All language subtitles for Isabel S03E06 - Reina de toda la península (1080p BluRay x265 HEVC 10bit AAC Vertag)

I'm Margaret of Habsburg.

Previously...

Before your court,
I happily declare myself your wife.

Father, the sentinels have informed of
an attack on our port by flagless ships.

- To what do I owe the honor?
- Rome is calling for you.

It's not wise to leave your army
without its key men for too long.

No. Only for 10 days.

I've come to beg you to grant
the royal favor to a prisoner.

My brother.

Your grace is infinite.

You pressured the judge on this case
into finding the defendant innocent.

He may have listened to your pleas before

but that sin is atoned for.

But yours isn't, yet.

I beg you for your blessing.

How can we take the word of God
to those who speak such language?

Maybe we should teach them
to speak Castilian.

So you are the one who wants
to see the Indians?

I am.
Do you know where any of them ended up?

I wasted all my ducats on those savages.

Denounce me, if that
alleviates your conscience

but you will have to live with the burden

of having ruined the salvation
of thousands of souls.

I give you the Golden Rose,
by which once every year

Rome gives its appreciation
to the best of its servants.

Go to Flanders
and give her the money.

Tell her that she must not be suspicious.

I don't know the customs
in Castile, but here

it is the husband who controls
all the family fortune.

The men of the retinue did not die due to
an unfortunate plague, as I told you

but due to being abandoned
by Juana's husband.

Have a good trip, Sister. I hope
you will have a happy marriage.

I would settle for even
half of what you have.

Margarita is pregnant.

This present barely expresses
my happiness for our marriage.

Help! Help me!

His last thought was for you.

My angel. My angel.

Episode 6.

My lord, God of the heavens

we beg you for Juan's soul.

He was a most beloved son.

The pride and happiness of his parents.

Gentle, kind

and of a pure heart.

Please protect his son, my grandson.

So he shall be the hope of Castile

as his father was.

So when the day comes

that he brings peace to his kingdoms

as well as the prosperity

that we wish them to have.

So be it.

My dearly beloved Juana

it has been a long time
since you left Castile

and not one word has come
to your mother from your hand.

Not even after the death
of your brother, Juan.

I know how much you loved each other.

Maybe your pain prevents you
from sending word to us.

I have news of you
by way of third parties

but that's not enough for me

I hope that in the faraway
court of Flanders

you were able to find your happiness.

For I have no doubt

just like before you left Castile,
that you'll fulfill your duties.

May God protect and guard you.

Your mother, Isabel.

- What is it, my lady?
- I wanted to see you.

It's been barely half a day
since we saw each other.

It's too much for your captive

who holds your life more dear than her own.

This boy shall be greater than
his father and his grandfather.

- How do you know it's a boy?
- There's no other option.

Come.

Your pregnancy is the only thing
that you must think about now.

I am perfectly fine.

But nothing must put it at risk.

There has been enough tragedy,
depriving Spain of their heir.

Your brother Juan.

That is why I think it's not advisable
that I sleep with you before the birth.

But I'm fine..

You think this is not a sacrifice for me

as much as for you?

But I swear that I will make it up to you.

I just want to secure the
good health of our son.

I'll do what you want.

God has taken my only son from me.

Why, Brother Hernando?

Why?

My lady, I understand your pain.

But you cannot reproach the Almighty
for performing His will.

He has always made me go through
a tough test, as you know.

And I have always accepted it.

But I wonder what sin I've committed
to deserve this punishment.

You have four daughters
and a kingdom to rule.

You must pull yourself together.

Don't you worry.

My kingdom will never be adrift.

Tell me the news you bring from Granada.

Some priests that were chosen are being
taught to evangelize the Muslims.

The conversions are plenty.

What about the Elches, Your Eminence?

Those Christians who embraced
Mohammed's faith are tougher to convert.

They are the first ones we should've
recovered for our faith.

In time, we will manage to
convert all the Grenadians.

- Be patient.
- We don't have that time.

It's been six years since
we reconquered that city.

Lady, I am devoted to this mission.

It's impossible to change things overnight.

That's why you will have help.

The archbishop of Toledo, Francisco
de Cisneros, shall visit you soon.

- If you think that necessary.
- It is.

God expects me to give
him a Christian Granada.

What about the capitulations, my lady?

- Will they be honored?
- Don't worry, Cisneros will do it.

Maybe the Almighty will forgive
my sins if I do this.

[Amboise, France.]

Four children, and I've
buried all four of them.

How many times am I to conceive a child
that I'm bound to miscarry?

Don't get exhausted by
such thoughts, Your Majesty.

You haven't recovered yet.

How can I?

The death of the dauphin has
thrown me into despair.

What if France doesn't get the heir
that's expected, because of me?

It might not be you, Your Highness.

Whomever it is,
I am always the one to blame.

What happened?

My lord, are you all right?

Yes, yes. Get out, go away!
Let me breathe.

Tell us what happened, for God's sake.

A blow, it was only a blow.

A blow to the head when I hit
the top of the door.

- Go get the physician!
- No, that's not necessary.

- But, Majesty...
- I did not fight in all those battles

only to be defeated by a door.

Leave me!

My enemies are waiting
for me to defeat them.

Wouldn't you rather be
taken to your chambers?

Maybe you need some rest.

I said I was fine.

A door!

Defeated by a door!

Are you sure, my lord?

King Ferdinand and
Queen Isabel will not like

your request to be prince of Asturias.

You advised me to marry Juana because of
the opportunity it would give me.

Prince Juan's death gives me
an even greater opportunity.

But his sister Isabel is alive

and you shouldn't forget
King Manuel, her husband

who will not accept your attempt
to ignore the rights of his wife.

What is going on with you today?

You're like those Castilians that bring
omens and suspicion with them.

What will your father think?

He will not agree, like
so many other times.

- What about your wife?
- My wife thinks as I want her to think.

It is time to take
advantage of my marriage.

And your reservations will not stop me.

- You called me, Your Highness?
- Get ready to leave.

This letter must get to
Castile as soon as possible.

May I know what it is about?

As you see, the envelope is sealed.

So what I'm telling their majesties is
of their concern only.

I wouldn't want to leave Archduchess Juana
alone at a time like this.

- Considering her state of...
- Do not worry, sir.

The archduchess is not alone.

All of us around her are concerned
about her well-being.

At least let me say goodbye to her.

My wife doesn't want to be bothered.

With the background on her mother's side

she wants to have a good childbirth.

You worry about your trip.

Your husband seems to enjoy the game.

As much as you enjoy battle

or I enjoy reading.

You think my lord will repudiate me
if I don't give him an heir?

My lord! Charles!

So King Charles is dead?

He'll have to account for all
his excesses before the Almighty.

We will all have to, one day.

What about his succession?

There is no heir.

It all points to his cousin
Louis of Orleans taking the throne.

At least he's a man with
a better understanding.

That doesn't make our
enemy any less fearsome.

What about Queen Anne?
What will happen to her now?

It is difficult to make conjectures.
Anne is bound to marry the new king

but Louis is already
married to his cousin Joan.

The pope will not consent to
breaking up that marriage.

The pope concerns himself more
with negotiation than religion.

And Louis will not lose
his domains in Brittany.

And we don't know what will
happen to Charles' adviser either.

Remember that he was Louis'
enemy on the battlefield.

Bad idea, to have as his adviser
someone who wanted his head on a pike.

It's no easy task to predict
what future we may expect from France.

The new king has a great deal
of matters to concern him.

Let us hope they don't give him
enough time to plot against us.

- Let's hope to God.
- Let's not leave it all to Him.

Chacon, have all the troops
at the border be put on alert.

And be alert for any news from France.

I will report to you at once.

Most Reverend Eminence,
please excuse my absence in your welcome.

You arrived one day earlier
than your original notice.

Walking at a fast pace helps
to endure the rigors of time.

Your chambers are ready,
if you wish to get rest.

No, it's not necessary.
We have some matters to talk about.

As I said to the queen, I will
gladly help you in anything I can.

Is it true that you translated
a catechism to a language of the infidels?

That's right, and many in Granada have
embraced the true faith because of that.

The word of God is powerful.

With faith and patience, we will
manage to see a Christian Granada

and I'm sure that your presence here
shall be beneficial to that mission.

Have you met the wise
men of this community?

The ones they call 'Al-Faqir'?

Yes. I have met them more than once.

Call for another meeting
as soon as possible.

Is conversion not the reason
for your presence here?

Ingratiating ourselves with the key
leaders of the Muslims will always

help our main objective.

When did you land in
Castile, Captain Ojeda?

\Ne have been in the Port of Cadiz
for one week, my lord.

The journey was longer
than we thought it would be.

Tell me, what news do
you bring from the Indies?

As it has been reported

the admiral just landed on
continental territory.

Have you seen it yourself?

After several days on the sea,
we entered a big bay.

And within it, we found a
big and raging current of fresh water.

- The inlet of a river, that is.
- Yes.

A larger river than the Elbro or
the Guadalquivir, or any river in Castile.

And land richer and
greener than that of Valencia.

Are you sure it is a continent?

I'd bet my life on it, Monsignor.

I don't know any island with
a river of such proportions

and I swear that we did not reach

the lands of Catay nor Cipango's.

That is not news, my friend.

Many doubt what the
admiral insists as being true.

Monsignor, these new lands

might bring new riches
with them, and I wonder

why he's the only one who can enjoy them?

You aren't the only one
who wonders about that.

As long as Colombus is
not stripped of his privileges...

- Is that so difficult to achieve?
- Be patient, Ojeda.

The intention is there.

It's only a matter of knowing how to do it.

So why listen to the word of God?

Because God is merciful.

We always find His doors open.

He is the shelter, the refuge,
forgiveness for all of our sins.

Under His mantle, you have nothing to fear.

Even the most infamous sinner,
kneeling before Him, shall be forgiven.

Behold the majesty of Christ.

To all of you

wise and just men

these are the good tidings I bring to you.

Just as God forgives in heaven

I offer you forgiveness on Earth.

The kings of Castile grant their pardon

to those with pending problems with justice

who embrace the true faith.

Noble sirs, I trust

that you will let your
people know about that.

And now

allow me to give you some presents.

I would like to ask you

what does your Lord Jesus Christ do
when people renounce him?

That would lead to the
damnation of our soul.

I understand. Then why try to convince
us to renounce our prophet Mohammed?

I am only trying to show you how
mistaken you are in your cult.

But your kings promised to respect it.

I'm only showing you the door.
Nobody will force you to use it.

You've heard these
beautiful and flattering words.

But I will not sell my faith
for a trinket.

I see you are worried, Your.Highness.

Aren't you?

Both of our futures are on the line.

To be honest

I would love to be able
to get out of the court.

We share the same wish, Your Excellence.

His Majesty Louis, king of France!

Soon we shall see, my lady.

So the duke of Orleans finally
managed to get the crown of France.

What do you think about him?

Being an expert hunter,
you'll understand when I tell you

that Charles was a wild boar

and Louis, a fox.

I must admit that you were right.

The letter that Fuensalida shall
deliver will not please my in-laws.

I am still of the same mind.

I'm afraid you have to leave at once.

Don't worry, I will make sure
to pacify the Spaniards.

- I will explain to them...
- No, Your Excellence.

You will go to France.

A fox must be quick to understand
matters that require slyness.

Your Majesty, I hope you are

as well as circumstances allow you to be.

The whole of France is mourning
the loss of a king

and rejoicing in your crowning.

In addition, I have lost my husband.

I thought it necessary to make haste
of this meeting between the three of us.

I imagine that you are
uncertain about your future.

I would be lying if I told you otherwise.

All right then.
It is my wish that you stay at my side.

You shall keep your position.

Our past, must be subjected to
France's best interests today.

It won't be an obstacle for my reign.

I thank you, Your Majesty.

As for thee, are you aware of
the existence of a contract...

Of: course.
If my husband Charles were to die before me

without giving him a son

I am to be married to his successor

but there is the matter
of your current marriage.

On occasions such as this

the interests of the state
are above other interests.

I don't see how you can
break what the Lord has joined.

It won't be me, but the
vicar of Christ on earth.

Pope Alexander.

The contract also stipulates that
I keep my rights over Brittany's dukedom.

That's right, my lady.

Both things are equally right.

So let us wait for the
pope to speak about this

and then we may speak about marriage.

My dear friend.

Continental land.

- Is this news believable?
- I think so, Your Majesty.

What is the consequence if Vasco de Gama

returns with a ship full of spices?

Portugal did open a route to the Indies
toward the East, going around Africa.

So what's the use in going ahead with this?

Because neither the islands nor
the continent reached by Colombus

are the Indies.

Your Majesty

we must take a different
look at our enterprise.

A handful of islands is nothing
compared to the conquest of a continent.

Who knows what we may
find in those unknown places.

It might be unimaginable.

You're right about that.

Castile has a huge
opportunity in its hands.

Please let me insist.

With an enterprise of such dimension

how profitable would be for our crown
that other sailors explored those lands?

Did you know that people have complained
about the admiral?

And the queen secured his privileges.

But the royal certificate that was signed
by the queen three years ago

has not been revoked.

Monsignor, as beneficial as it would be
to open the route to other sailors

it shall remain tightly shut.

- Your Majesty, I could...
- We have a great deal of trouble now.

Don't insist on something
that is unsolvable.

I must see the kings at once.

- Is something wrong?
- I've brought a message from Philip.

I'm afraid it will give
rise to a bitter dispute.

That crook! That marriage
was such a bad idea.

How dare he demand the title of
prince of Asturias for himself?

Your Majesty, wouldn't
it be wise to find out

if Emperor Maximilian supports him in this?

He's right. This couldn't have
been planned only by him.

Get ready to leave.

You will warn the archduke that
we won't acquiesce on this.

Chacon, we will be writing a letter.

We shall ask the emperor about
the archduke's reasons.

Do you bring a letter from my daughter?

No, Your Majesty. The archduchess,
due to her state, is getting rest.

I hope God is guarding her and my grandson.

How is she?
Is she happy with Philip?

She is, my lady.

Your letter did not reach our court.

Then it is evident that your
letters as well as your daughter's

are being intercepted before
they reach their recipients.

Don't mention anything about
this to the queen. She's unwell.

I did not plan to, Your Majesty.
That is why I told you.

I'm afraid that Philip is trying
to turn Juana against us

and denying him this princedom
would support his position.

Go back to Flanders after you
speak to Emperor Maximilian.

Make sure that Juana is not alone

and don't allow Philip to isolate her.

I won't, my lord.

Welcome, Your Eminence.

Though I must tell you that
our visit is unexpected.

My lord, the archduke

sends me here with his best wishes
to you and your kingdom.

You've crossed the wasteland
between us just to do this?

To be honest, I've brought a request
from the archduke that may interest you.

Let's hear it then.

You must understand that the archduke
wants to demand his titles in Castile.

If that is so,
you are in the wrong place.

Queen Isabel and King Ferdinand are
the ones who should be listening to you.

No, Your Excellence.

I know which door to knock on.

And I know the answer
that awaits me in Castile.

So you ask for the support of France

for the claims of your lord.

What would King Louis, my lord,
gain from this

apart from renewing the enmity
with Isabel and Ferdinand?

An oath from the Archduke Philip

to become your vassal, Your Majesty.

Are you comfortable, my lady?

Yes. Catalina.

You are very pale.

Did you get some sleep last night?

Just a couple of hours.

If rest is not enough,
we will have to look for other remedies.

There is no remedy
for the pain in my heart.

Margarita

you are like a daughter to me

and I share your pain.

But your son must be the
most important thing to you.

As it is for us.

I wish I could banish the
pain from my heart, my lady.

But I can't.

Let us pray together, my child.

Let us seek comfort in God.

What is it?

What is it, Margarita?

Go fetch the midwife.

Easy. Easy.

I pray to thee, thy merciful
kindness be with us.

I will not forget my promises

nor will I modify the words
that have left my lips before.

I pray to thee,
Most Holy Virgin Mary

to let no other tragedy befall us.

I was born a sinner.

My mother conceived me so.

But if I have offended you

deliver my loved ones from evil

and let your punishment fall upon me.

- Your Majesty, the archduchess...
- Is she alive?

Yes.

But her pregnancy..

Ojeda. I knew about your return,
but I didn't expect you.

I bring news about
your father, the admiral.

What happened to you?

This letter must be sent at once.

The kings of Portugal, my
daughter and her husband.

Is this about the succession, Your Majesty?

That's right.

They must be appointed
our successors without delay.

You look exhausted, my lady.

Make haste. Chacon.

Castile and Aragon must let Philip
know how wrong his claims are.

Don't worry. He will know.

Your Majesties, before I take my leave

I would like to express

how painful your loss is to me.

You are always at my side.

In happiness and in tragedy.

Let us pray to God that we don't go
through any more misfortunes

and that we may leave this mourning behind.

Apparently, the admiral's son
wanted to sell a valuable item

but they did not reach an agreement.

That is what Diego Colombas told you?

But a few days later, some masked men
broke into his house and stole from him.

And young Diego thinks that the robbers
were sent by the intended buyer?

- That's right.
- What was the valuable item?

I couldn't get that out of him.

Why do you think that should interest us?

Because I barely managed
for him to be honest with me.

It was as if this were
a huge secret for him.

He didn't even accept my
help to recover the goods.

I see.

Any secret kept by a
Colombus should interest us.

- Can you find out more about this?
- You can be sure. Monsignor.

You will be the first to
know about my findings.

My officers have counted 2,000 Muslims
at the conversion sites this morning.

You must agree that this rate is huge.

Nobody can deny that.
You know what they call you in Granada?

No.

The 'faqir of the bells'

due to all the mosques you
are turning into churches.

However, such a high number of baptisms
may not be equal to conversions.

Remember what happened
with the Jews before.

Those who did not mean to convert

persisted in their beliefs and in heresy.

That will not happen in Granada.

I will end the recalcitrance.
You will see.

By force

- nothing good may come.
- Trust me.

I know what must be done.

My lord

the king of Naples is reclaiming the
territories he gave us for our help.

- Damn Fadrique.
- Why now?

I don't know.

Because King Louis must
be backing him on this.

Otherwise, Fadrique wouldn't dare.

That's not a ridiculous assumption.

There is something we can do
before resorting to arms.

King Louis needs the annulment
of his marriage to keep Brittany.

- He's asked the pope already.
- So he's pointing us to his weakness.

Write to the pope about how offended we are

by the annulment of Louis' marriage.

I'll send the letter at once.

As for Naples

write to Fernandez de Cordoba

that he must negotiate with
them without giving an inch.

- The tables are turning on us, my lord.
- Apparently.

But we will not be
defeated without a fight.

Seven years ago, Louis
married his cousin Joan

and now he claims that she is deformed
in order to annul his marriage?

That's what he told me.

Apparently, King Louis hasn't found
a stronger argument.

But according to her, that didn't
stop him from visiting her bed.

'Louis has even bragged about riding
me three times in one night.'

It seems that lust was more
powerful than the apprehension.

Regardless of the consummation

you must rule this according
to our interests.

Joan is not the only one who
wishes to preserve this marriage.

I just received this letter
from the Catholic Kings.

In their opinion, the annulment would
work against the rules of the church.

They mean to give us theology lessons,
regardless of their Catholic position?

The thing is that backing one of them
would mean going against the other.

What do Isabel and
Fernando offer in exchange?

To pray for you?

I bring a steady offer from the French.

The duchy of Valentinois and
Saint Michael's Order for me, your son.

Will you take such honors away from me?

Your Eminence, you will be glad to know

that my lord, King Louis, is agreeable
to the archduke's aspirations.

So France is backing me on this?

You may say so to His Highness.

The wait was worthwhile, then.

And his decision was made by the
Castilians trying to stop his annulment?

I would not be discreet
if I responded to that.

However, I must clarify that
it is the wish of my lord

to enter this agreement with a treaty.

I understand. So the negotiation
shall be longer than I intended.

So you must advise the young,
ambitious Philip to be patient.

He must understand that the king
has many issues to tend to

in the first days of his reign.

My lord, King Louis has
decided to support you.

He is willing to accept you as his vassal.

- Thank you, Monsignor.
- I hope to God this is a good thing.

With the support of the French,
Isabel and Ferdinand will have to give in.

They are in no good
spirits to resume battle.

My lady, how are you?

Rumors are coming to Portugal
about you being ill.

The death of your brother was a dagger

that pierced my heart.

Mom, we all know how
unmerciful God's will may seem.

We must abide by it.

Margarita.

You are Margarita.

- Father.
- Your Highness.

Castile welcomes its future queen.

Ladies and gentlemen, it is God's will
that we are changing our fortunes.

Before him and our kingdoms

we shall fulfill His designs
with faith and honor.

We appreciate that, Your Highness.

The path might be tough,
but there may be some days of glory ahead.

When must we attend the court, Father?

Soon. We have issued the summon.

Mother, I want to pray for
my brother's soul before his grave.

And also for the soul of your son.

We will pray together.

What is it?

The pope decided to give
the annulment to the French.

Magnificent.

Please give our thanks to the Holy Father,
for me and for the queen.

Upon my word, this was
no easy task to solve.

No doubt, the duchy of Valentinois
had more weight than Joan's claims.

Then we shall honor the
terms set by King Charles

but tell me your reason
for insisting on marrying me.

I could not give him a son.

You are an educated woman

intelligent

and very beautiful.

Any other king would love to
have you by his side.

So is Joan.

But I doubt her dowry comes
even close to Brittany.

Now that you mention it

I have a wedding present for you.

When we are husband and wife

you shall be duchess of Brittany again.

If you have no objection.

I thank you, Your Majesty.

But there are further matters
I would like to speak about.

Pearls?

This is what Diego Colombus wanted to sell.

He was right.
They were stolen by the intended buyer.

- He confessed?
- I was more persuasive with him.

He gave me more details
about their origin than Diego did.

You think Colombus brought them?
He didn't mention them in the inventory.

Who else?
There were rumors among the crew.

What kind of rumors?

They said that the admiral
found a great treasure

on one of his expeditions into the inland.

Pearl smuggling.

The queen will not like this matter at all,
I assure you.

For the moment, it is just
a handful of pearls.

The origin of which must be
explained by Diego Colombus.

Go to Aragon. There are wills we need
to subdue before summoning the court.

You fear they won't take the oath
to your daughter as princess of Gerona?

I fear that in those lands, tradition
and interests rule over common sense.

I give you the powers to persuade
and negotiate as necessary.

I will write them for you.

Why did you have me locked up?

You are a bad example to your people.

Will I be a good example from prison,
or do you have other plans for me?

You are intelligent, no doubt.

Your kings promised to honor
our religion and our customs.

However, I have their blessing

to fulfill the mission they
have entrusted to me.

And you won't stop me from doing it.

- Convert.
- Do not insist.

I'm not convinced by your faith,
or by your arguments.

So I will pray for Him to enlighten you.

And your guard shall show me the way?

Leon shall be with you
in your considerations.

The conversions he has
managed are but a handful.

Please persist.
He'll give in eventually.

Any news from Fuensalida?

- I haven't heard of his return.
- No, my lady.

The same silence as when he departed

shall come with his return. If he returns.

He wished to stay by my side.
I don't see how...

Calm yourself.

Soon, he will return with word
from your parents against me.

- How dare you say that?
- There are rumors in Flanders that they

are responsible for my sister
Margarita's terrible loss.

Why are you listening
to such a malicious story?

They won't even reply to your letters,
and you still trust them?

You are so naive, Juana.

They want to take you away from me.

But why would they?

Don't you see?

After Prince Juan's death,
after their son's death

the path is clear to unite Castile,
Aragon and Portugal into one kingdom.

You and I are mere obstacles for them.

Especially if we remain
together and in love.

I swear to you, not even the most
powerful king would take me from you.

I love you.

You love me vehemently.

The doctors are worried about your health.

They recommend that you spend
a few days in the country.

Do they have a better remedy

than your kiss and caress?

Please obey. A few days in
the country are good for you.

- I don't want to be away from you.
- Nor do I from you, my love.

But we must keep our child in mind.

You shall not use the
title prince of Asturias.

Their Catholic Majesties want you
to be clear on this matter.

How will they stop me from doing it?

Only the heir to Castile's throne
may have that title.

And you're not it.

Don't they know that I have
the support of the king of France?

Emperor Maximilian, your father,
told me about that.

You asked him about this?

My kings told me to verify whether
he backed these claims of yours.

You should know, they don't like
your friendship with the king of France.

Are they the ones to decide
whom our friends must be?

Our peace with France
has not been signed yet

and your marriage to Juana binds you
against betraying her family.

I will decide what my marriage binds me to.

Say that to Your Majesties.

I wish to see Princess Juana.

That won't be possible.

Sir, you cannot stop
me all the time from...

Princess Juana sends her apologies
for not being able to receive you, sir.

Is she all right?

The doctors have advised a more
tranquil life due to her pregnancy.

The princess is in the
country at the moment.

"And so, in witness of the obedience,
reverence and loyalty we give

under the laws and jurisdiction
of this kingdom

to Our Highness Dona
Isabel of Castile and Aragon

as princess heiress of Castile

and her husband, Don
Manuel king of Portugal

as her consort."

We take this oath. Amen.

Your Highness, Doha Isabel,
do you swear to abide to and fulfill

all that is contained in the document
of the oath that was just read to you?

Yes, I swear to it.

So help thee God and the holy gospel.

Now we only wait for Aragon.

- Who comes with you?
- Juan Manuel de Villena, of Belmonte.

He shall remain in Flanders at
your disposal during my absence.

You can trust him.

I find what you told me
hard to believe, Fuensalida.

My husband negotiating with the French?

Lady, I wouldn't tell
you a malicious story.

It was your father-in-law,
the emperor, who told us about this.

Philip is a gentleman. Temperamental at
times, but he'd never betray my parents.

Your Highness, the archduke
has been going through your letters.

The letters from Castile,
with their official seal

have only arrived to their recipient

if they don't interfere
with their interests.

If you still have the
loyalty of your husband

there is only one way
for you to disperse all doubts.

Peace agreements are always a blessing.

I hope this works to improve
our relations with Emperor Maximilian.

I hope so, too.

But my father does not support
my decisions very often.

Do not stop trying, my lord.

Vassals like you are the ones
who make France more and more powerful.

So it is true.

You made an alliance with the French?

You are plotting against
Castile and Aragon.

Against my parents! How dare you?

How dare you come to the
court without my permission?

Is this why you wanted me in the country?

To stab my family in the
back with no witnesses?

I demand that you break
this alliance with France!

I am your wife, and
you owe me your loyalty.

I told you before and I tell you now

in Flanders I rule over you.

Release her at once, sir!

Stop.

I will solve this issue with my husband.

Spaniards have a strange
way of arguing your points.

Let go of me, you miserable traitor!

Listen to me!

The interests of your parents
don't always align with mine.

You are my wife.

Like it or not, you will be by my side.

You expect me to back you?
To betray my parents?

I'd rather take my eyes out
than agree to such indignity.

You do as I say, or
you will lose me forever.

If you interfere again

I'll send you back to Castile
without a second thought.

On your own!

Think it over.

I see that you are better.
I'm glad.

Thank you.

You wanted to see me, Monsignor?

Come with me.
Let's speak away from prying ears.

- Your Majesty.
- Calm yourself, Diego.

I called the queen.

I think this is yours.

- Those pearls aren't mine.
- There are witnesses who don't agree.

- I'm telling you, they're not mine.
- Diego.

I am your queen.

You mustn't lie to me.

Please forgive me.

Please forgive me, Your Majesty.

My father... had to do as he said.

Tell us what you know.

When he returned from his second trip

my father spoke to me about a hidden bay
that was full of those pearls.

He entrusted me with that bag.

Shortly after that, he told me to sell it.

That is enough. We know the rest.

Leave us.

Tell the king about this.

You've finally seen reason?

The prophet Mohammed has come to me
in dreams, Your Eminence.

- That's why I asked to see you.
- I beg of you

do not waste our time, sir.

There's still work to be done in Granada.

I want to convert to your faith.

My decision is sincere.

I have selected a Christian name.

And what will your name be, if I may know?

Gonzalo Fernandez de Cordoba.

Brave soldier and a better Christian.

Magnificent.

Your baptism shall be public.

I cannot think of a better way to
encourage the others to follow you.

Your Most Reverend Eminence

if you want to multiply
the number of converts

leave that to your guard Leon.

No one has ever done so
much justice to his name.

We have reviewed all the inventories

and there is no entry for the pearls.

His privileges are not enough for him.

Such greed.

May God forgive him, because my kingdom
has only sorrow in store for him.

- Maybe we should wait for his arrival.
- Colombus betrayed our trust.

We've had too much patience with him,
but that is over.

Let the pearls adorn the end
of the admiral's privileges.

Fetch the certificates.

I imagine you are anxious to go back
and recount what happened here.

- There's no doubt that I will, sir.
- I hope so.

Our alliance with France is a done deal.

I thank you for letting
the kings know of this.

You just called me to brag
about your vassalage?

No. I have a couple of requirements
for your kings. Go on, Busleyden.

We want Margarita to return to Flanders.
There's no use in her staying there now.

And?

The archduke requires that
the kings give him a title of succession

in the case the queen of Portugal
fails to have a son.

Is your wife aware of this requirement?

Don't worry about it.
I am in charge of her.

So are we.

Don Juan of Belmonte shall remain
in Flanders at Dona Juana's service.

If you have no objection.

How dare they refuse to acknowledge
my daughter as our successor.

The Aragonese court has always refused
to accept female successors.

It would be more convenient to conquer
Aragon and bend their will by force.

This is not a time for war,
my lady, but for politics.

The Aragonese court
is unwilling to negotiate?

Apparently, Your Majesty.

This is the offer you will take to Aragon

Isabel will relinquish her princedom.

We will honor that tradition.

Only if they guarantee that

her firstborn son shall
be the heir to the crown.

If they refuse?

Let them know that we will not allow
them to break our plans.

We are willing to negotiate. They must
not force us to impose our will on them.

Pray that Manuel is able to
impregnate our daughter soon.

Aragon is at risk.

You're telling me that Philip initiated

the alliance with the
French for this title?

- That's right, Your Majesty.
- Did you see Juana?

- How is she?
- She's pregnant.

In the country, away
from the affairs of the court

because of her pregnancy.

Why has she not replied to our letters?

The princess asked just
the same thing, Your Majesty.

I imagine that Philip wants to
prevent her contact with her family

from damaging his plots.

And why his haste for Margarita's return?

He didn't say.

But I'm afraid he wants
to betroth her to Arthur of England

to stop his wedding with Princess Catalina.

My God.

We sent Juana to the lion's den.

Your Majesties, the emperor himself
tried to warn you about Philip.

You should not trust a man
who is capable of betraying his own father.

Those were his words.

Flanders is on the side of our worst enemy.

In Italy, we have few allies.

England might join Philip's side.

The Holy League barely
has one man standing.

At least we have Portugal's loyalty.

We don't even have Aragon's future secured.

They're trying to isolate Castile.

And they are succeeding.

There is only one exit.

To negotiate with France.

You should be glad, Talavera.

Since the public baptism of Zegri,
the conversions have multiplied.

Conversion without catechesis

only brings false Christians.

Maybe. But I assure you that
two generations from now they will be true.

Your Most Reverend Eminence

don't you see that this goes
beyond an evangelization campaign?

Our kings want us

to stop the Muslims of Granada
from supporting an attack by the Turkish.

Or the Barbary pirates.

- Is that possible?
- Maybe.

As long as Granada is of a Moor majority.

As you see, my mission here
is very far from over.

The Aragonese shall not have
what they want. God won't let them.

Tell me.

Are you happy with your husband?

- In the bed, too?
- Mother!

Forgive me.
It's just that you haven't conceived yet.

You have?

Why didn't you tell me?

To respect your mourning.

Does your father know?

Thank you, God!

Pray for a son, Busleyd.

- Pray.
- All of Flanders is praying, my lord.

It's a girl.

Your wife is all right, sir.

Dear Mother and Father

I'm afraid that my husband is not
the man that we expected.

But what can a woman do when her loved one

is the same dagger
that pierces her entrails?

I love my husband with the same fury
that I feel for the prince

and both of them are the same.

Is that even possible?

Please know

that this daughter of yours
is always carrying you in her heart.

Juana, princess of Castile and Aragon.

You were right.

Conversions are no good at all

if we don't strip them of
the source of their cult.

I beg you, my lord.

Those books are very valuable.
What will you do with them?

I've ordered them to
set aside the medicine books

for my university in Alcala.

As for the rest..

You are turning centuries
of knowledge into ashes.

So much savagery.

May God forgive you.

He will.

I'm but His instrument to do his will.

There's been so much bloodshed in Italy.

We won't oppose Fadrique.
He's all right in that position.

I assure you, my king would be more
than willing to sign lasting peace with you

but we learned that you
would get a certain gain from this.

- Apart from the peace?
- You are right.

Your vassal from Burgundy

my son-in-law, has more ambition
than troops and guts.

I want this agreement
to be a lesson in humility.

What would France get from this?

Lasting peace and an
alliance in time of war.

There won't be any more bloodshed in Italy.

- You have my word.
- Why are you so sure about that?

Because we will divide Naples between us.

Damn him!

Calm yourself, sir. I beg you.

I was humiliated, Busleyden.
Don't you see?

They reached an agreement
just to humiliate me.

The agreement is for peace in Naples,
not against your alliance with France.

They signed it behind my back.
They want me to see my insignificance.

And that bitch from Portugal is pregnant.
Damn her!

Juana should've had a son.

That Castilian whore is
not even good for that.

I underestimated Ferdinand.

He's more lethal than a
thousand poisonous snakes.

I swear I will finish him.

Go away? Why?

Where to?

I'm going hunting.

- I will be gone for a week.
- Don't lie.

Don't lie to me!

I am going hunting. This time.

Don't leave me! I beg you!

I will always be at
your side, in everything.

I will go against my
parents if you ask me to.

But don't leave me.

Let go of me, Juana.

Is it because I had a girl? Forgive me.
Forgive me. My lord.

I beg you, forgive me!

- Let go, you Castilian bitch!
- Get me pregnant again.

Get me pregnant now.
I swear I will have a boy this time.

I will always pray for it.

I swear.

I swear. I swear.

The kings are worried about
what is going on in the city.

They are right.
Granada is about to explode.

If my daughter Isabel has a son,
he shall be raised in this kingdom.

- Prepared.
- In the name of the Father

and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

You will never have a
domain to offer to King Louis.

Vou doubt my loyalty?

She's under that much
control by her husband?

Poor Juana.
What have we done to her?

You won't have any more
complaints from my wife.

And I hope that the court
won't have complaints, either.

The duchy of Milan shall be French.

Unsatisfied by the dukedom, the pope
wants the hand of a woman to offer her.

He's right.

There are enemies of my people
and of my faith.

You abandoned your
duty and the princess too.

What does she do in her chambers?

Open, in the name of the queen.

You come with us!

This is my place.
I won't go anywhere else.

I won't put the heir at risk

to consolidate your throne.

Am as sovereign as you are.

Portugal is not lesser than Castile.

My lord.

There is something you should know.

You will return to Castile.
Say goodbye to your daughter

because you won't see
either of us, ever again.
