Original subtitles

"You must urgently check on his majesty.

" - The court speaks. - The court always speaks.

They also spoke with the previous one.

What happened to Luis's mother? - But you don't know?

That?

There are two things that Felipe de

Borbón is unable to live without, one

is a confessor, the other is a woman.

"Your king was crazy.

" I would like to see a Jew.

Maybe you have one closer than you think.

Your son has cut our expenses.

What do you want me to do?

Against?

- I am your king. - But you are not the only one, your majesty.

Spectacular.

Luisa, I love you with all my heart.

Lock her up! I don't want to see her again.

You are beautiful.

This time locked up has helped me a lot.

I feel both regret and love for your majesty.

Majesty.

His parents have arrived for the posing.

Where is my husband?

I want to see the king. I am the queen.

I demand to see him.

Hello!

I don't want chickpeas, I ate yesterday.

Is she deaf or what? Do you know who I am?

No, no, no, wait, wait.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

Could you bring me a book?

I don't care, whoever it is.

Poetry, picaresque, scientific treatises...

Chickpea recipes, I don't care.

Anything to stop counting stones.

Two hundred and seventy-one.

This stew is shit!

No, no! Keep going, keep going!

Where is this girl?

I'm going to tell you, but slowly.

Father, thank you for coming.

Did you have a good trip? - Yes. Yes, yes.

In fact, I'm glad I am.

Besides my job, this was the only thing I liked.

You don't have to talk and they portray you taller and more handsome.

Child! Child!

The crown is not touched. - Father, father, father, leave me to me.

Fernando, we do not wear

the crown, we are not English.

This belongs to God.

So.

Are you better than God?

The well sings to you, brother.

How funny.

Could it be placed on your brand?

- Yes. - Majesty Don Felipe.

Oh. - I?

Yes.

And Luisa, where is she?

- She is unwell. - Unwell from what?

It expels liquid from the back and solid from the front.

Ah, how nice.

They had told me that she was very happy

playing with piglets and the maids. Happy.

I don't know what you're talking about. - Maybe it's a tabardillo.

Has any delegation from America come?

I would have a cup of chocolate.

Maybe she's pregnant.

Oh yeah?

Let's see if that's true.

Hey tiger? Oh! - Oh!

What a shame about a garden.

Since I've been gone, look how he is.

They have pruned the rose bushes.

Tell the gardener to wake up or leave.

- Clear. - Your Highness!

Highness!

- Smell of foie, burgundy, despair.

Saint Simon.

Count to 120 and come find me.

I need to speak with your highness.

No wonder, I have heard rumors

of a certain marital disagreement.

No. Not agreeing on the name of a

first-born child is a marital

disagreement, this is much more serious.

If you send us to the last spanking of Versailles.

A slap that your highness was going to make a queen.

Well, where there is no... - Free Luisa.

I? Oh, if I could...

the garden would not be like this.

Everyone knows who is still pulling the strings.

He is not the new king, the old one never did.

If the regent of France finds out that his daughter has been locked up...

Haven't you told him yet?

I'm trying to avoid a war.

Oh.

Cookie?

Majesty.

I have to go back, the painter is there.

I am very sorry that I cannot help you, it is not in my power.

Do what you consider.

Ah!

I have seen my wife frolicking, in this same bed.

But she didn't frolic alone.

Unfortunately, it is usually the most common, Your Majesty,

with another man.

No, worse.

Animal?

Much worse, Serrano.

The jester?

With the maid.

More soup?

What a humiliation, really.

Yes, I suppose it must have been a bit confusing, honestly.

If... Serrano,

Please, will you know how to keep the secret?

What secret, your majesty?

What a secret?

The one I just told you about.

Am I talking to that painting?

No...

Serrano, I saw my wife eating a huge and monstrous colt.

- Your Majesty, Your Majesty...

I don't think I've heard anything.

- - Ah! - There.

Now yes, Serrano.

Yeah? Sure?

- Now yes. - Clear.

- With the eye. - With his eye like that.

Clear.

- How big you are. - Great you. Great you.

Very good.

And unique.

Thank goodness.

Majesty.

Oh!

Hey, Serrano.

Yes, your majesty?

Do you have secrets too?

You can trust me.

None, your majesty.

Sorry, no... I don't have one.

My family is waiting for me.

Okay. Well.

I'll see you tomorrow. - No, tomorrow is Sabbath... do.

Sabbat... do and no work.

Well with God. - Yes, of course, of course.

With God.

With the good one.

And with the saints and the Virgin.

Majesty.

We haven't turned on the

fountains, but as soon as the

good weather arrives that will be a spectacle.

Father. - Son.

Majesty Don Luis.

Put yourself on your mark, please, if you please.

This last week I have tried to change three laws.

They have all knocked them down.

- Because you're a negago.

- Fernando!

Don't you think that's a little strange?

Well, the legislative procedures are very complicated, son.

Oh yeah? I just feel like...

like a black hand lurking over my reign.

The one who has fallen on this country with you is black.

Fernando!

Will you shut up or will I slap your wig off?

But what are you going to remove? - Majesty Don Luis.

Put yourself on your mark, please, if you please.

You are pathetic. - Here?

Your majesty won't know who threatens my will, right?

I wouldn't worry too much.

Principles are always hard.

Your father's were disastrous, right?

At least you didn't have to cut necks in Almansa.

You have to earn them.

Of course I earn them, if the plebs adore me.

To the politicians.

With gifts, with a strong hand...

I understand that now you are more worried about other things.

No?

Your wife's health?

That of your marriage.

Lesbian. - Why don't you go fuck yourself?

Oh, no more this lack of respect.

If you need me, I'm in my chambers. Come on, guys.

What a character.

Oh, excuse me, your majesty.

- Follow me. - Sorry.

Majesty. - It's not necessary.

I help you. - I can.

Don't worry. - No need, let me.

Shall we continue tomorrow?

Please clean the materials, we'll continue tomorrow.

Good morning.

Last night I finally managed to sleep.

It was because of the book.

Reading calms the spirit.

Yes, the truth is...

It calmed me down quite a bit, yes.

So, well, thank you very much.

You know why I'm here, right?

It's not my job.

I did something bad.

I sinned, seriously.

Who says it?

They.

And you, what do you say?

That I don't know.

Here you can find the answer.

It was not a Bible.

You will not have read a Bible.

This delays two minutes. - Oh.

I'll have it checked.

This one here was given to me by the Emperor of Japan.

They are open, the Japanese I say.

The Chinese don't, the Chinese... But the Japanese do.

And they abdicate.

The one there now, for example, his father left him the position.

Not here.

Here we cling to the throne until we have no blood left.

But not you.

This country, Luis,

it is impossible to change it.

I tried, but there was no time.

Well, little by little, father.

Don't let them walk all over you, do you hear me?

Do you trust anyone?

I trust you.

In me?

Yes, in you.

Oh.

Good.

Very good.

"Voila"!

There are a lot of books here.

Some could be considered immoral.

Immoral, he says.

There is nothing immoral in art.

For me the only immoral thing is hurting another person.

These are stories that help us be less alone.

You don't speak like a Carmelite.

Do you know many?

How about the family portrait?

Slow.

Who plays me?

A piece of wood.

Ah! The Duchess of Montellano?

There's a guard who spends the day scratching his ass.

Do you want to see it?

The guy will be dirty.

Well, that's how he spends his afternoons.

Oh my goodness, but he's going to skin himself.

Well this month he doesn't get paid.

Luis, you couldn't give me what I wanted.

But because I don't even know what I want.

You have a job waiting for you since the cradle, Luis.

My sisters played to see who would marry the best man.

And my father was obsessed with stopping being regent and being king.

I live surrounded by people who are very clear about what they want.

But not me.

I'm not like that.

However, I have to follow rules that I

don't respect, created by people I don't

know, to get something that doesn't interest me.

I'm not interested in that life.

Is that a sin? I don't know.

It's just that I'm exhausted.

When I was six years old I stole my father's favorite watch.

Yes, I put it in a bag of manure.

The entire palace went crazy looking for him here, there.

How naughty.

I returned it to him after three years.

He said, "Wow!

"My son likes watches as much as I do.

" So we started collecting them.

I don't like watches, I just

wanted him to pay attention to me.

No, no, no, no.

It's a trap.

A trap? What a trap?

You are no longer queen, but you are still a strategist.

If I tell this to Luisa's father, he will be furious.

His fury will cause a diplomatic

crisis and another war.

Another war that France cannot afford.

His regency hangs by a thread and this...

Daughter, never run after a man.

Let them chase you. - Okay.

This would be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

And your highness knows it.

So who will be the new king?

The young Louis XV is still a child.

So next in line would be...

your husband?

Before he couldn't be king of France because he was king of Spain, but...

now that he has abdicated...

My husband doesn't want to be king.

No, not from Spain.

And from France?

He is French.

And I hate Segovia.

You don't have that much power. - I don't know.

That's why I need a... ally.

someone so insightful

to anticipate my movements.

Someone who can convey the exact words.

Someone who wants to be Prime Minister of France.

I don't know...

Does anyone come to mind?

- - Oh my goodness! - I'm leaving, the painter is waiting for me.

Tell him to make the piece of wood pretty.

And, Luis,

Don't forget, it's your painting.

But it's not my family.

You are not there, nor my mother.

Since he left everything has been a disaster.

I miss her.

We are a family of incapable people.

Don't say that.

My father is crazy and I'm going to be crazy too.

- That's not true. - Yes, yes it is.

Since I've known you I've seen visions.

That?

I see how I rise above the ground,

The paintings turn, talk to me and...

From your chest I see how rose petals come out.

But, Luis, that's because you were in love.

No, it's not that, it's...

This family...

This... This blood...

We are condemned.

It's a matter of time before I end up like my father.

Luis, wait.

You will never be like your father.

Your father has done horrible things.

Luis, your father killed your mother.

Everyone knows it except you.

I didn't want you to know, but you deserve to know the truth.

Be quiet.

I'm sorry. - No... I don't want to listen to you.

Very sorry. - Be quiet. Leave me alone.

It is important to know the truth.

You are the worst thing that has ever happened to me!

I hate you.

I hate you!

I'm never going out.

And if I leave, it will be to go to a worse place.

Have you already decided?

The fact that?

The reason they locked you up.

Do you already know if it was a sin?

Well I don't know.

But I know that I am a better person than them, yes.

Then they can't punish you.

Well, they're outside and I'm in here.

Sister...

I always wanted to be a writer.

When I was ten years old I wrote my first story.

I gave it to my parents to read, they thought it was dirty and horrible.

What kind of mind could come up with something like that.

A week later they locked me in the convent.

How awful. Very sorry.

No, they are mine.

Yes, yes, you lent them to me.

No, I wrote them.

Look, I have many pseudonyms.

All men, of course.

Novels about gentlemen, boys with girls,

girls with girls, boys with boys.

I have one of some cousins ​​who know each other in Segovia

and it gets dark, they are in a haystack... Well, it starts...

Luisa, it doesn't matter where they lock you up,

you are free

You decide what to do with your life.

Hurry up.

Everybody out.

Everybody out.

Everybody out!

But, Your Majesty, we are left without light...

All!

- Luis... - You too.

What a character.

Not you.

How did my mother die?

As?

My mother.

How did he die?

Well, he died of tuberculosis...

the poor thing

Tell me the truth.

How are you doing?

Majesty...

We sent the queen to Navarra to rest.

A change of air, water... Because of his illness.

But you went to visit her and now...

He's on tape again. - He's on tape again.

Yes... Your Majesty, Your Majesty.

Ah!

How are you doing?

Pregnant...

again.

Praise God.

The previous birth was very hard

and is not yet ready for the postpartum period.

Hey?

Oh yes, yes.

Can I come in now?

Your Majesty, the queen is seriously ill.

You have to pray.

Majesty...

Higgins.

The queen has received the holy sacraments.

Can I come in now?

Your Majesty, this week

you have satisfied your appetites every day.

I am such a lucky man.

Maybe you should make an exception tonight.

Let's say there are some court ladies

that they would be willing

to serve his royal majesty.

Do you want me to fornicate with others?

For the sake of your wife.

It's a sin!

No, your majesty.

It's charity.

I am a Christian king and I love my wife.

Oh!

So.

Peaceful.

Ah!

Like this, my queen, like this.

Ah!

Are you sure you don't want to say goodbye to her?

On Mondays we hunt.

You are sick.

Clear.

Help me, Luis.

Help me.

Remove your hooves from my throne.

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

You were right.

You are free, you can go out.

I propose you a deal.

We Spaniards are bad at making deals.

But I'm French.

We both know that ours is impossible.

But you deserve to be happy and so do I.

So if they want a king and queen they will have them.

"During the day, we will be the perfect marriage.

You will dedicate yourself to governing

and I will dedicate myself to my obligations as a wife.

We don't have to do things like your parents.

We are not like them.

And at night everyone will do their life.

You will have absolute freedom,

but me too.

What? Is there a deal or no deal?

You'll see how it turns out well.

You trust."

Carlos, Fernando, really...

The last time I say it.

It's that one. - Pesao.

Carlos...
