:22:11
Ah, that's better.
:22:18
I was told you were impressive
for a boy of 17.
:22:22
- I'm Eleanor, who might have been your mother.
- queen Eleanor.
:22:26
All the others here you know.
:22:28
I gather you're disturbed
about your sister and her dowry.
:22:32
Sixteen years ago
you made a treaty with us.
:22:34
- It is time its terms were executed.
- I should think so.
:22:38
Our position comes to this:
:22:40
That you will either hold the
marriage or return the vexin.
:22:44
Alais marries Richard, or we'll
have the county back at once.
:22:47
That's clear, concise
and well presented.
:22:49
My position...
:22:52
well, frankly, Philip,
it's a tangle.
:22:54
Two years ago, the queen and I...
for reasons passing understanding...
:22:57
gave the Aquitaine to Richard.
:23:00
That makes Richard
very powerful.
:23:02
How can I give him Alais too?
:23:04
The man she marries
has you for an ally.
:23:07
It's their wedding or the vexin back.
Those are the terms you made with Louis.
:23:11
True, but academic, lad.
The vexin's mine.
:23:14
By what authority? It's got my troops
all over it. That makes it mine.
:23:19
Now, hear me, boy.
:23:21
I am a king. I am no man's boy. A king?
:23:25
Because you put your ass
on purple cushions?
:23:28
- Sir.
- Philip.
:23:32
You haven't got
the feel of this at all, lad.
:23:35
Use all your voices.
When I bellow, bellow back.
:23:39
I'll mark that down.
This too:
:23:44
We are the world in small.
:23:46
A nation is a human thing. It
does what we do, for our reasons.
:23:50
Surely if we're civilized,
we can put away the knives.
:23:52
We can make peace.
We have it in our hands.
:23:56
I've tutors of my own.
Will that be all? Oh, think.
