Sisi - Second Season

We need her alive.

Take the horse.

End it!

Where is The Empress?

You traitors.

You do not want to leave before we get to know each other for real?

Ouch. Let me down. Ouch.

Let go off her.

You just ruined the loan contract with France.

Take her back to Vienna.

Now come along.

I'm supposed to go back to that prison alone? It's much worse than Sisi said.

What did Sisi say?

Ask her yourself.

As you wish.

If I tell you, am I allowed to come along?

She said the court is like a too tightly laced corset in which she'll soon suffocate.

Get in.

Is it true that there'll soon be a war?

Not if Sisi is successful in Hungary.

I have chosen my side.

What about you?

You are mad.

Franz Joseph will level Hungary to the ground when he get to know...

But he won't get to know it.

At least not now.

So...

Choose your side. - You sold our soul to Bismarck!

You're selling our soul to an emperor who doesn't care at all our people are starving in the streets!

Everything you are is a disgrace to your wife. - Shut your mouth!

How dare you?!

Emanuelle.

There must be another solution.

Stay out of this!

Sibling love.

Your master is a damn traitor.

If I may.

Hurry up!

Where are they taking us?

To a place where your husband will not find us.

Over here, come on. Move! Move!

[Austrian military basis. Hungary.]

Take me to your commander.

And who does the lady wish to be announced?

Countess Esterházy. Mistress of the Robes of Her Majesty The Empress of Austria.

Take me to your commander immediately!

Do not touch me.

Stop!

You are...Countess Esterházy.

Empress Elisabeth...has been kidnapped.

On top of that our remaining regiments would for three weeks...

Highness.

The Empress has been abducted.

By Hungarian rebels.

What?

This is from Countess Esterházy.

That is awful.

Does The Emperor already know about it?

I want you to depart to Hungary immediately.

What about Franz?

You know my son.

What will he do when he gets to know about this?

We want to stop a war.

You must tell him.

Hyah! Hyah!

One and hop.

One wrong word and I will pull your ears.

Aunt Ludovika.

Franz.

Please excuse me for announcing my visit so late.

You are very welcome.

And where is Sisi?

Your daughter is in Hungary.

In Hungary?

She is traveling on a political mission. Just as I am.

Forgive me. May I introduce to you? Marie.

Countess of Lotti.

I presume my father-in-law is once again indisposed.

He is not feeling well.

Darling, wait.

Helene.

Good day, Highness.

This is Maximilian Anton of Thurn and Taxis.

My husband.

It is a pleasure to finally be able to meet you in person.

Majesty, it is an honor to me.

Mapperl! - Majesty.

Spatzl, how many more times do I have to tell you that the chickens will not lay eggs anymore after that?

Forgive us, Highness.

Well, run.

Wait for me!

May I ask how long The Duke will be indisposed this time?

No one can say that but usually it gets better in the evening.

After a sip of cognac.

Hands off!

I hope Majesty had a pleasant journey.

Emanuelle, well done.

You're making a huge mistake.

Do you know what's the worst thing, hm?

When I look at your face,

I unfortunately no longer see the man she once loved.

Me neither.

The Crown is ready to help Hungary immediately with twenty million Guilders...

There is only one single crown for the Hungarians.

The Crown of Saint Stephen!

And that one...

...will never rest on the head of a monarch again.

Take your hands of her.

You can maybe impress friend Gyula here with such words, but not me.

No.

I will not rest before Hungary is free.

And I mean truly free.

This woman here is just as much to blame for our families having nothing to eat

and our children going hungry!

Look at her!

The face of an angel.

With the soul of a devil!

Don't forget that.

Take her away.

Come on, follow.

Forgive the mess, dear Franz, but Néné and Maximilian Anton also just arrived.

Their first trip as a married couple.

They are very happy together, are you not, Néné?

It was not easy to find a suitable replacement.

For The Emperor of Austria.

And who are you?

You seem to like it, hm?

I like it too.

And, what gives us the honor?

Should we not discuss this later with a little cognac?

Why not now?

I presume a Maison Courvoisier should be good enough.

So?

Is this a Brown Bess?

Well, someone is knowledgeable.

But this is not just any rifle, no, no.

This musket served me heroically.

I do not think I would exaggerate if I said this musket is a miracle weapon.

Her name is Mary .

I named her after the Mother of God.

What happened to your wife?

Andrássy, come.

What are your intentions for him?

It was in the Ionian Sea, close to the Gulf of Patras.

We were encircled by four ships.

And all of them had the black flag hoisted.

The black flag, do you understand?

They were real pirates. Like from a storybook.

At least seventy of them.

And everyone crawled under deck.

Only I...I stayed up alone.

Only Mary and I.

Seventy pirates from over a hundred meters. One after the other.

And you must know the sea was rough. There were such waves.

You do not believe me, hm?

Well then pay attention.
