00:00:04,630 --> 00:00:06,381
[Mirab] <i>Previously on</i> House of David<i>...</i>

2
00:00:06,382 --> 00:00:08,050
There is power in you.

3
00:00:09,093 --> 00:00:11,094
This royal visit is a distraction.

4
00:00:11,095 --> 00:00:13,263
Your brother defiled my daughter.

5
00:00:13,264 --> 00:00:16,015
You must marry her or be stoned to death.

6
00:00:16,016 --> 00:00:17,684
- What is this?
- It is a summons.

7
00:00:17,685 --> 00:00:19,310
- For David.
- I will see you again.

8
00:00:19,311 --> 00:00:21,479
- Protect him.
- [Mychal] I made this for you.

9
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:22,898
It says David.

10
00:00:23,733 --> 00:00:25,108
My queen, why is he here?

11
00:00:25,109 --> 00:00:26,860
I am anxious to hear you play.

12
00:00:26,861 --> 00:00:30,447
There's a new plan to take power that
comes from the tribe of Judah.

13
00:00:30,448 --> 00:00:31,782
David...

14
00:00:35,619 --> 00:00:39,123
{\an8}[David singing in Hebrew]

15
00:01:08,819 --> 00:01:11,447
{\an8}[singing continues]

16
00:01:36,847 --> 00:01:40,017
[horse galloping]

17
00:01:54,031 --> 00:01:57,034
[patrons chattering, laughing]

18
00:02:00,246 --> 00:02:01,412
Adriel.

19
00:02:01,413 --> 00:02:02,498
Ah.

20
00:02:03,165 --> 00:02:04,624
[Abner] How is the tribe?

21
00:02:04,625 --> 00:02:07,502
The tribe of Judah is content.

22
00:02:07,503 --> 00:02:09,879
My sons are getting better with a sword.

23
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,382
Yet they are much more skilled
at driving me mad.

24
00:02:12,383 --> 00:02:13,467
[chuckles]

25
00:02:16,053 --> 00:02:19,305
I found it interesting
being in the fortress last season.

26
00:02:19,306 --> 00:02:23,352
To present the leader of Israel,
Hashem's chosen king,

27
00:02:23,894 --> 00:02:28,064
surrounded by carvings of pagan gods.

28
00:02:28,065 --> 00:02:29,148
Oof.

29
00:02:29,149 --> 00:02:32,777
Faces we have etched off the walls

30
00:02:32,778 --> 00:02:35,363
as we make a Philistine stronghold
our home.

31
00:02:35,364 --> 00:02:36,949
I could not live there.

32
00:02:37,575 --> 00:02:39,618
And yet you wish you could.

33
00:02:40,953 --> 00:02:42,788
Don't think it went unnoticed.

34
00:02:43,706 --> 00:02:45,915
And do you suppose it went unnoticed,

35
00:02:45,916 --> 00:02:51,005
you parading me before the ailing king
as a convenient show of support? Huh?

36
00:02:51,589 --> 00:02:55,300
Your loyalty is something
that he greatly appreciates.

37
00:02:55,301 --> 00:02:58,052
[chuckles] Well,
as the largest tribe of Israel,

38
00:02:58,053 --> 00:02:59,388
I'm sure he does.

39
00:03:00,723 --> 00:03:05,895
I'm quite curious of the manner in which
Samuel attended the celebration feast.

40
00:03:06,478 --> 00:03:09,898
And since the day he butchered
the Amalekite king before us all,

41
00:03:09,899 --> 00:03:14,945
he has traveled to many places
for reasons cloaked in mystery.

42
00:03:16,572 --> 00:03:18,240
Have you seen him in your land?

43
00:03:19,408 --> 00:03:21,952
Ah. Interesting.

44
00:03:22,536 --> 00:03:24,622
So this is of concern to you.

45
00:03:27,082 --> 00:03:29,835
Yes, yes. He came and made sacrifices.

46
00:03:30,544 --> 00:03:31,544
With who?

47
00:03:31,545 --> 00:03:35,340
Abner, information is surely
a currency of its own.

48
00:03:35,341 --> 00:03:37,259
I would need certain assurances.

49
00:03:37,885 --> 00:03:39,219
Hmm.

50
00:03:41,347 --> 00:03:46,018
And what do you have in mind
this time? Hmm?

51
00:03:48,812 --> 00:03:49,813
[clears throat]

52
00:03:50,522 --> 00:03:52,274
Alert the queen of my return.

53
00:03:54,485 --> 00:03:55,986
[Ahinoam] <i>What else did he say?</i>

54
00:03:57,571 --> 00:03:59,322
Nothing that he would share.

55
00:03:59,323 --> 00:04:01,741
But surely, if Samuel
has anointed another,

56
00:04:01,742 --> 00:04:04,578
the tribe of Judah will change allegiance
accordingly.

57
00:04:05,537 --> 00:04:09,624
Adriel remains loyal,
because it benefits him to be so,

58
00:04:09,625 --> 00:04:10,750
- for now.
- [sighs]

59
00:04:10,751 --> 00:04:14,545
But the seer's presence alone,
makes him smell opportunity.

60
00:04:14,546 --> 00:04:16,506
We need to put a stop to this.

61
00:04:16,507 --> 00:04:21,720
I suggest we consider a reminder
of God's sovereignty across the kingdom.

62
00:04:22,388 --> 00:04:23,805
A show of force?

63
00:04:23,806 --> 00:04:26,016
My queen, forgive me
but that is not the answer.

64
00:04:27,851 --> 00:04:31,312
The people need a display of some kind
that points to the king's strength.

65
00:04:31,313 --> 00:04:33,648
This is not your place to speak.

66
00:04:33,649 --> 00:04:35,733
You have no reason to fear me, Abner.

67
00:04:35,734 --> 00:04:37,276
Trust me, this is not fear.

68
00:04:37,277 --> 00:04:38,861
[Ahinoam] No, she's right.

69
00:04:38,862 --> 00:04:41,782
The glory of victory fades.

70
00:04:42,282 --> 00:04:45,494
We need another distraction
to capture hearts and minds.

71
00:04:46,620 --> 00:04:47,705
And what's that?

72
00:04:48,706 --> 00:04:49,707
Love.

73
00:04:51,417 --> 00:04:52,418
[scoffs]

74
00:04:54,795 --> 00:04:56,005
A union.

75
00:05:11,228 --> 00:05:14,898
Respect for the king come from the eyes.

76
00:05:17,026 --> 00:05:18,818
Be sure all metals shine.

77
00:05:18,819 --> 00:05:19,903
Yes, my queen.

78
00:05:25,617 --> 00:05:26,702
Bigger.

79
00:05:28,871 --> 00:05:32,832
Everything must be ready
when our guests arrive.

80
00:05:32,833 --> 00:05:33,959
[servant] Yes, my queen.

81
00:05:39,048 --> 00:05:40,256
[Ahinoam] Are they not done?

82
00:05:40,257 --> 00:05:42,259
[servant] They're nearly finished,
my queen.

83
00:05:47,765 --> 00:05:48,891
Good.

84
00:05:51,518 --> 00:05:55,396
"In those days, Israel had no king."

85
00:05:55,397 --> 00:05:56,731
[Mychal] Mm-hmm.

86
00:05:56,732 --> 00:05:59,192
Okay. This wasn't long ago?

87
00:05:59,193 --> 00:06:01,195
Just before you were born, yes.

88
00:06:01,862 --> 00:06:07,117
Ah. How does it feel
to be the first princess of Israel?

89
00:06:07,659 --> 00:06:09,536
The first of everything royal.

90
00:06:10,370 --> 00:06:11,789
It's a privilege.

91
00:06:14,374 --> 00:06:16,668
And yet, there's more you want to say.

92
00:06:17,336 --> 00:06:18,378
Mmm.

93
00:06:19,630 --> 00:06:21,923
Secrets are heavy, David.

94
00:06:21,924 --> 00:06:23,842
[grunts] Do you have any?

95
00:06:26,178 --> 00:06:27,512
None of consequence.

96
00:06:27,513 --> 00:06:32,643
Mmm. Mine is that sometimes
I-I want none of this. [chuckles]

97
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:34,603
Not this life.

98
00:06:35,270 --> 00:06:37,523
Nor the demands that come with it.

99
00:06:39,108 --> 00:06:42,820
I think of your village, where we met.

100
00:06:43,403 --> 00:06:44,612
[chuckles]

101
00:06:44,613 --> 00:06:47,198
Perhaps there I could be
just another girl.

102
00:06:47,199 --> 00:06:48,951
You'll never be just another girl.

103
00:06:49,701 --> 00:06:51,702
[sighs, chuckles]

104
00:06:51,703 --> 00:06:56,208
After all this time,
you are still so mysterious, David.

105
00:06:57,584 --> 00:06:59,461
I know nothing about you.

106
00:07:00,420 --> 00:07:05,634
Except because of you,
my father smiles again.

107
00:07:06,260 --> 00:07:08,303
No. It is because of you.

108
00:07:09,513 --> 00:07:12,015
When you enter the room, his mood lifts.

109
00:07:12,641 --> 00:07:14,560
I see it with my own eyes.

110
00:07:16,395 --> 00:07:19,939
- And what else do you see...
- [chuckles]

111
00:07:19,940 --> 00:07:21,150
...when you look at me?

112
00:07:28,740 --> 00:07:29,950
I see...

113
00:07:30,868 --> 00:07:33,787
I see the stars. All of them.

114
00:07:35,539 --> 00:07:36,540
And the sea.

115
00:07:37,916 --> 00:07:43,005
I see kindness and grace and wisdom.

116
00:07:45,549 --> 00:07:47,342
You are a poet, aren't you?

117
00:07:52,556 --> 00:07:53,932
I do have secrets.

118
00:07:56,018 --> 00:07:57,227
Heavy ones.

119
00:07:58,896 --> 00:08:00,230
But you can tell me.

120
00:08:03,025 --> 00:08:05,194
[door unlocking]

121
00:08:09,823 --> 00:08:10,991
What is this?

122
00:08:11,575 --> 00:08:12,992
Uh. I...

123
00:08:12,993 --> 00:08:15,495
I've been teaching him to read.

124
00:08:19,750 --> 00:08:21,334
Get to your chamber.

125
00:08:21,335 --> 00:08:25,047
Kezia has prepared a dress for you.
And please braid your hair.

126
00:08:25,923 --> 00:08:28,175
Then your father and I
want to talk to you.

127
00:08:29,384 --> 00:08:30,385
Yes, Mother.

128
00:08:47,527 --> 00:08:51,615
I do not wish to see you
alone with my daughter ever again.

129
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,451
Know who you are.

130
00:08:55,619 --> 00:08:56,911
I know who I am.

131
00:08:56,912 --> 00:08:59,414
[Ahinoam] Your sole purpose
is to comfort the king.

132
00:09:00,999 --> 00:09:03,042
Today, he needs you to play
better than ever before.

133
00:09:03,043 --> 00:09:04,920
Could you do that for him?

134
00:09:05,963 --> 00:09:07,089
Yes.

135
00:09:13,887 --> 00:09:16,056
Reuben, you were supposed to keep watch.

136
00:09:17,307 --> 00:09:18,475
[chuckles]

137
00:09:22,354 --> 00:09:24,355
[Saul] My scepter. Where is it?

138
00:09:24,356 --> 00:09:26,565
[Besai] This is all I can do
without sorcery,

139
00:09:26,566 --> 00:09:29,944
but the tincture I gave him is strong.

140
00:09:29,945 --> 00:09:32,154
[Saul speaks indistinctly]
...should respect my things.

141
00:09:32,155 --> 00:09:35,032
[speaks indistinctly] ...disappeared.
I put it down somewhere here.

142
00:09:35,033 --> 00:09:37,410
It will take him a moment to settle.

143
00:09:37,411 --> 00:09:40,871
- I trust that he will.
- [Saul growls, speaks indistinctly]

144
00:09:40,872 --> 00:09:42,958
It is by the fire, my love.

145
00:09:44,418 --> 00:09:45,419
Remember?

146
00:09:47,337 --> 00:09:50,090
[sighs] I do not trust magic.

147
00:09:50,757 --> 00:09:51,758
I know.

148
00:09:53,302 --> 00:09:55,136
And I do not trust Adriel.

149
00:09:55,137 --> 00:09:57,179
He is a frustrating soul.

150
00:09:57,180 --> 00:09:59,432
He gossips behind my back.

151
00:09:59,433 --> 00:10:01,309
And he interrupts me.

152
00:10:01,310 --> 00:10:03,020
He is a fool.

153
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:04,979
But a powerful fool.

154
00:10:04,980 --> 00:10:06,939
And he is the leader of the largest tribe.

155
00:10:06,940 --> 00:10:08,984
A marriage secures their loyalty.

156
00:10:16,408 --> 00:10:17,743
Help me with this.

157
00:10:36,053 --> 00:10:37,346
Do you love it?

158
00:10:40,182 --> 00:10:41,224
I do.

159
00:10:42,184 --> 00:10:44,436
More than anything you've ever given me.

160
00:10:48,148 --> 00:10:49,149
[kisses]

161
00:10:51,860 --> 00:10:55,030
Are we fools to welcome him into our home?

162
00:10:56,990 --> 00:10:57,991
No.

163
00:10:59,034 --> 00:11:00,202
This must be done.

164
00:11:04,915 --> 00:11:07,167
Show Adriel your strength.

165
00:11:12,422 --> 00:11:14,091
Don't let him shake you.

166
00:11:16,426 --> 00:11:18,887
I will be at your side the whole time.

167
00:11:27,938 --> 00:11:29,064
[Mychal] Father?

168
00:11:31,233 --> 00:11:33,068
You wanted to see me.

169
00:11:35,946 --> 00:11:37,239
Amazing.

170
00:11:39,408 --> 00:11:40,409
What?

171
00:11:40,992 --> 00:11:42,452
[Saul breathing heavily]

172
00:11:48,917 --> 00:11:50,710
You look like a queen.

173
00:11:54,673 --> 00:11:56,842
We have something we want to tell you.

174
00:12:06,643 --> 00:12:08,728
[David] Eliab. Welcome back.

175
00:12:11,398 --> 00:12:12,606
Glad to see you are still alive.

176
00:12:12,607 --> 00:12:14,275
Well, so much has happened
since you've been gone.

177
00:12:14,276 --> 00:12:15,484
I hope not.

178
00:12:15,485 --> 00:12:19,530
What more do you need to see, Joab?
Ten more border villages attacked?

179
00:12:19,531 --> 00:12:21,657
- [Joab speaks indistinctly]
- What of the border villages?

180
00:12:21,658 --> 00:12:24,202
More destroyed. More questions as to how.

181
00:12:25,370 --> 00:12:27,621
Reuben says he sees giants in his dreams.

182
00:12:27,622 --> 00:12:28,706
Who?

183
00:12:28,707 --> 00:12:30,292
The boy from the village.

184
00:12:31,418 --> 00:12:32,502
Ah.

185
00:13:07,412 --> 00:13:10,539
[Jonathan] Are you ready to be pounced on
by the five terrors of Adriel?

186
00:13:10,540 --> 00:13:12,000
[Mirab] Just need to entertain them.

187
00:13:13,126 --> 00:13:14,377
They're not all that bad.

188
00:13:20,383 --> 00:13:21,384
[Jonathan] You all right?

189
00:13:22,427 --> 00:13:23,428
[staff clangs]

190
00:13:28,767 --> 00:13:32,354
King Saul of Israel. And his royal family.

191
00:13:33,563 --> 00:13:36,608
[gentle music playing]

192
00:13:55,752 --> 00:13:59,172
I present Adriel, son of Barzillai.

193
00:14:00,215 --> 00:14:02,759
Leader of the great tribe of Judah.

194
00:14:03,426 --> 00:14:04,427
His wife Tamar.

195
00:14:04,928 --> 00:14:11,726
And his sons, Amos, Hezekiah,
Phineas, Simeon and Jordan.

196
00:14:13,603 --> 00:14:16,815
[Adriel] Saul. Our glorious king.

197
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,528
My family and I have traveled
for many days.

198
00:14:22,195 --> 00:14:25,198
But it has not been without peril.

199
00:14:25,740 --> 00:14:31,329
A wheel broke, one horse died,
and lightning nearly struck us twice.

200
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,416
- Twice! [chuckles]
- [laughs]

201
00:14:35,417 --> 00:14:37,668
Too bad the lightning missed.

202
00:14:37,669 --> 00:14:41,131
It has been far too long
since our families shared a meal.

203
00:14:41,673 --> 00:14:42,674
Indeed, Saul.

204
00:14:43,300 --> 00:14:44,509
It is an honor.

205
00:14:45,010 --> 00:14:48,096
And I am grateful you are
feeling well enough for guests.

206
00:14:48,597 --> 00:14:50,222
Ah, Adriel.

207
00:14:50,223 --> 00:14:55,854
You are a highly respected leader
of one of our greatest tribes.

208
00:14:56,479 --> 00:14:58,314
You have fought for this kingdom

209
00:14:58,315 --> 00:15:01,651
since Samuel first put the crown
on my head.

210
00:15:02,485 --> 00:15:04,863
And your sons fight for me still.

211
00:15:05,488 --> 00:15:08,658
The time has come, at long last,

212
00:15:09,576 --> 00:15:13,830
for our families to unite.

213
00:15:14,581 --> 00:15:16,583
Benjamin and Judah.

214
00:15:17,584 --> 00:15:20,462
The wolf and the lion.

215
00:15:22,213 --> 00:15:26,342
Today I offer up my daughter in marriage.

216
00:15:26,343 --> 00:15:28,385
[guests gasp, murmur]

217
00:15:28,386 --> 00:15:29,846
[guests applauding]

218
00:15:46,279 --> 00:15:51,201
A royal union between my daughter, Mychal,
and one of your sons.

219
00:15:53,328 --> 00:15:54,287
My king.

220
00:15:54,913 --> 00:15:55,913
[Ahinoam] Let us celebrate.

221
00:15:55,914 --> 00:15:58,248
[guests cheering]

222
00:15:58,249 --> 00:15:59,793
Shepherd. Play.

223
00:16:17,894 --> 00:16:20,813
I chased the Amalekite up the hill

224
00:16:20,814 --> 00:16:24,608
and cut the beast from throat to navel
and back again.

225
00:16:24,609 --> 00:16:25,818
[Hezekiah] That is a good story, Amos,

226
00:16:25,819 --> 00:16:28,028
but what about when I cut off
the fingers of the--

227
00:16:28,029 --> 00:16:29,655
- Ah, not this story again.
- Be still.

228
00:16:29,656 --> 00:16:32,449
- No, no, no. You do not--
- [Hezekiah] You got sick in a bush.

229
00:16:32,450 --> 00:16:33,576
Uh-uh. Sick?

230
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,954
- You are soft when it comes to fingers.
- [Amos] You are boys.

231
00:16:36,955 --> 00:16:39,498
[Mychal] My brother spoke
of the moonless night

232
00:16:39,499 --> 00:16:42,459
you ambushed and captured
one of their leaders.

233
00:16:42,460 --> 00:16:47,673
Please tell me more of your heroics.
I find it so inspiring.

234
00:16:47,674 --> 00:16:52,678
I've heard you have recently
been bedridden with a mysterious illness.

235
00:16:52,679 --> 00:16:56,807
Mmm. Yes. I was ill.

236
00:16:56,808 --> 00:16:57,892
[Adriel] Hmm.

237
00:16:58,643 --> 00:17:01,896
I'm only human.
Anointed by God, but human.

238
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,733
- Hmm.
- [Abner] My king.

239
00:17:06,693 --> 00:17:08,111
- Excuse me.
- [Adriel] Mmm.

240
00:17:13,992 --> 00:17:15,743
Excuse me. I'm going to get...
[speaks indistinctly]

241
00:17:15,744 --> 00:17:17,412
- [Amos] Look what you did.
- You did it.

242
00:17:17,996 --> 00:17:20,123
Princess. Mychal.

243
00:17:20,957 --> 00:17:22,291
- [chuckles]
- [Adriel] Mychal.

244
00:17:22,292 --> 00:17:24,209
[sighs] Ah.

245
00:17:24,210 --> 00:17:29,548
Such a momentous moment
for such a young woman.

246
00:17:29,549 --> 00:17:32,093
- [chuckles]
- You must feel honored.

247
00:17:33,386 --> 00:17:36,972
Of course. I've, uh,
waited my whole life for this moment.

248
00:17:36,973 --> 00:17:38,141
Hmm.

249
00:17:39,309 --> 00:17:42,561
My dear, you are quite, quite lovely.

250
00:17:42,562 --> 00:17:46,190
[Abner] My king.
The princess needs reinforcement.

251
00:17:46,191 --> 00:17:49,651
You know if, uh, if my wife were dead,

252
00:17:49,652 --> 00:17:51,695
I would marry you myself and, uh,

253
00:17:51,696 --> 00:17:55,866
oh, wake up every day
a happy man. Please--

254
00:17:55,867 --> 00:17:57,409
[Saul] Adriel.

255
00:17:57,410 --> 00:17:59,870
If you take my daughter's time,

256
00:17:59,871 --> 00:18:03,291
how would she acquaint herself
with your boys?

257
00:18:05,126 --> 00:18:08,629
Shall we, uh... Shall we
discuss the terms, my king?

258
00:18:08,630 --> 00:18:11,632
I trust you will be generous
and my loyalty will be rewarded.

259
00:18:11,633 --> 00:18:15,219
I don't buy loyalty, Adriel.

260
00:18:15,220 --> 00:18:17,972
- Mmm.
- Certainly not with my daughter.

261
00:18:18,723 --> 00:18:20,517
Surely there's a family more fitting.

262
00:18:21,392 --> 00:18:22,811
Look at his sons.

263
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,313
Useless, entitled fools.

264
00:18:26,314 --> 00:18:28,483
Barely a warrior among them.

265
00:18:30,652 --> 00:18:32,569
I do not see how
this benefits the royal family.

266
00:18:32,570 --> 00:18:35,281
It's not your place to see or not see.

267
00:18:37,075 --> 00:18:39,369
It is because the king commanded it.

268
00:18:40,286 --> 00:18:43,414
Your interest in the princess ends here.
Understood?

269
00:18:47,210 --> 00:18:50,630
Besides, those are not the sons of Judah
you need to worry about.

270
00:18:58,972 --> 00:19:00,056
Mychal.

271
00:19:10,024 --> 00:19:11,149
Mychal.

272
00:19:11,150 --> 00:19:12,526
Are you mad?

273
00:19:12,527 --> 00:19:14,653
Are you? You cannot go through with this.

274
00:19:14,654 --> 00:19:16,822
I have no choice.
Now go, before someone sees.

275
00:19:16,823 --> 00:19:18,532
Please tell your father
you don't want this.

276
00:19:18,533 --> 00:19:22,328
This is my life, David.
It was always going to be this way.

277
00:19:23,079 --> 00:19:26,123
You deserve so much better.
There must be something we can do.

278
00:19:26,124 --> 00:19:27,208
We?

279
00:19:27,750 --> 00:19:31,087
David, we are who we are.
Nothing can change that.

280
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,339
I have a duty.

281
00:19:34,048 --> 00:19:35,508
And so do you. Now play.

282
00:19:36,175 --> 00:19:37,176
[sighs]

283
00:19:38,511 --> 00:19:39,553
[Eliab] No, David, do not follow her.

284
00:19:39,554 --> 00:19:40,971
You get back in there
and you play your music.

285
00:19:40,972 --> 00:19:42,139
- I have to tell her.
- Tell her what?

286
00:19:42,140 --> 00:19:45,475
The truth. Who I really am,
that I'm anointed, that I'm--

287
00:19:45,476 --> 00:19:48,395
[shushes] You will not... [pants]

288
00:19:48,396 --> 00:19:50,397
You will not speak a word.

289
00:19:50,398 --> 00:19:51,565
I cannot keep lying to her.

290
00:19:51,566 --> 00:19:53,484
Well then you will not survive the day.

291
00:19:54,777 --> 00:19:59,073
Eliab, if I become a part of the family,
there will be no bloodshed.

292
00:19:59,574 --> 00:20:00,949
Don't you see?

293
00:20:00,950 --> 00:20:02,492
But I have to tell her now
before she's married.

294
00:20:02,493 --> 00:20:05,412
David, kings protect bloodlines
and eliminate threats.

295
00:20:05,413 --> 00:20:07,456
All of our lives are at stake here.

296
00:20:07,457 --> 00:20:08,957
You are not my only brother.

297
00:20:08,958 --> 00:20:11,335
Do not make me choose
between them and you.

298
00:20:11,336 --> 00:20:13,796
Now you go back out there
and you play your music.

299
00:20:14,297 --> 00:20:15,423
All right.

300
00:20:27,226 --> 00:20:28,728
Please, you're too kind.

301
00:20:29,646 --> 00:20:31,856
[Jordan]
It looks far more merry back here.

302
00:20:33,858 --> 00:20:35,276
Princess Mirab.

303
00:20:36,653 --> 00:20:38,905
How does it feel being the other princess?

304
00:20:39,405 --> 00:20:40,823
The first, actually.

305
00:20:43,034 --> 00:20:44,452
What brother are you?

306
00:20:46,454 --> 00:20:48,706
The unimportant one. Jordan.

307
00:20:49,707 --> 00:20:51,208
- Jordan.
- Mmm.

308
00:20:51,209 --> 00:20:53,460
Have you given up on
impressing my sister already?

309
00:20:53,461 --> 00:20:56,213
[chuckles] It was never going to be me.

310
00:20:56,214 --> 00:20:58,758
I'm the middle son. Always forgotten.

311
00:20:59,926 --> 00:21:01,761
I'm the rebellious disappointment.

312
00:21:04,013 --> 00:21:05,097
To being no one's favorite.

313
00:21:05,098 --> 00:21:06,474
[chuckles]

314
00:21:10,645 --> 00:21:13,648
At this moment Amos speaks to your sister
of his giant sword.

315
00:21:14,273 --> 00:21:16,024
The most impressive in all Israel.

316
00:21:16,025 --> 00:21:18,778
And then my brothers will chime in
about their swords.

317
00:21:19,737 --> 00:21:22,906
Until they all offer
to unsheathe them and compare.

318
00:21:22,907 --> 00:21:24,117
[chuckles]

319
00:21:25,827 --> 00:21:28,829
And my sister will nod along, encouragingly.

320
00:21:28,830 --> 00:21:31,874
She will be the perfect polite princess.

321
00:21:32,583 --> 00:21:35,128
And all your brothers will think
they are winning.

322
00:21:35,837 --> 00:21:37,213
And then one of them will.

323
00:21:37,839 --> 00:21:39,632
And she will be trapped forever.

324
00:21:41,009 --> 00:21:42,010
[Jordan] Mmm.

325
00:21:43,928 --> 00:21:44,928
Lovely.

326
00:21:44,929 --> 00:21:46,180
[chuckles]

327
00:21:50,435 --> 00:21:52,936
So, are you going to let your father
sell you off

328
00:21:52,937 --> 00:21:55,606
to the son of any rich tribal leader?

329
00:21:56,691 --> 00:21:58,234
Why not? They are all the same.

330
00:21:59,610 --> 00:22:02,487
Some slightly more handsome than others.

331
00:22:02,488 --> 00:22:04,657
Mm-hmm.

332
00:22:16,753 --> 00:22:17,754
[Jordan] You are strange.

333
00:22:21,632 --> 00:22:22,675
You're strange.

334
00:22:25,011 --> 00:22:26,012
Exactly.

335
00:22:27,096 --> 00:22:28,097
[chuckles]

336
00:22:28,890 --> 00:22:29,891
Come.

337
00:22:31,059 --> 00:22:33,727
What about one of the sacred texts
for me to take home to Judah?

338
00:22:33,728 --> 00:22:35,645
I don't think traveling across--

339
00:22:35,646 --> 00:22:38,565
"The scepter will not depart from Judah."

340
00:22:38,566 --> 00:22:40,025
Ah. [inhales sharply]

341
00:22:40,026 --> 00:22:42,819
That speech. Those words.
The start of it all.

342
00:22:42,820 --> 00:22:44,321
Jacob's blessing for our children

343
00:22:44,322 --> 00:22:47,366
- so that they may remember their legacy.
- [Mirab chatters]

344
00:22:49,118 --> 00:22:50,119
I know where to go.

345
00:22:50,870 --> 00:22:52,080
[sighs]

346
00:22:54,832 --> 00:22:58,585
[Agag, distorted]
<i>The lion will turn on you.</i>

347
00:22:58,586 --> 00:23:00,587
<i>Listen to his words.</i>

348
00:23:00,588 --> 00:23:03,423
For sure. For sure. For sure.

349
00:23:03,424 --> 00:23:05,259
[Agag] <i>Usurper.</i>

350
00:23:19,148 --> 00:23:22,901
The dying father to his 12 sons
many, many generations ago,

351
00:23:22,902 --> 00:23:28,282
- would be so cherished...
- [Agag] <i>Time of Judah has come.</i>

352
00:23:28,866 --> 00:23:34,622
So, uh, my king, if I could just
be gifted that, uh, one scroll.

353
00:23:35,498 --> 00:23:39,919
[Agag] <i>Saul, kill the lion.</i>

354
00:23:41,170 --> 00:23:44,381
Saul, uh, a-are you well?

355
00:23:44,382 --> 00:23:46,759
[harp playing]

356
00:23:52,181 --> 00:23:55,642
[Adriel] Perhaps you have not
fully recovered your strength after all.

357
00:23:55,643 --> 00:23:57,687
[growls]

358
00:24:02,233 --> 00:24:03,316
[Adriel sighs, stammers]

359
00:24:03,317 --> 00:24:06,654
You know, maybe this discussion
is too much for you right now.

360
00:24:07,238 --> 00:24:09,030
- [coughs]
- [Adriel] If you are in a weakened state...

361
00:24:09,031 --> 00:24:12,702
It would not be wise
to split up the sacred texts.

362
00:24:13,411 --> 00:24:16,873
It would also not be wise
to split the kingdom. Agreed?

363
00:24:18,541 --> 00:24:20,251
What is it you really want, Adriel?

364
00:24:21,460 --> 00:24:22,961
I tire of these games.

365
00:24:22,962 --> 00:24:27,340
Beg me for one more thing,
and maybe I will give it.

366
00:24:27,341 --> 00:24:30,094
A permanent seat on your council.

367
00:24:30,803 --> 00:24:35,140
My king, there is no better way
for me to serve your interests

368
00:24:35,141 --> 00:24:37,434
than to be chief among the elders.

369
00:24:37,435 --> 00:24:41,479
Done. We will finalize the terms later.

370
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:45,859
Now let us drink
and celebrate our children.

371
00:24:45,860 --> 00:24:47,486
[Adriel] Yes. [chuckles]

372
00:24:48,112 --> 00:24:50,614
Yes. I'll be back.

373
00:24:50,615 --> 00:24:52,325
- [Tamar] Yes.
- Forgive me for a minute.

374
00:24:58,998 --> 00:25:00,498
I am with you.

375
00:25:00,499 --> 00:25:03,252
By your side. The whole time.

376
00:25:10,051 --> 00:25:11,135
Is it done?

377
00:25:11,677 --> 00:25:13,179
That man is a jackal.

378
00:25:14,388 --> 00:25:15,765
Soon he will be your jackal.

379
00:25:19,644 --> 00:25:20,853
I have an idea.

380
00:25:21,437 --> 00:25:24,315
Shepherd, get ready to play
something lively.

381
00:25:27,443 --> 00:25:28,569
Get the girls ready.

382
00:25:29,487 --> 00:25:30,738
Yes. Thank you.

383
00:25:35,868 --> 00:25:37,786
Your father needs your help.

384
00:25:37,787 --> 00:25:40,873
Show him that you are the jewel
in his crown.

385
00:25:41,666 --> 00:25:42,667
[inhales sharply]

386
00:25:49,507 --> 00:25:51,509
The love between you and the queen.

387
00:25:52,009 --> 00:25:53,427
It's beautiful to witness.

388
00:25:54,595 --> 00:25:56,639
I knew from the moment I met her.

389
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,725
Oh, to marry for love.

390
00:26:01,102 --> 00:26:02,477
To have that choice.

391
00:26:02,478 --> 00:26:04,063
What a thing of value.

392
00:26:05,231 --> 00:26:07,942
You have been watching closely.

393
00:26:08,526 --> 00:26:11,279
Which of Adriel's sons would you choose?

394
00:26:12,738 --> 00:26:13,948
None of them.

395
00:26:15,116 --> 00:26:16,117
Oh.

396
00:26:19,829 --> 00:26:21,080
She should marry me.

397
00:26:23,082 --> 00:26:25,459
[laughing]

398
00:26:29,171 --> 00:26:33,592
You are a funny one, shepherd. [laughing]

399
00:26:48,316 --> 00:26:50,568
Wonderful. Beautiful.

400
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,625
- You spilled olive oil on my dress.
- Watch her dance.

401
00:27:08,336 --> 00:27:11,629
She hates doing this dance. [chuckles]

402
00:27:11,630 --> 00:27:14,717
[speaks indistinctly, chuckles]

403
00:27:21,474 --> 00:27:25,102
Everyone. I have an announcement.

404
00:27:29,315 --> 00:27:30,815
After long consideration...

405
00:27:30,816 --> 00:27:32,109
I am so proud of you.

406
00:27:33,527 --> 00:27:38,240
I have decided that this marriage,
rare and beautiful as it is,

407
00:27:38,741 --> 00:27:43,537
will be between my lovely daughter Mirab...

408
00:27:47,792 --> 00:27:49,752
and... and...

409
00:27:52,338 --> 00:27:54,339
- That one.
- Jordan.

410
00:27:54,340 --> 00:27:55,424
Mirab and Jordan.

411
00:27:57,176 --> 00:28:00,763
May God bless them in this holy union.

412
00:28:02,139 --> 00:28:05,351
Well. Yes, I suppose one
is as good as the other.

413
00:28:06,018 --> 00:28:07,477
To the happy couple.

414
00:28:07,478 --> 00:28:09,563
[all cheering]

415
00:28:19,907 --> 00:28:20,908
Mychal.

416
00:28:24,578 --> 00:28:26,579
Is this a trick?

417
00:28:26,580 --> 00:28:29,333
I don't know. I think we should smile.

418
00:28:31,627 --> 00:28:34,421
She is unpredictable. Are you sure?

419
00:28:34,422 --> 00:28:35,714
I am sure.

420
00:28:36,382 --> 00:28:37,675
[Mirab] Thank you.

421
00:28:39,844 --> 00:28:41,220
Are you happy with this?

422
00:28:41,804 --> 00:28:45,141
If the king wills it then who
am I to say no? Right?

423
00:28:47,351 --> 00:28:52,022
- [chuckles]
- [chuckles, sighs]

424
00:29:08,456 --> 00:29:09,874
[exhales deeply]

425
00:29:12,543 --> 00:29:13,627
[sighs]

426
00:29:25,723 --> 00:29:26,557
Um...

427
00:30:05,387 --> 00:30:06,387
[door opens]

428
00:30:06,388 --> 00:30:07,764
[guests laughing, chattering]

429
00:30:07,765 --> 00:30:10,558
- Go. You have to go. David. David.
- Please. Please.

430
00:30:10,559 --> 00:30:11,977
You have to go. Go.

431
00:30:33,374 --> 00:30:35,334
You're full of surprises today.

432
00:30:36,544 --> 00:30:38,128
I was the surprised one.

433
00:30:41,423 --> 00:30:43,258
To look across the hall,

434
00:30:43,259 --> 00:30:45,261
see you with a man, happy.

435
00:30:45,886 --> 00:30:47,220
Laughing.

436
00:30:47,221 --> 00:30:50,391
Like when you were a little girl. [sighs]

437
00:30:51,141 --> 00:30:54,186
I did not think you still
cared about my happiness.

438
00:30:55,646 --> 00:30:57,397
How could you say that?

439
00:30:57,398 --> 00:31:00,609
It is no secret Mychal is your favorite.

440
00:31:02,194 --> 00:31:05,114
She is your light. Hmm.

441
00:31:05,823 --> 00:31:07,157
I understand.

442
00:31:08,367 --> 00:31:10,827
She always acts exactly as she should.

443
00:31:10,828 --> 00:31:12,496
And you act as you wish.

444
00:31:12,997 --> 00:31:14,373
Just like your mother.

445
00:31:17,459 --> 00:31:18,752
Mirab.

446
00:31:20,879 --> 00:31:22,798
You are my first daughter.

447
00:31:23,591 --> 00:31:26,010
And despite appearances,

448
00:31:27,052 --> 00:31:29,346
I'm always thinking of your happiness.

449
00:31:30,139 --> 00:31:31,307
Always.

450
00:31:32,766 --> 00:31:35,603
You will keep Adriel on his toes.

451
00:31:42,860 --> 00:31:46,405
The house of Saul will not be divided.

452
00:31:48,032 --> 00:31:49,366
You have my word.

453
00:32:13,557 --> 00:32:17,478
- [grunting, panting]
- [Joab grunts]

454
00:32:19,938 --> 00:32:21,065
Look down, David.

455
00:32:24,652 --> 00:32:26,737
You see the bones and ragged clothes?

456
00:32:27,571 --> 00:32:31,325
You wouldn't be the first man dropped here
for defying the house of Saul.

457
00:32:32,868 --> 00:32:35,161
You really thought
you could come to this palace,

458
00:32:35,162 --> 00:32:37,914
play a few songs
and corrupt the princess like that?

459
00:32:37,915 --> 00:32:39,916
You brought me here,
at the order of the king!

460
00:32:39,917 --> 00:32:42,835
To comfort him,
not to corrupt his daughter.

461
00:32:42,836 --> 00:32:46,506
Every moment I've spent with the princess
has been at her request, Cousin!

462
00:32:46,507 --> 00:32:51,469
You've been a plague on our family's name
since your birth

463
00:32:51,470 --> 00:32:54,389
and your brother has been too soft on you.

464
00:32:54,390 --> 00:32:56,724
- Let me teach you a lesson.
- [grunting, panting]

465
00:32:56,725 --> 00:33:00,436
From this moment on,
you do not meet with the princess,

466
00:33:00,437 --> 00:33:03,189
you do not look at the princess,
and you don't even think of her.

467
00:33:03,190 --> 00:33:06,110
- Am I clear, bastard?
- [grunts, panting]

468
00:33:06,944 --> 00:33:10,447
Swear it! Or I drop you now.

469
00:33:18,163 --> 00:33:19,248
Try it.

470
00:33:21,959 --> 00:33:23,085
What?

471
00:33:24,002 --> 00:33:27,131
I have a purpose here, Joab.

472
00:33:29,258 --> 00:33:31,093
God has shown me this.

473
00:33:32,386 --> 00:33:33,429
A destiny.

474
00:33:37,307 --> 00:33:38,434
Do you know yours?

475
00:33:38,934 --> 00:33:40,602
[pants]

476
00:33:43,230 --> 00:33:44,231
[grunts]

477
00:33:45,941 --> 00:33:46,942
[David grunts]

478
00:34:29,985 --> 00:34:33,155
Your father gave you a gift today.

479
00:34:34,573 --> 00:34:36,909
But make no mistake, you will marry soon.

480
00:34:38,994 --> 00:34:39,995
I know.

481
00:34:43,290 --> 00:34:45,541
The reputation of our family
is being questioned.

482
00:34:45,542 --> 00:34:52,132
The last thing we need is rumors
of you chasing about a shepherd boy.

483
00:34:55,052 --> 00:34:57,888
People see things and they whisper.

484
00:35:00,390 --> 00:35:02,184
And what if he is a shepherd?

485
00:35:04,645 --> 00:35:07,189
Father was a poor donkey herder.

486
00:35:07,856 --> 00:35:10,274
Your father is the anointed one.

487
00:35:10,275 --> 00:35:11,860
Not when you married him.

488
00:35:12,861 --> 00:35:15,280
I am a daughter of a farmer.

489
00:35:15,864 --> 00:35:17,866
You are a daughter of a king.

490
00:35:21,078 --> 00:35:23,121
Do you even know who this boy is?

491
00:35:25,249 --> 00:35:28,836
Yes. I do.

492
00:35:29,711 --> 00:35:30,712
He's...

493
00:35:33,507 --> 00:35:34,758
He's humble.

494
00:35:35,467 --> 00:35:40,596
[sniffs] And passionate and brave.

495
00:35:40,597 --> 00:35:41,682
[inhales sharply]

496
00:35:42,474 --> 00:35:44,810
He sees me as more than a trophy.

497
00:35:49,106 --> 00:35:51,650
And he has a name. [sniffs]

498
00:35:52,150 --> 00:35:53,318
David. [chuckles]

499
00:35:55,404 --> 00:36:01,618
And do you know why David
lives all alone on a hill?

500
00:36:05,289 --> 00:36:06,999
Because he's a bastard.

501
00:36:08,667 --> 00:36:09,751
An outcast.

502
00:36:10,377 --> 00:36:12,546
Shamed wherever he goes.

503
00:36:18,427 --> 00:36:21,763
This boy captured your heart.
I understand.

504
00:36:23,015 --> 00:36:26,018
But a year from now
you will have forgotten his name.

505
00:36:26,810 --> 00:36:33,317
But the damage done to this house
could last generations.

506
00:36:34,818 --> 00:36:35,986
[sighs]

507
00:36:38,822 --> 00:36:40,032
Be proud.

508
00:36:40,824 --> 00:36:42,576
For when you do marry,

509
00:36:43,076 --> 00:36:48,373
your union will be much greater
than this fleeting romance.

510
00:36:49,499 --> 00:36:54,004
It will serve to protect your family
and this kingdom.

511
00:36:55,047 --> 00:36:59,843
You see, my love, the boy is right.

512
00:37:00,552 --> 00:37:02,304
You are not a trophy.

513
00:37:04,890 --> 00:37:06,516
You are a shield.

514
00:37:14,816 --> 00:37:17,444
Reuben. Where have you been?

515
00:37:17,986 --> 00:37:20,405
Why do you carry so many things?
Let me help you.

516
00:37:20,989 --> 00:37:22,991
[strains, groans]

517
00:37:24,493 --> 00:37:25,910
Palace have you working all night?

518
00:37:25,911 --> 00:37:27,579
I like to work.

519
00:37:28,288 --> 00:37:30,499
No nightmares if I stay awake.

520
00:37:31,333 --> 00:37:32,334
I understand.

521
00:37:33,335 --> 00:37:35,587
Will the giants attack us again?

522
00:37:36,630 --> 00:37:38,507
The one from my dreams.

523
00:37:41,176 --> 00:37:42,177
Never.

524
00:37:43,303 --> 00:37:44,805
I'll protect you.

525
00:37:45,973 --> 00:37:46,974
Promise.

526
00:37:48,141 --> 00:37:49,351
You're too small.

527
00:37:55,941 --> 00:37:57,859
[Adriel] <i>To the king of Israel</i>

528
00:37:59,611 --> 00:38:02,864
and this happy union of our houses.

529
00:38:03,448 --> 00:38:09,496
I will serve faithfully as your adviser,
chief of the elders of Israel.

530
00:38:10,330 --> 00:38:14,543
Before you return,
I would like to make a toast.

531
00:38:19,089 --> 00:38:20,465
To Mirab...

532
00:38:22,592 --> 00:38:24,219
my passionate one.

533
00:38:24,886 --> 00:38:27,430
May your new husband protect you,

534
00:38:27,431 --> 00:38:28,598
inspire you,

535
00:38:29,182 --> 00:38:32,310
and always remind you who you are.

536
00:38:37,441 --> 00:38:38,442
[inhales sharply]

537
00:38:39,693 --> 00:38:41,194
And to Adriel,

538
00:38:42,195 --> 00:38:46,533
I'm so proud
to join our families together.

539
00:38:48,201 --> 00:38:54,374
As a gift I have brought this scroll.

540
00:38:56,585 --> 00:39:03,258
I have had our chief scribe find
the blessing of Jacob to his sons.

541
00:39:04,676 --> 00:39:06,136
Sacred words.

542
00:39:07,095 --> 00:39:11,016
This is the most precious thing
I've ever held.

543
00:39:12,434 --> 00:39:16,353
May I read Jacob's blessing
for our children

544
00:39:16,354 --> 00:39:18,690
so that they may remember their legacy?

545
00:39:19,733 --> 00:39:21,777
[groans, chuckles]

546
00:39:22,527 --> 00:39:24,488
Um... [inhales sharply]

547
00:39:26,573 --> 00:39:30,159
Before I read these miraculous words,

548
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,537
I'd like to make a toast
and say I am truly--

549
00:39:33,538 --> 00:39:35,664
Adriel, just read the scroll.

550
00:39:35,665 --> 00:39:37,125
[guests chuckling]

551
00:39:39,461 --> 00:39:40,462
[clears throat]

552
00:39:41,797 --> 00:39:46,051
"And Israel called for his sons and said,

553
00:39:47,594 --> 00:39:51,139
'Gather around so I can tell you
what will happen to you in days to come.'

554
00:39:52,474 --> 00:39:53,766
And Israel said..."

555
00:39:53,767 --> 00:39:56,477
[Agag] Saul,

556
00:39:56,478 --> 00:40:01,525
you will lose it all.

557
00:40:02,234 --> 00:40:03,235
Silence.

558
00:40:03,860 --> 00:40:08,489
- [Agag] He will steal it from you.
- [speaks indistinctly] "'Judah...'"

559
00:40:08,490 --> 00:40:12,786
[Agag] The lion will turn on you.

560
00:40:13,286 --> 00:40:16,248
Do you not hear him?

561
00:40:17,749 --> 00:40:19,959
[Adriel] "'...your brothers will praise you.

562
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,420
Your hand will be
on the neck of your enemies.'"

563
00:40:23,421 --> 00:40:27,092
[Agag] Do you not see?

564
00:40:27,676 --> 00:40:31,680
[Agag] Usurper. Thief.

565
00:40:34,432 --> 00:40:38,144
"'The scepter will not depart
from Judah...'"

566
00:40:38,145 --> 00:40:39,562
Listen to his words.

567
00:40:39,563 --> 00:40:42,690
"'...nor the ruler's staff
from between his feet...'"

568
00:40:42,691 --> 00:40:45,901
Time of Judah has come.

569
00:40:45,902 --> 00:40:48,028
"'...until he to whom it belongs
shall come..."

570
00:40:48,029 --> 00:40:52,158
- The lion will rule!
- "'...and the obedience...'"

571
00:40:52,159 --> 00:40:53,702
Stop!

572
00:40:54,244 --> 00:40:56,412
I have not finished the blessing.

573
00:40:56,413 --> 00:40:58,081
I will finish it.

574
00:40:59,082 --> 00:41:02,210
"Benjamin is a ravenous wolf.

575
00:41:02,878 --> 00:41:05,796
In the morning he devours the prey.

576
00:41:05,797 --> 00:41:09,842
- In the evening he divides the plunder."
- [chuckles] My king,

577
00:41:09,843 --> 00:41:11,218
y-you have a good memory.

578
00:41:11,219 --> 00:41:12,637
I see you, Adriel.

579
00:41:13,972 --> 00:41:15,765
I know why you have come.

580
00:41:17,851 --> 00:41:18,809
What do you mean?

581
00:41:18,810 --> 00:41:23,522
You have been planning
the takeover of my throne

582
00:41:23,523 --> 00:41:26,526
since the first moment.

583
00:41:27,110 --> 00:41:29,195
- You have come--
- My king.

584
00:41:29,196 --> 00:41:32,574
That is not true.

585
00:41:33,533 --> 00:41:36,202
All I want to do is serve you,
and you bring me here to insult me?

586
00:41:36,203 --> 00:41:40,789
- Liar. Every word you say is false.
- Saul.

587
00:41:40,790 --> 00:41:42,833
- This offer of marriage is over.
- [Ahinoam] No, Saul.

588
00:41:42,834 --> 00:41:45,252
- Our houses will not be joined.
- Saul.

589
00:41:45,253 --> 00:41:47,880
Saul, you are tired.
Let's discuss this in the morning.

590
00:41:47,881 --> 00:41:51,133
- Do not pacify me, woman!
- [guests gasping, clamoring]

591
00:41:51,134 --> 00:41:53,802
- I'm your king! [growls]
- [Ahinoam screams]

592
00:41:53,803 --> 00:41:57,974
Your sons will never be good enough
for my daughters.

593
00:41:59,267 --> 00:42:03,396
And your greedy hands
will not touch my throne.

594
00:42:04,189 --> 00:42:06,899
- Never.
- It's true what they say.

595
00:42:06,900 --> 00:42:08,400
You have gone mad.

596
00:42:08,401 --> 00:42:12,404
Get out of my house!

597
00:42:12,405 --> 00:42:14,490
- Out! Out!
- [Adriel] Out before he slaughters us all!

598
00:42:14,491 --> 00:42:17,368
- My sons!
- [Saul growling]

599
00:42:17,369 --> 00:42:19,371
[guests gasping]

600
00:42:20,664 --> 00:42:23,208
Never touch my throne.

601
00:42:28,964 --> 00:42:30,548
[whimpers, gasps]

602
00:42:47,774 --> 00:42:48,900
Mirab.

603
00:42:50,402 --> 00:42:52,444
- I'm... I'm so sorry.
- [inhales sharply]

604
00:42:52,445 --> 00:42:54,781
This family is a curse.

605
00:42:55,907 --> 00:42:58,827
It's a curse. [sobbing]

606
00:43:02,455 --> 00:43:03,456
[sniffles, sighs]

607
00:43:08,878 --> 00:43:12,131
[Agag] <i>The lion will turn on you.</i>

608
00:43:12,132 --> 00:43:13,674
[mumbling indistinctly]

609
00:43:13,675 --> 00:43:16,219
[mumbling] Stay away from me.

610
00:43:17,554 --> 00:43:18,388
Stay away.

611
00:43:20,765 --> 00:43:22,183
[doors opens]

612
00:43:26,313 --> 00:43:27,897
[mumbling continues]

613
00:43:30,984 --> 00:43:33,611
Why do these demons still haunt him?

614
00:43:34,738 --> 00:43:35,989
Can you not help him?

615
00:43:36,698 --> 00:43:38,158
His soul is at war.

616
00:43:39,409 --> 00:43:42,746
He needs stronger forces to heal him
and you have caged me.

617
00:43:43,955 --> 00:43:45,957
What if you had absolute freedom?

618
00:43:47,751 --> 00:43:50,753
- I would use dark magic...
- No.

619
00:43:50,754 --> 00:43:52,338
- ...sorcery...
- No.

620
00:43:52,339 --> 00:43:56,216
...to create a tincture so potent
it would shake the evil from deep within...

621
00:43:56,217 --> 00:43:57,426
- No.
- ...and set his soul free.

622
00:43:57,427 --> 00:43:59,053
He doesn't believe in dark magic.

623
00:43:59,054 --> 00:44:03,016
Your husband is clouded by forces darker
than I've ever seen.

624
00:44:04,267 --> 00:44:06,310
He's the one who cannot be trusted.

625
00:44:06,311 --> 00:44:07,604
[Saul moans]

626
00:44:09,856 --> 00:44:11,316
The law forbids it.

627
00:44:12,650 --> 00:44:14,527
He will not change the law.

628
00:44:15,362 --> 00:44:18,281
Without the king's seal
it remains forbidden.

629
00:44:18,907 --> 00:44:20,658
The king is in a deep sleep.

630
00:44:22,077 --> 00:44:23,912
It will be wise not to wait.

631
00:44:25,872 --> 00:44:27,874
If he will not change the law...

632
00:44:30,168 --> 00:44:31,711
perhaps you will have to.

633
00:44:38,134 --> 00:44:40,845
[Saul breathing shakily]

634
00:45:03,910 --> 00:45:06,955
[breathes shakily]

635
00:45:25,974 --> 00:45:27,016
Shepherd?

636
00:45:28,476 --> 00:45:29,811
Forgive me, my king.

637
00:45:30,937 --> 00:45:32,063
I couldn't sleep.

638
00:45:32,814 --> 00:45:35,150
[chuckles] Neither could I.

639
00:45:40,613 --> 00:45:41,948
Look at this.

640
00:45:43,825 --> 00:45:48,329
This palace was once a Philistine fortress
before we conquered it.

641
00:45:48,997 --> 00:45:55,628
So now we're carving out the faces
of their kings and gods,

642
00:45:56,337 --> 00:45:59,549
until we make carvings of our own.

643
00:46:02,260 --> 00:46:06,055
Every new era comes
and ships away the old.

644
00:46:09,392 --> 00:46:12,896
So I wonder what will be remembered of me.

645
00:46:15,398 --> 00:46:17,817
I believe the name of Saul will never die.

646
00:46:18,526 --> 00:46:19,527
[Saul chuckles]

647
00:46:23,114 --> 00:46:25,825
My family think I made a horrible mistake.

648
00:46:28,495 --> 00:46:30,455
Mirab will never forgive me.

649
00:46:31,581 --> 00:46:35,751
[inhales deeply] But I could feel it
slipping through my fingers,

650
00:46:35,752 --> 00:46:38,254
everything I have bled for.

651
00:46:39,506 --> 00:46:41,341
Ripped from me by who?

652
00:46:42,258 --> 00:46:43,968
Adriel of the Judah.

653
00:46:45,261 --> 00:46:47,764
My family think I'm going mad.

654
00:46:48,431 --> 00:46:54,979
But that jackal wanted my throne,
and isn't worthy to sit upon it.

655
00:46:56,314 --> 00:47:02,529
This chair that every man dreams about.

656
00:47:06,908 --> 00:47:09,369
It changes you, sitting there.

657
00:47:10,203 --> 00:47:13,122
To be king is to be misunderstood.

658
00:47:14,874 --> 00:47:16,376
To be anointed,

659
00:47:17,710 --> 00:47:19,212
not by your own choice.

660
00:47:22,298 --> 00:47:25,635
I only wish it didn't hurt my family
so deeply.

661
00:47:28,972 --> 00:47:30,098
They will forgive you.

662
00:47:34,185 --> 00:47:36,312
I've seen how they care for you.

663
00:47:39,983 --> 00:47:41,192
Do you wanna sit?

664
00:47:42,318 --> 00:47:43,778
See what it feels like?

665
00:47:46,531 --> 00:47:48,324
That is for the Lord's anointed.

666
00:47:54,247 --> 00:47:55,331
[Saul sighs]

667
00:47:56,874 --> 00:48:00,628
I should go to bed to rest
before the wrath of tomorrow.

668
00:48:01,337 --> 00:48:02,546
I will walk with you.

669
00:48:02,547 --> 00:48:05,425
No, I can make it.
