00:37:51,980 --> 00:37:54,316
ELIZABETH: I have tried
to treat you well, my darling.
719
00:37:54,316 --> 00:37:56,068
‐ I know you have.
720
00:37:56,068 --> 00:37:57,110
Tried.
721
00:37:59,696 --> 00:38:01,698
‐ Is that what you want?
722
00:38:01,698 --> 00:38:03,242
We can do that for you.
723
00:38:03,242 --> 00:38:06,036
An estate. Friends.
724
00:38:06,036 --> 00:38:07,704
You seem young for wine,
725
00:38:07,704 --> 00:38:09,498
but... okay.
726
00:38:09,498 --> 00:38:11,583
‐ She is scared, Lizzie.
727
00:38:11,583 --> 00:38:12,543
I see it.
728
00:38:12,543 --> 00:38:13,961
‐ I am not.
729
00:38:14,419 --> 00:38:15,963
But I do not wish bloodshed.
730
00:38:15,963 --> 00:38:17,506
‐ I love bloodshed.
731
00:38:17,506 --> 00:38:19,424
‐ You don't even know what bloodshed is.
732
00:38:19,424 --> 00:38:21,426
You are a little boy who thinks he does,
733
00:38:21,426 --> 00:38:22,719
but you fucking don't.
734
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:23,345
‐ Bitch!
735
00:38:23,345 --> 00:38:24,638
ELIZABETH:
Let's pause.
736
00:38:25,222 --> 00:38:27,057
And I mean dog paws!
737
00:38:27,057 --> 00:38:28,100
Ruff!
738
00:38:28,100 --> 00:38:30,310
‐ I'm nine, for fuck's sake.
739
00:38:31,603 --> 00:38:33,605
‐ Maybe this conversation is done.
740
00:38:34,815 --> 00:38:36,441
You seem tired and grumpy, darling.
741
00:38:42,197 --> 00:38:43,282
‐ What do I do?
742
00:38:43,282 --> 00:38:44,867
He is intransigent.
743
00:38:48,829 --> 00:38:50,956
‐ There is a knife in my pocket.
744
00:39:05,345 --> 00:39:07,097
‐ We will see each other soon.
745
00:39:12,352 --> 00:39:16,064
‐ I will be kind.
I promise.
746
00:39:16,064 --> 00:39:19,234
Aunt Lizzie,
help me draw some words to say.
747
00:39:20,569 --> 00:39:21,945
‐ Of course, darling.
748
00:39:21,945 --> 00:39:23,113
Whatever you want.

They're praying for his recovery.
753

I thought they all hated him.
754
00:40:09,368 --> 00:40:12,037
‐ They're searching for Ivan.

Whoever it is.

762

Orlo.

We knew there would be blood.
767
00:40:39,523 --> 00:40:41,525
You are this close to power,
768
00:40:41,525 --> 00:40:43,402
and this close to death.
769
00:40:45,279 --> 00:40:47,406
Velementov got here very quickly.
770
00:40:47,406 --> 00:40:49,157
He's locked down the palace,

If it looks like a military coup,
but is he for you?
773
00:40:53,412 --> 00:40:55,247
Empress, you have to do it.

[exhales]
786
00:42:38,809 --> 00:42:39,893
‐ Archie.
787
00:42:42,104 --> 00:42:43,689
‐ You called for me.
788
00:42:45,399 --> 00:42:47,025
‐ I had a horrible dream.
789
00:42:48,652 --> 00:42:50,320
I'm in the forest.
790
00:42:51,113 --> 00:42:52,823
I keep having this one.
791
00:42:54,032 --> 00:42:58,453
There's a boy with a crown
in a dark forest.
792
00:42:58,453 --> 00:43:00,914
I come to a fork in the woods.
793
00:43:00,914 --> 00:43:02,040
There are two roads.
794
00:43:04,001 --> 00:43:06,295
I take a step. Next thing I know,
795
00:43:07,629 --> 00:43:10,883
my stomach's been ripped open somehow.
796
00:43:12,509 --> 00:43:13,886
My guts are hanging out.
797
00:43:16,305 --> 00:43:17,639
And I'm on the ground.
798
00:43:20,601 --> 00:43:23,604
This raven flies down
and lands on my face.
799
00:43:25,022 --> 00:43:27,691
It's pecking at my guts
while I'm still alive.
800
00:43:30,277 --> 00:43:31,612
I scream.
801
00:43:40,954 --> 00:43:42,372
‐ [whispers]
Emperor.
802
00:43:46,418 --> 00:43:47,628

803
00:44:02,351 --> 00:44:03,977

[door closes]
805

Any word on his health?
806
00:44:16,365 --> 00:44:17,824
‐ You got here fast.
807
00:44:18,617 --> 00:44:20,202
‐ I was on my way back when I heard.
808
00:44:21,745 --> 00:44:23,664
Can still ride like the wind.

[pen scribbling]
810
00:44:25,415 --> 00:44:26,917
‐ Will you support the Empress?
811
00:44:28,585 --> 00:44:30,420
‐ Let's worry about him dying first.
812
00:44:31,421 --> 00:44:33,423
I'm protecting her.
813
00:44:33,423 --> 00:44:34,800
What is it?
814
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:36,343
‐ We lost the Empress.
815
00:44:40,639 --> 00:44:41,515
‐ Wake up.
816
00:44:49,356 --> 00:44:50,232
[whispers]
Come on.
817
00:44:53,151 --> 00:44:54,152
Please live.
818
00:44:55,988 --> 00:44:57,281
I'm not ready.
819
00:45:00,492 --> 00:45:01,785
MARIAL:
Kill the cunt.
820
00:45:03,620 --> 00:45:05,080
Save Russia.
821
00:45:12,212 --> 00:45:12,880
‐ No.
822
00:45:16,758 --> 00:45:20,179
‐ Life of one to improve life
for everyone else.
823
00:45:23,015 --> 00:45:25,475
‐ I want a transformed Russia, like you.
824
00:45:27,978 --> 00:45:29,313
But not this way.
825
00:45:29,313 --> 00:45:31,440
‐ You criticize Orlo for inaction,
826
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:33,108
but you are just the same.
827
00:45:34,276 --> 00:45:35,444
‐ I can't.
828
00:45:37,696 --> 00:45:38,822
[sighs]
829
00:45:38,822 --> 00:45:39,907
‐ I'll do it, then.
830
00:45:49,041 --> 00:45:50,459
‐ No!
[Marial whimpers]

VELEMENTOV:
The Empress is missing.
835
00:46:00,385 --> 00:46:02,471
ORLO: You got here quick, is my point.
836
00:46:02,471 --> 00:46:04,014
[Marial grunting]
VELEMENTOV: Yes, you keep saying that.
837
00:46:04,014 --> 00:46:05,933
I don't know what‐‐
[Marial yells]
838
00:46:07,809 --> 00:46:08,852
‐ Hello.
839
00:46:08,852 --> 00:46:11,063
We are just‐‐
MARIAL: Upset, and hysterical.
840
00:46:11,063 --> 00:46:12,898
As women often are.
841
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:18,070
‐ Guards and clergy are
looking for Ivan, Archie.
842
00:46:18,070 --> 00:46:19,655
Do you know anything about that?
843
00:46:19,655 --> 00:46:21,990
‐ I am loyal to the Emperor,
and when he dies,
844
00:46:21,990 --> 00:46:24,284
I'm to be loyal to what is best
for the country,
845
00:46:24,284 --> 00:46:25,827
and the Russian people.
846
00:46:25,827 --> 00:46:27,621
‐ Is Ivan in the palace?
847
00:46:27,621 --> 00:46:28,580
Do we know that?
848
00:46:28,580 --> 00:46:30,499
‐ Are you both behind the Empress?
849
00:46:30,499 --> 00:46:32,668
‐ We must do what is best for Russia.
850
00:46:32,668 --> 00:46:34,419
If Ivan is that,
851
00:46:34,419 --> 00:46:35,629
so be it.
852
00:46:35,629 --> 00:46:37,923
‐ I fear that is a dead end, Archie.
853
00:46:46,056 --> 00:46:48,642
Take him and display him
in the Great Hall.
854
00:46:48,642 --> 00:46:50,686
Just so those who would rally behind him
855
00:46:50,686 --> 00:46:53,397
realize the futility
of their little quest.
856
00:46:56,984 --> 00:46:59,903
‐ Obviously, my preference was always you,
Empress.
857
00:47:01,405 --> 00:47:03,031
‐ Goes without saying, um...
858
00:47:04,324 --> 00:47:05,409
‐ I...
859
00:47:07,786 --> 00:47:09,162
You killed that boy.
860
00:47:11,456 --> 00:47:12,374
