Affection is a pressure
I can bear.
Oh, but I do have
handsome children.
John, you're so clean and neat.
Henry takes good care of you.
And Richard.
Don't look sullen, dear. It makes
your eyes go small and piggy...
and your chin look weak.
Geoffrey.
Is Philip here yet?
Not yet.
Let's hope he's
grown up like his father...
Simon pure and Simon simple...
good, good, Louis.
If I had managed sons for him
instead of all those little girls,
I'd still be stuck
and we should not have
known each other.
Such, my angels,
is the role of sex in history.
Thatwill be Philip.
Where's Henry?
Upstairs with the family whore.
That's a mean and tawdry way
to talk about your fiancee.
My fiancee.
Whosever fiancee.
I brought her up, and she
is dear to me and gentle.
king. Of course he does.
My, what a greedy little trinity
you are... king, king, king.
Two of you must learn to live with
disappointment. Ah, but which two?
Let's deny them all
and live forever.
Tusk to tusk
through all eternity.
Ah, my boys.
The king of France and I will
shortly have a tactile conversation,
like two surgeons
looking for a lump.
We'll state positions, and I'll make the first
of many offers. He'll refuse it, naturally.
I'll make a better one, and so on
through the holidays until I win.
For the duration of this joyous ritual
you will give to your father your support.
- My lord!
- Your grace!
Welcome to chinon.
Ah, that's better.
I was told you were impressive
for a boy of 17.
- I'm Eleanor, who might have been your mother.
- queen Eleanor.
All the others here you know.
I gather you're disturbed
about your sister and her dowry.
Sixteen years ago
you made a treaty with us.
- It is time its terms were executed.
That you will either hold the
marriage or return the vexin.
Alais marries Richard, or we'll
have the county back at once.
That's clear, concise
and well presented.
My position...
well, frankly, Philip,
it's a tangle.
Two years ago, the queen and I...
for reasons passing understanding...
gave the Aquitaine to Richard.
That makes Richard
very powerful.
How can I give him Alais too?
The man she marries
has you for an ally.
It's their wedding or the vexin back.
Those are the terms you made with Louis.
True, but academic, lad.
The vexin's mine.
By what authority? It's got my troops
all over it. That makes it mine.
Now, hear me, boy.
I am a king. I am no man's boy. A king?
Because you put your ass
on purple cushions?
- Sir.
- Philip.
You haven't got
the feel of this at all, lad.
Use all your voices.
