- [mysterious music playing] - [metallic clank echoes]
[birds squawking]
[mystical music playing]
[waves lapping]
[bell clanging]
[bird squawking]
[horns playing fanfare]
[announcer] Make way for the king's carriage!
[horses whinnying]
Uh, maybe King Leopold might want to show the people he's merciful.
[Drew sighs]
Best-case scenario, you'll see your days out in a Highcliff cell.
I hear they're spacious, and the view's not bad. [grunts]
Don't be scared. You're the next queen, remember?
If anyone's safe from the Lions, it's you.
- [door opens] - [gasps]
Ah! Time to fit your royal bracelets.
The king is coming, and I need you looking presentable.
- A precaution, my lady. - [Gretchen grunts]
Never trust a Lion.
Or a Shark.
- [Vega chuckles] Ah. - [handcuffs clink]
Still choosing the hard way?
You chose this, not me.
Do as I say, and your friends might just get out of here unharmed.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Hector grunts]
[Drew panting]
[exhales]
And once we're on dry land?
[sighs] That's up to you.
[eerie music playing]
[birds squawking]
What are we waiting for? Drew needs our help.
Look around you. We're in the capital. A rescue attempt is far too dangerous.
- And leaving him to the Lions isn't? - Whitley!
Uh…
I'd listen to your father, Lady Whitley.
There's not much the old Bear doesn't know about strategy.
Thanks, but I have a friend to save.
Only a fool would dismiss the Staglords.
Two of the Wolf's fiercest allies.
- Manfred, are we glad to see you. - [Manfred chuckles]
- Mikkel… - [horse hooves approaching]
[dramatic music playing]
- Stay back! - [Whitley grunts]
[horses whinnying]
Leopold.
[Manfred] Mikkel! Where are you going?
[somber orchestral music playing]
[horse whinnies]
[King Leopold growls lowly]
[birds squawking]
Your Majesty. It is my honor.
You? Honor? Where are they?
[Vega chuckles]
[growls lowly] Fetch your bride, boy.
About that reward…
- Mm. I believe this will suffice. - [snaps finger]
[Vega grunts, sighs]
Uh… it'll do.
[King Leopold] Mm.
[Gretchen panting]
My darling Gretchen. Your ordeal is over.
- [Gretchen exhales] - Good luck.
You're welcome.
[clears throat] My apprentice too.
[handcuffs clinking]
[Vega chuckles]
I'm staying. I won't leave you.
Stay out of trouble.
Who's gonna look out for Gretchen if you end up in the cell next to mine?
Go, before they change their minds.
[Hector clears throat]
[Vankaskan chuckles]
So, this is the fabled Drew Ferran.
[scoffs] You're no Werelord.
Nothing more than a mongrel in Wolf's clothing.
Forgive me, Your Majesty,
but this prisoner is worth more than the others.
The return of my home, the Cluster Isles, is a fair price.
[chuckles] Tell me more about this fair price.
Are you stupid enough to think
that an act of piracy would erase your old betrayal?
You'll get your Cluster Isles
when you show lasting loyalty to the Crown.
[Vega grunts]
And you, on the morning of the royal wedding,
you will be executed.
[Gretchen crying]
There, there, dear.
[intriguing music playing]
[Vankaskan chuckles]
[Prince Lucas chuckles]
[Vega grunts angrily]
[sighs]
[trooper] Move out!
[dramatic music playing]
[King Leopold growls lowly]
[trooper] Halt the carriages!
[horse whinnies]
[grunts] What do you think you're doing? Keep moving!
The road is blocked, Your Majesty.
[growls angrily]
[Hector clears throat]
[trooper 2] Put your back into it. Come on. On three.
One, two, three.
- Come on! - [troopers grunting]
[sighs] This is Mikkel's doing.
I shouldn't have let him out of my sight.
Manfred, wait.
- [Whitley grunts] - Whitley! Come back here!
[sighs in exasperation]
[trooper 2] One, two, three. Come on!
[knocking]
- [Drew gasps] - [Mikkel] Shh.
[whispering] Be still. Be quiet.
[Mikkel grunting]
Quick, boys. Get it unhitched.
- Where are you going? - Don't you wanna know what's going on?
What if it's dangerous? I mean, you need my protection. Stay back.
Hm.
[gasps] No!
[whistles]
Ambush! Secure the prisoner! [grunts]
- [gasps] - Gretchen, get down!
- [trooper 1] Ambush! - [trooper 2] Run!
[trooper 3] Take cover!
[troopers grunting]
[cries out]
[trooper] Pull back!
[grunting]
[trooper] Oi!
Oi! Come back!
Whoa!
[Whitley grunting]
[Drew groans]
[Whitley panting]
[grunts]
[grunting] Drew! Hold on tight!
Whitley?
Just hold on!
[grunts]
[echoing breaths]
[grunts]
Drew!
[Drew cries out]
[carriage screeching]
What? Oh, Whitley.
Only you could rescue me and give me concussion.
- [Whitley chuckles] Yep. No time. - [Drew grunts]
[handcuffs open, clatter]
Thank you.
[exhales]
- What? - With me, boy. Move!
Go, Drew. Run!
[panting]
- [arrow whistles] - [gasps]
Get her!
[growls]
[Drew groans]
No! [grunts]
- Drew! - I have to go back. I'm not leaving her.
[Whitley grunts]
- [roars] - [Drew] Let her go!
I surrender. Call off your dogs.
You're the dog. Nothing more than a mongrel. I should have you whipped.
Stop! You won, Lucas.
It's over. Please.
Can't we just look forward to our wedding?
I didn't start this. He did.
[yelps, growls angrily]
Enough! Lock him up!
What about her? She did this.
Yes. I know just the place for her.
[gasps]
[sighs]
[cuffs clinking]
[suspenseful music playing]
How could you let Leopold do this to me?
You're lucky to escape the same sentence as Drew.
Sending me to the ladies' quarters is a death sentence.
Who knows. It might even do you some good.
[Whitley scoffs]
Your Grace.
- [suspenseful music playing] - [Whitley yelps]
- [gasps] - [Vanmorten laughs sinisterly]
- [door creaks] - [Drew grunts]
- [door slams shut] - [guard] Enjoy the view.
[tool pounding]
[gentle music playing]
[bird trilling softly]
What is this place?
[gasps]
[intense music playing]
- [grunting loudly] - [dress ripping]
[eerie music playing]
Mum…
I'm sorry.
[sobbing] I'm so sorry.
Are you hurt? Who did this?
It wasn't me, Dad. I'd never hurt her.
I'd never hurt anyone.
Please, believe me. I wish none of this had ever happened.
Hey, hey. It's okay, son. It's okay.
It's okay.
You believe me… don't you?
There, there.
You're okay.
[ominous music playing]
[Drew] No!
[monster snarls]
[screams, breathes heavily]
What?
[rat squeaking]
[both grunt]
Where did you come from?
Where's Lucas? Are you okay? He was pretty mad.
[sniffles] I'm fine.
It seems he has no interest in me beyond posing for the crowds.
- And my money, of course. - [chuckles] Yes.
He's in a good mood, actually. Yeah. He's out commissioning a wedding song.
- Well, that's romantic. - It's called "The Fall of the Wolf."
Or not.
No chance of you changing his mind about Drew, then.
Have you ever known me to give up that easily?
[rat squeaks]
[squeaking]
- [growls] - [rat squeaks fearfully]
Poor rat. Never stood a chance.
Duke Bergan. [grunts, moans]
Sit, lad. Rest yourself.
[sighs] All I do is sit or lie or scare away rat after rat.
[trooper snoring]
You won't see another night in here, on my honor.
No! Don't try to rescue me. Forget any promises you made.
It's not over.
With respect, it is.
- Drew, I-- - I can't let anyone else get hurt.
I won't. Not for me.
[sighs] You expect me to do nothing?
[exhales heavily] There is one thing.
My dad, Mack Ferran.
If you ever find him, tell him I didn't hurt Tilly.
When that day comes, he will know the truth.
[bird trilling]
[sighs]
If Lucas thinks I'm playing bridesmaid, he's got another thing coming.
[uneasy music playing]
[bird trilling]
[bird continues trilling]
[door creaking]
[gasps softly]
[broken china clattering]
Oh! Your Majesty.
I'm Whitley of Brackenholme. I'm honored to meet you.
- [droning] How enchanting. - Hm?
[eerie music playing]
Uh…
I've been sent here by King Leopold. Well, more like banished.
How enchanting.
[cup shatters]
It must be very distressing,
seeing what the king is planning for Drew, for your son.
Do you know what the king is planning?
Queen Amelie?
[eerie music playing]
What have they done to you?
[sawing, hammering]
[Prince Lucas] This is the portrait Father commissioned for my birthday.
[Gretchen] Mm.
These carvings are priceless, of course.
And that's the mighty Werefox.
Once we're married,
I'll have her moved next to the Lion so she can gaze at his impressive mane.
What's wrong? I thought this was what you wanted.
I'm sorry. I'm just thinking about tomorrow.
Don't you think it's a shame to spoil our wedding with an execution?
No. The sooner I rid your mind of that mongrel, the better.
Do you know what this is?
The key to his kennel.
I could have him put down now, if you'd like.
That is so sweet of you, but, um, I'm just being silly.
Um, I want people to be talking about my dress, not the Wolf.
Oh, he'll soon be forgotten.
And all you need to do
is sit and smile
for the rest of your life.
Um, is… is your portrait quite straight? 'Cause it looks a little off.
Is it?
- We can't have that. - [Gretchen chuckles]
[Prince Lucas] Mm.
[suspenseful music playing]
[chuckles innocently]
Come, my prince. Let's continue.
[Prince Lucas chuckles]
This is a bad idea. If I get caught in here, we're history.
- Do you want to save Drew or not? - [Hector grunts]
[bird trilling]
As I feared, it's enchanted.
Well, is there an antidote?
Look, if we can wake her, she can help us. She's Drew's mother and the queen.
She might be able to change Leopold's mind.
H… How enchanting.
She's our only hope to stop the execution.
[clears throat] No pressure, then.
What?
How did you get in here? It's not safe.
Leopold really ought to pay his guards more.
Why are you here? [grunts]
- [chain clinks] - Shh.
Take it. The guards change at midnight.
- That's your best chance. - No!
Do you have any idea what will happen to you if Lucas finds out I'm gone?
I can handle Lucas.
The Lions are merciless. They'll kill you all.
The only way I can keep you all safe is to do as they say.
[Gretchen grunts] Take it.
[Drew grunts]
[cries]
Get some sleep, Princess. Big day tomorrow.
What is that?
[Duke Bergan] The Lion's new toy.
[Manfred grumbles]
What of Mikkel?
He confessed. They've got him in a cell on his own.
- [Duke Bergan sighs] - At least he tried. What have we done?
With more men and more time, we--
We have neither, Bergan.
[growls]
Mm.
- You! - [Vega] Hm?
This is all your fault!
Oh, look, the noble Bear.
You made a promise to protect the Wolf. We all did.
And some of us paid dearly for it.
I lost everything.
Until today.
[growls] I hope the king paid you well for your betrayal.
Not nearly well enough.
So now what?
You've come to teach the slippery Shark a lesson in honor?
Oh, no.
- [intense music playing] - [grunts] Honor's lost on you.
I'll settle for wiping that smirk off.
- [Vega roars, chomps teeth] - [Duke Bergan grunting]
- [Vega grunts] - [Duke Bergan roars]
[both grunting]
Is this really necessary?
[Duke Bergan] Same old tricks!
Better tricks than you've got! Oh. Get off, Bergan!
- You'd like a Bear hug? - [Vega groans]
[grunts, laughs]
Oh, it's like my Stag night all over again.
[both grunting]
[trooper] What's going on?
Gentlemen.
Remember where we are!
[breathing heavily]
[gasps softly]
You.
[dramatic music playing]
Huh? [gasps]
Bergan found you.
[gasps]
[breathing shakily]
I've waited a long time for this.
