Image result for the crown episode 8

602
-Hello.
-Your Majesty.

603
Aha! Yes!

604
-[Adeane] Ma'am. Prime Minister's arrived.
-Ready, go!

605
-Thank you.
-I'm fast.

606
-[Charles] Daddy! I'm going to get you.
-No, no, no! Chair! Chair!


607
-Mind the dogs!
-You can't get away from me!

608
 [Equerry] The Prime Minister,
Your Majesty.

609
-Congratulations, Your Majesty.
-Thank you, Winston.

610
-An unqualified[A1]  triumph.
-A narrow escape[A2] , I say.

611
It could so easily have gone
the other way.

612
But it didn't, and has put us
right back where we belong.

613
Higher, in fact.

614
And, before the tour,
our great nation was in danger

615
of losing much of its status,
our influence, our standing.

616
-Your courage and conviction [A3] prevailed.
-This time, perhaps.

617
But, in time, they will, surely,
grow tired of it. Grow tired of [A4] us.

618
Only if the Crown
and the people representing the Crown

619
00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:01,920
make mistakes, errors of judgement.

620
-My dear sister?
-Yes.

621
What would you have me do?

622
-Thank you, Ma'am.
-Your Majesty?

623
-Her Royal Highness is on her way.
-Thank you.

624
It's all right. I have been here before.

625
I do know the way.

626
-What, in there?
-Yes, Ma'am.

627
 [scoffs[A5] ]

628
Goodness!

629
-What have I done to deserve this?
-The brief[A6]  was simple.

630
Perform minor ceremonial tasks
with a minimum of fuss.

631
Not end up all over the newspapers.

632
I can't help it
if they want to write about me.

633
Well, it would help
if you didn't give them what they crave[A7] .

634
-Character and excitement.
-Instability[A8]  and drama.

635
Well, at least I give them something.
You give them nothing.

636
-I give them silence.
-Silence is nothing.

637
-It's the absence of noise.
-Emptiness. Blank page[A9] .

638
-Which allows others to shine.
-But the monarchy should shine.

639
The monarchy, yes. Not the monarch.

640
-Reparations[A10] will need to be made.
-To whom?

641
To the people you offended.

642
A general, to whom,
when asked if you'd like to dance,

643
you replied, "Yes, but not with you."

644
I believe there was also a debutante[A11] 
you managed to make cry,

645
and the dancers of Sadler's Wells[A12] ,

646
whom you refused to meet
after arriving late for the performance.

647
You showed individuality.

648
And that made people panic.
They don't want individuality.

649
The last person who showed "character"
almost took the ship down.

650
You are enjoying this.

651
-Not a bit.
-Yes, you are.

652
Admonishing[A13]  your unruly[A14]  young sister.

653
Have you ever thought
how it must be for me?

654
Many times. At great length[A15] . Wistfully[A16] .

655
You have a role, a clear set of rules.
All you have to do is follow them.

656
Margaret, you have freedom.
All you have to do is enjoy it.

657
You think that I am free?

658
To be constantly in your shadow.
Constantly the overlooked[A17]  one.


659
-It looks like heaven to me.
-What you have looks like heaven to me.

660
 [Margaret] Two sisters
who envy one another.

661
 [Elizabeth] We wouldn't be the first.

662
Pride and Joy.

663
-Remember? What Papa called us.
-Yes.

664
"Elizabeth is my pride
and Margaret is my joy."

665
"But Margaret is my joy."

666
I'm sorry. I have to claim
the few victories I'm left with.

667
And we're not disputing[A18]  it, surely?

668
-What?
-That I was Papa's favorite.

669
There's a cruel truth to it, isn't there?


670
When there are two sisters
so close in age,

671
the more one becomes one thing,
the more the other...

672
necessarily becomes the opposite
and vice versa[A19] .

673
It's the way of things.

674
If one is the Queen, must be the source
of honor and all that is good,

675
the other necessarily becomes
the focus of the most...

676
creative malice[A20] .

677
Evil sister.

678
-No one says you're evil.
-Next to you, I will always be evil.

679
Feckless[A21] ...

680
Lost...

681
Lesser thing.

682
And yet you spend so much time
telling me that I'm a lesser thing.

683
Only to give myself a moment's peace.

684
Would you consider doing it for me?

685
-Just from time to time.
-What?

686
Putting a foot wrong.
The occasional mistake.

687
Let the side down[A22] .

688
So I might not be so conspicuous[A23]  a failure
by comparison.

689
-You're tired.
-No, I'm not. Not tired.

690
I'm just asking for a future I can bear.

691
Margaret...

692
Do I have your word
that those apologies will be made?

693
We can help you draft letters
or make statements.

694
No need.
