Girlhood of a Queen (3) Falling in Love

But, Your Majesty, let's postpone the law for a year. The father of Your Majesty, Prince Albert of Saxony-Coburg. I think he'll be fine. I'm glad, Your Majesty. Lord Melbourne has to visit us. He's already coming today. Really? And will he stay longer? Hopefully. His Majesty wants to marry him. There you go again. Everyone wants to marry me. The mother, the uncle, you. You even want to marry me with a child. But this child is already 25 years old. A dwarf? But no, Your Majesty. I couldn't think of anything else. Prince Albert will be present at today's birthday dinner and... He's coming too? Then we have three candidates for marriage at the same time. It's only my concern. Lord Melbourne, I warn you. You don't know me. I don't let myself be forced into anything. I don't let myself get married either. This time you'll regret it. I'm proud that I've never regretted anything in my life. George, come here. Your Majesty's orders. Baron Leedsen should be ready. We're going to Windsor for a few days. One more thing. George, can you be quiet? Your Majesty's orders, I can be quiet. Can you coach? You must be able to coach. Your Majesty, we're going to Windsor. But we're going to Dover. We're going to Paris. To Pa... To Paris? George, I told you not to wonder about anything on this journey. Yes, Your Majesty. To Paris. He's very handsome. Yes, so romantic. Excuse me, Your Majesty. George, do you think this thunderstorm will stop? Your Majesty, I wouldn't be surprised. I can't think of an attack today. Ask if we can spend the night here. Your Majesty, we can't be in this ordinary fishing pub, in the middle of the sailors. Ask. And now stop it, Your Majesty. You can't recognize us here. The baroness is my aunt. Do you understand? The baroness is the aunt of your... George. My goodness. George. What? I'm supposed to marry the queen of England? Is that why you sent me here in this terrible weather? Is this the pleasure journey you promised me, Professor? I would have expected that from everyone, not from you. Your Majesty, I shouldn't have told you the purpose of the journey earlier. Because I knew exactly that you would never have brought me here otherwise. Oh, now you know exactly. I was not only your teacher, but I was also, if I may say so, your friend. Exactly. The diplomacy of your country is in the view that this marriage would be blessed for all of Europe. If the gentlemen diplomats are not able to bless their countries in a different way, then you should... Your Majesty? Don't worry, I won't say anything. George! You, the fire is going out. Bring wood. What should I do? Bring wood. Right away, madame. Who is there? I'm bringing the wood. Lay it down, please. Lay it down? There's only lead in there, it just needs to be heated. Then heat it up. Heat it up? Fine. Do you want to make such a noise? I can't chop wood without making a noise. What are you doing? Heating. But that's way too much wood. Too much? Can I take something out of it? Take everything out. Everything? Everything. Everything, everything. First comes the paper. Oh, yes? Let me do it. Please. It's burning. It's really burning. How did he do that? My paper. You don't seem to have used it often. I haven't either. I'm usually not a housekeeper. What are you? I'm a German student. I arrived by ship this evening. You're a guest? Yes. And you dared to come into my room? Excuse me, you asked me to... Please, go away. Please. But... Get out! Excuse me. Tell me... Yes, please. Was Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg on the ship you came from Germany with? How do you know that the prince wanted to come to England? Oh, I just heard it. So, was he on the ship? Yes. I see. What does he look like? He's a very nice guy. He's about this tall. He wanted to come to Queen Victoria's birthday party, didn't he? Of course he did. He wanted to. He even wanted her to marry him. But that won't work. Why not? First of all, he doesn't even think about marrying her. And secondly... How do you know that so well? I don't know that well, but... Do you have to walk around like a prince? No, he won't do that. No, no. Besides, the queen is supposed to be a very small dot. Dot? Yes. What is that? Dot. That's a dot. What? She's a cuckoo? Yes, a dot. Well, now that's a big dot. But the queen is supposed to be a much, much smaller dot. Well, you're a small dot too, but... A rather small dot. Get out. Again? Excuse me. I'm going. Dot. Where are we sitting? Up here. May we invite the lady to a glass of wine? Oh, thank you, sir. No, that's completely exclusive. You won't be able to say no, madame. We want to drink like these people here on their queen's birthday tomorrow. Ah, of course you can't say no. May I introduce myself? Professor Landmann, my teacher. Would you like to dance? But I don't know how to dance. May I show you? With pleasure. But, my child, you can't dance here. Why not? On the queen's birthday, you're allowed to. Of course. A lovely cuckoo. One, two, three. A little slower. One, two, three. Lighter. One, two, three. That's fine. One, two, three. Wonderful. One, two, three. Rick? How did you get up here? Love's light swing carried me. No stone can resist love. And love dares to do what love can do. Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare. I know. But you mustn't think you can talk to me like that just because I accepted your invitation for a glass of wine. I'm sorry. You're going to fall down here. Not anymore. You're holding me. I swear, madame, by the holy moon, the silver of these trees will rise again. Quiet! I can't keep you here until you've finished your Romeo. I'm already at the second act. But please, I'm skipping a few performances. I'm leaving. Let me kiss you one more time. You're underestimating yourself. Can I ask you how long you'll stay in Dover? Until tomorrow morning. Then I'll go to Paris. I'll accompany you. That's not possible. It is. No. It is. No. It is. Go away. The pain of love drinks our blood. Farewell. We'll meet again. That's from me. Who's there? It's me, madame. What do you want? My lady, I have to speak to you urgently. But not now. My lady, I would certainly not dare to enter your room if I were not forced by important circumstances. Please, leave my room immediately. Please. I'm not a diplomat. I don't want to go without a whistle on my goal. I don't know your material conditions very well, but I assume that you are not particularly rosy. Please, I offer you 30 pounds. 30 pounds if you leave Dover with your aunt without delay. Tell me, did you drink too much? Yes, definitely. But I'm still completely sober, my lady. Please. Your departure also fulfills a great patriotic duty for your fatherland, I would say. I want to explain that to you. But please, you will not betray me. This young man with whom I am here is not a German student, but a German prince. Prince Albert of Saxony-Coburg. That's Prince Albert? Yes. No. Yes, yes, yes. And he is supposed to marry the young queen Victoria tomorrow. And imagine, he wants to go to Paris with you instead of going to London with you. But that's not possible. That's nonsense. They will see each other, won't they? Yes, yes, yes. So please, are you willing to leave the image care without delay? Immediately. That's very nice of you, very nice. But do you think that he will definitely go to London tomorrow But he has to. That's right, he has to. Of course, he has to. So please, do you want the money now? Of course. Otherwise I could not disappear. Immediately. But four pounds is enough. Four pounds is enough? Please, four pounds. What's going on? Call the ambulance, we're going back to London. When? Right now. Right now? For God's sake, we can't pay the bill. Yes, yes, here. Majesty, where did you get the money? That's my secret, and that's for you. For me? Yes, for the aunt. For the aunt? Tomorrow at my birthday party I will get engaged. With whom? With Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg. But Majesty, you have to sleep it off first. Sleep it off first. I should be this tall. This tall. But I will always wear a crown. It makes a taller figure. Yes. Or higher heels. Yes, yes. Or a higher hairstyle. Oh, Majesty. Majesty, you're not small at all. You think so? No. You're right. I'm medium-sized. Yes, yes. I'm small. Wait, what am I? Yes, I know. I'm a stuffed animal. What? A stuffed animal. A very small stuffed animal. Who said that? He did. But he's much prettier than me. Much, much prettier.
