We know you're going to Castile soon.

King Louis invited you to do
it for France, visiting the court.

Traveling through France
with our daughter? How dare he!

My God! He'll give the enemy
the heiress to the throne!

Shouldn't I fight against
my parents' enemies?

Not now.

Do you want Juana to break
relations with her parents?

If I don't get Juana away from her family

I'll be nothing more than her husband.

Colombus has finally
arrived in Cadiz. Your Majesty.

And when can he honor us
with his presence in the court?

You're here by order of
the judge sent by the crown.

In my name, Bobadilla has
stripped you of the titles of viceroy

and governor of the new territories.

The collection of alcabalas is
and endless source of corruption.

We won't eliminate them,
no matter who asks us to.

Peace and justice cost money.

May our money not
fatten the crown's trunks.

But we'll all pay for our debts with God.

I want to thank you for having
convinced them in my favor.

The king of England is
asking for Princess Catherine.

He wants to marry her to
Prince Arthur as soon as possible.

The English must know we have
a serious commitment to them.

Get everything ready.
Our daughter must go to England.

Fadrique must leave the crown.

If you don't force him...

we, Spain and France, will do it.

You'll leave immediately for France.

Clear up-the issue over
Naples with the French.

We must define the borders clearly.

Your queen has suffered a
lot from the loss of her children.

We wouldn't want to cause her more grief.

Either we cede to France's
ambition, or we risk another war.

See how much your parents care about you.

They didn't hesitate to put you at risk

by declaring war against our hosts.

I won't take the heirs
of Spain as hostages.

Ferdinand would release
all of his wrath on us

if we touched a single
hair on their heir's head.

The archdukes have left the French court

escorted by the guard of King Louis.

- He's on his way to the border.
- Where are my parents?

They couldn't ride all the way
here to welcome you, madam.

Your rents and goods
will be re-established.

Thank you.
Thank you, Your Majesty.

But in exchange you II
renounce the titles you lost.

The king of England won't
accept a marriage with Margarita.

And how will you achieve that?

Asking for help from Maximilian.

I didn't know that your father married

Margarita to the duke of Savoy.

A letter from Ferdinand got
to the emperor at the right time.

If it's a game, he
found a rival at his level.

Episode 10

Today is a happy day for the kingdom.

It can't be less for its kings.

- Hasn't he arrived?
- Not yet.

And would he speak for both
courts on such an important day?

It was decided that way.

- As a reward for his loyalty.
- As the host of the archdukes.

At a bad time...
God creates them.

Here they come.

Don Diego Pacheco.

The years have left their mark on you.

Time is our enemy.

It fights face to face... unlike others.

You're welcome in the name of our kings.

It's an honor.

Your rank deserves it.

And the archduke's interest
has make it inevitable.

Come with us.

Damned Burgundians!

Calm down!

Don't respond to their provocation!

[Toledo Cathedral,
May 22nd, 1502.]

God has guided the steps

of Your Majesties to us

on this day when we'll proclaim

Don Juana and Don Philip as

your successors to the throne of Castile.

Only God knows why

He took your beloved son Don Juan...

prince of Asturias.

And after him, the honorable
Queen and Princess Isabel.

Your first-born daughter
and the legitimate heiress.

And also your legitimate son...

the distinguished Prince Miguel.

Your grandson and heir who would
have taken these kingdoms as his.

God, and our kings with Him

have chosen the honorable Archduchess
Juana as heiress of these kingdoms.

And so, she will be named

princess of Asturias

beside her husband, Prince Philip.

God save our Queen Juana
and her husband Philip!

Stop.

Take your place beside me.

You're my husband and our prince.

[Ludlow, England.]

God, He who brought me here

didn't want me, Catherine of Aragon,
to be queen of England one day.

Your husband, the deceased prince of Wales

will take care of you from where he is.

A man died far from his
family. What was his sin?

Following his sir to friendly land.

Maybe he did worse things than you

and his death is the
consequence of provocation.

You were there, from what I
understand. Point out the guilty one.

Your Eminence.

You're not the only one
who complains. It seems that

the archduke's entourage
acts like an invading horde.

Your Majesty, in the kingdom of
France, which you consider an enemy

Prince Philip was treated better
than in his future kingdom in Spain.

We really dislike the
welcome we have given.

But it's not comparable to
the one received in Flanders

by those who were to accompany Juana

and couldn't come back to tell the story.

Instead, that man's family

will receive just treatment
from the crown.

I think that's fair.

But it will change in essence.

We'll tolerate your hostility until
our lord in Aragon allows us to leave.

Your high eminence has failed in his plans.

Bringing the princes to
Castile has cost us too much.

And now that they're
here... they'll stay here.

This will be our main concern.

Castile's air suits us well.

It suits us better now
that you're the princess.

Have I changed at all?

You are accomplishing your goals.

And there's a lot of
expectation around you.

How could my love for
you not grow every day?

How could I not be proud
of being your prince consort?

Castile's crown is small

compared to the joy you give me.

You can keep Castile

while I rule its queen's heart.

We have duties toward Castile.

To make the best possible
queen out of Juana.

Do you think that will
happen if we keep her here?

I don't doubt your skills,
but I do our daughter's.

I would have put my hand in
fire before she went to Flanders.

These years couldn't have changed
her much compared to what she was.

From what Fuensalida says, it was enoug
time for her husband to rule her will.

But I only see harmony there
where he said there was only chaos.

Maybe he was also wrong
about our daughter's character.

Maybe. May God protect us if we are wrong.

I'll talk with her.

I'll see if she's the one
to continue our legacy.

And if she has strayed from her
path, we'll know how to get her back.

You'll treat Philip.

What do you want to know about him?

I can tell you the answer ahead of time.

You think he's charmed by the French.

But if France was able to do it

Castile and Aragon will win his loyalty.

And may God protect us.

Because we've brought
our plans up to this point

and we need to secure the
future with what we have.

What is it that I need to know so urgently?

The queen wants us to stay in Castile.

And she's going to put
all her effort into that.

Your wishes wouldn't be
taken into consideration.

It's good news that my
mother-in-law loves me so much.

It shows we've won everything in Castile.

Are you sure about that?

Our efforts should be focused on France.

I want to resume the engagement betwee
my son Charles and King Louis' daughter.

His destiny is to be the new Charlemagne.

And mine is for that to be achieved.

In order to do that, you
should be very careful.

Allow me to offer some advice.

Appreciate the favors
Castile's kings have given you

or they'll go against you.

By favor you mean...

They know the reign's future

goes through you and your wife.

Everything they've fought so much for.

- What do you suggest?
- Show an inclination

to please them.

And they'll make the way easy.

But if they see you as an
enemy, they'd have no mercy.

These are the borders we
signed in Granada for Naples.

Here they were crossed
by King Louis' hordes

while you and my daughter were his guests.

What is it?

News from Naples, Your Majesty.

We'll continue some other time.

I understood that you wanted to
update me in the matters of the reign.

Little by little, beloved son.
Little by little.

Do you not trust me?

Loavo. I'm asking you.

I've wanted to have you
by my side for so long

and I only talk about the kingdom.

That is what's demanded of a sovereign.

If so much is demanded of a queen

for an heiress princess it's even more.

How can that be if one
rules and the other doesn't?

Because as a princess

you need to win the confidence
of those who'll serve you.

I'd have to fight so much to achieve that.

Your memory would shade my reign.

It will always be like that.

The work I began can't be
accomplished in a single lifetime.

Continue my work

and make your reign and
mine be one and the same thing.

My husband and I will do it that way.

I'm glad to see you so committed and happy.

They told me some things that worried me.

There are always things to arrange

to find the path two strangers must share.

So should I not be worried?

You chose the best for me by choosing him.

And for your kingdom,
if I love him so much...

Our servants will love him more.

You've calmed my heart.

And your words encourage me to
make you part of my biggest wish.

Bring your children to Castile.

Your wish is also mine

but it was my husband who thought
they were still too little to travel.

Talk with him. I know he
listens to you in everything.

He's a man who likes to keep his decisions.

And you, who will rule

you need to be able to lead
with your good judgment.

You'll find the way to make
him see your desires as his own.

I'll talk with the prince.
We'll see what he decides.

Ganoza couldn't resist
the siege and has fallen.

Gonzalo had to retreat to Barnetta.

The French are far
greater in number than us.

By thousands, Your Majesty.

They have better weapons and
don't lack artillery, on the contrary.

If we don't send reinforcements,
not even Gonzalo's skill

would save our interests in Naples.

There can be no reinforcements
without money and there is little.

Then we need to get it from where we can!

The Aragonese courts will gather
for the princess and prince's vows.

That's the moment to ask for what you need.

Convincing them to name
Juana and get funds for the war...

it's not a simple thing.

I called you because you
know Flanders court well.

And it's well known that you
have earned their appreciation.

- I hope I can give you good service.
- I am convinced.

Tell me, how can I earn their favor?

Do you mean to smooth the sharp things
that arose with the prince's entourage?

That and much more.

We need to win their friendship.

The archduke's in particular?

You need to win only
one person's friendship

and he will give it.

Busleyden.

I would have to give a lot to
get it, and I won't do so much.

Your Majesty, don't
doubt paying for that prize.

The archbishop has inspired
his decisions since he was little.

Is his influence so great?

Busleyden dictates Philip's thought

when he doesn't decide.

And he usually does it with good results.

I appreciate your advice, Juan Manuel.

I wasn't mistaken by calling you.

I want to ask you something else.

Keep an eye on Philip.

Pay attention to everything he does,
and think about Castile's interests.

I appreciate your stance, Henry.

Even if I wasn't beside your brother,
the Prince of Wales, for very long

we both shared the grief of his loss.

Will you abandon the kingdom?

I only know that
I won't decide my destiny.

But I'm afraid it must be that way.

I loved this kingdom.

England loves you back.

In these moments of pain,
it's a relief to have you here.

It's a big comfort for me.

You're my daughter.

And my desire is to keep
you by our side as so.

I'll do what you
and my parents decide.

We should take a few months

before we decide your future.

Maybe you're carrying a
son of the prince in your womb

and there wouldn't be anything to discuss.

That'd be a relief on which we can't count.

Not even you can tell that.

We need to wait some time.

I came to your kingdom untouched.

And so I am still.

Do you mean your marriage
wasn't consummated?

Your son Arthur's weakness
made that impossible.

Then everything changes.

And it's easier.

We'll wait to see what the midwife says.

My lord, I've never lied and I
don't see why should I do it now.

Don't think I doubt your word.

Don't do that.

Because you can be as sure about that

as that no one will prove that in my body.

Is something worrying you, Father?

His Majesty is quiet because
if he shared his worries here

he'd make me participate in them

and that's something he doesn't want.

- How can you say such a thing...
- The prince of Asturias is right.

And isn't it strange to hide information
from someone whom you just named heir.

Explain to us what's happening here.

King Louis is defeating us in Naples,
and we don't know how to fight him.

What would you do in my place?

Would you discuss it
with your enemy's friend?

If I ruled in Castile

and if things were as you say..

I'd be thinking about how to
make peace with the king of France.

For our sake

we still have long time before you're king.

You have a strange manner
of trying to win over the prince.

I won't do it at the expense
of risking my people.

I saw him talking with Cordura.

In fact, I don't think I
different than him.

Do you want me to pact with France

who has started a war from
not having respected our pacts?

Maybe it's time for the
archduke to command our reign.

He and Juana will be our successors.

It's time for you to have that in
mind and ease the consequences.

We still need to wait
and see if you're right.

Does the queen trust in you so much?

You can be sure you'll soon
receive news from Castile.

Despite my problem with the kings?

Blessed problem.

The balm that heals the
wound will be at the level.

If it's as you say, you'll sure
have a reward in Flanders.

You're on your way to being as
needed in Flanders as you are in Castile.

Everything in the interest of the archduke.

And in our own benefit.

I admire you. Your sincerity

drives close to insanity.

Then allow me to offer some advice.

You, whom the archduke trusts...

make him consider what
I'm going to suggest to you.

For the moment, it'd be convenient

for everyone to see that our
prince serves the kings' will.

Yes, it will be convenient.

I know what he must
offer so no one doubts him

without renouncing his own desires.

Philip supporting our plans in Naples...

that's not something we should expect
from the heir of Castile and Aragon.

He doesn't give up.

He insists on uniting our destinies

and making his son
Charles the king of Europe.

It doesn't affect you.

It'd only be possible if he
marries him to your daughter.

If God doesn't give me a son.

For the moment, you already have an
ally and confidante in Ferdinand's court.

Add that to our clear
superiority on the battlefield

and the ware over Naples is already won.

Poor Catherine.

She just got married,
and she's a widow already.

The Lord has had little
mercy on our family.

Resignation, Your Majesty.

There you'll find relief.

May our daughter find it in her family.

We'll claim the princess
so she comes back soon.

- Won't there be a problem?
- Not one.

If they respect the marital agreement

the princess will be given back.

And the dowry as well. The
agreement states that, right?

If the princess comes back,
it will come back with her.

What matters now is Catherine's welfare.

Let's speed up her return. We'll
have time to care about everything else.

Are you okay?

Don't worry.

Take care of our concerns.

In the meanwhile, his eminence and I
will take care of the mass for the dead.

Maybe disgrace brings us something good.

Having the dowry back

will help us to send the
reinforcements Gonzalo needs in Naples.

May God forgive me.

My dead son-in-law will be the
best ally we'll have in this war.

For what they've told me...

if you're a virgin

your marriage with my son
could be declared invalid.

Nothing could stop your parents
from reclaiming you and your dowry.

Despite the grief it will cause me,
for I consider myself your father.

I could accept you
being taken from my side.

But as the king of England

I won't ever give back that money,
which we need so much here.

So it will be good for
everyone if I stay by your side.

Make a choice then

with my parents' agreement,
and I'll obey in everything.

Will you keep on stating
that you're a virgin?

How would I not if that's the truth?

Will you let ounmidwife examine you?

Only if you take away my life first.

Well. We'll decide on that.

In the meanwhile, you must understand
you can't have your pension as widow.

There's no widow if
the marriage is invalid.

Look for a solution and may it be fast.

The king will retract his protection.

That's right.

From now on, we'll only
count on our own resources.

And which are those resources?

In the absence of other armies,
we could use German mercenaries.

How many could we pay?

Come in. We were talking about Naples.

I wanted to talk about that too.

It really affects me what happens there.

I won't deny my friendship
with the king of France.

You'd do it in vain.

But above, stands my
position of heir prince.

Don't doubt that.

I owe you my apologies.

And now I give them.

- I didn't come to you desiring that.
- What do you desire, then?

If circumstances finally lead
you to look for peace with France

I know who your best ambassador could be.

With my loyalty to you and
my friendship with King Louis

I'd get better conditions
than everyone else.

I appreciate your generous offer.

And I'd make good use of it if I needed it.

But Aragonese troops will soon
land on the coasts of Salerno.

Don't doubt that it will
change the course of this war.

I'm glad about that.

Victory brings more
good than a forced pact.

Your Majesty, which is the landing
you promised to the prince of Asturias?

I thought you'd spend this
great day going out hunting.

You were right. There'll be time for
writing when we're back in the North.

That will need to wait.

Soon there will be things
I won't be able to do.

Another child?

God blesses this family!

My husband, let's make
our happiness complete.

Make them bring our children.
Let's gather them in Castile with us.

Is that the queen's idea?

Your desire is mine.

But I can't make that happen.

In Castile I'm only surrounded
by insults and disdain.

No, no. You're confusing the strong
character of my people with an insult.

They all humiliate me by reminding me
of my secondary role as your husband.

And your father...

you saw yourself how he
keeps me out of state matters.

I'll make all of that change.

I know you will. When you can.

And don't worry about our children.

As soon as we're named in
Aragon, we'll go back to Flanders.

We must get this letter
to the king of France.

It's urgent.

Are you okay, Isabel?

- I'll delay the trip to Aragon.
- No.

You need to leave.

We can't repeat what
happened at Isabel's oath.

- You go.
- And leave you like this?

I'll go when everything's in place.

So I can regain the strength
the journey will take from me now.

We need to avoid the smallest
opposition to our plans in the court.

How are you, Mother?

I'll talk with Cabrera about
the changes to our travels.

Don't worry when there's no need.

It's just a little weakness.

And the years, passing by without
a chance to do anything about it.

So should I not worry?

Have you talked with your
husband about your children?

Can we welcome them in Castile?

Mother, you need to know God
blessed me with another pregnancy.

Your first son to be born in Castile!

That will force us to go back to Flanders

as soon as we're named in Aragon.

If we spend more time, as we would like

the pregnancy will advance

and would stop us from traveling.

We'd need to wait for the birth and..

And maybe the rearing.

And what is the problem?
Have your child in Castile.

Let us take care of him.

The prince can't neglect his
duties in Flanders for so long.

You stay, then.

My husband won't allow me.

No good husband will.

Your news has made me very happy.

Your Eminence

I called you lo^talk
about an important matter

about which I can't do
anything without your consent.

My Catholic Majesty, I'm at your service.

It will be an honor for me
to accomplish your desires.

Accept then, the bishopric of Coria.

You honor me as much as
you surprise me, Your Majesty.

From Flanders, my daughter
asked for a reward for you.

A request we wanted to formalize long ago.

In all the courts I know,
when a reward is given

there's always a service
expected in exchange.

In this case, it's the reward
that demands the service.

The reforms of the church, and the rents...

demand you to stay for a while in Castile.

I don't know if your duties in Flanders

would allow you to delay your return.

As you know, I must
be close to Prince Philip.

Can't he take care of
his duties without you?

Everyone would be pleased
if they delayed their return.

Do you think that's possible?

The bishopric of Coria, you said.

That's what I asked of the Holy Father.

You can count on it.

Are you leaving? Everything is in order.

There is news from England.

King Henry wants to marry our princess.

He's three times her age. And he's her
husband's father. Why is he asking that?

Does he think our alliance is weak?

He's afraid to lose the
money from the dowry.

My lady, the princess'
marriage wasn't consummated.

The council will decide
about her virginity.

Henry wants to marry her so he doesn't
need to give her or the dowry back.

We can't accept such infamy.

The king has withdrawn your
daughter's widow pension.

He would allow the princess
of Wales to suffer poverty?

- Is my daughter his hostage?
- He wants to force our decision.

Catherine will stay in England
as a widow or as queen.

We'll send Fuensalida. He'll negotiate
with the king and take care of her.

We'll wait for his return
to make a decision.

Don't worry.
If the devil twisted anything

I swear I'd go to England
myself and get our daughter back.

[Ludlow, England.]

It's the last firewood we have.

We haven't been warm for days

and the food has begun to diminish.

How can King Henry be so mean?

You shouldn't talk that way.

He's the king.

It's not the behavior of a king to
allow a princess to live like this.

If your marriage would've been consummated

we wouldn't be going through all this.

But it wasn't.

And what does that matter?

It wouldn't be a problem
for other husbands.

And you'd live at least, instead
of dying of cold and hunger.

Even if I die. I'd never lose
my dignity or commit sin.

We'll need to wait for
the council's decision.

And until then?

Are these the jewels your mother gave you?

You'll turn them into food and firewood.

You can't get rid of them.

Besides it will only
last us for a few weeks.

What we can't fix by ourselves

God will take care of it.

So the queen is giving you a bishopric.

Things have started changing
for our men in this kingdom.

Do you think that as well?

It's not a small thing,
what she offered.

Considering the rents of the church.

And the titles they've given
you aren't a small thing either.

Maybe your disposition to the crown
should change to a more friendly one.

Juan Miguel is right, Your Majesty.

It's the time to enjoy
the kings' generosity.

I trust in you.

But I think the joy over
your new title is blinding you.

Or at least, one of your eyes.

Time will tell.

But let me give you some last advice

now that my new duties
won't allow me to go with you.

Be patient with your return to Flanders.

Let your son be born in Spain.

That will gain you the favor of many.

Including the kings.

Even though I don't like it,
I find sense in your words.

But I can promise nothing for now.

I'm sure your good judgment will
end the good work we've started.

In the end, resorting to the
queen's generosity will cost me.

For the time, I won't have
you with me in Aragon.

Each of us should take care
of our duties in these kingdoms.

You can easily find me in the court.

During the trip

trust in Don Juan Miguel
as you would trust me.

Be careful.

Many will be upset by the
title you have been given.

Don't worry. I have the queen's favor.

I didn't call you to listen
to me in confession.

I want to explain to you why I gave
the bishopric of Coria to Busleyden.

You don't need to explain anything to me..

That's right. Your Eminence.

For as a queen, I only
need to do it to God.

But I need to ask you something.

And I need you to know my reasons first.

I'm afraid they won't be so different
from the ones that came before.

I judged them with the same rigor.

Do you make decisions concerning
Castile's church behind my back?

Don't expect me to celebrate.

Do you think I'm pleased by the naming?

I beg for the day that
politics serve religion!

But I won't live long enough to see it!

And today everything is in service
of politics! Church in the first place!

There's only one thing that
matters, Your Eminence!

That Juana stays in Castile!

And do you think you'll achieve
that by giving titles? Your Majesty?

Your Majesty.

Listen to me well.

Hard times are coming.

This kingdom needs your tenacity.

Your honesty.

Even your stubbornness.

The crown can't be lesser
in your eyes than the church.

I need you, Your Eminence.
I need to count on you.

You know I'll always be loyal to you.

Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

Help! Help! The queen!

Call the doctor! Quickly!

Why don't you light the fire?

Aren't you cold? Catherine
will light it if you'd like.

I hope this book relieves you
in these moments of sadness.

It will give off some heat while it burns.

But we'd like a piece of meat even more.

Go and do what I told you.

I thank you for your concern.

It was the best gift I could get.

We need to tell the king.

Your Majesty.

Message from Castile.

What happened?

It's... the queen.

[La Seo Cathedral.]

King Ferdinand asks for your understanding.

These courts will receive a settlement

and a proper explanation

for his forced absence.

You've named Your Majesties as
successors to the crown of Aragon.

Now, under the protection of
the prince of Gerona, Don Philip

the king commands us to discuss
the other issues that brought us here.

No message has been
received from Busleyden?

None, Your Majesty.

If the king abandoned
the courts in this way...

the queen must be very

Maybe it's God's command that our
reign starts sooner than we expected.

It might be that way, Your
Majesty. You need to be ready.

Are you afraid'of something?

If the queen dies..

The king of Aragon will turn
into your strongest enemy.

It'd be understandable that he won't
see the succession with good eyes.

He'd be capable of anything to stop
me from being proclaimed in Castile.

He fears your influence over the princess

may put the government in your hands.

- And it won't be different.
- But realize that

the king won't wait for the end to act.

Maybe you're right.

You need to go to Castile
as soon as possible.

Others are deciding what
will be of'your future there.

I'll give the orders to have
everything ready for our departure.

No. You need to stay in Aragon

to make sure that the courts
take care of their duties.

Do you care more about
my mother's health than I do?

You're the heiress of the crown.

And it's health is the
one you must worry about.

Above everything.

Your mother wouldn't doubt it.

I'll go with you.

Nothing you can say will change my mind.

We've living a crucial moment.

- Each of us must take their place.
- You're hurting me.

I don't want to see in the queen the
weakness I hated so much in the woman.

Is it that serious?

Leave me alone with her.

Let's get out.

We need to talk.

I'm dying.

God wants to take me now

- when everything's at risk.
- Get some rest.

You need to keep up your strength.

If He's good...

He'll give me some time

to secure the future of the kingdom.

Be quiet, for God's sake.

Nothing will happen.

There was a time...

when I would have died in peace

having done good for my
kingdom and my family.

Trust in me.

I only trust in you

and in God.

Then don't worry.

I swear nothing will risk the future
you planned for Aragon and Castile.

Our effort will continue our lives.

Loving you has been my life.

So fight then.

As you've always fought.

Do it for me.

I'm so afraid.

11 can't be possible.

Isn't the king of England a worthy
husband for a princess of Castile?

You're the father of her husband.

If the princess is a virgin

her marriage is invalid.

Nothing goes against God's will.

You're almost three
times the princess' age.

Are you mocking me?

Do you think you'll convince me that
it's an inconvenience for your kings?

Someday you'll leave
the princess as a widow

and we'd be in the same
position we're in now.

I'll leave a widow queen.
That's very different.

A widow queen who wouldn't have
given birth to the heir of England

because your son Henry
would be your successor.

You have to admit that it'd be
ignoring the princess' destiny.

And with it the alliance
agreed upon by both kingdoms.

What do your kings demand?

That the princess, with
all her rights and dowry

go back to her parents' lands.

Forget about that!
That's not possible!

- Look for another solution.
- What?

You rejected my offer.

Now it's your turn

to present yours.

My Majesties are awaiting their daughter.

Patience is a great virtue.

And there's no one with more
virtues in all of Christendom

than your kings.

If the queen dies

think about what we'd be facing.

Two reigns turning their
backs to each other again.

And the crown of Castile

on the head of a traitor.

The French have
reinforced the cost of Salerno.

They're waiting for the
landing you mentioned to Philip.

And that will never take place.

I knew it.

Despicable dog.

He didn't wait to tell the French.

If God takes the queen...

the traitor will command
Castile against me.

I won't permit that.

Even if I need to get rid
of him with my own hands.

It's not your son-in-law's merit
that he's in such a good position.

It's due to Busleyden's advice.

Philip won't even know
where his right hand is.

Busleyden is a man we can buy.

The queen demonstrated it well.

No, Chacon. We need
to take care of the traitor.

And there's no time to play easy games.

You've come on a good day, Your Eminence.

The prince's visit has
brought us joy already.

Do they share readings?

It's not the first time the prince
has brought books to my lady.

But today he brought sausages too.

With you here, our privations
have come to an end.

My lady, they're waiting for us.

Alcaniiz, city of concord...

is happy to approve new taxes
to maintain the army of the king.

With the guarantee of removing
the tax when the purpose for it

is finally accomplished.

Do you see truth in it

and give the order for it
the document to be written

to wait for the signature of the king?

Your Majesty?

Your Majesty, you can't
leave courts like this.

Am I your princess or your prisoner?

How much time should I waste in
matters that don't deserve my attention?

You can't insult the
courts of Aragon like this.

Saddle my horse!

I swear I'll reach Castile,
barefoot if needed!

The queen is awake. The
medic says she's going to make it.

You can be calm.

God heard my prayers.

If your Lord hears you,
then pray harder.

I know the bishop of Coria...

is gravely ill.

God...

is looking for me.

While in Castile...

I saw a sign.

You must live.

What would I do without you?

I instructed you to make
a good king out of you.

Listen to me.

You'll only rule over this land...

if you live in this land.

Love this kingdom.

God wants it to be yours.

You can't die!

My Lord!

Your Highness.

I fear for you! React!

What will I do without him?

I've always followed his advice.

The first thing is to reclaim your wife.

The princess is the biggest
protection you have in this kingdom.

Can I really trust you?

Juana didn't hesitate to leave the
courts and come to be with her husband.

When I pointed that out. She
said she was following my example.

God gave her intelligence,
but not common sense.

Aragon will never forgive this bravado.

At least Fuensalida was able to
provide Catherine with safe passage.

Does that bother you?

I wanted to see my daughter

but maybe our ambassador found
a solution that will please us all.

- Speak.
- He suggested marrying...

Catherine to Prince Henry.

Her husband's brother?

Manuel of Portugal,
married to our two daughters.

- Henry is a boy. How old is he?
- Eleven.

Six years younger than the princess.

Many years would have
to pass to see some results.

That's the best solution.

Catherine will recover her
political height and influence.

She'll become princess of Wales...

and then queen of England.

They won't return our daughter to us.

Are you planning to go to
England and take her by force?

That master of blackmailing
calls himself a king.

He only wants the dowry.

We must pursue nothing
other than Catherine's welfare.

We won't reinforce our troops in Naples.

The money we were expecting
from England isn't going to come.

Without us, Gonzalo won't have
any chances against the French.

I know.

I'd prefer to guide my men
to battle than be in Castile.

Let's trust in Gonzalo and
the fact that God is with him.

- I'll write him a letter.
- No. Chacon.

I have to write the letter and
explain the situation to him.

It's not nickels and
dimes that are at stake.

You have lost weight, ma'am.

You must take better care of your health.

It's normal that your son's death
made me unwilling to keep eating.

But don't worry.

I'm starting to eat better.

Your Highness.

I have a message from my lords.

More complaints?

On their behalf, I'll make
you an offer to overcome this

gruesome situation.

Which part will suffer the most?

None, Your Highness.

You're afraid we poisoned your food, right?

I always lose my appetite
just before going out on a trip.

So you're leaving. Where to?

We are going back to Flanders.

We've already fulfilled the
duties that dragged us here.

You want our daughter
to travel in her state?

Perhaps you want my
grandson to be born in France.

Your Majesty...

we came to your kingdom
to become your heirs.

You'll have to put us
in a jail to keep us here.

Don't ask me for impossible deeds.

You know my place is beside my husband

This kingdom that you'll inherit
from us belongs to you both.

- Make him understand.
- How?

My father treats him as an enemy!

- Your dad simply wants to...
- Is it noble

to retain a foreign prince
with no interest in this land?

You should be thankful. My
husband's sanity and his love for me

are making him respect us.

Should a mother listen her
daughter talking like this?

Prove to me that I'm wrong.

I swear nothing would make
me happier than being wrong.

He is just a boy.

And my husband's brother.

Prince Henry has arrived at the palace.

He is on his way up here, Your Highness.

Does he know?

The king approved it gladly.

I'd say he was willing to
share the news with his son.

Your Highness, it's the best for everyone.

You'd fulfill your duties.

Your destiny was to rule England

and you will.

That's my dad's will.

The queen will share the
indignation this would cause the pope.

She asked me to talk with King Henry.

In a few years, you'll be my wife.

And I...

I'll be the most lucky man in England.

Is it true that the French
have defeated us?

In Seminara. The news has just arrived.

I feel as if I wielded the
swords that killed my men.

It's time to negotiate for peace.

Aragon, and also your spirit, needs it.

Just like he told you, you should
send Philip to negotiate with Prince Luis.

Just listen to me.
If we must see her in France

it's better if she goes on our behalf.

- King Louis will like it that way.
- Don't fool yourself.

- We will never be able to trust him.
- I know.

But Juana will stay in Castile.

Do you intend to separate them?

- Do you think Philip will accept that?
- He won't oppose.

If we ask for it, he'll try to satisfy us

since we would've trusted in
him and followed his advice.

Without his influence, Juana
will keep getting weaker.

Meanwhile, our daughter
will earn his confidence.

Perhaps we can turn Juana
into the queen we all want.

Let's try.

May God listen to us.
There is a lot at stake.

Prince Philip, ambassador of France?

Don't worry, Chacon.

Maybe we will all be
satisfied with these maneuvers.

Except Philip himself.

- What do you mean?
- Let him promise what he can't fulfill.

He would lose the
friendship with the French.

Let's make both of them
think that we're at their service.

Meanwhile, we will get
ready to win this war.

Write to Gonzalo and
explain something very clearly.

He must follow only the orders
coming directly from his king.

Give the presentation
letters to Gerona's prince.

I'll negotiate with the
French on your behalf.

You're the heir of Aragon.

Your interests are our interests.

Will you dismiss your husband
while wearing those clothes?

Relieve the grief inside my heart.

- Take me with you.
- You must stay in Castile.

- Our child must be born here.
- I beg you!

Get up.

I'm begging you!

Don't you see I will die without you?

I have to go.

I know I'm leaving you and
my child in the best hands.

Husband! No!

- Leave me! Leave me, I said!
- My daughter, the...

Don't let-anyone get close!

Alone! I want to be alone!

I want to be dead!
