In a land of myth
and a time of magic,

the destiny of a great kingdom
rests on the shoulders of a young boy.

His name, Merlin.

Aren't you scared?

-Of what?
-That you might catch whatever it is.

I'm the court physician, Merlin.
This is part of my job.

Most of the time there's
nothing really to be scared of.

You were saying?

People mustn't see this...
They'll panic.

Dad? Here's your sandwich...

-Mmm, what's in it?
-It's smoked pigeon,

but I'd say there's more smoke
than pigeon.

You're such a good girl to me.

And I've done you some
watercress soup tonight.

Don't tell me...
With more water in it than cress?

-I'll see you later.
-Okay. Bye.

What are you doing?

Just moving something.

-Looks heavy.
-It's nothing really.

-Someone got you flowers?
-No.

Would you like one? A purple one.

Purple suits you.

Not that I'm saying
that red doesn't suit you.

Thanks. Well...

-See ya.
-Bye.

You look happy.

-I picked these for you.
-That's so sweet.

Something to cheer you up,
I know you're not sleeping well.

You cheer me up.

Would you like me
to put them in water for you?

I've never seen
anything like this before.

Do you think it could
be some kind of plague?

No, I fear that something like this
could never come from nature.

But who has this kind of power?

-You think it's caused by magic?
Merlin!

I'm on my way. Sorry I'm late.

Don't worry, I'm getting used to it.

Oh, uh...

Gwen. She gave it to me.

Tell Gaius that my father
wants to see him now.

Okay.

-Gaius?
-I heard.

Why couldn't he just tell you himself?

'Cause that's the way it is,
you're a servant.

If he knew who I was, what I've done...

You'd be a dead servant.

-Right. Get this covered up.
-Hey, I'm not your servant.

No, you're my dogsbody.
Come on, hurry up.

-What's happened to him?
-I don't know, sire.

It's the second case I've seen today.

Why didn't you report it to me?

-I was attempting to find the cause.
-And what did you conclude?

I don't think it's time
to hurry to conclusions.

The scientific process is a long one.

What are you concealing from me?

Sire, I have seen nothing like it.

The victims are dying in 24 hours
and it's spreading fast.

So what is the cause?

I think you should say the cause,

the most likely cause, is sorcery.

-You must find who did this.
-I will, Father.

Conduct door-to-door searches,
increase your presence in the town.

Double the guards on all the gates.

-Lend the physician your servant.
-Merlin? But...

We need Gaius to find a cure.

He needs all the help we can give him.

If Gaius is right, believe me,
this city will be wiped out.

This is the kind of magic
that undermines our authority,

challenges all we've done.

If we cannot control this plague,
people will turn to magic for a cure.

We have to find the sorcerer
and quickly.

Yes, Father.

Gaius? Gaius? He's still alive.

I'm afraid there's nothing
we can do for him.

But we haven't tried.

If we don't know what the disease is
then how can we cure him?

-With magic.
-Have a look.

They're suspicious of everyone.

This is not the time to be using magic.

Science will lead us
to the source of the disease.

What are you doing?

I'm examining the contents
of that man's stomach.

Will that tell you who did it?

No, it'll tell us how it's spread.

One thing I do know,
this is magic of the darkest kind.

Why would someone use magic like that?

Magic corrupts.
People use it for their own ends.

But not all magic is bad.
I know it isn't.

It's neither good nor bad.
It's how you use it.

Over there. I'm sorry, Gaius.

-We're searching every room in town.
-What for?

-The sorcerer.
-And why would he be here?

-I'm just doing my job.
-We've nothing to hide.

Go on, then. Search.

What are all these books and papers?

My life's work. Dedicated to
the understanding of science.

You're quite welcome
to read through them if you wish.

-What's this room up here?
-It's mine.

What do you expect to find in there?

I'm looking for material or evidence
suggesting the use of enchantments.

What have you done
with the magic book I gave you?

Merlin, come here.

Look what I've found.

I've found a place
where you could put things.

It's called a cupboard.

How long do you think it may be
before you find a cure?

Depends on how many interruptions I get.

Of course.
I'm sorry, we're finished here.

-We have to hide that book.
-No, we must use it.

Don't be stupid.

If I have this legacy
then what is it for?

You keep telling me
it's not for playing tricks.

You want to practice magic
when the King is hunting for sorcerers?

Are you mad? Merlin, your life's
destined for more important things.

But what if I don't practice, then
how will I get to be this great warlock?

There'll come a time
when your skills will be recognized.

-When? How long do I have to wait?
-Patience is a virtue, Merlin.

Sitting by and doing nothing,
that's a virtue?

Your time will come.

I could cure that man we saw.

I know it's tempting
to use the way you find easiest, Merlin.

It is when it would save a life.

It's no good just saving one person.

We have to discover
how this illness is spreading.

Arthur is out there right now
looking for the sorcerer.

A sorcerer who is
powerful enough to do this

will never be found searching the town.

So what can we do?

Hope that science can find
the answer before it kills us all.

We've searched everywhere,
the entire city.

-Nothing?
-I don't know where else to look.

I want you to impose a curfew,

no one is to be allowed on
the streets after the great bell.

-Father.
-And cordon off the lower town.

Why?

Because that's where
most of the victims are.

Let's isolate it.
Stop this disease from spreading.

But what about
the people who live there?

Don't you think I haven't considered it!

What else can I do?

I have to protect the rest of the city.

What's different
about this victim?

Uh, she's a woman.

Sometimes I do wonder
whether your magical talents

were given to the right person.

Anything else?

-She's a courtier?
-Ah.

But how does that help us?

Courtiers seldom go down
to the lower town.

So what does that mean?

That she hasn't spoken
to any townspeople...

Yes. It suggests that the disease
is not spread by contact.

-And they probably eat different food.
-Good. Anything else?

I doubt they breathe the same air.

So what's the only thing they do share?

Water.

Water. You think the disease
is spread through the water!

Merlin, you're a prodigy.

Time to get up, Dad.

Dad?

Gwen?

Gwen? Gwen?

-Gwen.
-Gaius.

-You have the sickness?
-No. My father.

Please, Gaius... He's all I have.

-Gwen, I have no cure.
-I'm begging you.

I wish there was something. Anything.

But so far, the remedy
is beyond what I can achieve.

I'm sorry, Gwen.

-There must be something we can do?
-My best.

Let's hope that this can
provide some answers.

But that will be too late
for Gwen's father.

I fear you may be right.

What about that one? In there?

It's empty, sir.

Father! What's happened?

I can't believe it.

Don't touch it!

I had this in the water
for no more than a few hours.

Where was the water from?

The pump from where the people
take their daily supply.

We have to stop
the people from using it.

The city cannot survive without water.

Then we have to find this sorcerer.

I don't believe that
they're inside Camelot.

Then extend the search to the villages.

We've started.
I can't search the entire kingdom.

And I can't stand by
and watch our people die.

How's your father? Is he feeling better?

Yeah, it's incredible. It's a miracle.

-His skin's clear, back to normal?
-Yes.

-Great.
-You don't seem surprised.

No, no. I am. It's a miracle.

But how did you know he was well?

Because you're smiling.

It's really weird because
I haven't told anyone, but you know.

How could you know?

Yeah, all right.

You've finally found out...
I'll tell you...

-I'm psychic.
-No, you're not.

-It's true!
-All right, what am I thinking?

-That I'm not psychic.
-You're strange.

I don't mean that in a nasty way.

You're just funny.

I like that.

I'm pleased for you.

-Thank you.
-What for?

I don't know, just for asking.

I didn't like to see you upset.

I have to get on.

-The story is you were sick.
-Not anymore.

Perhaps you were suffering
from some other ailment.

You're joking. I felt like death itself.

Not enough strength in me
to stir the air.

Then what happened?

I don't know. Suddenly, it was gone.

-I'm fitter than I was before.
-That's remarkable.

Was anybody with you
when all this happened?

Just my daughter Gwen.

-Seize her.
-No!

Guinevere, I am arresting you for crimes
in contravention to the laws of Camelot,

-that you did practice enchantments.
-Gwen?

What have I done?
I haven't done anything!

-Help me! Please!
-What're you doing?

-Found a magic poultice in her house.
-That's ridiculous.

How else do you explain
her father's recovery?

She is innocent. I know she is innocent.

What can I do? I can't turn a blind eye.

No, please. Listen to me.

Please. I haven't done anything.

You have to listen to me, please.

I'm innocent, I swear. Let me go!

I swear to you.

Merlin! Merlin! Please help me.

Why won't you listen to me?
Merlin, please...

-What have you done?
-What?

I warned you.

Oh, I understand,
you thought you were doing good.

I couldn't let her father die
knowing I could cure him.

Did you not think it might look a bit
suspicious, the curing of one man?

Then all I have to do is...
I'll cure everyone.

No one will ever have to know
it was magic.

It's too late.
They think Gwen's a sorceress,

-they think she caused the disease.
-But she didn't!

And how're you going to prove that?

Please listen to me.
I have done nothing. Please.

I swear I haven't done...

-Well done.
-Why will no one believe me?

He got better. He just recovered.
I didn't do anything.

I believe you! Perhaps this is a disease
that is not always fatal.

Have you thought of that?
Perhaps he recovered naturally.

Then what of this poultice
that was found?

What poultice?
I know nothing about a poultice.

It was found in your house.

Undo this enchantment.
Put an end to this contagion.

-I can't.
-Then I can show you no mercy.

I am not a witch.
I don't know how to stop the illness.

If you will not undo your sorcery,

you force my hand
and I must find you guilty.

It is therefore my duty
to pronounce judgment.

And under the circumstance,
I have no choice

-but to sentence you to death.
-No!

I can only hope that when you die,
this evil plague dies with you.

-Take her away.
-No, please, no.

I'm innocent! Please, no.

Please, help me. Please, I beg you.

I know Gwen, she is my maidservant,
not an enchantress.

Have you ever seen an enchantress?

Believe me, they bear no sign, no mark.

There is no sense of evil in the eye.

I have seen the way the girl works.

Her fingers are worn,
her nails are broken.

If she was a sorceress,
why would she do this?

Why would she kneel on a cold
stone floor morning after morning

when she could make these things happen
with the snap of her fingers?

-Like an idle king.
-You have no right...

But you have the right
to cast a judgment!

I have a responsibility
to take care of this kingdom.

I take no pleasure in this.

But you are sentencing the wrong person.

She's right, Father. You hear
the word magic and you no longer listen.

You saw it for yourself,
she used enchantments.

Yes. Maybe.
But to save her dying father.

That does not make her guilty
of creating a plague.

One's the act of kindness, of love,
the other of evil.

I don't believe
evil's in this girl's heart.

I have witnessed what witchcraft can do,

I've suffered at its hand.

I cannot take that chance.

If there is a slightest doubt
about this girl,

she must die
or the whole kingdom may perish.

I understand that.

One day you may become king,

then you will understand
such decisions must be made.

There are dark forces
that threaten this kingdom.

I know, witchcraft is an evil,
Father, so is injustice.

Yes, I am yet to be king, and I don't
know what kind of king I will be.

But I do have a sense of the kind
of Camelot I would wish to live in.

It would be where
the punishment fits the crime.

I fear you are right.

She's played with fire
and, sadly, she must die by fire.

I thought I was doing good.

And that curing Gwen's father
would help her.

I thought I was saving a life.

It seemed so simple.

An easy solution is like
a light in a storm, Merlin.

Rush for it at your peril,

for it may not always lead you
to a safe harbor.

I can see that now.

How many times have I warned you

about the responsibilities
of being a warlock?

I must see her.

Gwen.

Thank you.

-What for?
-For coming to see me.

-I'm sorry.
-It's not your fault.

It's all right. Don't worry about me.

There's no point crying about it.

I mean, I'm not saying that
you were going to cry about me.

-Obviously, I don't think that.
-Oh, Gwen!

-I can't have this happen.
-Please.

One thing... You don't have to...

But...

What?

Remember me.

You're not going to die.

I'm not going to let this happen.

What if burning this witch
doesn't stop the poison?

How do I protect my people?

My men have closed down the water pumps.

But the emergency supply
won't last for much longer.

We have to find a way of
cleansing the water of the disease.

-But how?
-Well...

It was me!

It was me who used magic
to cure Gwen's father.

Gwen is not the sorcerer, I am!

-Merlin! Are you mad?
-I cannot let her die for me.

I place myself at your mercy.

He doesn't know what he's talking about.

I do.

-Then arrest him.
-Father, please. I can't allow this.

This is madness.
There's no way Merlin is a sorcerer.

-Did you not hear him?
-Yes.

He's admitted it.

-He saved my life, remember.
-Why should he fabricate such a story?

As Gaius said,

he's got a grave mental disease.

Really?

-He's in love.
-What?

-With Gwen.
-I am not!

-Yes, you are.
-No way.

I saw you yesterday
with that flower she'd given you.

-I'm not in love with her.
-It's all right, you can admit it.

I don't even think of her like that.

Perhaps she cast a spell on you.

Merlin is a wonder.

But the wonder is
that he's such an idiot.

There's no way he's a sorcerer.

Don't waste my time again. Let him go.

-Arthur's the idiot.
-No, he was right to do what he did.

And thankfully he saved you
from your own stupidity.

What else could I do?
It's my fault Gwen is going to die.

Yes. But you don't prove her innocence
by offering to jump into the flames.

You do it by finding out
what's causing the disease.

Whatever it is, one thing's for sure,
Arthur's not going to find it.

He thinks he is so sharp.

Even when I told him I was a wizard,
he still couldn't see it.

Sometimes it's pretty hard to spot.

Maybe I should go around
wearing a pointy hat.

I don't think you'd find one big enough.
Anyway, forget that.

If we're going to save Gwen,
we have to find out

what's contaminating the water.

The water from here
supplies the whole town.

Take a sample.

Let's take it back and examine it.

What the hell was that?

Here!

It was an Afanc.

-An... A what?
-A beast born of clay,

and conjured up only by
the most powerful sorcerer.

Now we have to find a way to defeat it.

But where?

That'd take days.
Gwen will be dead by then.

Have you got a better idea?

Gwen.

I'm going to get you out.

I will.

Hello!

Hello!

The great warlock returns,
as I knew he would.

I need to know how to defeat an Afanc.

Yes, I suppose you do.

Will you help me?

Trust the elements
that are at your command.

Elements? But what is it I have to do?

You cannot do this alone.

You are but one side of a coin,
Arthur is the other.

I don't understand.
Just tell me what it is I have to do.

No!

Please, help me.

I have.

Oh, yeah, right. Thanks.

Have you found anything more?

I've tried.

I can keep looking.

People are dying.
We can't delay any longer.

We must kill the witch.

Bring her execution forward to tonight.

-Merlin, what are you doing?
-Looking for a book.

-Care to tell me which one?
-A book on elements.

-Elements?
-Yes.

-Which one would I find them in?
-Most of them.

The study of base elements is at the
very heart of the scientific process.

But how'll they help me kill the Afanc?

Well, the Afanc is a creature
made from earth and water.

-That's two of the four base elements.
-What about the other two?

Well, perhaps they will destroy it.

You want fire. Wind and fire.

-How did you find this out?
-I just knew.

-It's part of my powers.
-What else do your powers tell you?

That I am only one side of a coin.
The brighter side, obviously.

-And who is the other side?
-I think that might be Arthur.

They're bringing forward the execution.

-We have to prove Gwen's innocence.
-We're trying.

Please, just tell me
what I can do to help.

-We need Arthur.
-Arthur?

There's a monster, an Afanc,
in the water supply.

-That's what's causing the plague.
-We must tell Uther.

The Afanc's a creature forged by magic.

Telling Uther wouldn't save Gwen.

He'll blame her for conjuring it.

-So what are we to do?
-We need to destroy it

then the plague will stop
and Uther may see sense.

-And that's why you need Arthur.
-He's our best chance,

but he won't want to disobey the king.

Leave that to me.

Are you all right?

I'm sorry about all this.
Merlin's not been in today.

-Poor Merlin.
-Yeah.

To offer to give up his life
to save Gwen's.

I certainly can't imagine
any man loving me so much.

No, I certainly can't
imagine that either.

That's because you're not like Merlin,

he's a lover.

Yeah, maybe that's because I haven't
found the right person to love.

Sadly, the age of gallantry
seems to be dead.

You look around
and all you see are small men,

not big enough to fill their armor.

There's not one of them that's
able to stand up for what is right.

What do you want me to do?

You'd better be
right about this, Merlin.

-You should stay here.
-I'm coming with you.

-No.
-Scared I'll show you up?

Father will slam us both in chains
if he knew I'd endangered you.

Good thing he doesn't know about it.

I'm telling you, Morgana, turn back.
You could get hurt.

So could you,
if you don't get out of my way.

-How are we going to find it?
-Just hope we do before it finds us.

-Stop.
-What?

It's just a shadow.

Spread out.

What is it? Are you all right?
-Yeah.

-Did you see it?
-Yes.

-What does it look like?
-It's quick.

Where is it?

I think it's gone this way.

Arthur, use the torch!

Merlin!

This is really good.

Good news, sire, there are no new deaths
and those that are sick are recovering.

Good.

Strange, I've never heard
of an Afanc before.

It's conjured from clay
by powerful magic.

The type that can only be invoked
by an ancient sorcerer,

one who has the power
to mirror the spirit of life.

I found this at the water source.

It bears the mark of Nimueh.

No!

We must be vigilant, sire.

-Will I never be rid of her?
-Sire...

Leave me.

Dad!

Oh, my baby.

-Thank you.
-Don't thank me, it was more Merlin.

-Really?
-He's the real hero here.

-I don't know what to say.
-I didn't do anything.

I'm grateful to you all. Come on, Gwen.

Merlin? I wanted you to know,
your secret is safe with me.

-My secret?
-Come on, don't pretend.

-I know what you did.
-You do?

-I saw it with my own eyes.
-You did?

I understand why
you don't want anyone to know.

-Well, obviously...
-But I won't tell anyone.

You don't mind me
talking to you about it?

No, it's...

You have no idea
how hard it is to keep this hidden.

Well, you can continue to deny it,

but I think Gwen's a very lucky woman.

-Gwen?
-It's our secret.

This fish didn't come
from the water, did it?

Well, where else
is it going to come from?

The water's fine now.
That's not your worry.

This was the work
of a very powerful sorcerer.

I hope you didn't come to her attention.

Doubt it. No one else
seems to appreciate my skills.

I just want someone
to see me for who I am.

One day, Merlin, one day.

One day what?

One day, people won't believe
what an idiot you were.

Thanks.

Merlin, you will pay for this.

Merlin!

If I don't get the antidote,
what happens to Merlin?

He will die.

His pulse is weaker.

His fever's getting worse.

He's dead.
