:40:02
I even wanted Henry, too,
in those days.

:40:05
Now I've only one desire left...
to see you king.

:40:09
The only thing you want to see is
father's vitals on a bed of lettuce.

:40:12
You don't care who wins, as long
as Henry loses. You'd do anything.

:40:15
You are Medea to the teeth,
:40:17
only this is one son you won't use
for vengeance against your husband.

:40:23
How my captivity has
changed you.

:40:27
Henry meant to hurt me.
He's hacked you up instead.

:40:34
Men coveted this talon once.
:40:37
Henry was 18 when we met,
and I was queen of France.

:40:41
He came down from the north to
Paris with a mind like Aristotle's...

:40:44
and a form like mortal sin.
:40:48
We shattered the commandments
on the spot.

:40:52
I spent three months annulling
Louis, then in may, in spring,

:40:56
not far from here,
we married...

:40:59
young count Henry
and his countess.

:41:02
But in three years' time I was his
queen, and he was king of England.

:41:07
Done at 21... five years
your junior, general.

:41:13
I can count. There was no Thomas
Beckett then, or Rosamund...

:41:18
no rivals, only me.
:41:22
And then young Henry came,
and you...

:41:26
and all the other blossoms
in my garden.

:41:30
Yes. Had I been sterile,
darling, I'd be happier today.

:41:35
Is that designed to hurt me?
What a waste.

:41:38
I've fought with Henry over who
comes next, whose dawn it is...

:41:41
and which son gets the sunset,
and we'll never live to see it.

:41:46
Look at you.
:41:48
I loved you more than Henry,
:41:51
and it's cost me everything.
What do you want?

:41:55
I want us back the way we
were. No, that's not it.

:41:59
All right, then.
I want the Aquitaine.
