a man.
In Cornell, Montezius.
You are in charge of immigration.
I'm aware of my position.
No!
You must put an end to this.
Calm down.
We are in betrayal.
What do you intend to do?
I intend to let crime believe he's getting
what he wants.
You seem to be doing a splendid job of it.
But tomorrow you'll all be free.
I'm watching them all in.
You just have to trust me.
Apparently, we have no choice.
Do we?
Goddammit.
Gentlemen?
I don't know.
There's nothing more.
Do anything else you want to tell me
about?
There's nothing more.
You forget how well I know you.
But you have my word.
Well, now there's a comfort.
Because if you just find anything else,
I will blow your brains out.
Another personal key.
It's behind the bathtub on the floor.
Honesty is the best policy.
Don't try to be a hero.
Richard?
Not a problem.
Heroism's not one of his weaknesses.
Keep laughing for me.
Where are you hungry at me?
I'm not angry at you.
I'm not mad at you.
I'm not a host.
Help me.
They have Gaspa.
They won't our goal.
What do I do?
That'll be all right.
But how?
How can you stop him?
I know, Crane.
He's going to make a mistake.
And when he does, I'll be there.
But there are so many of them.
I promise you.
What?
Soon.
Listen to me, this happened.
You can't call.
We've been arguing about this all night.
Do you think Crane will release their
husbands in just right away?
How can you stop them alone?
I'll find a way.
You'll find is your grave.
Well, who else is there?
Grisham?
I'm not even sure whose side he's on.
That's easy.
They're winning side.
What do you feel when you look at Crane?
Death.
He is death.
Crane won't leave anyone alive to come
after him.
But Crane is the high man.
It was a dream, Martha.
A dream that's becoming reality.
Do you know what's real?
The dance have no one.
They will all die tomorrow, lest the Queen
rescues them from Montoya's jail.
Please, don't call.
I didn't choose my destiny, Martha.
It chose me.
Save the dance if you must.
But I beg you.
Stay away from Crane.
And Montoya's coach will stop right here
over the buried pot of barrel.
And on a friend Grisham, we might refuse.
And
No, no, no, no.
No more colonel.
We shoot any soldiers who survive,
and we own a town.
Tricks are on me.
Salu!
Looking for a drink?
I don't feel so.
Let me change your mind.
I don't ring with strangers.
How about dinner then?
A foot here is in fit for beats.
That's what I mean, like.
You got a name?
What?
And Crane.
I know.
Aren't you afraid of me?
Why?
Do you bite?
Only if I like you.
Not here.
Hurry, please.
What are you waiting for?
Who sent you, gypsy?
Grisham?
You should talk.
Before I cut it out.
Get off!
Grisham!
Where is that son of a bitch when I'm
bleeding the dead?
Careful.
You got my hopes up.
The next time I call, you come running.
Out.
At that smarts.
I'd expect to command an army.
When you can't even control your women.
There's nothing wrong with a little
domination now and then is there.
First, some gypsy tries to blow my brains
out.
And some lunatic in a black mask tries to
gut me.
Kind of town you're running here.
Just say there's a few kinks that's still
need to work on us.
The one in the black mask who was she?
Guess it's as good as mine.
Don't get smart with me who was she.
I don't know.
You lie.
Why the hell would I lie to you?
The next time your mass friend shows up.
I'll bury you, both.
I thought I was helping.
You warned me to steer clear of the hangman
then you throw yourself in his arms.
We're not finished!
You think I'd race you so few people die
at the hands of the beak?
You're going to need for this?
He could have killed you!
You're going to waste a nightrock on time.
What if I'm arrogant?
It's because I've learned it from you.
Why did you do that?
Because you're not the only one allowed to
risk in our life for someone she loves.
I'm sorry.
No, I'm sorry not though.
Oh, there's got to be a way out of this.
It need an army to be the crane now.
We have no man.
Under those harsh danger.
The guards are in jail.
But their wives aren't.
Hi!
You're done!
My husband's life isn't your party.
My nerves are destroyed and you're running
me to death.
Get out!
I need to be sued, not born!
That's power.
What am I going to do?
What am I going to do?
What am I going to do?
Do you want to save your husband?
Not you!
Could things get any worse?
Please, I'm too young to die.
I'm here to help.
Good.
Have yourself my jewels, my gov. Do you
want to save your husband?
My husband and all the other don's.
Me.
The don's wives don't trust the queen.
But they trust you.
But what could I possibly do?
No!
It's impossible!
If anything ever happened to the only that
goal.
You'd make a poor widow.
No money.
No properties.
I wonder if you'd mind bathing in the
river.
Tell me what to do.
Get the don's wives to cover your canyon
at noon tomorrow.
I'll take care of the rest.
No one?
Whatever you can.
Should be collecting our gold.
Not wasting our time here.
At your husband's lives worth a little
more of your time?
Why does a bandit care about our husbands?
Because they do not deserve to be
murdered.
All he wants is our goal.
And after you pay the ransom, he will kill
them.
You don't know that.
Frank is not a man who will send him his
behind.
If she can save her, then we should
listen.
I can save your men.
But only with your help.
Who are wives?
They don't expect you to think or act as
men do.
But the hand that rocks a cradle can also
fire a rifle.
And be a target for one.
Yes, but a target that fights back.
You alone stand between your husbands and
their debts.
You have the strength?
You have the opportunity.
Do you have the courage?
A handful of women are against men.
But the Queen of Swords leads them.
She has convinced them to fight.
In truth, Senora, I never intended to hurt
anyone.
I just needed to get their attention.
But my friends will be unharmed.
Thanks to your honesty and good
conscience.
And my husband will be returned to you
safely.
You have my word.
Good days, Senora.
Rest easy.
Knowing you've done the right thing.
She should have been Christians,
woman.
They make a perfect pair.
And as soon as you fire, pass your weapons
back to the loaders.
Loaders, your job is simple.
Just keep the guns ready.
Any questions?
I won't deny the risk.
I know this is dangerous.
And we all have a lot to lose.
Some of us more than others.
If anyone wants out, now it's time to say
so.
I'm very proud of all of you.
Remember, ladies.
Your husbands are counting on you.
Namaste.
Almost time for the women to relax.
They'll be late.
They're going to always like
I think they'll go through with it.
I know they will.
You'll maze an aggression.
Don't you know anything about the fairest
sex?
Like what?
Like they'll do anything to protect their
man.
It's one of their few useful traits.
Did you get that from a manual crane?
A lifetime of observation and research.
I'm a student of many things.
I did you know how long it can take a man
to die of a belly wound?
No, I don't.
It's just a test.
Absolutely, Corporal.
Captain.
Absolutely.
And for your sake, I hope you pass.
Where is everyone?
Where are you asking me?
Ladies, welcome to my humble abode.
Take your best shot, ladies.
I don't know.
These horses look kind of nervous.
But it's up to you.
Fire when ready.
You lied!
And you sold out your friends.
I wonder which is the greater offense.
What have you done?
I'm going to make a choice, ladies.
Can you start this?
Or do I?
Very good.
Now, bring me all that gold and all those
jewels.
Well, they die.
A little far to give it.
It's time.
Marta, over here.
Where are the rest of the women?
Waiting in their old courtyard.
I need their help.
There's care to death.
I will kill their man if they try
anything.
It's too late for fear.
I'll do what they call.
Marta, be careful.
Isn't that my line?
One time his coach will stop right there.
Do you like the fuse?
Mother!
You get to be a colonel?
Just like that.
Killing the commanding officer and 15 men.
Well, let me put it to you this way.
If you don't.
That man.
That man.
That man and that man.
We'll shoot you.
I'll make a hell of an argument,
Crane.
Enjoy your promotion.
Tell me why I shouldn't slit your throat
right now.
I missed my chair next mile.
And the shooting starts.
Craining the gold will disappear.
I don't care about your monitor yet.
But the dawn zone doesn't have to die.
This is what you're in.
I would live with it.
You won't get the chance.
Crane has ordered you shot the second
after you signal the husband.
So let me see if I get this.
Lord Montoya.
I'm dead.
Don't blow the Montoya.
I'm dead.
You ain't stuck to see all the H2G caps
in.
Might I not expect to see you tomorrow?
Ah!
Think I'm ready to follow my lead.
Now what a day.
We trust Christian to actually go through
with it.
He has no choice.
But any of the other men could like the
fuse.
No, this is personal.
I want the blood to be on Christian's
hands.
He never understood the concept of
loyalty.
Not like you.
And now you and I disappear with the gold.
We're all those fools killing children.
We have enough here to live well for the
rest of our lives.
We've
been the boss all the soon.
Ah!
Kill her!
That was really hate that.
You can't see dead yet.
Time to say goodbye, Queen.
Oh, okay.
I see you again before I left town.
I'm types.
Oh, man.
This woman like you.
deserves special attention before she
dies.
That's sweet.
I will magic in a psychotic fight.
Use your head.
I'll just think half one.
Carefully.
I was hoping we could be friends.
Maybe we could be a lot more.
This is getting to be a happy.
Better.
Can you ever forgive me for what I did?
After we've freed no one, man.
Bring back any memories?
I'll give you all the gold you want.
I'd better say that to all the girls.
Let me think about it.
In the meantime, you just hang around.
And stay out of trouble.
It's a queen of sorts.
The fuse.
Hurry!
Congratulations.
You're a hero.
You're dead.
You're dead.
Just say to us.
No, no, no.
Just say to us.
How are you?
Third goes the hang of man.
Insurrection is a crime against the
monarchy.
The vice-roye of Monterey wants to hang
cream personally.
I had a dream last night.
Oh, not again.
Yes, sir.
Listen, but I don't want to hear it.
I saw you lying by a stream.
Well, that sounds relaxing.
I knew where Father's house.
Thank you very much.
No.
You were pregnant.
Really?
With you, sir.
Third.
And my husband?
You was by your side.
Paul?
Roger Scholner's.
Maybe someone I know?
No, no.
He turned to Kiseo.
And I will cut them.
I don't believe you.
Well, it was yesterday.
Manta!
