00:15.557 --> 00:17.643
<i>Previously on</i> House of David<i>...</i>

00:17.726 --> 00:19.520
Fight with me!

00:26.568 --> 00:30.864
Tell David I'm sorry I doubted him.

00:30.948 --> 00:34.576
You have been planning
the takeover of my throne.

00:34.660 --> 00:36.870
- This offer of marriage is over.
- No, Saul.

00:43.544 --> 00:46.046
You and I are the only two
of our line that will survive.

00:46.129 --> 00:48.715
We are Israel's only hope.
You must crown me king.

00:50.884 --> 00:52.010
They're running away.

00:54.221 --> 00:56.139
Victory!

00:56.223 --> 00:58.225
Giant-slayer!

00:58.308 --> 01:00.853
Father, there is no one
more worthy for us to honor.

01:01.645 --> 01:03.772
My sword. It is now yours.

01:03.856 --> 01:04.982
Thank you.

01:05.065 --> 01:07.317
Guards! Arrest the Seer.

01:07.860 --> 01:09.027
This is finished, Samuel.

01:09.111 --> 01:10.737
No, Saul.

01:12.072 --> 01:13.657
It is just beginning.

01:20.998 --> 01:22.541
<i>History will tell you</i>

01:22.624 --> 01:26.253
<i>that the House of Saul
was defeated by his enemies.</i>

01:27.004 --> 01:31.758
<i>Others will tell you that there was never
supposed to be a king in Israel,</i>

01:31.842 --> 01:35.179
<i>and for this reason, God forsook him.</i>

01:36.805 --> 01:43.520
<i>But I will tell you that a house
divided against itself cannot stand.</i>

01:43.604 --> 01:47.274
<i>And my father was not defeated
from without.</i>

01:47.357 --> 01:49.735
<i>He was overthrown from within.</i>

01:50.569 --> 01:55.199
<i>From the one closest to him,
one he trusted.</i>

01:55.949 --> 01:57.743
<i>The one I loved.</i>

02:03.707 --> 02:06.084
Abner, what troubles him?

02:07.169 --> 02:08.962
Many things that trouble the king.

02:09.046 --> 02:10.672
I'm sure seeing you will remedy them.

02:31.735 --> 02:33.070
It is you, isn't it?

02:40.661 --> 02:41.662
My king?

02:44.373 --> 02:47.918
I loved you, trusted you.

02:49.670 --> 02:51.713
And still, you betrayed me.

02:53.048 --> 02:54.633
My king, I am loyal to you.

02:57.344 --> 02:58.762
As I always have been.

03:04.268 --> 03:05.811
Loyal...

03:09.565 --> 03:10.941
Are you?

03:15.487 --> 03:17.489
No more deception.

03:17.573 --> 03:18.907
Speak the truth.

03:21.410 --> 03:22.953
Did Samuel choose you?

03:24.204 --> 03:27.249
- My king, please just sit down--
- Did he choose you?

03:28.125 --> 03:29.126
Did he?

03:30.169 --> 03:32.129
- Did Samuel choose you?
- No.

03:34.590 --> 03:35.757
No.

03:38.051 --> 03:39.428
God chose me.

04:52.125 --> 04:56.380
People of Gibeah, welcome home your king.

04:56.463 --> 04:59.591
Yes! Yes!

05:01.468 --> 05:05.973
Saul, son of Kish,
returning to you victorious in battle.

05:18.652 --> 05:23.282
My people,
God has shined upon us once again.

05:23.866 --> 05:25.742
We keep this between us for now.

05:25.826 --> 05:30.122
Even as the Philistines
brought forth their mighty giant, Goliath.

05:30.205 --> 05:31.290
I understand.

05:32.666 --> 05:35.586
And, Mother, he will too.

05:36.962 --> 05:38.338
We did this out of necessity.

05:40.632 --> 05:43.802
It will be shock enough for him
to see you return from exile.

05:45.053 --> 05:47.097
No, I will decide
when it's best to tell him.

05:48.515 --> 05:50.434
...with only a sling.

05:50.517 --> 05:55.272
And he slayed the mighty giant
with a single stone.

06:03.697 --> 06:07.367
Now, if there are any doubts
if God is still with us,

06:07.451 --> 06:11.205
let this be a message to us all.

06:11.288 --> 06:15.125
God has given us the victory!

06:20.631 --> 06:23.258
Would you like to meet the giant slayer?

06:23.342 --> 06:25.260
Yes!

06:25.344 --> 06:29.056
David of the tribe of Judah.

06:29.139 --> 06:32.351
Simple shepherd, musician.

06:32.434 --> 06:37.064
Now, champion for all of Israel.
Step forth!

06:41.443 --> 06:45.697
David! David!

06:53.747 --> 06:58.919
From this day forward,
you will join the House of Saul.

06:59.002 --> 07:02.214
My daughter will be
given to you in marriage.

07:05.759 --> 07:08.637
And, David, as a reward for your bravery,

07:08.720 --> 07:12.307
I give you command of a thousand men!

07:19.982 --> 07:22.192
- David! David!
- David!

07:32.077 --> 07:33.078
Mychal!

07:36.623 --> 07:37.624
Mychal!

07:38.333 --> 07:39.376
Thank you. Yes.

07:40.460 --> 07:44.673
Giants fall and small men rise.

07:45.757 --> 07:47.217
And what of us?

07:47.301 --> 07:49.553
There's a price to pay for what we did.

07:50.554 --> 07:52.723
Oh, I settled my debt, son.

07:54.141 --> 07:58.645
What I know has a currency
worth more than gold.

07:58.729 --> 08:01.273
Thank you. Thank you.

08:24.796 --> 08:26.048
Ahinoam.

08:31.094 --> 08:33.180
Mother.

08:33.263 --> 08:35.390
- Oh! You're bleeding.
- I'm fine.

08:35.474 --> 08:37.434
My sisters have more blood on them
than I do.

08:43.315 --> 08:46.151
Come.

08:55.410 --> 08:56.703
Eshbaal.

08:58.288 --> 08:59.289
Esh.

09:05.003 --> 09:06.755
Mirab.

09:06.839 --> 09:08.215
How are you here?

09:09.675 --> 09:11.051
A story for another time.

09:11.134 --> 09:14.471
- Esh! You're back.
- Mychal. Oh.

09:14.972 --> 09:17.850
- Your hair, it's...
- Jonathan.

09:17.933 --> 09:19.810
- ...different. Uh...
- Better?

09:20.310 --> 09:21.645
No.

09:21.728 --> 09:23.897
Different. Different.

09:23.981 --> 09:24.982
Father.

09:31.238 --> 09:32.906
May the king live forever.

09:35.158 --> 09:36.743
I know there is much to explain.

09:39.830 --> 09:42.416
Come here, son. Come here.

09:44.668 --> 09:47.963
Explanations will come later.

09:48.046 --> 09:50.299
My family is whole again!

09:51.175 --> 09:54.178
Explanations will come later.

09:54.261 --> 09:57.097
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

09:57.598 --> 09:59.308
It's fine. We're fine.

10:02.311 --> 10:03.896
Excuse me, Father.

10:07.733 --> 10:08.734
What is it?

10:10.569 --> 10:12.738
It's David's brother, Nathaneel.

10:14.323 --> 10:15.324
Excuse me.

10:16.700 --> 10:17.701
My king.

10:18.452 --> 10:20.287
I need to go and find David.

10:20.370 --> 10:22.331
You need to go and have a wash.

10:22.414 --> 10:23.957
You might be right.

10:24.041 --> 10:25.167
Right.

10:27.044 --> 10:29.922
David? Who is David?

10:30.005 --> 10:32.591
I have so much to tell you. So much.

10:32.674 --> 10:35.552
All right. Remember that shepherd that...

10:42.518 --> 10:44.770
Alive.

10:46.563 --> 10:48.398
Alive.

10:59.117 --> 11:00.536
Looking for someone?

11:03.497 --> 11:06.834
Look at you. [chuckles] David.

11:11.046 --> 11:12.798
But how are you healing?

11:12.881 --> 11:15.259
I-I still have the image
of that spear hitting you.

11:16.134 --> 11:19.638
Honestly, I can't remember
ever feeling better.

11:20.889 --> 11:22.182
I know what you mean.

11:23.475 --> 11:28.272
I-I feel like the world has shifted,

11:28.355 --> 11:31.275
and we're here in the middle of it.

11:33.360 --> 11:35.195
My father is better.

11:35.821 --> 11:40.367
I think God has brought my family
back together again.

11:45.038 --> 11:46.164
And there's you.

11:47.499 --> 11:50.669
Us. Us, Mychal.

11:51.503 --> 11:55.007
Yes. Us.

11:56.675 --> 11:57.676
David.

11:59.136 --> 12:01.513
Jonathan, what is it?

12:05.142 --> 12:06.143
Are you all right?

12:07.186 --> 12:08.478
Afraid I have bitter news.

12:09.897 --> 12:11.648
It's your brother, Nathaneel.

12:32.377 --> 12:37.174
You don't have to speak, Great One,
but at least eat.

12:38.258 --> 12:40.469
I am nourished by the Lord God.

12:42.471 --> 12:44.139
Samuel, you have betrayed the king.

12:44.723 --> 12:46.892
An act, as you know,
is punishable by death.

12:46.975 --> 12:49.228
But Saul is feeling generous
after our victory,

12:49.311 --> 12:53.148
and so I've...
...I've come here with this offer.

12:55.692 --> 12:57.236
The Day of Atonement is coming.

12:57.861 --> 13:01.823
You will be there, as always,
beside Saul at the Tabernacle,

13:02.574 --> 13:03.992
and you will anoint him again

13:05.369 --> 13:06.745
in front of all the priests...

13:08.747 --> 13:09.957
and all of Israel.

13:10.040 --> 13:12.793
Abner, son of Endor...

13:15.546 --> 13:18.257
you were born into darkness. Were you not?

13:21.510 --> 13:23.595
I have renounced that place.

13:23.679 --> 13:27.266
I would have thought watching
your mother consumed by darkness

13:27.349 --> 13:30.936
would be warning enough
for the house you serve.

13:32.312 --> 13:33.438
I did warn them.

13:34.106 --> 13:37.985
What we allow, we become.

13:39.987 --> 13:41.154
Warn them again,

13:42.698 --> 13:49.204
or the darkness that has consumed Saul
will consume you as well.

14:42.841 --> 14:43.842
My prince.

14:45.260 --> 14:48.388
Kezia.

14:49.681 --> 14:52.309
- I will wake the queen right away.
- No.

14:53.685 --> 14:55.020
Do not tell my family.

14:55.103 --> 14:56.813
My father is finally stable.

14:57.439 --> 14:59.149
I will not be the one to trouble him.

14:59.858 --> 15:00.984
Let me see.

15:05.322 --> 15:06.573
I know of a healer.

15:07.115 --> 15:08.700
He's in the hills of Gibeah.

15:11.036 --> 15:13.956
I was often injured
before I served your family.

15:14.039 --> 15:16.583
He saved me from death more than once.

15:20.128 --> 15:21.129
Take me there.

17:35.514 --> 17:39.643
My king.
Dagonor, son of Ashdod, has arrived.

17:50.195 --> 17:51.196
Dagonor.

17:52.489 --> 17:55.117
Be thankful
you still have a throne to sit on.

17:58.996 --> 18:02.708
Throwing away the lives
of so many men has consequences.

18:03.250 --> 18:06.336
We all grieve the loss of your father.
He was a good king.

18:06.420 --> 18:07.421
Was he?

18:08.714 --> 18:10.924
We have more important losses to grieve.

18:11.884 --> 18:16.597
- We should have defeated them.
- Your plan was flawed, Achish.

18:18.098 --> 18:19.474
I had giants.

18:19.558 --> 18:25.230
Mm-hmm, that you hid behind
and it cost us everything.

18:26.481 --> 18:28.066
Have you come here looking for a fight?

18:29.776 --> 18:34.448
I've come, uh... to make a point.

18:34.531 --> 18:35.908
Azor.

18:43.415 --> 18:44.499
Then you should make it.

19:14.530 --> 19:16.490
You had the right idea.

19:17.574 --> 19:19.284
You just used the wrong weapon.

19:26.708 --> 19:27.876
Look at the blade.

19:39.054 --> 19:40.055
Not a mark.

19:40.889 --> 19:44.977
The key to defeating the Hebrews was never
the size or strength of your giant.

19:45.060 --> 19:47.354
It was the sword in his hand.

19:48.605 --> 19:50.816
We are no longer in the age of bronze.

19:51.650 --> 19:53.986
Victory now hinges on the forging of iron.

19:54.695 --> 19:56.655
When you created that sword for Goliath,

19:58.240 --> 20:00.158
you didn't fully understand
what you had made.

20:00.993 --> 20:03.787
Imagine, a Philistine army

20:03.871 --> 20:08.500
with every man
wielding a weapon like this.

20:09.209 --> 20:10.878
None could stand against us.

20:12.212 --> 20:13.422
That is my point.

20:31.273 --> 20:32.774
You're finally awake.

20:35.485 --> 20:37.196
Let's look at that ugly thing.

20:40.616 --> 20:43.911
Worse than last night. Frankincense.

20:45.954 --> 20:47.581
May I... May I ask your names?

20:48.248 --> 20:49.875
I'm Hiram.

20:49.958 --> 20:52.628
That's Sara, my granddaughter
and my assistant.

20:53.504 --> 20:56.882
She used to follow me around all day
when she was a girl,

20:56.965 --> 20:59.551
asking questions about the body.

20:59.635 --> 21:02.804
Why does this do this and that do that?

21:03.722 --> 21:05.015
Very annoying.

21:05.599 --> 21:07.392
We let this sit and wait.

21:08.060 --> 21:09.561
Clean the wound and bandages.

21:11.063 --> 21:12.397
Don't worry. She's very good.

21:15.943 --> 21:17.736
Would you mind if I took a closer look?

21:17.819 --> 21:19.988
I'm worried my grandfather
might have missed something.

21:20.948 --> 21:22.199
If you think it's best.

21:22.908 --> 21:23.909
I do.

21:25.035 --> 21:26.245
Where is Kezia?

21:26.912 --> 21:28.163
She returned to the palace.

21:35.921 --> 21:37.047
What is your opinion?

21:43.220 --> 21:45.973
I believe a piece of the arrowhead
is still lodged inside you.

21:47.182 --> 21:48.183
This will hurt.

21:52.145 --> 21:54.898
If it stays inside you,
the poison will spread and...

21:56.900 --> 21:58.110
you will die.

22:00.404 --> 22:01.446
How soon?

22:03.574 --> 22:04.575
Soon.

22:06.702 --> 22:08.120
So what do you feel should be done?

22:17.171 --> 22:21.091
This is a tool
I've been experimenting with.

22:21.175 --> 22:23.177
You want to
stick that inside me?

22:23.260 --> 22:24.887
It's not as bad as it looks.

22:24.970 --> 22:28.223
Th-The prongs will grip the arrow,
and then I pull it out.

22:28.307 --> 22:30.017
Has it worked before?

22:31.435 --> 22:35.397
Well, I've never tried it
on a human before.

22:41.069 --> 22:44.448
Jonathan, you have no reason to trust me,

22:44.531 --> 22:46.909
but I have spent years
perfecting this tool

22:48.493 --> 22:51.079
after my brother died
of an arrow wound like this.

22:52.539 --> 22:53.540
It's your life.

22:54.333 --> 22:56.418
I believe I can save it if you let me try.

22:59.838 --> 23:01.131
Do it.

23:02.007 --> 23:03.091
All right.

23:14.102 --> 23:15.395
No!

23:50.556 --> 23:51.598
All the men...

23:53.809 --> 23:54.810
good men...

23:56.895 --> 23:58.605
dead before their time.

24:01.441 --> 24:05.863
Noble causes and service to God,
and yet here I am, and they are not.

24:05.946 --> 24:07.364
And I...

24:10.075 --> 24:16.290
...I am left haunted to tell their families
that their beloved will never return.

24:22.421 --> 24:25.632
Of all the wounds I bear
from all the battles I have fought,

24:25.716 --> 24:27.467
none scar me so much as this.

24:31.096 --> 24:34.016
And this time...

24:35.350 --> 24:39.688
...it is our family who grieves.

24:46.361 --> 24:48.197
His last words were for you, David.

24:51.241 --> 24:52.576
He was proud of you.

24:57.122 --> 24:58.123
As am I.

25:04.421 --> 25:05.506
Eliab...

25:07.549 --> 25:09.510
...there are things I must tell you.

25:28.320 --> 25:30.030
What is this?

25:33.700 --> 25:38.497
Joab, what business do you have with us?
We are in mourning.

25:39.039 --> 25:43.335
I'm sorry, Jesse, but we've come
to escort David back to the palace.

25:44.461 --> 25:48.465
Escort? I-I don't understand.

25:49.508 --> 25:50.676
You haven't told them?

25:50.759 --> 25:52.302
Told us what?

25:55.889 --> 25:59.226
King Saul has made your son
a royal commander of a thousand men,

25:59.309 --> 26:00.310
including me.

26:01.812 --> 26:02.938
You as well, Eliab.

26:05.357 --> 26:06.817
- Eliab.
- No.

26:08.986 --> 26:12.489
Eliab. Eliab, listen. Stop! Stop!

26:12.573 --> 26:14.658
Eliab, your commander is giving an order.

26:14.741 --> 26:16.326
Let him make me stop.

26:16.410 --> 26:18.287
- Eliab!
- Joab, it's all right.

26:19.037 --> 26:21.331
Eliab, wait. Listen to me.

26:22.624 --> 26:25.627
Eliab. Eliab, let me talk to you.

26:27.504 --> 26:31.383
As you rise, we fall.
Right, little brother?

26:31.925 --> 26:33.135
I did not choose this.

26:33.218 --> 26:35.679
- And yet, you embrace it.
- I am doing what is asked of me.

26:35.762 --> 26:38.348
I have struggled for years
to free our family

26:38.432 --> 26:40.309
from the burden
that you have brought on us.

26:40.976 --> 26:41.977
I know.

26:43.228 --> 26:44.855
So let me do my part.

26:46.440 --> 26:48.442
Why can you not accept that?

26:48.525 --> 26:53.155
"Why?" You want to know why?

26:55.240 --> 26:58.327
Eliab.

26:58.410 --> 26:59.661
That is why.

27:06.043 --> 27:07.294
Your leader.

27:09.046 --> 27:11.006
Get up.

27:11.089 --> 27:13.842
Look at him. Our great commander.

27:15.093 --> 27:17.638
- I'm just trying--
- Eliab.

27:18.639 --> 27:22.726
You want
to be a leader? Stand up and fight me.

27:23.810 --> 27:27.147
What are you going to do
without your sling, giant slayer?

27:32.486 --> 27:34.571
Eliab. I'm-I'm sorry. I just wanted to--

27:39.493 --> 27:42.329
David, stay down.

27:58.762 --> 28:00.055
Joab, stop him.

28:00.138 --> 28:02.391
Come on. Command me now, little brother.

28:02.474 --> 28:04.101
Command me now.

28:05.394 --> 28:06.395
Eliab!

28:12.359 --> 28:13.443
You are no warrior.

28:14.486 --> 28:16.738
You are just a boy who had one lucky shot.

28:17.906 --> 28:19.449
We buried our brother today,

28:20.492 --> 28:23.495
and with you in command
we will bury thousands more.

28:23.579 --> 28:26.832
So, no, I will not follow you.

28:26.915 --> 28:30.586
Eliab. That is enough.

28:31.628 --> 28:32.796
Leave him.

28:34.214 --> 28:35.215
Go!

29:29.228 --> 29:32.022
Go ahead. Do what you need to do.

29:37.653 --> 29:39.655
Ready?

29:40.280 --> 29:41.740
Hmm.

29:44.993 --> 29:49.248
Breathe. Good. Good. Tell me about Naomi.

29:51.083 --> 29:52.084
What?

29:52.167 --> 29:55.087
You kept saying her name in your sleep.

29:55.170 --> 29:56.171
Jonathan.

29:57.589 --> 29:58.924
Tell me about her.

30:00.050 --> 30:02.135
She had my heart.

30:04.471 --> 30:07.850
I was only 20.

30:07.933 --> 30:12.020
Victorious in my first battle at Michmash.

30:14.481 --> 30:19.236
But while I was gone,
a sickness ravaged her entire family.

30:22.155 --> 30:24.908
When I returned home,
I found they'd already buried her.

30:30.122 --> 30:32.875
I've always carried the guilt
that I wasn't there with her.

30:36.378 --> 30:37.379
I'm sorry.

30:39.089 --> 30:40.174
I must go again.

30:46.221 --> 30:47.723
Oh, I feel something.

31:16.418 --> 31:19.421
<i>Yaldati</i>, my child.

31:26.803 --> 31:28.514
I worry for you, Ahinoam.

31:30.224 --> 31:31.600
Why?

31:31.683 --> 31:33.894
I am not the one bound and alone.

31:35.062 --> 31:36.063
Are you not?

31:38.941 --> 31:40.692
I didn't come here to argue.

31:41.318 --> 31:42.569
Then why are you here?

31:53.872 --> 31:57.960
Samuel... <i>Avi...</i>

32:01.338 --> 32:04.174
Saul has redeemed himself,
a great victory.

32:05.843 --> 32:07.302
Amends have been made.

32:10.055 --> 32:11.431
Can God not see that?

32:12.850 --> 32:13.851
He sees all...

32:16.186 --> 32:20.107
to the very core of who we are.

32:21.400 --> 32:23.819
Just because there is
a great victory without,

32:23.902 --> 32:26.905
does not mean there is one within.

32:28.615 --> 32:30.242
Are you saying Saul hasn't changed?

32:30.826 --> 32:35.581
I am not saying anything at all.
That is not my function.

32:41.962 --> 32:43.547
When I was young...

32:45.632 --> 32:48.510
a terrible storm hit our village.

32:51.138 --> 32:53.724
My sweet sister...

32:56.435 --> 32:58.353
we found her by the riverbank...

33:02.065 --> 33:03.775
washed up by the flood.

33:03.859 --> 33:05.277
No sign of life.

33:07.279 --> 33:11.575
And so... I prayed.

33:13.493 --> 33:17.122
I... I prayed.

33:21.877 --> 33:22.878
And then, a miracle.

33:22.961 --> 33:27.841
She gasped and came back from the dead.

33:30.928 --> 33:35.307
If God... can do that,

33:36.266 --> 33:42.606
take someone...
...and then give them back,

33:43.899 --> 33:46.026
surely he can undo this.

33:50.155 --> 33:51.532
He can...

33:56.286 --> 33:57.829
but he has not.

34:18.433 --> 34:22.229
Eshbaal. Oh. Uh, I'll come back later.

34:22.312 --> 34:23.480
No. What?

34:25.274 --> 34:26.859
You want to play hounds and jackals?

34:31.655 --> 34:33.782
Sure. Why not?

34:37.411 --> 34:38.745
Do you want wine?

34:38.829 --> 34:41.623
No. No, it clouds the senses.

34:48.130 --> 34:51.967
Esh... what happened to you?

34:53.886 --> 34:57.431
I will tell you all, Mirab.

34:58.348 --> 35:03.020
I just need time. No.

35:03.103 --> 35:08.066
At least tell me this,
will my rebellious brother ever return?

35:08.859 --> 35:10.444
Rebellion takes many forms.

35:10.527 --> 35:14.698
Fun brother then?
It's been dreadfully dull without you.

35:17.534 --> 35:19.161
I'm still here, Mirab.

35:23.123 --> 35:25.709
Now, go. It's your move.

35:27.920 --> 35:32.174
So, I hear Father
ripped a wedding from you.

35:32.716 --> 35:36.136
That's right.

35:36.220 --> 35:39.723
Jordan from Judah? Really?

35:39.806 --> 35:40.849
He's not so bad.

35:40.933 --> 35:42.434
No? Was Mirab in love?

35:42.518 --> 35:45.521
No, I was not in love.

35:46.146 --> 35:47.272
I didn't know him.

35:51.109 --> 35:52.361
But I did like him.

35:55.405 --> 35:58.033
And you know, it was nice for a moment

35:58.700 --> 36:03.205
to imagine a-a life with a decent man.

36:04.248 --> 36:06.625
Perhaps be happy.

36:07.417 --> 36:10.087
Happy? You?

36:11.964 --> 36:13.090
Right.

36:13.173 --> 36:14.675
I should've known better.

36:15.300 --> 36:16.927
None of it was meant for me.

36:17.010 --> 36:18.387
It was for Mychal.

36:18.470 --> 36:19.930
Perhaps for good reason.

36:20.806 --> 36:23.308
She is wonderful,

36:23.392 --> 36:26.353
and I always manage to ruin everything.

36:27.396 --> 36:28.730
It's what I'm known for.

36:30.482 --> 36:33.402
Why do you do that?
Why do you put yourself down?

36:36.530 --> 36:38.866
Maybe Jonathan and Mychal
get everything they want

36:38.949 --> 36:40.951
because they believe they deserve it?

36:41.034 --> 36:45.372
While you and I have remained shackled by
our belief that we are forever unworthy.

36:47.040 --> 36:49.042
We are worthy, Mirab.

36:49.126 --> 36:50.669
We always have been.

36:50.752 --> 36:55.549
And if you truly believed that,
what would you ask for?

37:02.639 --> 37:03.932
Samuel.

37:06.018 --> 37:09.271
How I have waited
for this moment.

37:10.397 --> 37:11.398
Who are you?

37:12.566 --> 37:13.901
Who am I?

37:15.152 --> 37:19.114
I am Doeg, an Edomite.

37:20.782 --> 37:23.452
But you are no stranger to me.

37:24.036 --> 37:27.456
I've been tasked to discover
the name of the anointed one.

37:29.249 --> 37:34.505
Even if it takes your life,
as it did your apprentice.

37:35.923 --> 37:39.176
What was his name, your apprentice?

37:40.260 --> 37:43.138
I only remember his screams.

37:45.140 --> 37:47.726
Silas was his name.

37:47.809 --> 37:49.228
Silas.

37:50.187 --> 37:55.108
Tell me, is it true
you've never cut your hair?

37:55.192 --> 37:59.696
That it is somehow sacred to your God?

38:01.198 --> 38:03.283
Perhaps we should start there.

38:05.285 --> 38:06.537
There is another name.

38:08.372 --> 38:09.498
Hmm?

38:09.581 --> 38:13.293
Another name you dream of often.

38:15.629 --> 38:16.630
Timna.

38:21.426 --> 38:22.427
What?

38:23.345 --> 38:24.429
What did you say?

38:25.347 --> 38:28.767
Timna. Your mother's name.

38:29.476 --> 38:30.477
You see,

38:31.353 --> 38:34.147
you are not so unknown to me

38:34.231 --> 38:37.401
and to God as you think.

38:38.527 --> 38:42.155
When your mother, Timna,

38:43.282 --> 38:45.701
died by your father's hands,

38:47.452 --> 38:50.122
you cowered. Did you not?

38:50.706 --> 38:52.708
Beneath the stairs.

38:56.253 --> 38:58.213
- How would you know that?
- Uh-huh.

38:59.173 --> 39:03.177
And afterward,
you felt something else, didn't you?

39:03.260 --> 39:07.472
You felt curiosity that still burns.

39:07.556 --> 39:09.141
It burns within you.

39:09.933 --> 39:15.022
And thus began your obsession with death.

39:16.982 --> 39:20.819
God, he could've lifted you
from that dark place,

39:20.903 --> 39:22.237
but you renounced him,

39:22.321 --> 39:25.365
and you turned to even deeper shadows.

39:25.449 --> 39:28.243
And so, Doeg,

39:29.578 --> 39:31.330
son of Timna,

39:32.664 --> 39:34.416
Edomite...

39:37.669 --> 39:39.421
allow me to help you.

39:52.017 --> 39:53.894
<i>What is this place?</i>

39:54.478 --> 39:57.898
<i>You are trapped in the death
you brought to so many others...</i>

40:02.277 --> 40:04.905
<i>and there you shall remain.</i>

40:08.992 --> 40:11.203
God has given us the victory

40:12.037 --> 40:15.916
and blessed us with a new son
and champion.

40:16.625 --> 40:20.087
A simple shepherd, just as I was.

40:22.172 --> 40:23.173
Yes.

40:25.717 --> 40:27.886
A great victory.

40:29.179 --> 40:33.892
But do you really think
David is capable of commanding an army?

40:34.560 --> 40:37.479
It is wise to use David
to unite our people.

40:38.564 --> 40:41.024
They love him. He inspires them.

40:41.108 --> 40:43.819
- He inspires me.
- You inspire them.

40:48.782 --> 40:49.783
You.

40:53.078 --> 40:56.790
Perhaps it is wise to wait.

40:56.874 --> 40:57.875
Wait?

40:58.750 --> 41:00.335
For the wedding announcement.

41:00.919 --> 41:04.214
Give David more time
to better prove himself.

41:04.298 --> 41:06.842
Prove himself?

41:06.925 --> 41:10.012
More so than killing a giant?

41:11.680 --> 41:14.975
You were ready to marry Mychal off
to one of Adriel's boys

41:15.058 --> 41:17.060
without proving themselves.

41:18.937 --> 41:23.233
Adriel is a powerful leader
and a necessary alliance.

41:24.568 --> 41:29.615
David is the bastard child of a commoner.

41:29.698 --> 41:34.995
Ahinoam, I have made my decision.
Why must you challenge me?

41:40.292 --> 41:44.087
We don't need any more wine. Leave us.

42:04.024 --> 42:05.943
If you don't believe in David,

42:07.486 --> 42:08.695
you do not believe in me.

42:08.779 --> 42:10.531
Of course I believe in you.

42:13.367 --> 42:17.079
Come. Sit with me.

42:20.165 --> 42:23.168
My king.
There's something you need to see.

42:23.836 --> 42:25.045
What is it, Abner?

42:25.963 --> 42:27.214
Please come.

42:30.884 --> 42:32.803
He is not responding to anyone.

42:33.804 --> 42:35.556
I fear he is trapped as you were.

42:38.934 --> 42:39.977
And Samuel?

42:41.228 --> 42:42.229
Gone.

42:43.188 --> 42:46.441
What fool ordered Doeg
to threaten the prophet?

42:46.525 --> 42:48.819
And why was I not made aware of this?

42:51.989 --> 42:54.658
I was hoping
the threat wouldn't be necessary.

42:55.492 --> 42:57.286
Better to keep your hands clean of it.

42:58.620 --> 43:00.706
Find Samuel at once.

43:14.720 --> 43:17.639
David, don't worry.

43:18.765 --> 43:21.393
I'm sure his hands hurt
more than your face.

43:24.021 --> 43:26.607
Eliab, is there something
you want to say to your brother?

43:27.482 --> 43:28.609
That's Jonathan's sword.

43:29.151 --> 43:31.612
Yes, he gave it to me.

43:38.744 --> 43:39.828
Avva.

43:42.915 --> 43:48.212
Take care of those sheep for me,
and <i>Saba</i> too.

43:48.295 --> 43:49.296
Promise.

44:00.849 --> 44:02.351
When will you return?

44:04.061 --> 44:06.104
I've been claimed into the king's family.

44:07.189 --> 44:09.441
So, not for a while.

44:10.442 --> 44:12.236
I'm going to marry Princess Mychal.

44:13.111 --> 44:17.449
I think that through our union,
I will find my way to the throne in peace.

44:18.283 --> 44:19.868
I hope you are right.

44:21.036 --> 44:25.082
David, I never believed
Israel should have a king...

44:25.165 --> 44:28.836
...but if it is indeed God's will,

44:29.878 --> 44:31.380
I am glad it will be you.

44:34.716 --> 44:38.262
Promise me you will stay safe.

44:39.930 --> 44:40.931
The lord is with me.

44:41.807 --> 44:42.808
The lord is with you.

44:49.565 --> 44:50.691
Ready, Commander?

44:51.692 --> 44:52.693
Here.

44:54.319 --> 44:56.738
Thank you. I'm still getting used to that.

44:59.700 --> 45:00.784
Goodbye, Father.

45:05.998 --> 45:08.250
"Commander David," sounds good.

45:10.127 --> 45:12.671
David, wow. That is your horse?

45:13.338 --> 45:14.506
Mm-hmm.

45:14.590 --> 45:17.342
I have a feeling your new command
is gonna bring me the attention

45:17.426 --> 45:18.427
of many fine ladies.

45:19.344 --> 45:21.138
- You want to ride back?
- Ah, if you're offering.

45:21.221 --> 45:23.974
No. We would rather walk.

45:29.605 --> 45:30.606
Let's go.

45:37.321 --> 45:38.322
Go.

45:44.494 --> 45:45.621
You want to walk?

45:46.455 --> 45:47.831
Yes, I want to walk.

46:37.756 --> 46:40.467
Mirab, an unexpected surprise.

46:42.261 --> 46:43.595
I couldn't sleep.

46:43.679 --> 46:45.514
You are my daughter indeed.

46:46.557 --> 46:47.766
Come. Sit.

46:55.941 --> 46:56.942
You want wine?

46:58.610 --> 47:00.696
No, it clouds the senses.

47:00.779 --> 47:02.656
Yes, isn't that the point?

47:05.242 --> 47:06.410
What is bothering you?

47:07.953 --> 47:09.329
Nightmares of the battle?

47:10.581 --> 47:11.582
No.

47:16.211 --> 47:20.549
When you tore a life away from me,

47:20.632 --> 47:25.554
a marriage, it was truly painful.

47:29.099 --> 47:31.018
I thought you saw how happy I was.

47:35.355 --> 47:39.943
My sweet. You know, I was not myself.

47:41.445 --> 47:42.571
I know.

47:47.201 --> 47:49.912
And that is why
I have something to ask of you.

47:50.579 --> 47:56.543
There is a way in which
I could serve this kingdom and this house.

47:57.711 --> 47:59.463
Your house, my king.

48:09.806 --> 48:13.227
<i>I defy the king of Israel.</i>

48:13.310 --> 48:16.355
<i>I defy the god of Israel.</i>

48:51.056 --> 48:55.894
This sword. I fear it is cursed.
I do not want it near the king.

48:56.937 --> 49:01.650
You take it to Nob, you hide it with
the other sacred objects. Yes?

49:02.359 --> 49:03.735
Yes, Commander.

49:03.819 --> 49:04.820
You tell no one.

49:07.030 --> 49:08.031
Go.

49:34.433 --> 49:36.101
- Hello, Father.
- Hello, my son.

49:36.935 --> 49:37.936
What is this?

49:38.520 --> 49:40.981
This is something
which is not supposed to be seen.

50:08.175 --> 50:10.177
Morning.

50:10.928 --> 50:12.679
You look so much better.

50:14.890 --> 50:16.517
How are you feeling, brother?

50:19.228 --> 50:20.270
What are you doing here?

50:20.979 --> 50:22.689
Kezia was concerned.

50:22.773 --> 50:25.776
Don't worry, I will keep your secret.

50:25.859 --> 50:30.656
Eshbaal sat by your side all night
waiting for your fever to break.

50:31.281 --> 50:33.617
Uh, perhaps he was just
waiting for me to die.

50:34.535 --> 50:36.912
See, I told you. He'll never trust me.

50:39.122 --> 50:42.417
Hmm, did my brother charm you all night?
He's good at that.

50:42.501 --> 50:46.880
He only spoke of you.
How much you've done for your family.

50:50.300 --> 50:52.177
I should be getting back to the palace.

50:52.261 --> 50:53.345
Slowly.

50:55.639 --> 50:57.641
- I'm fine. Thank you.
- Okay, stay here.

51:07.776 --> 51:09.361
Thank you for saving my life.

51:11.029 --> 51:14.283
And, uh, for your company.

51:18.203 --> 51:23.041
Uh, it's, uh... it's clear
you're not fully recovered.

51:24.001 --> 51:27.546
Perhaps, Sara,
you should return with us to the palace

51:27.629 --> 51:29.464
as the prince's personal healer.

51:30.174 --> 51:31.633
I don't know if this--

51:31.717 --> 51:35.929
I would appreciate
your care and expertise.

51:37.890 --> 51:41.560
I'm sorry, but this is my home.
I'm needed here.

51:43.812 --> 51:44.813
Of course.

51:45.439 --> 51:46.899
I'll fetch you some supplies.

51:53.197 --> 51:58.118
Well, I had to try. I'm just happy
to see you look at a woman again.

52:32.152 --> 52:33.153
Stand back.

52:36.698 --> 52:38.951
Stand back. Stand back.

52:40.077 --> 52:41.078
Are you all right?

52:42.663 --> 52:44.957
My father's gathered everyone
in the throne room.

52:45.541 --> 52:49.294
There's a special announcement.
Come.

53:18.448 --> 53:23.662
My king, I thank you for allowing me
to return home and grieve my brother.

53:24.246 --> 53:27.291
David, I'm glad to have you back.

53:28.125 --> 53:31.295
Are you ready now to commit to this house,

53:31.378 --> 53:33.630
to being a commander of men,

53:33.714 --> 53:37.301
to dedicating your very life
in service of your king?

53:43.473 --> 53:46.852
I know in my heart my place is here.

53:52.107 --> 53:53.609
I accept your vow,

53:54.318 --> 53:55.777
and as a gift...

53:58.197 --> 54:01.408
I offer you my beautiful daughter
in marriage.

54:03.368 --> 54:04.369
Mirab.
