The Royals - Season 3 Edit

A crystal bathed in the light of a full moon,

A manipulation, and I won't be manipulated.

A manipulation, and I won't be manipulated.

A tiger is always in season, Sebastian.

About my purchase and our lunch.

About the fight, the way I behaved.

Actually, there's someone I wanted you to check out for me.

After you.

Ah, it was the least I could do. It was a good day.

Ah. Clarence. I'm gonna need your jacket.

All I see is a low rent shaman with a bird on his head.

All the proof you need is on this drive.

And £65,000, preferably in cash.

And a representation of my heart's desire.

And for most of his life, he sold orthopedic shoes in Lewisham.

And for once in your stubborn, reckless life,

And had to give up when I came home.

And I meant what I said.

And I think I owe you an apology.

And I'll feel more comfortable knowing you aren't wearing a wire.

And if she agrees with you,

And in return, I'm gonna give you a story

And it shouldn't be about who was born first.

And it's your home now, too.

And keep my crown from...

And knowing that, you put it on me,

And let's talk about how we can make things better for you when I get back.

And make him try it on, like Cinderella.

And most likely treasonous on your part.

And my only flats are brown.

And no matter how we got here,

And now I'm putting clothes on you.

And one... oh, one stupid girl holding her breath,

And that would make you happy? Or at least, happier?

And that's exactly what I did.

And the King will save you.

And the relationship she's having with her bodyguard.

And the restaurant.

And treacherous as that seems, you said it yourself,

And we both know that's not Cyrus.

And yet here I am,

And you could have trusted me. That's what friends do.

And you did. You have. #KingLiam bears that out.

And you want to resign over a schoolboy crush?

And you'll keep your crown.

And you're a guest, so act accordingly.

Any of what?

Apologies for the interruption, Your Majesty.

Are you enjoying yourself?

As a matter of fact, I'm... not sure I have any at all.

At Christmas, you said you'd accept any version of me.

At least, I thought I did.

At that point, I'm just an employee doing my job,

Because I was being a good friend,

Before Robert came back,

Being the person I've become since you left.

Besides,

Black, black, black. Yes, yes.

But apparently they don't exist anymore.

But for what it's worth, in a very short amount of time,

But have you seen the other Naked Tigers yet?

But he didn't need to hear it from his brother,

But I don't respect your methods.

But instead you chose not to. So either you don't trust me,

But just so you know, tigers mate for life.

But maybe it's not me, either.

But now I'm wearing them,

But this is Robert's time.

But this one does.

But we both know he's not ready.

But when Robert left, and Dad was killed,

But you have a future with me,

But your evening's schedule has been arranged.

Can you see this?

Clothes for dessert? Delicious. You're good.

Clumsy and selfish.

Come here, teammate.

Come on, then.

Come on. Be honest. Part of you enjoyed being recognized.

Comes and goes.

Could you do better?

Cyrus's reign is nearly over.

Depends who I'm growing old with.

Designing full time?

Did you just buy this restaurant?

Did you pose for this?

Do we understand each other?

Do you live here?

Do you understand that?

Do you wanna talk about it?

Don't answer that.

Don't ask where I was keeping the money. Or my phone.

Don't count me out, birdman.

Don't diminish what this is, what you mean to me.

Don't do that.

Don't.

Done. Whatever it takes to beat this cancer

Eleanor had a date today.

Essential to me.

Fine.

For protection, you know.

For the family, and for the people.

For this, it may be.

For what it's worth, you really rock those stripes.

Go away. Unless you're from the palace.

God can suck it. You save the King, Wescott,

God save the King.

Good location. You're out of milk, by the way.

Good.

Great... Well, at least I'm dressed for it.

Has been spent covering for you regarding your appearance in Paris.

Have a good night...

Having drugs inside you was more palatable

He simply asked for some time away.

He wants to talk to you.

Healing your soul is the key to curing your cancer.

Heart's desire, full moon crystal,

Her Majesty had experienced a couple of good days with me.

Hey, Boone. Still living the good life, I see.

Hey, hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hi! Damn it...

Hi.

Hi. Is Kathryn here?

Hired me to kill the next King of England.

His name is Brandon Boone, 24 years old, military.

His real name is Murray Mathis,

Hm!

How are you doing with the break up?

How are you doing? Nice to meet you.

How could you put me in that position?

How do we do that, heal my soul?

How old is he now, eight?

How sudden it all was.

How was Paris?

How was Paris?

Hunt that monster down. It's a menace.

I always will, no matter what.

I am the secret weapon.

I can't blame you. I mean, look at me. I'm amazing.

I could do worse.

I did, yes.

I do come here, eat her food, steal her clothes and things.

I don't have many friends, Spencer.

I don't know that I would.

I don't know. Maybe I should just walk away,

I don't know... I guess at a certain point

I don't push people away!

I don't want to miss any of it.

I expect to remain the King of England.

I feel like I coach a women's basketball team.

I feel stupid.

I feel stupid.

I finally found some direction and meaning and...

I guess because I let you down and I suck at this job.

I had a great day.

I had fun today. Thank you for buying me the T shirt and the clothes,

I hadn't really considered what you'd gained,

I handle social media for the family.

I have cancer, and it appears to be winning.

I hope you've got enough ink in that pen.

I just keep thinking to myself how quickly everything changed,

I just thought heels are completely impractical,

I knew you weren't wearing a wire

I know I haven't always been the son you needed me to be,

I know it in my heart.

I know something happened. I just don't know what it was.

I know that.

I love this jacket!

I love this skirt. I love those boots.

I love you very much.

I made a call and had a few things brought in.

I mean deferring to me

I need to be good at things.

I owe you an apology.

I really just need a friend right now.

I really missed her. Seems like she's missed me too, which is nice.

I refuse to walk on eggshells in my own palace, Mr. Hoenigsberg.

I respect your point.

I see a nice table right over there.

I spent the day with you pretty much naked,

I spilt something on it. I had to get it cleaned.

I suppose a fox would do.

I suppose it does.

I think I've solved our bodyguard issue.

I think my security should lead the way.

I think you look fabulous.

I told Miss Hozier it was a sort of princess rite of passage.

I told you I wouldn't be the girl waiting for you to show up, Liam.

I told you I wouldn't take this job if it got in the way of us,

I took the liberty of performing a background search on your shaman.

I totally suck at this.

I trained in special ops, so this is nothing for me, OK?

I tried to become someone you could believe in,

I understand you have a story for me.

I want to make sure things are in order with the Privy Council.

I want you to put me forward as the next king.

I was concerned. I thought...

I was just... Where was I supposed to put my gun?

I was ready to rule this kingdom, and I still am.

I was ready, Mum.

I was...

I wasn't afraid!

I will fight for you

I won't apologize for it.

I won't let the cancer take me.

I won't let the cancer take me.

I'll destroy the file on you and the princess, deal?

I'll find my own way out.

I'll get you proof.

I'll pay you in puka shells and patchouli oil,

I'll stand behind you.

I'll take a look, and if the story's true,

I'm a journalist, Mr. Frost.

I'm a princess, full time

I'm always a spectacle.

I'm going to go and return the shirt to Liam

I'm gonna blow my goddamn brains out.

I'm not ashamed of my past.

I'm not supposed to speak unless you speak to me first.

I'm Sebastian. This is my number.

I'm sorry. It wasn't fair to you.

I'm sure she did.

I'm the King of England, and following the tribunal

I'm working on a story about Her Royal Highness Princess Eleanor

I've already decided.

I've been thinking about how you styled the gala.

I've heard all about you, Mr. Parker.

If I lose the crown,

If I lose, I'm going to kill myself.

If I'm gonna lie for you, the least you can do is loop me in.

If it were a battlefield, someone could have died! I can't let that happen!

If she truly believes that this is your time,

If the Privy Council votes against me...

If we're going to take the crown off Uncle Cyrus.

If you can't accept that,

If you cure my cancer,

If you get caught you'll go to prison.

If you'd have chosen Liam, I would have supported him.

Important.

In the event that you do want to cover that tiger pelt,

Is calling me Mummy suddenly too informal?

Is he as nice as he seems?

Is Kathryn gonna be famous? Make sure you mention me!

It attacked me while I was minding my own business.

It bit me like it was some kind of wild animal.

It means nothing without proof.

It means you could have told me about you and Kathryn.

It should be about who would make the best monarch...

It was really impressive.

It wasn't a move. I was just... being clumsy.

It will not be easy.

It's a vicious killer.

It's adorable.

It's adrenalin left over from the ring. It's done and forgotten.

It's been a difficult year, Mr. Hoenigsberg.

It's been a struggle giving that up.

It's been established.

It's confidential.

It's not just that.

It's time to focus on the task at hand.

Its blood is gonna save my life.

Just for your information...

Just in case I'm on my feet all day I should wear something practical,

Just let me know if you need a break, Your Highness.

Just trying to give them a good show.

Just, um...

Kind of pricey for a holy man.

Leave it with me.

Let the two of them fight over it.

Let's go and find out who's going to be the next King of England.

Let's just say there's plenty of food and very little sun in their habitat

Let's talk about Dubai.

Let's talk about that, changing your luck.

Letting you go and being away from you has been impossible for me.

Liam and I have been talking. And well...

Liam needed to hear that.

Liam, I get it. I truly do.

Liam...

Life.

Listen, I've been thinking about what you said,

Living here in solitude, away from the scrutiny and noise,

Long live King Robert.

Long live the Queen.

Look, I tried to get hold of a tiger,

Love.

Ma'am.

Maybe it's you.

Maybe that's what you need to see.

Maybe there's hope for you yet.

Maybe.

Me.

Might I inquire why, Your Majesty?

Mum?

My life.

Nice pic you posted of Robert on his date.

Nice place.

No matter what transpired along the way,

No matter what, okay?

No recorders.

No, I'm just her sister Angie.

No, no, no, no.

No, the least I can do is employ you.

No, you're right. That was shit advice. It just actually made it so much worse.

No! No, no... Please don't hurt it!

No.

No. (SNIFFS)

No. Are you really from the palace?

None of your business.

Not at all. I thought we were meeting for tea.

Not Cyrus... not Robert.

Not so fast.

Not whatever.

Of course I could.

Oh my God, look how cute he is.

Oh my gosh! It's you! I can't believe it!

Oh, it's a little one. It's a cute little baby one.

Oh, my mates are gonna be so jealous!

Oh, no.

Oh, right. Cancel it.

Oh, so you've told Brady all about it?

Ohh! (GIGGLES)

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay. Smile.

Once again, a spectacular view.

One more for luck. There we go.

Ooh, that little guy in the corner is creepy.

Or you don't consider me a friend.

Or, in the grand scheme of things,

Or... wanted me to be.

Out of some kind of passive aggressive cowardice!

Pardon the interruption, Your Majesty,

Perfect.

Perhaps you should hear this from him.

Previously on The Royals...

Princess!

Probably has rabies.

Put 'em up, Sparrow!

Raising a family and growing old together.

Rarr!

Ready to go?

Redemption, maybe.

Regardless of your methods, it's done.

Regardless of your methods, it's done.

Regrettably, yes.

Reluctantly, I agree with it.

Represent yourself well, make a good accounting,

Resolute and unified in our support of Robert.

Right away, sir.

Right now, I'm off to see Kathryn. Come here.

Right.

Right. Um...

Robert will support it, and so will the people.

Robert.

Sebastian Idrisi?

Sebastian, I meant what I said at the gala.

Sebastian! Hi.

Secure your offerings and we will heal your soul.

Selfishly, I thought perhaps

Shall we have a picture together?

She's moving on, you can move on and never look back.

She's moving on?

Shut your mouth and listen.

Silence. You tell your story, she doesn't tell mine.

Simply not available to the likes of you.

So don't give me any grief about it when I do.

So I... I guess this would be the part

So maybe it's something you can fix.

So put your phone down

So stop being a pussy and get back to work.

So take it.

So what should we do?

So... apparently word may have leaked

Someone England could believe in.

Sometimes I wish I could just go back and wipe my past.

Sorry. Right. (CLEARS THROAT)

Start over.

Stop. Don't worry about it.

Tell her I said hello.

Than having the sheikh inside you, which is nothing to be ashamed of

Thank you!

Thank you. Like I said, it was a welcome distraction.

Thanks for today. Thanks for trusting me.

That hasn't been experienced since the days of William and Mary.

That table is available,

That was crazy today, wasn't it?

That wasn't very fair on you.

That will provide the foundation of...

That you ran drugs for a low rent sheikh?

That's exactly what you're being.

That's my move.

The blood of a powerful predator,

The charming, fabulously wealthy American investor.

The crown is all I have to live for.

The crown. Cyrus won't go easily. The public were intrigued by Liam.

The House of Henstridge is about to endure the kind of turbulence

The man who killed the last King of England

The most powerful predator of all,

The people were excited about it, and so was I.

The person stood in his spotlight,

The person who he now has to support.

The symbolic representation of your heart's desire,

The toughest table in town. But I know a guy.

Then I'll support that.

Then mean it now, for God's sake. I need you here.

Then we should go and speak with her.

Then you have one.

There's been a change of ownership.

There's been so much drama between us,

There's something else you need to know.

There's your crystal, the blood...

This has always been Robert's destiny.

This is gonna cost you more than last time.

This is not a battlefield. This is my home.

This is Robert's time.

This is the British monarchy, Mr. Hoenigsberg.

This morning, for the first time in a long time,

This tiger's starving. Come on.

This was an ambush,

Those girls recognized me.

Though I normally go for the trousers.

Though you've chosen your footwear wisely,

Tigers never leave their pack!

Tomorrow's a new day, in better shoes.

True, but it is your Lord Chamberlain's business.

Trust me. If we're comparing views, mine wins every time.

Um... I am.

Um... I'll stop by another time.

Um... the boots are mine. Don't be greedy.

Until you ambled into my path and cost me everything I cared about.

Very nice.

Very well.

Very well. I'll be just outside.

Visualize a healthy, healed you.

Wait here.

Wait, your name's Rosie Hozier?

Waiting for him to find his brother's shirt, or find out about us.

Waiting for you to show up.

We all do things we regret,

We all loved that dress you wore to the People's Gala.

We are. Come on.

We need to be unified as a family

We will fill the four corners of the spirit world

We're hardly sympathetic characters in this production.

Well, if I can't have that chance, maybe you can.

Well, it's not about you, is it?

Well, it's not about you, is it?

Well, Mum was about to prove your paternity,

Well, yes, people will be naked,

What about a fox? Cunning, sly, sneaky.

What are you thinking about?

What do you get out of this?

What do you get out of this?

What if I don't want to talk to you?

What story?

What, you want to be like me?

What?

What's happening?

What's he like, Prince Robert?

Whatever it is you're trying to become.

When the Council meets,

When we face the Privy Council, we need to be a family,

When you were gone,

Where did you get that?

Where I would kiss you, if this were a date.

Where's my security detail?

Which absolves you of all of it.

Which predator sacrificed this blood?

Who says you can't do both?

Who says you can't do both?

Whose shirt is this?

Why would you help me?

Why? What's going on?

Will you support it as well, Mum?

Willow...

With all due respect, Your Majesty, most of my day

With four offerings,

Yeah, and I meant it, then.

Yeah, but my luck might change.

Yeah, everybody says that.

Yeah, it certainly is.

Yeah, you do. You really do so far.

Yeah.

Yeah. Princess.

Yeah. That's right.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yes, sir. Sorry, sir.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Yes. I was just...

Yes. We make an amazing beet salad. You're gonna love it.

You are. You're great.

You didn't know he was still alive

You do seem to be motivated by something else.

You ever think about making it more than that,

You fine feathered freak.

You give some shit advice sometimes, you know that?

You give them a good show. I'll give them a good fight.

You have become...

You have been nothing short of miraculous.

You have to ask yourself if your worlds are better apart.

You know what might make it better?

You know, without the event, we're basically an airbrushed spectacle.

You know...

You like it?

You mean, deferring to you out of respect?

You might not

You need to go.

You need to think long and hard about your place in this monarchy.

You see, that is what you do. You twist things and push people away.

You should tell her exactly how you're feeling,

You spill something on his shirt, so he has to take it off...

You tell him you'll support him as king, then make me the bad guy!

You tell me. That help you?

You want to find out?

You were positioning me to be the ruling monarch.

You were right.

You were the one who was too afraid to strip off.

You will.

You, me, all of us.

You, on the other hand... you'll still have that haircut, Frost.

You'd better get used to that.

You're a tad overdressed for today's activity.

You're gonna bury the story about the Princess and me,

You're my brother, and I love you.

You're the one that crashed Prince Robert's plane?

Your Highness?

Your Highness.

Your Majesty, could we speak to you?

Your Majesty?

(GRUNTS) Stay down, Sparrow

A contender for the Princess's heart? Not if I can help it.

And all these people posed with you? Hm.

And no more crying. Yes! I don't know why I'm crying!

And that matters to you? It matters to Eleanor. For Eleanor.

as in completely naked. But not us, right?

Because I care about you? Just get back to work.

blood of a beast... And £65,000.

But I won't apologize either. For what?

But it wasn't. Okay. That's fair.

Can I have a word? Yeah.

Can we have a picture, please? Um... okay.

Chop chop. (LAUGHS)

Cute kid. Get out.

Did you call me a pussy? Yes. I did.

Do I at least get breakfast in bed? No.

Do they now? No, I just made that up.

Do you understand me? Yes, Mum.

Don't say that. It's true.

Enjoying the view? It's lovely.

Er... the truth? Mm hm.

For two, please. I'm afraid we're booked up.

Good fight, big brother. Did you think you'd actually beat me?

Good morning, Your Majesty. Do you want to have sex?

He's okay. (GASPS)

Hi. Hello.

Hi. Oh, no. Have you been crying?

How? Don't worry about it.

I assume Her Majesty hasn't yet called? No, sir.

I can see that. This is Brandon Boone.

I can't do it. I won't. I never asked you to.

I couldn't tell you. You could have.

I don't think I will now. You would if you care about me.

I I'm sorry... what is it? A fox.

I'm calling the police. And telling them what?

I'm not wearing a wire. I'll be the judge of that.

If you want to hang out... It wouldn't be a date.

Is she worth it? She is.

It ran through my secret door. So there's a fox loose in the palace?

James? Did he say where he was going? No, he didn't.

Just doing my job. Whatever.

Kathryn? (GASPS)

May have leaked? Did leak? Did leak.

Nice shoes. Yeah, I know.

No refunds. Same. Good luck.

No you're not. I can't do it, Helena.

Not a date. Fine.

Not bad, for the likes of us. (LAUGHS)

Not really. Okay.

Oh, have you now, Princess? Yes. Rosie.

Oh, I... Could you check again?

Oh. Speaking of...

One of these days, Frost. Tell her your damn story.

presumably to place you on the throne. That's right.

Prince Robert was killed. By you.

Prince Robert's? No. It's Liam's.

Right. Not that anything's wrong with that.

Run along. Mm hm, mm hm

Said the woman with no friends. Said the queen with no friends.

So we can play with it? No, so I can kill it.

So where exactly is this fox now? How the hell would I know?

Sorry? The likes of us? Let me just make a call.

Sorry. Hi.

Sparrow. Don't call me that.

Thanks for being naked for most of it. It's the least I could do.

Thanks for the T shirt. You're welcome.

That's some tale. It's true.

the King of England. Unacceptable.

There's no need for that. I think there is.

Two princes! Just one prince.

Uh uh. Actually, sneaking off was my idea.

Unbelievable. You're not resigning!

unless you tell me to stop. I know it hurts.

Very well. Is there something you'd like to say?

Well, as long as Your Majesty's okay. I'm fine.

Well, mostly naked

What, with who? Just some naked prince.

which is more than you've been lately. What's that supposed to mean?

Which is? Naked tiger run.

Why did you trust him anyway? Because I don't want to die.

Wow. No flirting.

Yeah? Food.

You are such a slut. From before.

You can speak now. Thanks! Hi.

You could do that? For you?

You have Jack. You're my friend.

You just getting back? Yeah. Kathryn says hi.

You two know each other? Yeah. We're old friends.

You two, you're a team. Yeah.

Your Majesty... You'd better find it, Hill.

Your Majesty... You're resigning?
