While I Breathe, I Trust the Cross

I am an enemy of King Philip.
She will not be safe if she stays with me.
She's your flesh and blood.
Landry is welcome back into our sacred Order as an Initiate.
Louis! Where's Mother? They took my baby and they slit his throat.
The Templars will pay for this.
You're the one who did You're the one! Shh, shh! I believe this is yours.
Welcome home.
You're a Templar now.
Margaret.
You're nothing but a whore.
You will free Margaret at once! Louis! Gabriel.
The pope has been murdered.
Thank you for standing with us.
We will always answer your call, brother.
As we will answer yours.
I recommend you advance your legal campaign against the Templars.
Your father stabbed her in her pregnant belly.
Do not speak of my mother.
He didn't even bury her, Louis.
Templars are being arrested all across France, together with their hoards of treasure, 700,000 crowns.
Templars, lay down your weapons or Landry dies.
No! This evidence was discovered hidden inside the Paris Temple.
These Templars must pay for their offenses against God and man.
Father, into your arms I commend my spirit.
O Jesus True Liberty of the Angels, Paradise of Delights, remember the sadness you endured when your enemies surrounded you like furious lions And, with thousands of blows, insults, lacerations I love you, Anne.
I love you.
and unheard-of cruelties tormented you at will.
By these torments and insulting words, I beg you, oh, my Savior.
Get this cargo.
Quickly.
Wait.
Stop your wagon.
Stop! Stop! Come back here.
Deliver us from all our enemies, visible and invisible.
- Amen.
- Amen.
Stop them! Stop them! What's happening? Gerard! Protect the king! Go, go, go! Move back! Go on, then! Behold God's wrath! Aah! Gabriel! Lepers! He's come for us! Get them.
- Tancrede! - Anne! Guards! Get them! Don't let them escape! Get them! Guards! They're getting away.
Guards, get them! Yah! S02E08 While I Breathe, I Trust the Cross Will someone stop that bell? Father, your wound.
This is a disaster.
Word of this must not leave Paris.
I want you to lock down the city.
No one gets in or out until I've found the Templars.
No stone will be left unturned, Your Majesty.
I want them found, De Nogaret.
I want them found and I want them dead.
Orlin, see that my daughter is safely returned to the palace.
Yes, sire.
Prepare for England.
Yes, Father.
Goodbye, Brother.
I look forward to our reunion.
As do I, Sister.
Louis, take a clutch of men and find me that greybeard Templar.
Yes, Father.
The villain will find his end soon enough.
Laurent, see to the northern entrances at the gates of Saint Denis and Saint Martin.
Jude, cover the southern wall.
Oliver, grab your men and come with me.
Come on.
Move out.
By order of the king, no one shall enter or exit the city.
Close the gates! West gate closing.
Off the streets! Gates of Saint Martin secure.
Gates of Saint Denis secure.
Paris Temple closing.
Hurry, to the tunnel.
Move! And what of Talus? Talus survived 10 years in an Acre prison.
He'll only die when he decides to die and on his terms.
Let's go! Shut that gate! You lot! Right away, sir.
Sire, sire.
Off the streets.
But I saw them, the Templars.
They went into the temple.
De Nogaret, get me more men.
Oliver, bring me the ram.
Philip must have walled off the tunnel after we retrieved the gold.
Then what do we do? They're through the front gate.
There has to be another way out of here.
We survived the fires.
This can't be the end.
God must have a plan for us.
He does.
We can escape through the garderobe.
The garderobe? You'd have us climb through a shit hole? We can all climb down it and be away from King Philip - and his men before anyone realizes.
- It's still shit.
And the only way out of here beside the front gate.
Let's go.
Come on.
Help me! Who's out there? Go, you go.
Tancrede? Help.
Is somebody there? We mean you no harm.
Who are you? We're Templars.
Real Templars? Until we ride no more.
Then please, help me.
I can't be Prince Louis' pet any longer.
Please.
Stretch your hands over that rock.
Move your head back.
Search every inch of this wretched place.
Who's next? Let's go.
Let's go.
Kill them.
Kill them all.
Come on! Tancrede, there's too many.
Tancrede! Go! Landry! Capture Landry.
Go on! Go.
Go! Go! Come on.
Go! Anne! Anne! The greybeard Templar was last seen heading in that direction, my Lord.
I have more important business to attend to.
But your father explicitly stated we're to find My father isn't here.
I am.
And I will not have my desires questioned or you'll very quickly find out what happens to the man who does.
Go! Go.
Louis! You forced me to suppress the Knights Templar and this is the result.
They're loose in the streets of Paris.
Clearly this is a sign from God that He has turned His back on us.
Then you'd better speak with God and see that He falls in line.
Or I'll dispose of you and have words with Him myself.
You blaspheme.
I remind.
My God have mercy on your soul Philip.
What news, De Nogaret? I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
The Templars remain at large.
Once again you prove your worthlessness.
I listened to your counsel.
I allowed you to build a legal case against the Templars when what I should have done was attack.
Oh! I was patient.
I waited.
And waited.
And waited.
And now look the Templars still live.
Because of you, De Nogaret.
Because of you! My apologies, Your Majesty.
I didn't say you could leave, William.
Spread word to everyone in Paris.
A reward will greet them should they help capture the Templars.
It will be done.
May I go now, Your Majesty? The king has promised a reward for information leading to the capture of the Templars.
The king has promised a reward for information leading to the capture of the Templars.
We have to get off these streets or we're dead.
We can hide in my home.
Come.
We have to keep moving.
I can't go anywhere.
At least not yet.
Thank you.
For what? For saving my daughter.
I didn't let her go because she was your child.
I let her go because I couldn't continue working for King Herod.
Lydia? I've not been here since my husband and son were murdered by Prince Louis.
Lydia, Lydia.
Shh, shh, shh, shh.
Shh, shh.
- Open the door.
- Shh, shh, shh, shh.
Open the door now or we'll tear it from its hinges.
Open the door! We heard a woman screaming.
Yes, it was me.
This way.
My husband and I were there when the Templars were being burned.
The Templars that escaped killed our son.
We've been praying for King Philip and for the Royal Family and for the Templars' capture.
Would you like to join us in our prayers, sir? For our king.
All clear.
No Templars here, sir.
There's nothing here.
Let's go.
They've gone.
We must find a way to our Brothers, then get out of Paris fast.
Tancrede? Was it worth it? Was it worth betraying your Brothers for this? Your anger and your hatred destroyed everything we had.
We had nothing.
We are nothing.
Not anymore, because of you.
Me? The arrow may have damaged your knee, but that isn't what changed you, is it? Your hatred did.
Your hatred pushed you to betray not only me, but the Templars, as well.
You think I'm the only one at fault here, Landry, hmm? Open your eyes.
Grandmaster De Molay, Ulric, their deaths are on you.
Because of what you've wrought.
I saved your life, and I'm crippled because of it.
Queen Joan sacrificed her life to save yours instead.
And the Templars? King Philip obliterated them because of his hatred for you.
Because you betrayed him! I know the part I've played in all of this.
And I have sought forgiveness in the eyes of Brothers and of God.
But I didn't raise arms against my Brothers.
No, Gawain, I didn't kill them.
You did.
You did, Gawain! You did! Templars were spotted heading this way! God's greatest army has evaporated like water in the desert.
God will judge you for that, Gawain.
God judges us for many things, Landry.
Templar or not.
Is this your will, Lord? Is Landry's escape retribution for my actions against you and my fellow man? Tell me, Lord.
Please.
How have I offended thee? How can I atone? I haven't seen you pray since Mother's death.
Perhaps I should stay in Paris - until all of this is over.
- No.
You are to marry Prince Edward.
We cannot afford to make England our enemy.
But, Father, to leave now, it isn't safe.
I have already arranged a discreet departure.
No retinue, no ladies-in-waiting.
Just a handful of guards so as not to arouse suspicion.
Goodbye, Father.
Isabella.
Yes, Father? Promise me something.
Anything.
You are to be Queen of England.
You must always be the wolf, never the sheep.
And you must never listen to the fools that surround you.
This world only responds to the closed fist.
Not the open hand.
Never forget that.
I'll never forget any of your lessons, Father.
I will heed your instruction and rule as if you were right there beside me.
Alms for the poor.
Charity for the less fortunate.
Ya piss-ants.
Brother Talus.
Oh, we prayed that we would find you.
Come.
Rhone.
I'm dead weight, Vasant.
You need to keep moving.
We are.
And you're coming with us.
The Templars! This way! The Templars! The Templars! The Templars! Templars! Leave me! Go! Go! No! No, no, we're Templars.
We can take them on.
Even if you were at full strength, it would be an uphill battle.
Vasant, get Rhone to safety.
I'll delay them long enough for you to escape.
No, Master Talus.
Your life as Templars have just begun.
If God sees to it, we will be reunited again.
Now go before I strike you down, as well.
Vasant.
- Master Talus.
- Vasant.
Get them! Help me, Vasant! I brought my own key.
Margaret! Margaret? Oh, what did they do to you? What have they done? Louis, you came for me.
Always.
Margaret, what did you do? What did you do? No.
No, no, no, Margaret.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
No, Margaret.
Margaret.
Margaret.
Look at me.
Margaret.
Look at me.
Where are you going? To get closer to God.
Did you do this? Yes.
Thank you.
Drink this.
Tancrede, you must rest.
There's no time, Brother.
I have to get to the roof.
The roof? When a Templar's separated from his comrades, he moves to higher ground at first light and signals them.
It's our way of finding each other if we get split up.
Talus saved you? From a clutch of men-at-arms.
There are men-at-arms everywhere.
How are we going to escape Paris? The gypsum mines.
Beneath the city are miles and miles of sprawling tunnels.
When night falls, we can use them to get ourselves into the Royal Gardens unbeknownst to anyone.
And from there, we can take the Royal Ship.
We can sail as far away from here as we can.
The Palace? Philip would never expect it.
Because it'll lead to our deaths.
There must be another way.
No, there isn't.
The city's locked down.
This is the only way out.
We're in agreement, then.
Vasant.
We can get to the palace through here.
This is where you and Queen Joan met up.
At least something came from that affair.
Not now, Gawain.
You're only here because each of us allows it.
If it wasn't for Anne and Gabriel, you'd be dead right now.
As would his daughter if not for me.
Enough.
You two can have at it once we're outside of Paris.
When we're outside of Paris, then.
Anne.
The river is just down here.
Templars! Templars! Move.
Tancrede! Anne! Ah! Anne.
Anne, Anne, look at me, look at me.
- Aah! - Stay with me.
Come on! Ah! Anne! - Tancrede! - No! Tancrede! Hold him back! Think of your daughter.
We're together.
I love you.
The ship is all there.
No! No! No, no! I want every available ship in the Seine now.
Get them! Yes, sire.
How long does it take to capture one man? All of this gold, everything I have is useless unless I have Landry's head beside it.
Your Majesty, you have enough money to dispatch mercenaries to the ends of the earth to dispense with any vestiges of the Templars, as well as cover your debts.
Not all of your debts.
I've been beaten and tortured, but you ordered the execution of my daughter.
You didn't think I'd let you get away with that, did you? Guards! There's no one coming to your aid.
They're either looking for me or they're dead.
Louis? Louis? You should've been kinder to the women I love.
As you reminded me, I am worthless.
The king is dead.
Long live the king.
You look tired, Landry.
God has forsaken you.
