I have cancer.

And it appears
to be winning.

'I can't be on the list.'

I hoped for something more.
I wish the same for you.

I will find you
the perfect queen.

And you're absolutely sure
about this?

Without a doubt?

Greta has true greatness
inside her.

Not just as an artist,
but as a person.

Did you mean
those things you said?

Of course I did.

'I just feel bad about Greta.'

Which is exactly what
King Robert is counting on.

My father was a small-time con
man from Las Vegas.

He taught me
how to work an angle,

any time, any place,
anywhere.

I spoke to your surgeon

and you're coming back
to the palace

to recuperate tonight.

Who's there?

'Three, two, one.'

Season 04 Episode 04

Episode Title:
"Black As His Purpose Did The Night Resemble"

Several hours without power
in the middle of a heatwave!

I want to speak to
the Prime Minister.

I'm told we've been unable
to reach him, Your Majesty.

Keep trying. I want updates
every 20 minutes.

How's it going
in South London?

- The violence is escalating.
- That doesn't surprise me.

Anything else
I should know about?

Um... As yet, we've been
unable to locate the Queen.

I suppose it's not as easy
as calling her cellphone.

Cellphones are worthless
right now.

There's a possibility
she's with Colin Yorke.

Perhaps check her regular
haunts. Discreetly.

Of course, Your Majesty.
I'll keep you informed.

And James...

My mother is
a resilient woman.

I'm sure she'll be okay.

Help!

Anyone! Help!

It's locked.

Damn it, Cyrus! You're creepy
enough in the light of day!

What are you doing down here?

Same as you, I assume.
I came to get drunk.

And I was doing a fine job

before you started pounding
on that damn door.

- Well, help me open it.
- Impossible.

The power's out and the lock on
that door's electric.

And without electricity,

even a team of Catherine
the Great's favorite horses

couldn't open that door.

- So we're trapped?
- Holy shit!

And you thought
I was creepy.

Mother!
What are you doing here?

This is always my first stop
whenever I visit the palace.

I need a little bracer

before I visit my...
disappointing daughter.

I meant: what are you doing
here at all?

- I banished you!
- Well, I unbanished myself.

- You've run out of money.
- Shut up, Scar.

And open that door!

This whole thing is becoming
incredibly boring.

- I can't.
- Just like I said.

Disappointing.

Guess you're stuck with
both of us.

Help!

Greta?

It's me.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Your door's open.
Are you okay?

Yes. I'm great.

How are you?

- Are you drunk?
- Yes.

Yes, I am.

You must be. It's possibly the only
justification for this decision.

A decision, I may add, that you
didn't have the courtesy

or respect to run by me.

- Possibly not for long.
- Prime Minister?

Reminding me that
I'm nothing more than

a ceremonial figurehead
and that she's in charge.

To which you replied,
"Possibly not for long."

Well played, Robby. Will
that get the power back on?

I'm afraid not.
The city's in turmoil.

And our prestigious government

has decided
to shut the bridges.

But why?

They're rioting
in South London.

They're trying to contain it.

Robby,
Jasper is in South London.

He was coming home tonight. What if
he's caught in the middle of it all?

If anyone can handle themselves
out there,

it's Jasper.

Yeah, normally.
But he's injured. We have to find him!

Absolutely not!
It's not safe.

Robby, we have to!

- Your Majesty?
- Willow. Good.

I need you to stay here with Len.
Keep an eye on things.

Locate Rosie, make sure

no one gets in or out
of the palace.

- Can you do that for me?
- Of course, Your Majesty,

but may I ask
where you're going?

To find Jasper Frost.

In South London, where you were
recently nearly killed?

Where Jasper Frost
was recently nearly killed.

I owe him my life.

Besides, he's kind of important
to my sister.

Robby...

just be careful.

Oh, I don't like this.
Can you see anyone?

Hey, guys, what's happening?

I do now.

Oh, they don't pay me enough
for this shit.

I'm getting out of here.

Wait for me!

Get out of
the bloody van!

I don't like the dark.

There's nothing
to be afraid of.

Yes, there is.

Monsters. Ghosts.

And witches.

There's no such thing
as monsters, honey.

She does have a point
about the ghosts, though.

Ghosts.

Do you think that's funny? Hm?

Well, just for that,
I hope a horde of zombies

comes to eat your brain.

Yeah, off you go.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

I'm just worried
about Jasper.

Now I'm also worried
about Robby.

Yeah.

- They're here.
- Who?

- Robby and Jasper?
- No.

The zombies.

They must have seen the lights
from the generators.

Or smelled our brains.

No, they're here
because we're their family.

We have to help them.

I'm coming with you.

But... we said
no one in or out.

- I found candles.
- Wonderful.

Now all you have to do is
make fire.

Here.

What would you do
without me?

Ooh, let's see.

Have more self-confidence,
sleep better,

not worry about being
accessory to murder.

Not become Queen.

I am so hungry.

We'll probably starve
to death down here.

Or rather, I'll starve and you
two jackals will eat me.

For that, I won't be sharing
my feast with you.

What feast?

This worm.

I plan to drink
this entire bottle of mezcal

and then eat the worm.

- Duchie?
- I'm in.

- Go to Hell-ena?
- No, thank you.

More for me.

What is this?

Mm, jackpot!

Figgy pudding.

Didn't the Queen get a black eye
from a figgy pudding

while having sex
with the help down here?

That doesn’t surprise me.
She’s always had hospitable loins.

On second thoughts, I'll have
some of that tequila.

Maybe I can get drunk
and pass out.

You're wasting your time!
There's no drugs in here!

You look like shit, son.

Dad.

Perfect.

We should go.

Argh!

No, forget it. Forget it.
Just leave me here.

It's good to see you too, kid.

I've prepared us a feast.

I used your barbecue to make the
steaks you had thawing,

I found potatoes
in your pantry,

and some green beans.

But what we really need
to eat

are these ice cream bars
before they melt.

Looks like we're on foot.

- Where are we headed?
- I'm headed to the palace.

I don't know where you think you're going.
What are you even doing here?

Maybe I just wanted
to see you.

Which means there's a job.

Or maybe I just wanted
to see you.

Look, you got shot.
I was worried about you.

- How's the chest?
- It feels like I got shot.

Ah, it's good for you.

Every man should get shot
at least once.

You'll be okay.

Don't pretend like you care.

Son, I've always cared.

Do you know what bothers me
the most about that?

More than anything, is that
even after ruining my life

and selling my story to the press,
you actually think that's true.

It is true.

You can't tell a man what he
does or doesn't care about

or what he does
or doesn't love.

It's incrdeibly arrogant. And you've been a
lot of things, son,

but you've never been arrogant.

You don't know what I've been
or who I am.

You just know who
I used to be.

Well, maybe
that's why I'm here.

- Let's go to the palace.
- I'm not taking you there.

Then let's just get you to the
palace and then I'll go.

I can get there myself. Argh!

No, kid,
I don't think you can.

Let me help you get back
and that's it, okay?

Okay. Come on.

Come on, let's go.

I'm sorry.

Those words you said
to my father...

..when you were defending me.

Were any of them true?

Of course they were true.

So we can be together, then?

For real,
without any secrets?

He was so pleased
to tell me.

And show me. My father.

He has motion detectors
in his office.

Security cameras.

He feigned sympathy,

pretended to be protecting me,
but I could tell.

He was thrilled that,
once again, I was the fool.

The simple, stupid girl who will
never be good enough.

- Greta.
- He's not wrong.

I don't know why, I just...

I've never been interesting
to boys

in the way that
most girls are.

I know it's true.
I'm aware of it, I just...

I just thought maybe this time
you actually liked me.

What I said about you
is true.

And I meant it.

Your father's wrong.

And so was I.

We're a family of liars.
We lie about everything.

All of it.

What have I ever lied about?

Um... killing someone?

I never lied about it.

I told the truth.
And what did it get me?

My own daughter abandoned me.

You're lucky all I did
was abandon you.

And you are a liar.

You lied about it
for 20 years.

You can talk. You lied to your
own children about their father.

We're all liars.
We have to be.

The people can't handle
the truth.

Truth or dare?

Truth or truth?

Len! Princess Eleanor,

I think we should speak
with someone.

Mum, Robby and Liam
are missing.

So who does that leave
in charge?

You're right.
Honey, where's your daddy?

Me. It's me. I'm number four.
I'm in charge.

And I say
we let those people in

and give them comfort
and shelter.

Now, who here thinks that we
should leave them out there?

They're not zombies.

I am Princes Eleanor
Matilda Henstridge

and at this moment

I am the ruling monarch
in residence.

Those people, my people,

are scared, tired and hungry.

Now, Rosie,
shoot the lock off.

I just think we should wait
until we...

Always wanted to do that.

Can anyone else hear
right now?

Nice going.
You deafened the kid.

So, Alice, do you want to have a
sleepover?

- Sure.
- See? She's fine.

Let's go help someone,
shall we?

Come on!

I assume they're standing
between you and your palace.

Yeah, I guess so.

Looks like
we're gonna need a plan B.

Come on. That's it.
Follow me.

Welcome to my home.

All right, now, just follow
the little munchkin.

She's up the front.
No photos!

Or I will cast you
back into the darkness.

You hear me?

That's right, keep going.
Welcome. Hello.

Hi, hi. Keep moving.
Keep moving.

Let's pick up the pace.

- Still concerned?
- Yup.

Rosie?

Slightly concerned,
Your Highness.

Right. Well, get over it, okay?

Because we are three
badass bitches.

Four, if you count
Sara Alice.

Without the bitch part.

And we can do this.

Come on.

Willow, you take everyone
to the red state room.

Rosie, if anyone steps out
of line, just shoot to kill.

I'm just kidding.
But Rosie, seriously,

we do need some food
and some drinks.

My mother was hosting some
who-gives-a-shit luncheon,

so just take whatever
the chef prepared for that.

That menu was caviar
and champagne.

Yeah, and cake. Do you not think
that's enough?

- Sounds good to me.
- What kind of cake?

Wait. Wait. Wait.

Willow,

when my father was stabbed,

we were all very scared
and confused.

But I'll never forget
what my mother said to me.

She said that the purpose
of the monarchy

was to lead
in times of trouble.

To stand before a confused,
worried and grieving people

and, in the face of
profound tragedy,

inspire them with our strength,
nobility and grace.

So most of these people,
they're scared and confused

and also likely never been
to the palace before.

So, we're going to help them.

And we're gonna do it
in a royal fashion.

If my father was here,
he'd say the same thing.

Okay?

Come on, then.

Lots to do.

Truth it up, Duchie.

This should be good.

I didn't mean to kill
Dominique.

You poisoned
the woman's horse

so your daughter
could be Queen.

But I didn't mean
to kill her.

It was an accident
gone wrong.

Anyway, it's all water
under the bridge now.

Which is exactly where
I dumped her brother.

It's reprehensible
how easily you say that.

Leadership requires cruelty,
Helena.

Like poisoning a horse?

If you want me to apologize
for the person you've become,

I won't.

If you want me to apologize for
the person you've become,

I won't.

That one led to a palace.

How's that for full circle?

Quickly turned into

I saw the King. He was
just over there, actually.

He went to see
if Jasper's OK.

Does anyone have any regard

for the security
of this family?

Um...

I'm not sure it could get
any worse around here.

And it just got worse.

I need a drink.

Maybe you could tell my daughter to
bring that bottle she's pouring.

Yep.

I found out
I was going to live today.

My cancer's in remission.

You believe that shit?

I lose the crown,

and I lose Violet...

..and now
I'm going to live forever.

Duchie, did you kill Violet?

No!

- Did you have her killed?
- Absolutely not.

Did you have anything to do with
her disappearance?

Well, I may have politely
threatened her a little bit.

Did you?

No. Maybe she just left you.

Woke up one day
and came to her senses.

Saw what you really are.

The truth is,

part of me was relieved
when she disappeared.

It's easier this way.

Getting close to someone,
needing their love, is...

..terrifying.

Being on your own
is far easier.

What about your children?

Who knows
if they're even mine?

Trust me, those inbreds
are definitely yours.

You can talk.

Your first-born son
is an arsehole.

Your daughter is a slut.

And Liam is a complete
and utter moron.

Liam trusted you.
And for what?

So you could lead him down some
dead-end path

and humiliate him in front
of his whole family?

I thought I could work
with him. I was wrong.

His DNA's simply
too defective.

Just like
your two other brats.

No, you're wrong.

They're glorious,
my children.

But any goodness they have,

any greatness...

..is in spite of me...

..not because of me.

You want some truth?
There it is.

Well, it looks like I'm the only
one who got it right.

Oh, of course.
We bare our souls

and you just traipse through the
fallout

all innocent and unscathed.

What are you doing
on your phone, Duchie?

We haven't even got a signal
down here.

Well, if you must know,

I'm writing a letter
to my lover.

What lover?

I've taken a lover.
An Italian count.

- I'm writing erotica.
- You're writing porn.

I've invited him here
to stay with me.

Here?

That's why you've come here!

You've run out of money

and you don't want
your porn count to find out.

So, you invited
your Italian stallion here.

Well, you can forget it.

I've converted your room
into a closet for my shoes.

Oh, darling, your room
is far too small

and the walls are too thin.

An Italian count getting
feely-touchy with the Duchie.

Darling, let me tell you,
these new hips are fabulous.

Oh, enough.

For the love of God,
let me out of here!

North London.

Better homes, better cars.

And better suits.

That looks to be
about my size.

Really?

It's blackout etiquette, son.

Power goes out and things are
free for a night.

Besides,
if I'm going to the palace,

I need to look presentable.

I'm not taking you to the
palace. That was the deal.

Not that you've ever kept
your word.

I helped you get here. Would you
really leave me behind like that?

I left you behind
a long time ago.

Son, come on, we're family.

No.

No, you're not my family.

Neither are they.
And they never will be.

Do you realize
you're about to throw a brick

through a shop window
to steal a suit?

I told you,
a little social breakdown

isn't a bad thing
once in a while.

What are you talking about?
People spend their lives

trying to make something
better for themselves.

So their neighbors could steal from
them, burn those lives to the ground.

People are opportunistic
and self-interested.

They always will be.

You'll forgive me
for wanting to make sure

my son was in a position
to take advantage of that.

No. No, I won't forgive you.

Whatever you're up to,
I don't want any part of it.

I hope the suit fits.
