00:04.547 --> 00:06.632
-[intense music playing]
-Previously on House of David…

00:06.716 --> 00:08.509
Fight with me!

00:08.592 --> 00:10.720
[soldiers clamoring]

00:12.596 --> 00:14.432
[grunting]

00:15.558 --> 00:19.854
-Tell David I'm sorry I doubted him.
-[sighs]

00:19.937 --> 00:23.566
You have been planning
the takeover of my throne.

00:23.649 --> 00:25.860
-This offer of marriage is over.
-No, Saul.

00:25.943 --> 00:28.195
-[shouts]
-[crowd gasps]

00:28.279 --> 00:30.197
[grunting]

00:32.533 --> 00:35.035
You and I are the only two
of our line that will survive.

00:35.119 --> 00:37.705
We are Israel's only hope.
You must crown me king.

00:37.788 --> 00:39.790
[groaning]

00:39.874 --> 00:41.000
They're running away.

00:41.083 --> 00:43.127
[panting]

00:43.210 --> 00:45.129
Victory!

00:45.212 --> 00:47.214
-[cheering]
-Giant-slayer!

00:47.298 --> 00:49.842
Father, there is no one
more worthy for us to honor.

00:50.634 --> 00:52.762
My sword. It is now yours.

00:52.845 --> 00:53.971
Thank you.

00:54.054 --> 00:56.307
Guards! Arrest the Seer.

00:56.849 --> 00:58.017
This is finished, Samuel.

00:58.100 --> 00:59.727
No, Saul.

01:01.061 --> 01:02.646
It is just beginning.

01:09.987 --> 01:11.530
[Mychal] History will tell you

01:11.614 --> 01:15.242
that the House of Saul
was defeated by his enemies.

01:15.993 --> 01:20.748
Others will tell you that there was never
supposed to be a king in Israel,

01:20.831 --> 01:24.168
and for this reason, God forsook him.

01:25.795 --> 01:32.510
But I will tell you that a house
divided against itself cannot stand.

01:32.593 --> 01:36.263
And my father was not defeated
from without.

01:36.347 --> 01:38.724
He was overthrown from within.

01:39.558 --> 01:44.188
From the one closest to him,
one he trusted.

01:44.939 --> 01:46.732
The one I loved.

01:46.816 --> 01:48.859
[horse whinnying]

01:51.362 --> 01:52.613
[Abner sighs]

01:52.696 --> 01:55.074
[David] Abner, what troubles him?

01:56.158 --> 01:57.952
[Abner] Many things that trouble the king.

01:58.035 --> 01:59.662
I'm sure seeing you will remedy them.

02:08.254 --> 02:13.050
[door opens]

02:20.724 --> 02:22.059
[Saul] It is you, isn't it?

02:29.650 --> 02:30.651
My king?

02:33.362 --> 02:36.907
[Saul] I loved you, trusted you.

02:38.659 --> 02:40.703
And still, you betrayed me.

02:42.037 --> 02:43.622
My king, I am loyal to you.

02:46.333 --> 02:47.751
As I always have been.

02:50.212 --> 02:52.464
[intense music playing]

02:53.257 --> 02:54.800
Loyal…

02:58.554 --> 02:59.930
Are you?

03:04.476 --> 03:06.478
No more deception.

03:06.562 --> 03:07.897
Speak the truth.

03:10.399 --> 03:11.942
Did Samuel choose you?

03:13.193 --> 03:16.238
-My king, please just sit down--
-[Saul] Did he choose you?

03:17.114 --> 03:18.115
Did he?

03:19.158 --> 03:21.118
-Did Samuel choose you?
-No.

03:23.579 --> 03:24.747
No.

03:27.041 --> 03:28.417
God chose me.

03:28.959 --> 03:30.544
-[pants, shouts]
-[music ends]

03:41.805 --> 03:43.807

03:59.490 --> 04:00.491
[Ahinoam gasps]

04:22.137 --> 04:24.139
[crowd cheering, applauding]

04:41.115 --> 04:45.369
People of Gibeah, welcome home your king.

04:45.452 --> 04:48.580
-[cheering continues]
-Yes! Yes!

04:50.457 --> 04:54.962
[Abner] Saul, son of Kish,
returning to you victorious in battle.

05:07.641 --> 05:12.271
[Saul] My people,
God has shined upon us once again.

05:12.855 --> 05:14.732
We keep this between us for now.

05:14.815 --> 05:19.111
[Saul] Even as the Philistines
brought forth their mighty giant, Goliath.

05:19.194 --> 05:20.279
I understand.

05:21.655 --> 05:24.575
And, Mother, he will too.

05:25.951 --> 05:27.327
We did this out of necessity.

05:29.621 --> 05:32.791
It will be shock enough for him
to see you return from exile.

05:34.043 --> 05:36.086
No, I will decide
when it's best to tell him.

05:37.504 --> 05:39.423
[Saul] …with only a sling.

05:39.506 --> 05:44.261
And he slayed the mighty giant
with a single stone.

05:44.344 --> 05:46.055
[cheering]

05:52.686 --> 05:56.356
Now, if there are any doubts
if God is still with us,

05:56.440 --> 06:00.194
let this be a message to us all.

06:00.277 --> 06:04.114
God has given us the victory!

06:09.620 --> 06:12.247
Would you like to meet the giant slayer?

06:12.331 --> 06:14.249
[crowd cheering] Yes!

06:14.333 --> 06:18.045
David of the tribe of Judah.

06:18.128 --> 06:21.340
Simple shepherd, musician.

06:21.423 --> 06:26.053
Now, champion for all of Israel.
Step forth!

06:30.432 --> 06:34.686
[crowd chanting] David! David!

06:42.736 --> 06:47.908
From this day forward,
you will join the House of Saul.

06:47.991 --> 06:51.203
My daughter will be
given to you in marriage.

06:53.330 --> 06:54.665
[chuckles]

06:54.748 --> 06:57.626
And, David, as a reward for your bravery,

06:57.709 --> 07:01.296
I give you command of a thousand men!

07:01.380 --> 07:02.714
[crowd cheers]

07:08.971 --> 07:11.181
-[chanting] David! David!
-David!

07:15.144 --> 07:17.521
[chanting continues]

07:21.066 --> 07:22.067
Mychal!

07:25.612 --> 07:26.613
Mychal!

07:27.322 --> 07:28.365
Thank you. Yes.

07:29.449 --> 07:33.662
Giants fall and small men rise. [chuckles]

07:34.746 --> 07:36.206
And what of us?

07:36.290 --> 07:38.542
There's a price to pay for what we did.

07:39.543 --> 07:41.712
Oh, I settled my debt, son.

07:43.130 --> 07:47.634
What I know has a currency
worth more than gold.

07:47.718 --> 07:50.262
-[chanting continues]
-Thank you. Thank you. [chuckles]

08:04.818 --> 08:06.820
[civilians cheering]

08:13.785 --> 08:15.037
-Ahinoam.
-[sighs]

08:16.330 --> 08:17.456
[kisses]

08:17.956 --> 08:19.082
[sighs]

08:20.083 --> 08:22.169
-Mother. [chuckles, groans]
-[Ahinoam chuckles]

08:22.252 --> 08:24.379
-Oh! You're bleeding.
-[Jonathan] I'm fine.

08:24.463 --> 08:26.423
My sisters have more blood on them
than I do.

08:26.506 --> 08:27.507
[exhales sharply]

08:28.383 --> 08:29.968
[chuckles]

08:32.304 --> 08:35.140
Come. [chuckles, sighs]

08:44.399 --> 08:45.692
Eshbaal.

08:47.277 --> 08:48.278
Esh.

08:51.657 --> 08:53.909
[chuckles]

08:53.992 --> 08:55.744
[Eshbaal sighs] Mirab.

08:55.827 --> 08:57.204
[stammers] How are you here?

08:58.664 --> 09:00.040
A story for another time.

09:00.123 --> 09:03.460
-Esh! You're back.
-[Eshbaal] Mychal. Oh.

09:03.961 --> 09:06.838
-[Mirab] Your hair, it's…
-Jonathan.

09:06.922 --> 09:08.799
-…different. Uh…
-Better? [chuckles]

09:09.299 --> 09:10.634
[Mirab] No. [chuckles]

09:10.717 --> 09:12.886
-Different. Different. [chuckles]
-[Mychal chuckles]

09:12.970 --> 09:13.971
Father.

09:20.227 --> 09:21.895
May the king live forever.

09:24.147 --> 09:25.732
I know there is much to explain.

09:28.819 --> 09:31.405
Come here, son. Come here.

09:33.657 --> 09:36.952
[sighs] Explanations will come later.

09:37.035 --> 09:39.288
My family is whole again!

09:40.163 --> 09:43.166
-Explanations will come later. [chuckles]
-[Saul exclaims]

09:43.250 --> 09:46.086
[Mychal] I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

09:46.586 --> 09:48.297
[Mirab] It's fine. We're fine.

09:51.300 --> 09:52.884
-[giggles]
-Excuse me, Father.

09:56.722 --> 09:57.723
What is it?

09:59.558 --> 10:01.727
It's David's brother, Nathaneel.

10:03.312 --> 10:04.313
Excuse me.

10:05.689 --> 10:06.690
My king.

10:07.441 --> 10:09.276
I need to go and find David.

10:09.359 --> 10:11.320
You need to go and have a wash.

10:11.403 --> 10:12.946
[gasps] You might be right.

10:13.030 --> 10:14.156
-[chuckles]
-Right.

10:16.033 --> 10:18.910
David? Who is David?

10:18.994 --> 10:21.580
I have so much to tell you. So much.

10:21.663 --> 10:24.541
-[sentimental music playing]
-All right. Remember that shepherd that…

10:31.506 --> 10:33.759
[sighs] Alive.

10:35.552 --> 10:37.387
Alive. [inhales sharply]

10:37.471 --> 10:39.473
[townspeople chattering]

10:48.106 --> 10:49.524
[David] Looking for someone?

10:50.734 --> 10:52.402
[chuckles]

10:52.486 --> 10:55.822
Look at you. [chuckles] David.

11:00.035 --> 11:01.787
But how are you healing?

11:01.870 --> 11:04.247
I-I still have the image
of that spear hitting you.

11:05.123 --> 11:08.627
Honestly, I can't remember
ever feeling better. [chuckles]

11:09.878 --> 11:11.171
I know what you mean.

11:12.464 --> 11:17.260
I-I feel like the world has shifted,

11:17.344 --> 11:20.263
and we're here in the middle of it.

11:22.349 --> 11:24.184
My father is better.

11:24.810 --> 11:29.356
I think God has brought my family
back together again.

11:34.027 --> 11:35.153
And there's you.

11:36.488 --> 11:39.658
Us. Us, Mychal.

11:40.492 --> 11:43.995
Yes. Us.

11:45.664 --> 11:46.665
[Jonathan] David.

11:48.125 --> 11:50.502
Jonathan, what is it?

11:54.131 --> 11:55.132
Are you all right?

11:56.174 --> 11:57.467
Afraid I have bitter news.

11:58.885 --> 12:00.637
It's your brother, Nathaneel.

12:03.515 --> 12:05.517
[intriguing music playing]

12:21.366 --> 12:26.163
You don't have to speak, Great One,
but at least eat.

12:27.247 --> 12:29.458
I am nourished by the Lord God.

12:31.460 --> 12:33.128
Samuel, you have betrayed the king.

12:33.712 --> 12:35.881
An act, as you know,
is punishable by death.

12:35.964 --> 12:38.216
But Saul is feeling generous
after our victory,

12:38.300 --> 12:42.137
and so I've… [inhales sharply]
…I've come here with this offer.

12:44.681 --> 12:46.224
The Day of Atonement is coming.

12:46.850 --> 12:50.812
You will be there, as always,
beside Saul at the Tabernacle,

12:51.563 --> 12:52.981
and you will anoint him again

12:54.357 --> 12:55.734
in front of all the priests…

12:57.736 --> 12:58.945
and all of Israel.

12:59.029 --> 13:01.781
Abner, son of Endor…

13:04.534 --> 13:07.245
you were born into darkness. Were you not?

13:07.329 --> 13:09.039
[ominous music playing]

13:10.499 --> 13:12.584
I have renounced that place.

13:12.667 --> 13:16.254
I would have thought watching
your mother consumed by darkness

13:16.338 --> 13:19.925
would be warning enough
for the house you serve.

13:21.301 --> 13:22.427
I did warn them.

13:23.094 --> 13:26.973
What we allow, we become.

13:28.975 --> 13:30.143
Warn them again,

13:31.686 --> 13:38.193
or the darkness that has consumed Saul
will consume you as well.

13:40.862 --> 13:42.948
[insects chirping]

13:46.326 --> 13:48.828
[Jonathan breathing heavily]

My prince.

14:34.249 --> 14:37.377
Kezia. [groaning]

14:38.670 --> 14:41.298
-I will wake the queen right away.
-[sighs] No.

14:42.674 --> 14:44.009
Do not tell my family.

14:44.092 --> 14:45.802
My father is finally stable.

14:46.428 --> 14:48.138
I will not be the one to trouble him.

14:48.847 --> 14:49.973
Let me see.

14:50.056 --> 14:52.475
[groaning]

14:54.311 --> 14:55.562
I know of a healer.

14:56.104 --> 14:57.689
He's in the hills of Gibeah.

15:00.025 --> 15:02.944
I was often injured
before I served your family.

15:03.028 --> 15:05.572
He saved me from death more than once.

15:09.117 --> 15:10.118
Take me there.

15:23.256 --> 15:25.550
[gentle music playing]

15:34.726 --> 15:36.728
[David singing in Hebrew]

17:12.949 --> 17:15.160
-[dramatic music playing]
-[gulls squawking]

17:24.502 --> 17:28.631
My king.
Dagonor, son of Ashdod, has arrived.

17:37.557 --> 17:38.558
[whistles]

17:39.184 --> 17:40.185
Dagonor.

17:41.478 --> 17:44.105
Be thankful
you still have a throne to sit on.

17:47.984 --> 17:51.696
Throwing away the lives
of so many men has consequences.

17:52.238 --> 17:55.325
We all grieve the loss of your father.
He was a good king.

17:55.408 --> 17:56.409
Was he?

17:57.702 --> 17:59.913
We have more important losses to grieve.

18:00.872 --> 18:05.585
-[Achish] We should have defeated them.
-[chuckles] Your plan was flawed, Achish.

18:07.086 --> 18:08.463
I had giants.

18:08.546 --> 18:14.219
Mm-hmm, that you hid behind
and it cost us everything.

18:15.470 --> 18:17.055
Have you come here looking for a fight?

18:18.765 --> 18:23.436
I've come, uh… to make a point.

18:23.520 --> 18:24.896
Azor.

18:32.403 --> 18:33.488
Then you should make it.

18:36.115 --> 18:38.743
[grunting]

18:46.793 --> 18:48.127
[chuckles]

18:48.211 --> 18:50.296
[grunting, groaning]

19:03.518 --> 19:05.478
[Dagonor] You had the right idea.

19:06.563 --> 19:08.273
You just used the wrong weapon.

19:15.697 --> 19:16.865
Look at the blade.

19:28.042 --> 19:29.043
Not a mark.

19:29.878 --> 19:33.965
The key to defeating the Hebrews was never
the size or strength of your giant.

19:34.048 --> 19:36.342
It was the sword in his hand.

19:37.594 --> 19:39.804
We are no longer in the age of bronze.

19:40.638 --> 19:42.974
Victory now hinges on the forging of iron.

19:43.683 --> 19:45.643
When you created that sword for Goliath,

19:47.228 --> 19:49.147
you didn't fully understand
what you had made.

19:49.981 --> 19:52.775
Imagine, a Philistine army

19:52.859 --> 19:57.488
with every man
wielding a weapon like this.

19:58.197 --> 19:59.866
None could stand against us.

20:01.200 --> 20:02.410
That is my point.

20:16.382 --> 20:17.550
[groans]

20:18.760 --> 20:20.178
[panting]

20:20.261 --> 20:21.763
You're finally awake.

20:24.474 --> 20:26.184
Let's look at that ugly thing.

20:26.809 --> 20:28.603
-[sighs]
-[grunting]

20:29.604 --> 20:32.899
Worse than last night. Frankincense.

20:34.943 --> 20:36.569
May I… May I ask your names?

20:37.236 --> 20:38.863
I'm Hiram.

20:38.947 --> 20:41.616
That's Sara, my granddaughter
and my assistant.

20:42.492 --> 20:45.870
She used to follow me around all day
when she was a girl,

20:45.954 --> 20:48.539
asking questions about the body.

20:48.623 --> 20:51.793
Why does this do this and that do that?

20:52.710 --> 20:54.003
Very annoying.

20:54.587 --> 20:56.381
We let this sit and wait.

20:57.048 --> 20:58.549
Clean the wound and bandages.

21:00.051 --> 21:01.386
Don't worry. She's very good.

21:04.931 --> 21:06.724
Would you mind if I took a closer look?

21:06.808 --> 21:08.977
I'm worried my grandfather
might have missed something.

21:09.936 --> 21:11.187
If you think it's best.

21:11.896 --> 21:12.897
I do.

21:14.023 --> 21:15.233
[Jonathan] Where is Kezia?

21:15.900 --> 21:17.151
She returned to the palace.

21:24.909 --> 21:26.035
What is your opinion?

21:28.413 --> 21:29.789
[sighs]

21:32.208 --> 21:34.961
I believe a piece of the arrowhead
is still lodged inside you.

21:36.170 --> 21:37.171
This will hurt.

21:37.839 --> 21:39.549
[groaning]

21:41.134 --> 21:43.886
If it stays inside you,
the poison will spread and…

21:45.888 --> 21:47.098
you will die.

21:49.392 --> 21:50.435
How soon?

21:52.562 --> 21:53.563
Soon.

21:55.690 --> 21:57.108
So what do you feel should be done?

22:06.159 --> 22:10.079
This is a tool
I've been experimenting with.

22:10.163 --> 22:12.165
[stammers] You want to
stick that inside me?

22:12.248 --> 22:13.875
It's not as bad as it looks.

22:13.958 --> 22:17.211
Th-The prongs will grip the arrow,
and then I pull it out.

22:17.295 --> 22:19.005
Has it worked before?

22:20.423 --> 22:24.385
Well, I've never tried it
on a human before.

22:26.137 --> 22:29.474
[breathing sharply]

22:30.058 --> 22:33.436
Jonathan, you have no reason to trust me,

22:33.519 --> 22:35.897
but I have spent years
perfecting this tool

22:37.482 --> 22:40.068
after my brother died
of an arrow wound like this.

22:41.527 --> 22:42.528
It's your life.

22:43.321 --> 22:45.406
I believe I can save it if you let me try.

22:48.826 --> 22:50.119
Do it.

22:50.995 --> 22:52.080
All right.

22:59.879 --> 23:01.756
[screams]

23:03.091 --> 23:04.383
No!

23:10.723 --> 23:13.392
[sobbing]

23:13.476 --> 23:15.937
[sentimental music playing]

23:19.857 --> 23:22.026
[sniffling]

23:28.616 --> 23:29.992
[Eliab sighs]

23:30.993 --> 23:32.995
[breathing heavily]

23:39.544 --> 23:40.586
All the men…

23:42.797 --> 23:43.798
good men…

23:45.883 --> 23:47.593
dead before their time.

23:50.429 --> 23:54.851
Noble causes and service to God,
and yet here I am, and they are not.

23:54.934 --> 23:56.352
And I… [sighs]

23:59.063 --> 24:05.278
…I am left haunted to tell their families
that their beloved will never return.

24:11.409 --> 24:14.620
Of all the wounds I bear
from all the battles I have fought,

24:14.704 --> 24:16.455
none scar me so much as this.

24:20.084 --> 24:23.004
And this time… [sighs]

24:24.338 --> 24:28.676
…it is our family who grieves.
[breathes deeply]

24:34.056 --> 24:35.266
[sniffles]

24:35.349 --> 24:37.185
His last words were for you, David.

24:40.229 --> 24:41.564
He was proud of you.

24:46.110 --> 24:47.111
As am I.

24:53.409 --> 24:54.493
[David] Eliab…

24:54.577 --> 24:55.661
[breathes shakily]

24:56.537 --> 24:58.497
-…there are things I must tell you.
-[horse whinnies]

24:58.581 --> 25:00.208
[hoofbeats]

25:09.508 --> 25:10.801
[sighs]

25:17.308 --> 25:19.018
[Jesse] What is this?

25:22.688 --> 25:27.485
Joab, what business do you have with us?
We are in mourning.

25:28.027 --> 25:32.323
I'm sorry, Jesse, but we've come
to escort David back to the palace.

25:33.449 --> 25:37.453
[Jesse] Escort? I-I don't understand.

25:38.496 --> 25:39.664
You haven't told them?

25:39.747 --> 25:41.290
Told us what?

25:44.877 --> 25:48.214
King Saul has made your son
a royal commander of a thousand men,

25:48.297 --> 25:49.298
including me.

25:50.800 --> 25:51.926
You as well, Eliab.

25:54.345 --> 25:55.805
-Eliab.
-No.

25:57.974 --> 26:01.477
Eliab. Eliab, listen. Stop! Stop!

26:01.560 --> 26:03.646
Eliab, your commander is giving an order.

26:03.729 --> 26:05.314
Let him make me stop.

26:05.398 --> 26:07.275
-[Joab] Eliab!
-Joab, it's all right.

26:08.025 --> 26:10.319
Eliab, wait. Listen to me.

26:11.612 --> 26:14.615
Eliab. Eliab, let me talk to you.

26:14.699 --> 26:15.700
[grunts]

26:16.492 --> 26:20.371
As you rise, we fall.
Right, little brother?

26:20.913 --> 26:22.123
I did not choose this.

26:22.206 --> 26:24.667
-And yet, you embrace it.
-I am doing what is asked of me.

26:24.750 --> 26:27.336
I have struggled for years
to free our family

26:27.420 --> 26:29.297
from the burden
that you have brought on us.

26:29.964 --> 26:30.965
I know.

26:32.216 --> 26:33.843
So let me do my part.

26:35.428 --> 26:37.430
Why can you not accept that?

26:37.513 --> 26:42.143
"Why?" You want to know why?

26:44.228 --> 26:47.315
-[grunts]
-[Joab] Eliab.

26:47.398 --> 26:48.649
That is why.

26:48.733 --> 26:50.735
[grunts, spits]

26:53.195 --> 26:54.947
[grunting]

26:55.031 --> 26:56.282
Your leader.

26:58.034 --> 26:59.994
-Get up.
-[David groans]

27:00.077 --> 27:02.830
Look at him. Our great commander.

27:04.081 --> 27:06.625
-I'm just trying-- [grunts]
-Eliab.

27:07.626 --> 27:11.714
[Eliab chuckles] You want
to be a leader? Stand up and fight me.

27:12.798 --> 27:16.135
What are you going to do
without your sling, giant slayer?

27:16.218 --> 27:19.221
-[groaning]
-[David chuckles]

27:21.474 --> 27:23.559
Eliab. I'm-I'm sorry. I just wanted to--

27:24.143 --> 27:26.479
[grunting]

27:26.562 --> 27:27.605
[coughs]

27:28.481 --> 27:31.317
-David, stay down.
-[grunting, groaning]

27:47.750 --> 27:49.043
Joab, stop him.

27:49.126 --> 27:51.379
Come on. Command me now, little brother.

27:51.462 --> 27:53.089
Command me now.

27:54.382 --> 27:55.383
[Jesse] Eliab!

27:59.345 --> 28:01.263
[David coughing]

28:01.347 --> 28:02.431
[Eliab] You are no warrior.

28:03.474 --> 28:05.726
You are just a boy who had one lucky shot.

28:06.894 --> 28:08.437
We buried our brother today,

28:09.480 --> 28:12.483
and with you in command
we will bury thousands more.

28:12.566 --> 28:15.820
So, no, I will not follow you.

28:15.903 --> 28:19.573
Eliab. That is enough.

28:20.616 --> 28:21.784
Leave him.

28:23.202 --> 28:24.203
Go!

28:54.942 --> 28:57.736
[speaking Hebrew]

29:10.499 --> 29:11.584
[kisses]

29:11.667 --> 29:13.669
[breathes heavily]

29:18.215 --> 29:21.010
Go ahead. Do what you need to do.

29:26.640 --> 29:28.642
-[groans]
-Ready?

29:29.268 --> 29:30.728
Hmm. [groaning]

29:30.811 --> 29:32.563
[panting]

29:33.981 --> 29:38.235
Breathe. Good. Good. Tell me about Naomi.

29:40.070 --> 29:41.071
What?

29:41.155 --> 29:44.074
-You kept saying her name in your sleep.
-[panting]

29:44.158 --> 29:45.159
Jonathan.

29:46.577 --> 29:47.912
Tell me about her.

29:49.038 --> 29:51.123
[grunts] She had my heart.

29:53.459 --> 29:56.837
I was only 20. [pants]

29:56.921 --> 30:01.008
Victorious in my first battle at Michmash.

30:03.469 --> 30:08.224
But while I was gone,
a sickness ravaged her entire family.

30:11.143 --> 30:13.896
When I returned home,
I found they'd already buried her.

30:19.109 --> 30:21.862
I've always carried the guilt
that I wasn't there with her.

30:25.366 --> 30:26.367
I'm sorry.

30:28.077 --> 30:29.161
I must go again.

30:29.245 --> 30:31.247
[panting]

30:33.123 --> 30:35.125
[groaning]

30:35.209 --> 30:36.710
[Sara] Oh, I feel something.

30:36.794 --> 30:39.296
[wincing, groaning]

30:39.380 --> 30:41.715
[screaming]

30:44.343 --> 30:47.096
[breathing sharply]

30:51.725 --> 30:53.727
[insects chirping]

30:57.314 --> 30:58.941
[door opens]

31:05.406 --> 31:08.409
Yaldati, my child.

31:15.791 --> 31:17.501
I worry for you, Ahinoam.

31:19.211 --> 31:20.588
Why?

31:20.671 --> 31:22.881
I am not the one bound and alone.

31:24.049 --> 31:25.050
Are you not?

31:27.928 --> 31:29.680
I didn't come here to argue.

31:30.306 --> 31:31.557
Then why are you here?

31:36.687 --> 31:39.815
[grunts, chuckles]

31:42.860 --> 31:46.947
Samuel… Avi…

31:48.407 --> 31:49.408
[sighs]

31:50.326 --> 31:53.162
Saul has redeemed himself,
a great victory.

31:54.830 --> 31:56.290
Amends have been made.

31:59.043 --> 32:00.419
Can God not see that?

32:01.837 --> 32:02.838
He sees all…

32:05.174 --> 32:09.094
to the very core of who we are.

32:10.387 --> 32:12.806
Just because there is
a great victory without,

32:12.890 --> 32:15.893
does not mean there is one within.

32:17.603 --> 32:19.229
Are you saying Saul hasn't changed?

32:19.813 --> 32:24.568
I am not saying anything at all.
That is not my function.

32:30.949 --> 32:32.534
When I was young…

32:34.620 --> 32:37.498
a terrible storm hit our village.

32:38.165 --> 32:40.042
[sentimental music playing]

32:40.125 --> 32:42.711
My sweet sister…

32:45.422 --> 32:47.341
we found her by the riverbank…

32:51.053 --> 32:52.763
washed up by the flood.

32:52.846 --> 32:54.264
No sign of life.

32:56.266 --> 33:00.562
And so… I prayed.

33:02.481 --> 33:06.110
I… I prayed.

33:08.696 --> 33:10.781
[sobs]

33:10.864 --> 33:11.865
And then, a miracle.

33:11.949 --> 33:16.829
She gasped and came back from the dead.

33:19.915 --> 33:24.294
If God… can do that,

33:25.254 --> 33:31.593
take someone…
[sniffles] …and then give them back,

33:32.886 --> 33:35.013
surely he can undo this.

33:39.143 --> 33:40.519
He can…

33:45.274 --> 33:46.817
but he has not.

33:56.577 --> 33:58.871
[sniffling]

34:07.421 --> 34:11.216
Eshbaal. Oh. Uh, I'll come back later.

34:11.300 --> 34:12.468
No. What?

34:14.261 --> 34:15.846
You want to play hounds and jackals?

34:20.642 --> 34:22.770
Sure. Why not?

34:26.398 --> 34:27.733
Do you want wine?

34:27.816 --> 34:30.611
No. No, it clouds the senses.

34:33.739 --> 34:34.907
[chuckles]

34:37.117 --> 34:40.954
Esh… what happened to you?

34:42.873 --> 34:46.418
I will tell you all, Mirab.

34:47.336 --> 34:52.007
I just need time. No.

34:52.090 --> 34:57.054
At least tell me this,
will my rebellious brother ever return?

34:57.846 --> 34:59.431
Rebellion takes many forms.

34:59.515 --> 35:03.685
[huffs, groans] Fun brother then?
It's been dreadfully dull without you.

35:06.522 --> 35:08.148
I'm still here, Mirab.

35:08.982 --> 35:12.027
[sighs]

35:12.110 --> 35:14.696
Now, go. It's your move.

35:16.907 --> 35:21.161
So, I hear Father
ripped a wedding from you.

35:21.703 --> 35:25.123
[chuckles] That's right.

35:25.207 --> 35:28.710
Jordan from Judah? Really?

35:28.794 --> 35:29.837
He's not so bad.

35:29.920 --> 35:31.421
No? Was Mirab in love?

35:31.505 --> 35:34.508
[chuckles] No, I was not in love.

35:35.133 --> 35:36.260
I didn't know him.

35:40.097 --> 35:41.348
But I did like him.

35:44.393 --> 35:47.020
And you know, it was nice for a moment

35:47.688 --> 35:52.192
to imagine a-a life with a decent man.

35:53.235 --> 35:55.612
Perhaps be happy.

35:56.405 --> 35:59.074
Happy? You?

36:00.951 --> 36:02.077
Right. [chuckles]

36:02.160 --> 36:03.662
I should've known better.

36:04.288 --> 36:05.914
None of it was meant for me.

36:05.998 --> 36:07.374
It was for Mychal.

36:07.457 --> 36:08.917
Perhaps for good reason.

36:09.793 --> 36:12.296
She is wonderful,

36:12.379 --> 36:15.340
and I always manage to ruin everything.
[chuckles]

36:16.383 --> 36:17.718
It's what I'm known for.

36:19.469 --> 36:22.389
Why do you do that?
Why do you put yourself down?

36:25.517 --> 36:27.853
Maybe Jonathan and Mychal
get everything they want

36:27.936 --> 36:29.938
because they believe they deserve it?

36:30.022 --> 36:34.359
While you and I have remained shackled by
our belief that we are forever unworthy.

36:36.028 --> 36:38.030
We are worthy, Mirab.

36:38.113 --> 36:39.656
We always have been.

36:39.740 --> 36:44.536
And if you truly believed that,
what would you ask for?

36:48.498 --> 36:50.208
[door opening]

36:51.627 --> 36:52.920
[Doeg whispers] Samuel.

36:55.005 --> 36:58.258
[normal] How I have waited
for this moment.

36:59.384 --> 37:00.385
Who are you?

37:01.553 --> 37:02.888
Who am I?

37:02.971 --> 37:04.056
[chuckles]

37:04.139 --> 37:08.101
I am Doeg, an Edomite.

37:09.770 --> 37:12.439
But you are no stranger to me.

37:13.023 --> 37:16.443
I've been tasked to discover
the name of the anointed one.

37:18.236 --> 37:23.492
Even if it takes your life,
as it did your apprentice.

37:23.575 --> 37:24.826
[tense music playing]

37:24.910 --> 37:28.163
What was his name, your apprentice?

37:29.247 --> 37:32.125
I only remember his screams.

37:34.127 --> 37:36.713
Silas was his name.

37:36.797 --> 37:38.215
Silas.

37:39.174 --> 37:44.096
Tell me, is it true
you've never cut your hair?

37:44.179 --> 37:48.684
That it is somehow sacred to your God?

37:50.185 --> 37:52.270
Perhaps we should start there.

37:54.272 --> 37:55.524
There is another name.

37:57.359 --> 37:58.485
Hmm?

37:58.568 --> 38:02.280
Another name you dream of often.

38:04.616 --> 38:05.617
Timna.

38:10.414 --> 38:11.415
What?

38:12.332 --> 38:13.417
What did you say?

38:14.334 --> 38:17.754
Timna. Your mother's name.

38:18.463 --> 38:19.464
You see,

38:20.340 --> 38:23.135
you are not so unknown to me

38:23.218 --> 38:26.388
and to God as you think.

38:27.514 --> 38:31.143
When your mother, Timna,

38:32.269 --> 38:34.688
died by your father's hands,

38:36.440 --> 38:39.109
you cowered. Did you not?

38:39.693 --> 38:41.695
Beneath the stairs.

38:41.778 --> 38:42.779
[Doeg gasps]

38:45.240 --> 38:47.200
-How would you know that?
-Uh-huh.

38:48.160 --> 38:52.164
And afterward,
you felt something else, didn't you?

38:52.247 --> 38:56.460
You felt curiosity that still burns.

38:56.543 --> 38:58.128
[echoing] It burns within you.

38:58.920 --> 39:04.009
And thus began your obsession with death.

39:04.092 --> 39:05.886
[dramatic music playing]

39:05.969 --> 39:09.806
God, he could've lifted you
from that dark place,

39:09.890 --> 39:11.224
but you renounced him,

39:11.308 --> 39:14.352
and you turned to even deeper shadows.

39:14.436 --> 39:17.230
And so, Doeg,

39:18.565 --> 39:20.317
son of Timna,

39:21.651 --> 39:23.403
Edomite…

39:26.656 --> 39:28.408
allow me to help you.

39:29.117 --> 39:31.328
[dramatic music continues]

39:35.457 --> 39:37.751
[thunderclap]

39:41.004 --> 39:42.881
[Doeg] What is this place?

39:43.465 --> 39:46.885
[Samuel] You are trapped in the death
you brought to so many others…

39:51.264 --> 39:53.892
and there you shall remain.

39:56.603 --> 39:57.896
[music ends]

39:57.979 --> 40:00.190
God has given us the victory

40:01.024 --> 40:04.903
and blessed us with a new son
and champion.

40:05.612 --> 40:09.074
A simple shepherd, just as I was.

40:11.159 --> 40:12.160
Yes.

40:13.078 --> 40:14.621
[chuckles]

40:14.704 --> 40:16.873
A great victory.

40:18.166 --> 40:22.879
But do you really think
David is capable of commanding an army?

40:23.547 --> 40:26.466
It is wise to use David
to unite our people.

40:27.551 --> 40:30.011
They love him. He inspires them.

40:30.095 --> 40:32.806
-He inspires me.
-[Ahinoam] You inspire them.

40:37.769 --> 40:38.770
You.

40:42.065 --> 40:45.777
Perhaps it is wise to wait.

40:45.861 --> 40:46.862
Wait?

40:47.737 --> 40:49.322
For the wedding announcement.

40:49.906 --> 40:53.201
Give David more time
to better prove himself.

40:53.285 --> 40:55.829
Prove himself? [scoffs]

40:55.912 --> 40:58.999
More so than killing a giant?

41:00.667 --> 41:03.962
You were ready to marry Mychal off
to one of Adriel's boys

41:04.045 --> 41:06.047
without proving themselves.

41:07.924 --> 41:12.220
Adriel is a powerful leader
and a necessary alliance.

41:13.555 --> 41:18.602
David is the bastard child of a commoner.

41:18.685 --> 41:23.982
Ahinoam, I have made my decision.
Why must you challenge me?

41:29.279 --> 41:33.074
We don't need any more wine. Leave us.

41:40.123 --> 41:42.542
[chuckling]

41:53.011 --> 41:54.930
If you don't believe in David,

41:56.473 --> 41:57.682
you do not believe in me.

41:57.766 --> 41:59.517
[Ahinoam] Of course I believe in you.

42:02.354 --> 42:06.066
Come. Sit with me.

42:09.152 --> 42:12.155
My king.
There's something you need to see.

42:12.822 --> 42:14.032
[Saul] What is it, Abner?

42:14.950 --> 42:16.201
Please come.

42:19.871 --> 42:21.790
-[Abner] He is not responding to anyone.
-[gasping]

42:22.791 --> 42:24.542
I fear he is trapped as you were.

42:27.921 --> 42:28.964
And Samuel?

42:30.215 --> 42:31.216
Gone.

42:32.175 --> 42:35.428
What fool ordered Doeg
to threaten the prophet?

42:35.512 --> 42:37.806
And why was I not made aware of this?

42:40.976 --> 42:43.645
I was hoping
the threat wouldn't be necessary.

42:44.479 --> 42:46.273
Better to keep your hands clean of it.

42:47.607 --> 42:49.693
Find Samuel at once.

42:52.821 --> 42:53.989
[Doeg mutters]

43:03.707 --> 43:06.626
[Abinadab] David, don't worry.

43:07.752 --> 43:10.380
I'm sure his hands hurt
more than your face.

43:13.008 --> 43:15.593
Eliab, is there something
you want to say to your brother?

43:16.469 --> 43:17.595
That's Jonathan's sword.

43:18.138 --> 43:20.598
Yes, he gave it to me.

43:27.731 --> 43:28.815
Avva.

43:31.901 --> 43:37.198
[sighs] Take care of those sheep for me,
and Saba too.

43:37.282 --> 43:38.283
Promise.

43:49.836 --> 43:51.338
When will you return?

43:53.048 --> 43:55.091
I've been claimed into the king's family.

43:56.176 --> 43:58.428
So, not for a while.

43:59.429 --> 44:01.222
I'm going to marry Princess Mychal.

44:02.098 --> 44:06.436
I think that through our union,
I will find my way to the throne in peace.

44:07.270 --> 44:08.855
I hope you are right.

44:10.023 --> 44:14.069
David, I never believed
Israel should have a king…

44:14.152 --> 44:17.822
-[emotional music playing]
-…but if it is indeed God's will,

44:18.865 --> 44:20.367
I am glad it will be you.

44:23.703 --> 44:27.248
Promise me you will stay safe.

44:28.917 --> 44:29.918
The lord is with me.

44:30.794 --> 44:31.795
The lord is with you.

44:38.551 --> 44:39.677
[Joab] Ready, Commander?

44:40.678 --> 44:41.679
Here.

44:43.306 --> 44:45.725
Thank you. I'm still getting used to that.

44:45.809 --> 44:47.060
[chuckles]

44:48.686 --> 44:49.771
Goodbye, Father.

44:54.984 --> 44:57.237
"Commander David," sounds good.

44:59.114 --> 45:01.658
David, wow. That is your horse?

45:02.325 --> 45:03.493
Mm-hmm.

45:03.576 --> 45:06.329
I have a feeling your new command
is gonna bring me the attention

45:06.413 --> 45:07.414
of many fine ladies.

45:08.331 --> 45:10.125
-You want to ride back?
-Ah, if you're offering.

45:10.208 --> 45:12.961
No. We would rather walk.

45:18.591 --> 45:19.592
Let's go.

45:26.307 --> 45:27.308
Go.

45:33.481 --> 45:34.607
You want to walk?

45:35.442 --> 45:36.818
Yes, I want to walk.

45:45.118 --> 45:47.620
[pants, breathing heavily]

45:53.042 --> 45:54.294
[grunts]

46:06.306 --> 46:08.683
[screams]

46:16.149 --> 46:17.609
[slurps]

46:18.443 --> 46:19.611
[sighs]

46:26.743 --> 46:29.454
Mirab, an unexpected surprise.

46:31.247 --> 46:32.582
I couldn't sleep.

46:32.665 --> 46:34.501
You are my daughter indeed.

46:35.543 --> 46:36.753
Come. Sit.

46:44.928 --> 46:45.929
You want wine?

46:47.597 --> 46:49.682
No, it clouds the senses.

46:49.766 --> 46:51.643
Yes, isn't that the point?

46:54.229 --> 46:55.396
What is bothering you?

46:56.940 --> 46:58.316
Nightmares of the battle?

46:59.567 --> 47:00.568
No.

47:05.198 --> 47:09.536
When you tore a life away from me,

47:09.619 --> 47:14.541
a marriage, it was truly painful.

47:14.624 --> 47:16.626
[tender music playing]

47:18.086 --> 47:20.004
I thought you saw how happy I was.

47:24.342 --> 47:28.930
My sweet. You know, I was not myself.

47:30.431 --> 47:31.558
I know.

47:36.187 --> 47:38.898
And that is why
I have something to ask of you.

47:39.566 --> 47:45.530
There is a way in which
I could serve this kingdom and this house.

47:46.698 --> 47:48.449
Your house, my king.

47:58.793 --> 48:02.213
[Goliath echoing]
I defy the king of Israel.

48:02.297 --> 48:05.341
-I defy the god of Israel.
-[grunting]

48:05.425 --> 48:06.426
[gasps]

48:06.926 --> 48:09.429
[haunting music playing]

48:40.043 --> 48:44.881
[Abner] This sword. I fear it is cursed.
I do not want it near the king.

48:45.923 --> 48:50.637
You take it to Nob, you hide it with
the other sacred objects. Yes?

48:51.346 --> 48:52.722
Yes, Commander.

48:52.805 --> 48:53.806
You tell no one.

48:56.017 --> 48:57.018
Go.

48:57.602 --> 49:00.104
[dramatic music playing]

49:23.419 --> 49:25.088
-Hello, Father.
-Hello, my son.

49:25.922 --> 49:26.923
What is this?

49:27.507 --> 49:29.967
This is something
which is not supposed to be seen.

49:49.821 --> 49:51.906
[breathing deeply]

49:57.161 --> 49:59.163
-[Sara] Morning.
-[sighs]

49:59.914 --> 50:01.666
[Sara] You look so much better.

50:01.749 --> 50:02.750
[chuckles]

50:03.876 --> 50:05.503
[Eshbaal] How are you feeling, brother?

50:08.214 --> 50:09.257
What are you doing here?

50:09.966 --> 50:11.676
-Kezia was concerned.
-[groans, exhales sharply]

50:11.759 --> 50:14.762
Don't worry, I will keep your secret.

50:14.846 --> 50:19.642
Eshbaal sat by your side all night
waiting for your fever to break.

50:20.268 --> 50:22.603
Uh, perhaps he was just
waiting for me to die.

50:23.521 --> 50:25.898
See, I told you. He'll never trust me.

50:25.982 --> 50:26.983
[chuckles]

50:28.109 --> 50:31.404
Hmm, did my brother charm you all night?
He's good at that.

50:31.487 --> 50:35.867
He only spoke of you.
How much you've done for your family.

50:35.950 --> 50:37.160
[Jonathan exhales sharply]

50:39.287 --> 50:41.164
I should be getting back to the palace.

50:41.247 --> 50:42.331
Slowly. [sighs]

50:42.415 --> 50:44.542
[Jonathan groans, exhales sharply]

50:44.625 --> 50:46.627
-I'm fine. Thank you.
-Okay, stay here.

50:56.763 --> 50:58.347
Thank you for saving my life.

51:00.016 --> 51:03.269
And, uh, for your company.

51:07.190 --> 51:12.028
Uh, it's, uh… it's clear
you're not fully recovered.

51:12.987 --> 51:16.532
Perhaps, Sara,
you should return with us to the palace

51:16.616 --> 51:18.451
as the prince's personal healer.

51:19.160 --> 51:20.620
I don't know if this--

51:20.703 --> 51:24.916
[stammers] I would appreciate
your care and expertise.

51:26.876 --> 51:30.546
I'm sorry, but this is my home.
I'm needed here.

51:32.799 --> 51:33.800
[Jonathan] Of course.

51:34.425 --> 51:35.885
I'll fetch you some supplies.

51:42.183 --> 51:47.104
Well, I had to try. I'm just happy
to see you look at a woman again.

51:48.189 --> 51:49.232
[groans]

51:59.325 --> 52:02.829
[crowd chattering, clamoring]

52:07.708 --> 52:10.169
[clamoring continues]

52:21.138 --> 52:22.139
[Joab] Stand back.

52:25.685 --> 52:27.937
Stand back. Stand back.

52:29.063 --> 52:30.064
Are you all right?

52:31.649 --> 52:33.943
My father's gathered everyone
in the throne room.

52:34.527 --> 52:38.281
There's a special announcement.
[chuckles] Come.

53:07.435 --> 53:12.648
My king, I thank you for allowing me
to return home and grieve my brother.

53:13.232 --> 53:16.277
David, I'm glad to have you back.

53:17.111 --> 53:20.281
Are you ready now to commit to this house,

53:20.364 --> 53:22.617
to being a commander of men,

53:22.700 --> 53:26.287
to dedicating your very life
in service of your king?

53:32.460 --> 53:35.838
I know in my heart my place is here.

53:35.922 --> 53:38.424
[dramatic music playing]

53:41.093 --> 53:42.595
I accept your vow,

53:43.304 --> 53:44.764
and as a gift…

53:47.183 --> 53:50.394
I offer you my beautiful daughter
in marriage.

53:50.478 --> 53:51.479
[David chuckles]

53:52.355 --> 53:53.356
[Saul] Mirab.

53:54.023 --> 53:56.525
[music intensifies]
iful daughter
in marriage.
