Here is the treaty giving you,

I grant you in perpetuity,

They...

537
00:40:08,031 --> 00:40:11,820
They have no charity
in their souls.

538
00:40:14,787 --> 00:40:16,244
They simply want
to get rid of him.

539
00:40:18,416 --> 00:40:22,251
It's true.
And yet, you must
understand their fear.

540
00:40:23,338 --> 00:40:24,374
Hmm.

541
00:40:24,464 --> 00:40:26,126
Not only for themselves,

542
00:40:26,215 --> 00:40:28,582
but for Wessex and England.

Surely they can see that
Alfred is their best chance.

550
00:41:08,257 --> 00:41:12,752
And if they care about
Wessex and England,

551
00:41:13,388 --> 00:41:15,926
then they must care
about Alfred!

What have you done?

553
00:41:26,567 --> 00:41:27,774
I don't believe

554
00:41:28,695 --> 00:41:32,655
that you have ever accepted
your brother as King.

You would always
be a danger to him.
