MONK:
Your true purpose beckons you.

But you hesitate.

-Why?
-Because I'm weak.

-Why are you weak?
-Because I'm impure.

-How do you purge yourself?
-Through prayer.

MONK:
Kneel.

-(panting)
-Pray that your heart

will be cleansed of all doubt.

Your mind made certain
of your mission.

For these

are the moments
around which history pivots.

Sanctify me in your holy name.

(muffled grunting)

Purify me in your holy fire.

Strengthen me

Good.

FAE PROSTITUTE:
Help! Someone help!

-Quickly.
-Oh... Oh, my God.

DOMBEY:
What the fuck?

She was on about that bloke
as was took away last night.

And you, what? You helped her
tie the fucking noose?

I didn't think
she'd do anything like this.

DOMBEY:
Eh?

Well, this is a right cock-up.

-CONSTABLE: That it is, sir...
-Oh, sh...

-(Dombey shouting)
-(people cheering, shouting)

Go on, Vig!

-Get her! Get her!
-Let me go!

Come on.

Philo!

-(prisoners shouting)
-(grunts)

(grunts, coughing)

Philo is fucking dead, you twat.

What are you waiting for?

I want to look you in the eyes.

What do you think
you're gonna see?

A darkness.

An emptiness.

Some sign of your true nature.

My true nature? I've got very
good at hiding my true nature

thanks to you, you fuck.

No sign of remorse whatsoever.

Remorse?

For what?

Don't you dare.

You tore her apart.

Gutted her like a fish!

Your own mother!

You think I killed
Aisling Quarelle?

Say her name again.

Go on.

I dare you. Say it.

She didn't deserve
to die like that.

In such a terrible way.

No.

She didn't.

Put the gun down.

Beg.

Beg me for your life.

Go on.

The way she begged you
for hers. Beg!

It wasn't me she was begging.
Put the gun down.

-Oh, fuck this.
-(gun clicks)

(gun clicking)

(groaning)

-Piece of ancient shit...
-I wouldn't do that.

(exhales)

I didn't kill my mother.

I didn't even know who she was.

The first time I saw her,

she was lying in a pool
of her own blood, murdered.

By you, I thought, till now.

She left me at a foundling home.

I grew up with nothing
but questions.

And I'm never gonna be able
to ask them of her now, am I?

But I can ask you.

Me?

You, Father.

ABSALOM:
I was a college student

when I first saw her at some
late night salon on the Row.

Her performance made
an impression on me,

and I was just drunk enough
to say so.

Much to the amusement
of some elites

who had been flirting with her.

Here was some farm boy
from the Hinterlands

fawning over
the queen of the Row.

But she didn't permit me
the embarrassment.

She sent them away.

She was something
of a pastoral girl herself,

homesick for the mountains
of Anoun.

When winter came,
I brought her here.

To my family's summer house.

They were the strangest and most
uncomplicated days of my life.

I thought they'd never end.

(laughter)

ABSALOM:
But then my father
discovered our secret.

So it wasn't you
she was afraid of.

-It was him.
-ABSALOM: My father wasn't

a conventionally powerful man,

but he was brutal,
with brutal friends.

(sighs)

He threatened to kill her
unless I called it off.

That was the last time
you saw her?

She asked to see me
one more time.

I... never showed up.

Just left her there in the club
where we first met.

I never knew what it was
she needed to tell me,

until now.

It's clear to me
it was about you.

I was a coward.

My father was right.

I never would've gotten where I
am had I stayed with her, but...

something inside me
died that day.

I wouldn't be surprised
if you despise me.

I want to hate you,

but it's a familiar story.

Too familiar, maybe.

Mine starts in Tirnanoc.

I trust your guest found
her way home this morning, sir?

She did.

And do you imagine
you'll be seeing her again?

I fail to see
what concern it is of yours.

Quiet right, sir.

No, no. Tell me, Fergus.

I beg your pardon, sir?

Do you disapprove
of my behavior?

Does the thought of it
repulse you?

You answer me, Fergus!

What concern is that of yours?

Sir, surely you know
if anyone were to find out...

And how exactly
would they find out, Fergus?

Are you saying I can no longer
rely on your discretion?

I'm only saying this affair

is not as well-hidden
as you imagine.

-People are already talking.
-Talking.

-That's all they do, isn't it?
-It's not all they can do, sir.

It's dangerous,
what you're doing.

I'm well-acquainted
with danger, Fergus.

Is she?

-EZRA: Good morning, dear.
-Good morning.

-Are you going somewhere?
-Something's come up.

I-I tried
to tell you last night.

-I knocked on your door
at half past seven.
-Oh.

I must've fallen asleep.

Are you coming down
with something, dear?

It must've been the book
I was reading. Uh...

Where are you going?

The Swan is ready.

-Swan?
-Where's my tobacco?

This new ship of yours?

We take its maiden voyage today.

We'll head up the coast
to Port Hoy

and then come directly back.

Is Mr. Agreus to accompany you?

(Ezra laughs)

Wouldn't that be a lark, dear?

We should invite him to dinner
when you come back.

Hmm? Another scheme?

No. To celebrate, as friends.

Friends?

Well, business partners,
at least.

Come now, Imogen.

-What?
-Parties,

private dinners, auctions?

I'm quite sure I don't know
what you're insinuating.

It's just that people
would start

to make unflattering assumptions
if you continue on this course.

Who gives a damn
what people think?

Imogen!

It's just exhausting,

constantly worrying about
what people might think.

It's no way to live, Ezra.

You speak as though
this, uh, creature

has truly become
a friend to you?

-No, of course not.
-So?

Well, what is he, then?

A neighbor.

-Yes?
-An acquaintance.

A Puck.

I'll see that
she's released, but...

you can't return to the city.
You understand that?

The killer's still out there.

Which you are in no position
to investigate.

From what you've told me,
you're the next target.

I can't just stand by.

As far as anyone knows,
you were taken to be executed.

Stay dead.

You'll live longer.

I'll see this ugliness settled.

Turn your eye to the chances
you have left

with that girl of yours.

Before it's too late.

Trust me on this.

Vignette...?

-Stonemoss.
-Vignette Stonemoss.

I'll take care of it.

I wish I knew you better.

Godspeed, my boy.

(knocks on carriage)

(indistinct chatter)

PIETY:
Was it that Longerbane girl?

Did you really think your driver
would keep that secret?

Fine. Yes.

I was with Sophie.

Sophie Longerbane.

Well, I'd advise you
to stay away from her.

I would think you'd be relieved
I wasn't on the Row.

That girl...

is twice as dangerous
as anything on the Row.

(scoffs)

You don't know
that family like I do.

I knew her father
before you were even born.

And he was a snake.

-He's never wronged me.
-How can you

even say that
after he kidnapped you?

Do you take me
for a fucking fool?

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry!
It was for your own good.

-It's always been
for your own good.
-As if you have

-any idea what my own good was.
-You don't see the big picture

-from where you're standing.
-Then show it to me.

Jonah, y-you have to trust me.

No, if you have some reason
for me to reconsider my choices,

you can explain it
to me like an adult.

She's leader of the opposition.

-I'll see whom I please.
-No, not her.

Why the fuck not?

-Because...
-Oh, because, because what?

-Because she's smarter
than you? Hmm?
-No, not her.

-Because she's more beautiful?
-Because-- Not her, not her...

Because she's younger than you?

Because she's your sister.

TOURMALINE:
Fight the false
imprisonment of fae.

Thank you very much.
Help out Vignette.

Come on, ladies.

-Moira?
-Take it.

Thank you.

I'll-I'll pay you back.

Don't worry about it.

We look after our own, eh?

TOURMALINE:
Hello, Patrick.

Thank you, you're a gentleman.

What do you want, Philo?

I'm just here for Vignette.

Well, as far as I'm aware,

her current address
is a holding cell

under constabulary number six.
At least until this fucking

-bribe is paid.
-You don't have to worry

about that.
She's being released.

What d'you mean,
she's being released?

I wish to see the Magister
of Police at once.

What may I say of the reason?

You may say it is urgent.

Pour me a cup of tea, will you?

Um... (panting)

Krik.

A new world is upon us, Krik.
Change is coming

-to this city.
-(drawer slams)

Ah. It starts now,

with the one thing
my father could not give me.

(exhales) Freedom.

Vignette...

Stonemoss.

(blows)

QUILL:
Your tea.

-You're not Krik.
-(grunting)

(screaming)

QUILL:
Death to the tyrant!

-The Hidden One is revealed.
-(screams)

-Death to the tyrant!
-Oi!

He has revealed!

Death to the tyrant!
He has revealed!

-(officers shouting)
-(Quill gasping)

(shouting in distance)

(coughing)

He's-he's still breathing.
He's alive.

You're growing rather bold,

showing up at my house like
this, in broad daylight no less.

I won't be long.

Come now, don't be
so pessimistic.

We can't, Sophie.

We can't what?

We can't keep doing this.

Ah.

I see what this is.

Your mother told you, did she?

Told me what?

About her affair with my father.

-You knew?
-Calm down, Jonah.

-You knew we were...
-I knew it was a possibility.

What, and-and the possibility
alone didn't...

Didn't what?

Oh, I don't know,
give you some pause?

Why should it?

I grew up alone,
locked up in this place.

No friends, no siblings,
no family,

apart from a distant,

bitter father.

And then a stranger
comes into my life,

with whom I feel some shred
of a connection.

Why should that give me
any pause at all?

Because the world out there
has boundaries.

Well, since when
have you ever cared

about that world's boundaries?

We don't belong to that world.

It belongs to us.

We are descended from emperors

and pharaohs.

You really think
this is the first time

this has happened
in our family tree?

This is how power was born.

You could be a force
to be reckoned with.

-What's this?
-An offer.

Something to consider.

-(knocking on door)
-Come in.

What is it, Jenila?

A messenger from Balefire.

Master Jonah
is to return at once.

Where is that Critch traitor?

He's being interrogated
at the Keep.

We're questioning
all the Critch servants,

and we'll be replacing them,
of course.

How is he?

-He's stable for now.
-I need to see him.

No. He's-he's weak.
He needs to rest.

Jonah, don't...

Don't upset him.

(weakly):
Jonah.

(door opens, closes)

They say I'm likely to survive.

That was a close call.

Indeed.

Tell me...
did it cross your mind

how ill-equipped I was to assume
your responsibilities

if you hadn't.

Hadn't what?

Survived.

But I'm likely to.
They-they say that I'm likely...

I keep thinking how...

odd it is that you
never remedied that,

with so much at stake.

That you'd always let me
get away with anything.

If I was too soft, it's because
I have such love for you.

But no ambitions, no plans.

It's as if you never saw me
as a true successor.

That's preposterous.
You carry my very name.

Your name and little else.

Where is this coming from?

Mother told me the truth.

(straining):
Jonah.

I don't know
what you're talking about.

You expect me to believe that?

As much as you...
hated Ritter Longerbane?

You knew something.
You've at least suspected.

-Suspected?
-Really?

In-in-in quiet moments,
in the dead of night,

you never scrutinized

my sleeping face and wondered...

Wondered if you were
really my son.

There it is.

There it is.

Early on.

Longerbane was a rival
for her affections, after all.

But, Jonah,

you are my boy.

My boy.

And I'm proud
that you have my name.

Couldn't give a fuck
about your name...

or her ridiculous
prophecy, frankly.

Jonah, where are you going?

Jonah, come back.

-Jonah.
-Goodbye, Chancellor.

Jonah!

Why?

(watch ticking)

TOURMALINE:
So...

you're Breakspear's

bastard son?

So it would seem.

And Vini knew your secret,

that you were a-a half-blood

all this time?

Since Tirnanoc.

That explains so much.

Just, um...

just take care of her.

Please.

I will.

Not that she needs me
the way I need her.

Oh, she does.

Open that drawer.

Go on.

She brought it
all the way from Anoun.

It was all she brought.

I told her to burn it
and have done with you,

but she wouldn't.

-Should've known then, really.
-Known what?

That she still loved you,
you idiot. (laughs)

(thunder rumbling)

(knocking on door)

Oh, hello.

This is the servants' entrance,
Miss Imogen.

Yes, I'm aware of the irony.
Very amusing.

Well, aren't you going
to invite me in?

(door shuts)

What are you doing here?

I thought we might...

You thought we might... what?

Well... you know.

I'm sure I don't.

You're being very difficult.

Well, you came to my house.
I'm merely asking why.

Don't you think we have some...

matters to discuss?

It's early.

Won't your brother be wondering
where you are?

He's left town for the night.

What?

You shouldn't be here.

You can't just expect me
to pretend it never happened.

That's exactly what I expect.

And you?
Can you forget so easily?

Don't flatter yourself.

I beg your pardon.

It would be improper for me
to say more.

Well, don't hold back
on my account.

We're both adults.

Very well. You want the truth?

I think I deserve it.

The truth, Miss Imogen,

is that you are a callow

and graceless lover,

and yesterday was
utterly forgettable.

You're lying.

What do you know?

I know enough.

I know there are things
a man can't fake.

What do you want me to say?

That it obsesses me?

The smell of your hair, the feel
of your skin against mine.

That I haven't stopped thinking
about it all day?

But you wish to, is that it?

There are some pursuits
even I can't afford.

Then why even bother with this
whole ridiculous charade?

Charade?

The house. The clothes. The art.

What is the point in
pretending to be one of us

if there is any part of this
life you cannot have?

Oh, yes, that's it, isn't it?

That's how your kind goes
through life, isn't it?

Perfectly entitled.

Thinking everyone wants
to be you,

and the whole bloody world
belongs to you.

Well, if you mean we don't
apologize for our ambitions,

then you're right.

When we want something,
we take it.

(grunts)

(panting)

And what is it that you want?

You know good and well
what I want.

I can see it all so clearly now.

Every thread.

Every intersection.

What if my dear wife

always harbored
some private reason

to doubt that her boy
was my son?

You're delirious.

But it was my son who was
augured for greatness.

And I had no other.

Until, by some means
known only to her,

she discovered a secret.

I'm getting the doctor.

A secret that
even I didn't know.

There was,
somewhere in the world,

another son.

Who did this?

Should have seen it sooner.

It was right in front of me
all along.

The interest she took
in my work.

BREAKSPEAR:
Now she had a problem.

She had no way of knowing

It's not her style.

-Are you quite sure?
-Yes.

She was my dear friend.

That's not her voice.
That's not her way.

No, I am certain. Aisling would
never write such a letter.

I was afraid you'd say that.

I've decided that I'm no longer

in need of
an arts and letters tutor.

I understand, sir.

But I am in need
of an honest man.

Sir?

Special advisor
to the chancellor.

Thank you.

You are a steadying influence,
Mr. Millworthy.

I will need that. (sniffs)

In the hard days to come.

Sorry.
What hard days to come?

It turns out that this
Puck assassin was a member

of a larger radical
organization.

What? What do you mean?

And what does that mean
for the city and the Row

and all the innocent fae?

It means that things
are going to get worse

before they get better.

TOURMALINE:
Where is it you're going?

Port Hoy.
Then to New Freehold.

Somewhere a pair like us
won't raise eyebrows.

Well, I wish you luck.

You're not cross with me,
are you?

Why would I be cross with you?

I don't know.

Oh.

Look, Vini... um...

I'm your friend above all.

Always your friend.
I-I just want you to be happy.

That's all I want. (chuckles)

So go on. Be happy.

You, too.

I love you.

(chuckling):
Oh, I love you, too.

Oh, piss off. Go on.

-(whistle blows)
-(indistinct chatter)

Come here, you dirty Critch.

Those are the orders.
Back to the Row.

Okay, move along, thank you.

Pardon me.

Thank you.

Uh, you can't be here.
You have to go back to the Row.

Back to the Row? Why?

You don't understand.
We're just trying to leave.

No Critch are getting in
or out of the city

-until further notice.
-Why? What's going on?

The chancellor's been
assassinated by Puck cultists.

All Critch are to be sequestered
to the Row.

No exceptions.

We're being signaled
back into port, sir.

All vessels are to return.

Ignore them.

Let them chase us
if they'd like.

What course shall we set?

The captain would like to know
where to take us.

Somewhere new.

Somewhere far away.

Surprise us.

Ma'am. Sir.

JONAH:
"I'm sure the papers would pay
very good money

"to hear the story
of the half-blood son

I bore by the chancellor."

Colors suit you.

Looking over your speech?

Actually I was just considering
your offer.

Of marriage.

Marriage? You make it sound
so small and ordinary.

-And what were you thinking?
-A dynasty.

What were you thinking?

I was thinking it looks rather
like this blackmail note

that was sent to my mother.

Aren't you the clever one?

It's true.

You're responsible
for everything.

I confess I wasn't expecting you
to work that out so soon.

Still, it's exciting to know
I can still be surprised.

How did you know...?

The secret was so... buried.

Nothing is ever truly buried
from those who look.

My father had been collecting
dirt on the chancellor

for quite some time.

He was bound to chance
upon the rumors.

Devastating if true.

But he refused
to make use of them

beyond the occasional jab
or insinuation

on the floor of Parliament.

Some residual feelings
for your mother, I expect.

I, of course,
had no such compunction.

No such compunction?
My father's

fucking dead because
of this letter!

And yet your eyes
are perfectly clear.

Why is that?
Tell me, have you wept at all?

I could have you put in irons.

You could... but you won't.

Give me one reason not to.

You're about to march out there

and announce
that the most powerful city

in the world has a new leader.

Because of that letter.

Isn't it curious that the stroke
of a girl's pen

can change
the course of history?

Why did you do this?

Because chaos
creates opportunity.

For what?

For us.

(knock on door)

They are ready for you, sir.

You are chancellor now.

The real game is about to begin.

It's time for you to decide.

Are we to be friends?

Or are we to be enemies?

MAN:
Ladies and gentlemen
of Parliament...

the Leader of the Opposition
and the Chancellor.

My friends...

I come to you at this moment
of great loss

with an urgent message.

We are a city under siege.

From threats the likes of which

my father
could not have fathomed.

Threats from without...
and within.

We stand at the precipice
of a great and secret war.

It is not a war we asked for.

But by God,
it is a war we will win!

(cheering)

(crowd clamoring)

JONAH:
Even now, measures
are being taken

to protect the people
of this great city.

We will prevail.

We will steel ourselves against
those who plot our destruction.

We will meet their eyes
and not blink.

We will not compromise.

We will not negotiate.

Come on, move along.

See, now,
I believe you've made a mistake.

I was born here.

No exceptions, come on.
Keep moving.

JONAH:
We will hunt them...

to the very edge of the world.

We do not know
what the future holds.

But we know this.

Petty politics have divided
this chamber for far too long.

Divided we are weak.

We cannot be weak.

Not today.

Today we have a common enemy.

And we must stand as one
if we are to prevail.

I ask you now...

...honorable leader
of the opposition.

Will you stand with me?

I will.

(murmuring)

We will!

(cheering)

(overlapping chatter)

Fuck this, I'm leaving.

Fleury.

(overlapping shouting)

Vignette!

Vignette!

There you go, darling.

You're all right, mate.
You're all right.

Just Critch, mate, move along.

Philo!

Philo, I beg you,
don't make trouble.

I'll find a way out.

(whistle blows)

OFFICER:
We've got a flier!

-Let me go!
-Fleury, they'll shoot you

out of the fucking sky!
No!

(gasps)

Oh, God.

I'll find a way.

(whistle blows)

I told you, mate.

It's just Critch.
Move on.

I am Critch.

(applause)

SOPHIE:
Thank you, Chancellor.

A new day is dawning.

A change is coming
to this city.

Together, we have crossed
a line in the sand.

And we can never go back.
