Queen of Swords (2000) s01e19 Episode Script

1
Hurry!
I'm not leaving you!
Jeffrey, there's nothing we can do!
Be free!
For me!
I'll be back for your little sister!
You stupid girl!
I'm sorry, sir.
Not yet, you're not.
Where are they going?
I'm not going to come along.
Take it back to the ship.
I'm already more on your paper!
Get that!
Take it at gunpoint by my own slaves.
The menial classes just cannot be trusted
these days, can they?
I shot one of them.
Clipter on the leg.
Whilst I understand your
concern for your wife's safety
scenario, I really do not
see how this concerns me.
Need I remind you, Colonel, that this town
is your jurisdiction?
My wife's safe return is entirely your
responsibility.
When I have the time, I will look into the
matter.
I should tell you, sir.
But I am an ex-officer of the Kings Navy.
And perhaps I should tell you,
sir.
That England and Spain really have never
been the best of friends.
No.
If you'll excuse me.
I hope you do not think I'm a man who can
be bought.
Certainly not.
The honour of my office is sacrosanct.
As military commander here, I'm in Paris
to Brighton.
We'll then just considerate a gift.
A mark of a steam between one officer and
another.
In that case, it is very kind of you.
I shall be happy to initiate a search for
your wife.
I knew that you would.
Just as soon as I have finished my lunch.
Good day.
If you were hungry, why didn't you just
ask?
What if we need more than food?
How is he?
This is really not my field.
Believe me, Doctor, if there
were a veterinarian within
one hundred miles of this
pueblo, he would be here.
In this case, I have to make do with you.
Did you know that he descended from
Roister?
Is he in very much pain, do you think?
The abdomen is very distended.
It might just be an intestinal blockage.
You are talking about constipation.
I'm worried whether he has got colic.
He could be fatal.
Look, I am doing the best I can.
Do you hear a wringer about a woman being
shot on the beach?
I ran away slave.
It is none of our concern.
Will she alive?
Apparently.
Yes.
So, Doctor, do you think he will recover?
I've given him some castor oil.
Now we just have to wait and see.
Castor oil.
Is that the best you can offer?
As I keep trying to explain to you, my
40s with patients with two legged variety.
And perhaps I should remind you to be a
little bit more grateful, Doctor.
I have just sent you a client.
The woman from the beach?
No, no.
The sea captain.
It can pass rid of yours, actually.
What's this ship's captain's problem?
Apart from being English, you mean?
Look at the size of that thing.
That is a very nasty oil.
You know, that is the least of my
troubles.
These damn slaves.
Feel the calf to them,
feed them, you treat
them like human beings
and they just run off.
Decrot it, Judy.
Indeed.
Damn it, you know.
They cost me hundreds of sovereigns.
I thought it was a good investment,
but No, I'm just sick about it.
You must be very worried about it.
What do you mean, my wife?
Kidnapped at gunpoint and all that.
Yeah, terrible.
You know what, hom?
These slaves can be treacherous.
You have to maintain a constant vigilance.
Perhaps I should have a look at the girl
that was short.
Huh?
Good luck, no.
A flash wound.
Bit of an septic, though.
Surely, if you were to feed more to these
people, you wouldn't want to do that.
Make sure that they can work properly.
Yes, but how much is it all going to cost
your limit?
For you, Captain, I'll make a special
offer.
I shouldn't cost more than it would to
treat a sick meal.
Splendid.
Splendid, then we have a deal.
I'm not going to bite down on that.
No, I don't know, worry about me.
A navy man?
Can stand a puppy.
I should never have left him.
There was nothing you could do.
The Toyus soldiers are tearing the town
apart, looking for you.
Me, your husband claims you were kidnapped
by your slaves.
That's a lie.
I was the one who held them to escape.
What did you hear about my sister?
Nothing.
I'm sorry.
My husband's a monster.
I'm done talking.
Please, let me take care of this.
What are you doing?
You're going back.
It's too late.
I don't deserve that.
I won't deserve Agatha again.
There's nothing you can do.
We have to think, Jeffrey, we have to
plan.
Like you planned our escape.
Tom, did you plan to feel or to escape
from your husband?
You can't fight them all.
They're not dying.
Don't.
I believe, do you?
You said this would work.
You have your freedom.
Don't throw it all away.
My freedom means nothing without Agatha.
It's
going back for her, isn't it?
Brave.
But foolish.
Take care of Camila.
I've never been treated by a doctor
before.
Man, it's my privilege to be the first.
How's that feel?
I don't.
Have you had anything about my brother?
You're just worried about getting enough
sleep.
I'll ask around us if I can find her.
What's your name?
Agatha.
I'm Robert.
Robert Helm.
You missed your spoke of her, Robert Helm.
That's it.
She was engaged to him.
It's a Mr.'s name.
Camila?
Point was.
What is that?
Let's talk below.
I must do something.
If you get whatever has gone to find help,
please be patient.
Jeffrey's right.
I am to blame for all of this.
I'm not responsible for the blab,
and your husband's hand.
This will call you.
There must be some law in this territory.
The only law in Central
Illinois is Good.
Then I'll talk to him.
He'll help.
I'll call him.
No one but himself.
But there is no one else.
Until he said dangerous men.
Not as dangerous as my husband.
Hey you!
It's
a pretty smart property, Dr. Helm.
Not with me, or what you don't.
Where is my wife?
You stop me now!
You stay out of this way.
Where is my wife?
I got my idea.
What's perfect timing?
Now, Jeffrey, perhaps you will remember.
Where is Kim and her?
Don't!
She's hiding in the hussy under in the
country.
And we count to two three.
Yeah.
David, I don't want to.
Two.
And maybe it's Tessa of Arado.
Three.
Take the birth below.
Care the long road you will find my wife
will flock some respect to her.
In the meantime, you can throw this piece
of garbage overboard.
Oh, God.
That looks nasty.
Yeah, tell me I should see it,
Dr. I could have been worse.
You could have found.
I'll read my life again.
So, what's when we've got against you?
Oh, Kimilla.
What?
I gotta get to my horse.
What about her?
Where are you going?
When with those
chamellas that the Elvarado
has yet, I'll have to get
them before he does.
Hey, where are you going?
I just remembered I had a few errands to
run.
Are you all right to ride by yourself?
Oh, I don't know.
Oh, great.
See you around.
I might understand that these slaves did
not kidnap you.
No, Colonel.
I organised their escape.
How charitable of you?
And you did all this without informings on
your windows.
There's no reasoning with that man.
I beg you, protect us from him.
I am the military governor here.
Domestic disputes do not fall under my
jurisdiction.
Colonel, please.
If not as a man of the law, then as a man
of honour.
Personally, I find slavery about Barrick
Institution.
But I have no authority on your husband's
ship.
However, here in Santelena, my authorities
go.
Then you'll help this.
First things first.
I will arrange your room for you at the
hotel.
For your own safety, of course.
Guard?
It's a common man.
In a few moments, it's got his lady to the
hotel.
Guard her room until you are relieved.
You'll be out of danger then, until I can
investigate this situation more thoroughly.
But you will do something to help Jeffrey
and Agatha.
Don't worry, you can place their lives in
my hands.
I will do everything I can.
Good place, you will.
And you'll send your help.
See that no one enters her room.
And of course, see that no one gets out.
Why didn't you stop her?
What is your one room to do?
Should her?
She's a very determined woman.
Dr. Helm.
You're telling me you're not here.
It's all right.
See you're into hurry, please!
Dr. Helm.
What's coming?
Dr. Helm.
What's coming?
What an unexpected surprise.
You're looking rather damp.
Is it raining?
I'm looking for Camilla Wentworth.
Oh, is this beautiful?
I'm so impressed that she keeps herself so
pretty, living at sea.
Where is she?
She went to go see Colonel Montoya.
Right.
She was very determined.
Tell her it's the last person she should
go to.
Dr. Helm.
That's why you're so concerned.
Is the lady a friend of yours?
You might say that.
She was once going to be my wife.
What are you doing?
You're better with a saw than with a berry
knife.
Dr. Helm said that he was once going to
marry her, that he's still east.
I don't care about Dr. Helm.
Why don't you think I care about Dr. Helm?
I don't know what I feel, Montoya.
I just think it's funny that I'm going to
risk my life to save her.
So she could be with him?
If he's meant to be with her, there's
nothing you can do.
Is he meant to be with her?
You are the only one who seems to be so
sure of it.
Now, I'm caught with your job.
I'll leave me to mine.
Oh, Colonel.
Ah, send your feet out of the river.
Didn't you hear me calling?
You must forgive me, my mind was
elsewhere.
I'm looking for a friend of mine.
Camila, where were you?
I don't suppose you know who she is.
Please take a seat.
Thank you.
As a matter of fact, I do.
And it is a very curious situation.
I don't understand.
But you see, Senorita.
Her husband claims that his wife was
kidnapped by slaves.
However, Senorita went with claims that he
was responsible for organizing the slaves'
escape.
Oh, Colonel, if I can help clear anything
up.
And strangely, once more.
I find you at the center of entry.
Well, it's true.
They ran to my Essinda.
Probably because it's so close to where
their boat landed.
I'll fortunate for them.
No, if you'll excuse me, tell me.
Perhaps they should drive her back to my
Essinda.
Really, Senorita, I think you have done
quite enough already.
I was thinking she might want to freshen
up, you know.
Before she sees her husband.
I have already thought of that.
Which is why Senorita
went with is enjoying
the luxurious hospitality
of our lovely hotel.
My Colonel, it's like you thought of
everything.
Senorita.
I love listening to Senor.
But you take me to the Hacienda of this
Alvarado woman immediately.
You know Senorita Alvarado.
I have it from a man who is facing certain
death that she is holding my wife hostage.
You should be careful who's what you take,
Senor.
In my experience, quite extensive.
A man facing death is up to say many
things.
A few of them reliable.
I will take that risk.
Senor, did I not give you
my word as one officer
to another that I would
look for your wife?
After your damn lunch.
Well, it is now long after my damned
lunch.
And I have your wife.
Where?
Hi, sister Ponce.
Yes, of course.
But first of all, we should discuss one
outstanding matter.
This subject of my expenses.
Oh, dare you, sir.
Are you trying to hold me ransom?
I don't know.
I was merely going to suggest an exchange.
You see, I have something that you want.
And you have something that I want.
What could I possibly have that would
interest you?
It has come to my attention that you have
two cannon aboard your ship.
Correct.
What?
You want my cannon?
Only one of them.
Surely a beloved wife would be worth the
sacrifice.
All right.
Done, Colonel Montoya, now take me to my
wife.
Guard?
This, sir.
Prepare a transport wagon for one cannon.
Sit, Colonel.
One more signal.
To edit this.
Easy, boy.
You.
Who are you?
It doesn't matter.
You have to trust me.
Trust you.
Please, it's important.
Dressed as a bandit.
You break in and attack one of the guards.
It's supposed to be protecting me.
Protecting you.
He's cute, been your prisoner.
Prisoner.
Me.
We're talking nonsense.
Colonel Montoya's using you.
That's what you're wrong.
I'm under the protection of Colonel
Montoya.
Okay, I'm wrong.
Is there another guard outside?
Yes, there is.
And if you don't leave immediately,
I'll call him in.
Go on.
That area.
Guard!
Help!
Look out!
What now?
You're going to attack me next?
Camila, it's all right.
I'm a friend of Robert Hell.
Robert.
We don't have much time.
Robert's here and stand to Helene quick.
How can you be here of all places?
I just don't understand him at all.
Join the club.
Your wife is in the hotel.
Since when?
I have done everything possible to make
sure she's comfortable.
I won't tolerate trickery, you know.
If one hair on her head has been harmed,
our deal is off.
Tell me, sir, Capitan.
As one military man to another,
you have my wife.
The last time we spoke, the lovely Mrs.
Wentworth, was in fine health and spirit.
How the hell?
You seem surprised to see me, Wentworth.
You two know each other?
They're passing acquaintance.
Is that what you call attempted murder?
Oh, come now, you exaggerates.
Surely you haven't forgotten?
Crack on the head, dip in the ocean?
Bring any bells?
How intriguing.
Yes, people do the strangest things!
As you correctly say, Doctor, people can
be very unpredictable.
This man is a savage.
He cheats his people like animals.
Our way to his wife wasn't abducted at
all.
I bet she ran!
Mind your own business.
Come along, Brian.
Is my business.
How dare you insult my wife?
God
Have you completely lost your senses?
I am shocked.
Shocked, Doctor.
Captain Wentworth is a fellow countryman
of yours.
And an ex-officer of the British Navy?
Yes, but he is no gentleman.
I must insist, Doctor.
Control yourselves.
You two, take him to my office.
See God help me.
This is not over, sir.
It's not regrettable.
Our daughter is very hot-headed.
Come on.
For an English man.
Personally, I blame the son.
Shall we?
As you can see, Capitan, I have ensured
absolute and strict security.
He definitely saw me.
Of course he saw you.
They called me by name.
What did you see him smile?
I think he's happy to see me.
If there might be a better time for this.
Do we engage once?
When Robert left the
army to become a doctor,
Father called him a
coward in a disgrace.
Doctor Ham is neither of those things.
Father broke the engagement and made me
marry Charles Bloodywellworth.
Charles presented himself to society as a
brave and honorable see, Captain.
I was a slave trader.
He must take me to Robert.
You can't go back to town.
I must see him.
No.
It's too dangerous.
Then I'll go with that view.
He means that much to you.
I was foolish enough to lose him once.
I won't lose him again.
You locked me up, and you let went with
go.
I can see how to align my methods might
appear a little controversial.
Even radical.
How about downright illegal?
Please, Doctor, I did this for your own
protection.
My protection!
How many times have
you said to me in the past,
an ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure?
But in this case, the disease is already
well established.
I am dealing with a very delicate
international situation.
Yes, and I am dealing with human life.
Went with shots and innocent girl.
Whatever the right and wrongs of the
issue.
She is his property.
That is beside the point.
Is it?
Those slaves kidnapped his wife.
Why would they do that, Colonel?
Presumably as a ransom for their freedom.
And have they made a ransom demanded any
time in this?
Stay out of it, Doctor.
That is not a recommendation.
That is an order.
The door is locked.
They will be safe here.
Everything in this room is just so much
like rubbish.
All the real thing will be coming along
soon.
Let's do very handsome, don't you think?
Good ending with a short of way.
It seems so long.
I made some bad decisions.
Yeah, I met him.
I had no choice, Robert.
You remember father, he was
It's all in the past now.
I'm not going back to him.
You don't know him.
You don't have to.
You don't understand.
He'll kill me.
It will be all right.
It'll never be all right.
Whatever happens, I will protect you,
I swear.
How?
He's relentless.
Robert, the only thing that will stop him
is death.
Then tell me, Colonel, just whose damn
fault is it.
She was in your custody and your hotel
guarded by your soldiers.
She had committed no crime.
And therefore, she was not in custody.
Robert, a crime was committed.
I wouldn't want to know what the hell
you're going to do about it.
Certainly, I intend to attempt an
investigation.
If I can find five
minutes in the day, which
are free from your
infernal interference.
As the husband of the woman
allegedly kidnapped, could
you tell me how she came
to me of her own accord?
No, no, no.
Now, just you wait a moment.
And may I remind
you, sir, that lying to the
authorities is a very
serious offense indeed.
But a few moments ago, an earlier when you
said your wife was kidnapped, she was not.
However, I am a just man.
My only interest is to see the happy
couple once again reunited.
You shall have each other, and I shall
have my cannon.
It's a late for that, don't you think?
This queen of swords is rather spoiled
your part of the bargain.
Not at all.
I shall have your wife at
the beach by tomorrow's
sunrise, and you know
what I expect in return.
Very well.
To live my wife, and you will have your
cannon.
Sergeant Gomez?
Yes, sir.
Is your very pretty sister here?
See, Cullinan, Ramona?
Well, well, well.
Good afternoon, Mrs. Charles Wentworth.
You can't do this alone.
There's too many of them.
There's no one else.
I'll go with you.
And risk being seen with me?
It's died.
Oh, no.
What's wrong, Marta?
I've done this before.
What are you thinking about?
Right now.
Tell me.
Camila.
And?
And the doctor.
Marta, do you think?
I think you'll be dead, my morning.
If you don't concentrate on your job
tonight.
Yes, ma'am.
Don't want me to sit.
Who are you?
Where's Agatha?
Below.
Get out of the robot.
Don't worry.
I'll copy you.
I'm a friend.
Who goes there?
Hurry.
The boat's over here.
Copy my mind.
Where's Skankay?
Have you ever considered a career in the
circus?
Not when there's clowns like you around.
The last time we met you ran off before we
were formally introduced.
I take it.
You had that effect on most women.
Where is my life?
Philadelphia.
Jeffrey?
Because I'll run then.
I think this is the case of discretion
being the better part of Valor, no?
Jeffrey?
We've lost.
What fate takes away with one hand?
It's so often bestows again with the
other.
Oh.
This is going to be a beautiful day.
Sergeant?
Prepare the gallows.
After your last fiasco, come on.
I'll be so sure that they will both show
up before my sleeves ahead.
Do not worry.
They'll be here.
The queen cannot resist the lure of
justice.
And your wife will come to rescue the
slaves.
After all, she has proved her loyalty once
before.
Colonel?
Senorita?
Don't tell me another hand, man.
Hope to hear anybody I know.
I sincerely hope not.
These people kidnap this gentleman's wife.
Captain Charles went with me.
I saw him take my wife in my own eyes.
Captain Wentworth?
Why are the pleasure of entertaining your
wife and my senior recently?
Haha.
So you are Senorita, Valorado.
I must say, Camila Genseen kidnapped me.
Some out of life, she was an excellent
spirit.
Alas, she has now vanished.
And will be unable to corroborate your
testimony.
But if she's free, how could she have been
kidnapped?
Might I suggest Senorita?
That you'd be very careful what you're
saying.
You too could be considered part of the
conspiracy.
Me?
She was at your at the ender.
Still no hope for them?
If another captain's wife would appear.
And the truth could finally be known.
Providing one's time, just sit on it.
Good day, Colonel.
He has to die, Robert.
There's no other way.
I can do many things, Camila.
But murder is not one of them.
Well, it wouldn't be the first time.
We were at war.
I'm so sorry, Robert.
But surely the life of three is worth the
life of one of them.
I will not murder him.
Maybe your father was right.
Maybe I am just a coward.
You were never a coward.
Wait here.
Where are you going?
Just be ready to ride.
Hey, Ginger.
How's that short?
Any more trouble?
I had the situation under control.
You men always say that.
God bless you.
Thank you.
There's some horses at the Stables.
Take them and go to the ship.
Camila, stand in my office.
I'll deal with her.
Just get those two to the beach.
All right, let's go.
Let's go.
Come on.
What happened here?
Tom Octoy, the greed is heading for the
beach.
Yes, sir.
I'll join him later.
Camila.
How dare you humiliate me.
Please, Charles.
I beg you.
Can you let my ship?
You lost the right to beg.
No!
Too close at me.
Let's scop with such a messy divorce.
In how about a sword?
Oh.
Open for his problem.
That was spriggy fun.
All right, that was for Jeffrey.
Nicely done.
I wanted to do that since the day we were
married.
Let's go.
Time to have this waiting.
You appear to be a little late,
Capita.
What has happened to my ship?
At least you have not lost everything.
Let's choose my wife.
Then you lose my slaves and now you have
lost my ship.
And the queen has lost me my cannon and
left me with you.
It poor a trade I cannot imagine.
I wonder where they'll go.
Anyway, I won't.
Camilla's a fine lady.
Yes, she is.
So why don't you go with her?
I heard my reasons.
Maybe one day you'll tell me where they
are.
Maybe you already know.
I have to go now, Doctor.
