Kings

Previously on Kings

You've been transferred to shiloh.

You saved my life.

We can skip all that.

Besides you're the darling today.

You allowed an assault on your own soldiers.

You are not my king.

He's harmless. he's a cocker spaniel.

That cocker spaniel

Just got the best post in the military.

I wonder how he'd react if he knew about you?

Have you forgotten your vow?

what you do at night

With your boys is a disgrace.

We give up what we want when we want power.

I woke you.

I was up.

Why do i ever leave?

I'm happy when i'm here.

Daddy's here.

Finally!

How many tickets left in the lottery?

Only two seats remaining.

By order of the queen,

The first three rows for the first night

Of the royal ballet and gala tonight

Have been held for any citizen

Wanting to attend,

And clearly there are a lot of them.

Any official response

To reverend samuel's condemnation of the king?

Polls show us divided on port prosperity.

Not tonight we aren't.

No division nor anything else can disrupt first night.

It's strict orders from the queen.

Do you have a ticket?

J-86.

Next.

Pella dam is on the way

To compensate for the reservoir's loss

With port prosperity.

Drilling's slowed by protest.

Part of the campaign against the turnover of port prosperity.

"our blood, our land."

Good slogan.

Let me guess. reverend samuels.

He's spoken out against the port for peace plan

In his sermon calling for--

The court is no longer interested

In the opinions of the good reverend.

Perry?

Deleted from the records, sir.

Next petitioner.

Court calls miss michelle benjamin.

Petition on health care improvement, revised.

Revised?

We've seen this movie before, miss benjamin.

Will there be more woeful pictures

With no viable plan?

Numbers, sir. cold hard numbers.

Independent auditing indicating national savings

Should we incorporate early stage preventatives

And avoidable losses if we don't.

Esteemed king is welcome to ignore

The boon's considered action owe him,

Only he does so now at the expense

Of fact, profit, and public record.

Miss, you've been learning to speak fancy.

I have a fair teacher.

These projections would suggest--

Your sister certainly makes her presence known,

I'll grant her that.

She's starting to sound like him.

Yes.You Said he'd be ready at

I'll employ my military escort,

If i have to.

And i don't want any surprises tonight.

There's just been one.

A seating change.

Undersecretary charin has requested

To be seated next to captain shephard.

Along with a generous donation.

What kind of donation?

100,000.

He, quote, "wants to see what he'll do next."

We asked for 10,000 for a seat by the king.

Well, i see silas commands his thousands

While david brings his hundred thousands.

His star seems to be shining bright.

Yes, well, someone should see to that

And maybe consider tending his own.

Oh, four o'clock. well, then.

There is such a health care plan,

And i would hope that the government--

Apologies to the petitioner, but the king is

Through with politics for the day.

I waited a long time

For peace to prevail,

So the arts might have their day in shiloh.

Pass law,

Wage war tomorrow, if you like.

Tonight he's mine.

Starting to find your rhythm, sir?

I was just a little worried

I wouldn't get out of there in time.

I never thought i'd be this excited

About a ballet.

About that.

Unfortunately, we were one ticket short.

Last minute need,

One of the queen's biggest fundraisers.

We had to give away your seat.

The queen appreciates it.

It's not something i did, is it?

There will be other invitations.

100 grand, not bad.

I got the closed session in the boar room,

But that didn't cost anyone a dime.

I'm sorry, sir?

First night. should be fun.

Oh, i'm not going. they needed my ticket, so...

Let me guess. tomasina.

Maybe a story about a last minute seat

For a donor?

You've been uninvited.

My mother must have seen some advantage

In not having you there and she pursued it.

You didn't honestly want to go, did you?

I was hoping to see michelle there.

She's the princess.

If she wanted you there, you'd be there.

Don't get me wrong. she's my sister,

But you can't mind her moods.

No one has that much free time.

Don't blame yourself.

This is the greatest city in the world,

Provided you don't wait on my family

To show it to you.

Believe me.

My father throws me a bone in court

And thinks i'll forget a life

Of looking at me like a disappointment.

You know what?

I'll do you one better.

My ticket's gonna have to go to charity tonight.

I'm taking you out.

You don't-- you don't need to do that.

I think I do.

I think you need a friend.

I think you need a few friends.

I think it's lucky I ran into you.

I believe you know these gentlemen.

You flew my friends in from the front?

Hey, man!

What's up?

First night.

I can't believe we're really there.

Technically, we're not there. we're outside.

I think i saw a ballerina.

I don't see Jack.

He just called to say he won't be coming.

Something about attending to his star.

Sometimes your mother has a point.

Thank you.

I remember my first ballet.

Every ruffle, every note.

I thought I was watching angels

And asked where their wings went.

I had a dream, I hope is not too silly,

To take what captured my imagination

So absolutely once and bring it to you.

When we have art...

We have inspiration.

This is the true gift of my husband

To whom this night, and my thanks, is due.

You inspire all of us, sir.

And so tonight,

For the first time in our lifetimes,

Let angels dance in Shiloh.

Listen up, soldiers.

You've been recruited for a special assignment

To show Shephard a good time.

There are rules.

Rules?

Yes, rule number one. stay within earshot.

Someone messes with you, they handle it.

Guys like fights 'cause guys like a lawsuits.

Always fully protected. speaking of rule number two.

Take these.

The time comes, and it will,

Use your own, unless you like being called daddy.

And stay away from pins, needles,

And the sharp nails of gold diggers.

Ronnie makes good things happen.

Often in little skirts and in little baggies.

What? whoa!

The man's got taste. all in good time.

You are partying with royalty tonight,

So things are different.

Physics don't apply, and velvet
