The Duchess with the Scalpel - Full Movie
Transcript
00:03Your grace, please! Send for the family doctor!
00:10My lady is with child and burning with fever! If this goes on, she will die! I beg you!
00:28Darling, what's all that noise outside?
00:30Who else? Your dear Duchess.
00:34Don't mention her. I married her only for her father's sake.
00:40Prince Alaric owes my parents a blood debt, and his daughter shall repay it.
00:45She is still your lawful wife.
00:48And carries your child in her belly.
00:50Child? She drugged me and forced that child on me. I wish I had never touched her.
00:57The only woman fit to bear my children is you.
01:03Your grace, let me deal with her.
01:18Please tell his grace my lady needs a doctor at once.
01:24You want a doctor? Then go find one yourselves.
01:28In a storm like this? You would send us out alone?
01:36The Duke said, if you had not drugged him, he never would have touched you.
01:42Just looking at your face makes him sick.
01:45And one more thing.
01:47I was never pregnant a year ago.
01:49You knelt in that chapel all night for a child that never even existed.
01:53You are dying, aren't you?
01:56When you die, he will marry me.
02:13My lady!
02:15My lady!
02:25Kale, I didn't know you despised me this much.
02:30But I won't cling to you anymore.
02:32I have no strength left.
02:35My lady!
02:36My lady!
02:39Surgery queen, where the hell are you? The party's waiting on you.
02:41That last surgery took 12 hours.
02:44I'm dead tired.
02:46I heard about it.
02:47The impossible case, right?
02:48In a field ruled by men, you became the best surgeon of them all.
02:52I seriously worship you.
03:03Wait, did I travel to the past?
03:06This feels like the memory of the original owner of this body before she died.
03:11My child.
03:13May this little soul rest in peace and find eternal joy in heaven.
03:17The service is complete.
03:19I remember now.
03:20This is one year before the original owner's death.
03:24The day Lilith faked her pregnancy and framed her for causing the miscarriage,
03:28in her last life, her husband forced her to kneel all night and pray for a child that never even
03:33existed.
03:36Since I've taken over her body, I'll live her life properly.
03:40And I'll make every last one of them pay.
03:43Elevin, the donation book is here.
03:45Sign your name.
03:46You will set up a mass fund for this child.
03:48And from this day on, you will come to this chapel every month to pray for him.
03:52Do not cry.
03:54We can have another child.
03:58Tonight, you will kneel here.
04:00Pray for that child's soul and repent for what you have done.
04:06In the house of God, forcing your lawful wife to repent for an infant who has never entered into the
04:11parish register goes against church rule.
04:13Duchess, if you do not want to pray for my child, you can simply say so.
04:19My child never even had the chance to be born.
04:23But then again, what kindness could I expect from the daughter of a man drenched in blood?
04:32Elowen, enough.
04:33Stop making a scene.
04:35I will deal with you outside.
04:40Do not touch me.
04:42You disgust me.
04:51I will not sign that.
04:53If there is nothing else, I am leaving.
04:59Is this another one of your games?
05:01Let me make this clear.
05:03Your father killed my parents.
05:05I will never forgive you.
05:06Never!
05:07Never!
05:11This is supposedly the funeral of your mistress's unborn child.
05:16And yet all you can think about is whether your wife wants your attention.
05:22And you, Miss Lilith, were you ever pregnant at all?
05:34What nonsense are you speaking?
05:36Is this how Prince Alaric raised his daughter?
05:39To defy her husband before God?
05:41Instead of lecturing me on obedience, your grace,
05:44perhaps you should ask Miss Lilith where the child's body is.
05:50Duchess, what are you saying?
05:52Do you truly think I would lie about my own child?
05:55This is Saint Candle Chapel.
05:57The only woman here with the right to speak
06:00is the lawful Duchess of Blackthorne.
06:03A mistress with no place in the parish
06:06has no right to interrupt me.
06:08So tell me, Lilith, where is the child's body?
06:10Why has no one ever seen it?
06:12I'm straight.
06:12Church law is clear.
06:14Even an unborn child must be entered into the parish record
06:17and witnessed by a priest before burial.
06:19If you want me to kneel here and pray,
06:21then show me the body.
06:24Father Damaso, bring the register.
06:26As Duchess, I have every right to know this child's record
06:30and where the body is.
06:32Your grace,
06:33it seems
06:35this child never existed.
06:38Your grace, this was our first child.
06:44I could not bear to let him go.
06:47That is why I did not ask Father Damaniel to register him.
06:50Then when the body is properly brought here
06:52and properly entered, I will come and pray.
06:55Until you know the truth,
06:57do not use a false charge
06:59to humiliate your lawful wife.
07:06Lilith, were you lying to me?
07:08Your grace, do you doubt me too?
07:11I see now.
07:13In your heart, I mean less than a few words
07:14from the Duchess.
07:15Of course, I am only a mistress.
07:18I have no title,
07:19no name.
07:23Elowen.
07:24One day that title will be mine.
07:27Just wait.
07:51What is it, Flora?
07:52Is something on my face?
07:53No, my lady.
07:54It is only...
07:56You seem different now.
07:57No matter how much I change,
07:59I am still your lady.
08:03Bring me pen and paper.
08:17Get everything on this list for me
08:19as quickly as you can.
08:20My lady,
08:21why do you need surgical tools?
08:23Do not ask.
08:24Just do as I say.
08:27Take the small path by the cottages
08:29and make sure no one sees you.
08:44I need the body of a newborn
08:46who died at birth.
08:49Quickly.
08:52What do you want it for?
08:57That is none of your concern.
08:59Do not worry.
09:01Once I secure my place as Duchess,
09:03that Duke will die soon enough.
09:06And when he does,
09:08the whole estate will be ours.
09:10But then you will be a Duchess.
09:12And I will still be nothing.
09:14You will forget me.
09:15Never.
09:16This is proof that I love you.
09:33Don't worry.
09:34The Duke and Duchess won't live long.
09:51My lady,
09:52I took the small path like you told me,
09:54and I saw Miss Lilith's with a man by the cottages.
09:57And I heard her.
10:00She is planning to get rid of both you and the Duke.
10:03Lilith,
10:03I never cared to dirty my hands with your filth.
10:06But,
10:06but if you want to destroy me,
10:08then do not blame me for destroying you first.
10:20I need a private room.
10:22No one is to disturb me.
10:24I am about to perform surgery.
10:26And I need a trustworthy nun to assist me.
10:31Surgery?
10:33The Duke would never allow such a thing.
10:36Your Grace,
10:37you should go elsewhere.
10:40Father,
10:41do not refuse me so quickly.
10:42Miss Lilith was never pregnant.
10:45Is that the truth?
10:47I would never lie in the house of God.
10:53Father,
10:54if Miss Lilith brings in a body,
10:56will you register it?
10:57If you do,
10:58you dishonor the Lord.
10:59If you do not,
11:00you risk offending the Duke
11:01and losing his support.
11:03But I can help you, Father.
11:05I can make this chapel known far and wide.
11:08My father is a prince.
11:10Compared to him,
11:11the Duke is nothing.
11:13Your Grace,
11:14what would you have me do?
11:20Find out who Lilith has been meeting in secret.
11:24If you can,
11:25bring me proof.
11:31This scar stayed with her for twenty years.
11:34So did the Duke's disgust.
11:38Today,
11:39I cut this scar away with my own hands.
11:42From this moment on,
11:44she and I are both reborn.
11:47Father,
11:48I have brought the child's body.
11:50Please enter it into the register at once.
11:52Right on cue.
12:19Right on cue.
12:22When you will pray for him
12:24and repent for your sins.
12:26My poor child from my last life.
12:28May your next life be kinder than this one.
12:31May God protect you.
12:32If your Grace wants everything done by the rules,
12:35then let us speak of the rules properly.
12:38What is there to discuss?
12:40Apologize to Lilith
12:41and spend the night repenting!
12:44Go on, Elowen.
12:46Take the blame for what never existed.
12:49Your Grace,
12:51Miss Lilith,
12:52please remain calm.
12:55According to church custom
12:57and the law of Victoria,
12:59before an infant who died young
13:01may be entered into the parish register,
13:04the body must first be examined,
13:06the cause of death
13:07and time of death confirmed,
13:09and a death certificate issued
13:11by a licensed physician.
13:14Only then may the process continue.
13:17This rule cannot be broken.
13:19Miss Lilith,
13:20where is the death certificate?
13:23Can you provide the time of death?
13:25The birth record?
13:30Where is the death certificate?
13:32Answer me!
13:34Since this child supposedly died,
13:36I have not even seen him once.
13:38What are you hiding?
13:40I was heartbroken.
13:41I forgot to call the doctor.
13:44Your Grace, please.
13:45You must believe me.
13:47You cannot show proof
13:48because this is not your child with the Duke.
13:52It is just a body you found somewhere else.
13:56You lied to me?
14:01This concerns the bloodline of House Blackthorn.
14:04If such a record were entered unlawfully,
14:07the entire family would be shamed.
14:09Your Grace,
14:10if I remember correctly,
14:12it was my father who secured your title.
14:14And House Blackthorn does not end
14:16with your branch alone, does it?
14:19No one speaks of what happened here today!
14:22No one!
14:24Lilith,
14:25how does it feel,
14:27being thrown away?
14:29And this is only the beginning.
14:30No!
14:32No!
14:51My lady,
14:52I found out.
14:53Lilith's lover is named James.
14:58Good.
15:06This is my scar salve.
15:08It helps heal and fade scars.
15:10Yes, my lady.
15:11I'll have it tested at once
15:12and get everything ready for the free clinic.
15:17You lied to me for six whole months.
15:21You made House Blackthorn a joke.
15:26I know I was wrong.
15:28I was just so afraid of losing you.
15:30I was foolish.
15:34I know my words mean nothing now,
15:37so let me prove my love another way.
15:53Your Grace,
15:54I heard Princess Ariana
15:56is hosting a tea in a few days.
15:59Will the Duchess be there?
16:01Why are you bringing her up now?
16:08I know I have no place there,
16:10but
16:11I want to apologize to you.
16:15Fine.
16:16You'll go as my distant cousin.
16:18Dress well.
16:19Do not embarrass me.
16:21Eloine,
16:22at the Princess's tea,
16:24I'll tear off your veil
16:25in front of everyone
16:26and make them all see
16:28that ugly face.
16:37My lady,
16:39you're so beautiful.
16:40Like a goddess.
16:43Tomorrow is Princess Ariana's tea.
16:46I want the whole capital to see this.
16:49The Duchess of Blackthorn
16:51was never some weak woman
16:52hiding behind a veil.
17:06Is the woman in white the Duchess?
17:08Yes.
17:09I heard she has a scar on her face.
17:11They say she's horribly ugly.
17:14Today's pastries were made
17:16by our new French chef.
17:17Please, everyone,
17:19do try them.
17:20Mmm.
17:22Mmm.
17:25Your Grace.
17:27The weather is lovely today.
17:29Why not take off your veil
17:30and enjoy it with the rest of us?
17:32I'm used to wearing it.
17:34Or do you think
17:34you're above the rest of us?
17:36You won't even show your face.
17:47Oh, Your Grace.
17:50I didn't mean to do that.
17:52You won't blame me, will you?
17:55My God, Elephant.
17:56Let's see how you hold your head up now.
17:59Go back to being that pathetic coward
18:02under my heel.
18:04You're beautiful.
18:06Like a fairy stepped out of a painting.
18:19No, that's impossible.
18:20No, that's impossible.
18:27Why are you so nervous around me?
18:29Feeling guilty about something?
18:32No.
18:33Of course not.
18:40Miss Lilith,
18:41there was a flower petal
18:42on your shoulder.
18:43I was only helping you remove it.
18:45Surely you don't mind?
18:47No, no, no, no, no, no.
18:51Go on, Lilith.
18:53Enjoy my special powder.
18:55This will be an afternoon
18:56you never forget.
19:08Miss Lilith,
19:10are you all right?
19:11Your face is flushed.
19:14It's so, so itchy.
19:16I can't bear it.
19:21So hot.
19:23So very hot.
19:25I need...
19:26Miss Lilith,
19:26what's wrong with you?
19:28Someone hold her back.
19:32Princess.
19:33I want it so badly.
19:54What is wrong with Miss Lilith?
19:56Even for a shameless woman,
19:58this is quite a scene
19:59to make in public.
20:02Get this shameless,
20:04vulgar woman out of here.
20:05She is never to attend
20:06one of my gatherings again.
20:18It seems all those rumors
20:20about you were lies.
20:22They said you were
20:23an ugly, lovesick fool.
20:25But actually,
20:27you are dazzling.
20:28Thank you, Your Highness.
20:30I'm still here.
20:31I'm still here.
20:35I'm still here.
20:37Everyone, stay calm.
20:40Guards, seal off the estate
20:42to protect the princess.
20:48Ariana Valamum,
20:49the first heir to the kingdom.
20:51Today marks your death.
21:10Ariana, can you hear me?
21:17Stop!
21:19What do you think you're doing?
21:22What do you think you're doing?
21:26Elven!
21:27What are you doing?
21:28House Blackthorn
21:29will go down with you!
21:31Hold on.
21:32Is that Elowen?
21:33Where is her scar?
21:34Why she becomes so pretty?
21:37The princess was hit by an arrow.
21:39It has to come out now!
21:42Please, all of you,
21:44save the princess!
21:51You cannot pull that arrow out here.
21:53It hit her in the right chest.
21:55The tip is too close
21:56to the subclavial artery.
21:58Idiot.
21:59Even I couldn't save her.
22:01Let her try.
22:03If the princess dies,
22:04it will all fall on her.
22:05If this lady insists
22:07on treat the princess herself,
22:08then let her.
22:10I am still here.
22:11If she fails,
22:12I will step in.
22:25What is going on?
22:27What happened to my daughter?
22:28Your Majesty,
22:29the Duchess insisted
22:30on treating the princess herself.
22:32None of us could stop her.
22:33Even Physician Sebastian
22:35was forced aside.
22:38Take the princess inside.
22:39She needs surgery now.
22:41Stop!
22:42And what exactly
22:43are you doing here?
22:44You are a Duchess,
22:46not a physician.
22:48Your Majesty,
22:49I can save the princess.
22:51I can keep her alive.
22:54Your Majesty,
22:55think carefully.
22:56A Duchess who has never
22:58practiced medicine
22:59dares to speak like this?
23:00The princess is royal blood.
23:02Her life is not something
23:04to gamble with.
23:07Your Majesty,
23:09if my daughter cannot
23:10save the princess,
23:11I will surrender
23:12every title and office
23:13I hold.
23:14I will take my family
23:16back to our lands
23:17and never set foot
23:19in the capital again.
23:20Take the princess inside.
23:23If you fail,
23:24you will pay
23:26with your life.
23:38Everyone out.
23:40Prepare a tourniquet,
23:41clean linen,
23:42a scalpel,
23:42forces,
23:43scissors,
23:43cat lid,
23:44needles,
23:44alcohol,
23:45anesthetic,
23:45and a clean change
23:46of clothes.
23:47Quickly!
23:49And what is that
23:49supposed to mean?
23:50Will our being here
23:51somehow ruin
23:52your little performance?
23:53This is basic medicine.
23:56Get out.
24:03Your magi-
24:04Get her whatever
24:05she needs.
24:27Why is it taking so long?
24:29Unless the duchess
24:30can't save the princess
24:31at all.
24:46Your majesty,
24:47she drove everyone out.
24:49She must be trying
24:49to harm the princess.
24:50Anything happens
24:51to her highness,
24:52none of us
24:53can bear the blame.
24:54Your majesty,
24:55search the operating room now.
24:57She may not be acting alone.
24:58Her accomplice
24:59could still be trying
24:59to kill the princess.
25:00Lord Chancellor,
25:01what exactly
25:02do you mean by that?
25:19Princess is not breathing.
25:23This is bad.
25:24The princess-
25:34This is bad.
25:35The princess isn't breathing.
25:37Elwyn killed her.
25:45Your majesty,
25:46the princess isn't breathing.
25:48The duchess killed her.
25:49She's one of them.
25:51She only pretended
25:52to treat the princess
25:53so she could finish the job.
25:54This is all my fault.
25:56I should have stopped her.
25:58If Sebastian
25:59had treated the princess instead,
26:01none of this
26:02would have happened.
26:03She ran
26:03because she knows
26:04what she's done.
26:06Alaric!
26:06Where is your daughter?
26:08Your majesty,
26:10this is treason.
26:12Seal the palace.
26:13Find the duchess.
26:15And search
26:16House Valamont.
26:17Who says I've done
26:18anything wrong?
26:22Your grace!
26:23Thank God you're back!
26:24Hurry!
26:25Kneel and beg
26:26his majesty's forgiveness.
26:27The princess is already
26:29gone!
26:31Confess now
26:32and he may still
26:33show mercy.
26:34Enough!
26:35If the princess dies
26:37because you kept
26:37delaying treatment,
26:39after the way
26:40you made a spectacle
26:41of yourself
26:42this afternoon,
26:43whole capital
26:43is talking.
26:45Save your tears!
26:52Damn it.
26:54Just like I thought.
26:57Pneumothorix.
26:58Pneumothorix.
27:02Duchess,
27:03what are you doing
27:03to the princess?
27:05Guards!
27:05Touch me
27:06and regret it.
27:07Waste one more second
27:08and she really will die.
27:27Stop checking only her nose.
27:30Watch her chest.
27:31Her lung collapsed.
27:33No breath at the nose
27:34doesn't mean she's dead.
27:35Lord Chancellor,
27:36the princess has barely
27:37made it through
27:38and you're already
27:38trying to bury
27:39House Valamont with her.
27:40You're awfully impatient.
27:43I was only concerned
27:44for the princess.
27:46The duchess is the one
27:47making a scene.
27:48Your majesty,
27:49the princess is out of danger.
27:51I've treated the arrow wound
27:53and the new smothorix
27:54has been dealt with.
27:55She needs rest now
27:56and close observation.
27:58I've already left
28:00the physician's
28:00detailed instructions
28:01for her treatment
28:02and medicine.
28:03If there is nothing else,
28:05I will take my leave.
28:07Not so fast, duchess.
28:09You saved my daughter.
28:11Name your reward.
28:13Your majesty,
28:14I ask for two things.
28:16First,
28:17grant me a medical house
28:19so I may practice medicine
28:20openly and save lives.
28:22Elwyn,
28:23have you lost your mind?
28:25Women cannot study medicine,
28:27much less practice it.
28:31Your majesty,
28:32Elwyn speaks for herself.
28:34She does not speak
28:35for House Blackthorn.
28:37Your grace,
28:37what you did for the princess
28:38was admirable,
28:39but I must speak plainly.
28:41Women do not belong
28:42in public life.
28:43A woman's duty
28:44is to tend the home,
28:46serve her husband
28:46and raise children,
28:47not stand before men
28:49with a blade in hand,
28:50diagnosing patients.
28:54What a narrow-minded
28:55thing to say.
28:56Elizabeth I
28:57ruled England
28:58as a woman.
29:00She was not hidden away.
29:02She did not depend
29:03on any man.
29:04She protected
29:05an entire kingdom.
29:07By your logic,
29:09was that great queen
29:10wrong as well?
29:14Well said.
29:15Your request is granted.
29:17As for the two of you,
29:19one is useless
29:20and the other is a liar.
29:21Sebastian,
29:22every royal medical title
29:23and office you hold
29:24is revoked.
29:25From this day on,
29:26you will never set foot
29:27in this palace again.
29:28Lilith,
29:29immediate revoke
29:30all aristocratic privileges
29:31you have enjoyed
29:32through excessive indulgence.
29:34Prohibit entry
29:35to the royal palace,
29:36royal estates,
29:36and all official social events.
29:39Your influence
29:40over the court
29:40is at an end.
29:49everyone,
29:50listen up.
29:51Starting today,
29:53Holy Candle Chapel's
29:54charity clinic
29:54will treat wounds
29:55and fever
29:56free of charge.
29:57This medicine
29:58was made by
29:59the Duchess herself.
30:00It cleans wounds,
30:01stops infection,
30:02and helps them heal.
30:04Princess Ariana
30:04used it after the attack,
30:06and now she has
30:07fully recovered.
30:08my face was burned
30:09in a fire.
30:12I begged doctor
30:13after doctor
30:14for help,
30:14and all they told me
30:16was I should be grateful
30:17to be alive.
30:18But the Duchess
30:19refused to give up on me.
30:21She cleaned my wounds,
30:22treated me every day,
30:23and gave me
30:25a second life.
30:26Some doctors have skill
30:28but no heart.
30:29Some have heart
30:30but no skill.
30:31The Duchess has both.
30:35Step forward.
30:36The Duchess will see you herself,
30:38free of charge.
30:39Form a line.
30:40The Duchess will see everyone,
30:41one by one.
30:45Your name is James.
30:49Isn't it?
30:51Your Grace,
30:51I am James,
30:53a commoner.
30:54I greet you.
30:59I heard you've been
31:00standing outside
31:00for nearly two hours.
31:01The charity line is packed,
31:03yet you neither came forward
31:04for treatment nor left.
31:06You just stood there
31:07watching my maid.
31:09So tell me,
31:10did you come here
31:10to be treated,
31:11or to watch us?
31:13No, Your Grace.
31:14It wasn't like that.
31:16I only heard
31:16your medical skill
31:17was remarkable,
31:19and wanted to see it
31:20with my own eyes.
31:20I did not dare
31:22come closer.
31:22You did not dare?
31:24How strange.
31:26You seemed brave enough
31:27to meet the Duke's mistress
31:28in a cottage
31:29behind the manor last night.
31:30Where did all that courage go?
31:32You...
31:33How did you...
31:35I did not dare you...
31:36I did not dare you...
31:36I did not dare you...
31:36I did not dare you...
