The first 196 lines.
It's important,
my darling boys,
to reflect on the world at large
at a time like this.
That's why I brought you to Africa,
the birthplace of mankind.
A place where we can feel a greater rhythm--
You're not going to start quoting The Lion King again,
are you?
There is so much of your mother in you both.
She'd be very proud of you.
Why did you make us walk behind the coffin?
You had a duty--
we all did--
to show honor to your mother,
to the country,
to set an example.
I don't want to set an example!
Harry!
Harry, come back!
Good afternoon.
What are we having today?
Your Highness,
these are for the Queen's meeting
with the Privy Council.
Oh.
Such a shame.
They look delicious.
Perhaps if you're feeling peckish,
we could arrange for something to be brought up?
A hot dog.
A hot dog?
Yes, please.
With mustard, and... onions, and relish.
Right away. Anything else?
No,
thank you.
We wouldn't want to be gluttons,
now, would we?
Mm...
Couldn't we have just asked for the pastries?
I suppose,
but where's the fun in that?
But isn't it naughty?
It's okay to be naughty sometimes.
Just as long as you don't get caught.
I wish you didn't have to go.
It's only for a little while.
And you know I'm always with you,
no matter where you are.
Harry!
It's not safe!
: Harry...
Back away.
Harry...
"Goodbye, dear.
I'll have dinner waiting for you when you get back from work."
"Thanks, honey. You're my hero!"
...India, and Laos.
The gloves are coming off.
Women are fighting greasy pots and pans
all over America--
with Ivory Clear.
It's not right
for kids to grow up thinking these things,
that just Mom does everything.
They should say "people," not "women."
You wash just as many dishes.
Don't I know it?
Dad, I'm serious.
They're making it seem like women belong in a kitchen.
You're right.
You should be angry.
The question is,
what are you going to do about it?
I don't know, stop watching TV?
Don't go crazy on me.
TV pays the bills around here.
Do you remember
when you came home that day,
all upset
because you didn't want to fill the ethnicity form at school?
I didn't want to choose between you and Mom.
And what did I tell you?
You told me to draw my own box.
Exactly.
Now, honey,
I know you want to make
a huge difference in the world,
not just for yourself, but for other people.
So get to it.
Tell them how you really feel.
But they're not going to listen to me.
I'm just a kid.
I wouldn't be so sure.
You're never too young to be a badass.
If you think you're going silence me
with a cheap threat,
you are going to get the surprise of your life.
And even if you somehow manage to shut me up,
there are a thousand other women who will take my place,
so I'm going to ask you this once.
Do we settle here,
or will I see you in court?
Cut!
Great, Meghan, that was just great.
Hey, let's go again.
Yeah.
Um, how about, this time,
maybe try striking a pose?
You know, do a little head tilt.
Be kind of coquettish?
Yes, exactly.
Yeah, I don't think that Rachel would be doing that
in this moment.
I mean, she's kind of an empowered woman
and she just won the scene with her brains,
and the strength of her conviction.
Also, I wanted to talk to you
about the next scene.
Rachel's in a towel.
It's the middle of the day.
She just came from court.
I don't see why she would go home and take a shower.
It just feels gratuitous.
How about a bathrobe?
How about...
a suit?
It's the name of the show.
I'll talk to the producers.
Thanks, dude.
I appreciate you hearing me out.
: "Someday, my Prince Harry will come"?
Oh, for God's sake.
Yeah.
And I'm afraid Pa is not amused.
It was a private club.
I can't even let off steam like any normal person?
I'm not sure any of this is normal,
least of all you.
But look, as far as I'm concerned, you carry on.
Keep making me smell like a rose.
You do smell like a rose, you ponce.
Aren't you bored of being perfect yet?
It's not me that's perfect.
It's Kate.
I just shove her out there and she makes me look good.
She's the best thing that ever happened to you.
You'll find someone.
You're just looking in all the wrong places.
Come on, let's get you presentable.
We've got to go see Pa and the powers-that-be.
It was a private club.
I mean...
I'd hoped after the Nazi uniform,
and stripping down
and showing off the family jewels in Las Vegas,
we were past all this.
Well, what am I supposed to do,
never have fun?
: All three of our press offices
had to pull strings to get this taken down
before the redtops ran with it.
Thank you for that, Robert.
Of course, Your Highness.
Thank God, your grandmother didn't see.
It would have killed her.
I'm a grown man.
I should be able to live my life outside of this royal bubble.
If he goes on like this,
there won't be a royal bubble,
or a bloody throne for either of us to sit on.
Thanks for the support there, Will.
You knew what Mum would say.
"It's okay to be naughty..."
"...As long as you don't get caught."
In that case,
I guess Pa is not the only parent
I've disappointed today.
Why not give Cressie a call?
I thought you two
were talking about getting back together.
She's not the one.
But if you settle down,
the press will, too.
They'll find someone else to focus on.
And marriage isn't so bad.
Is it, Will?
Is it, Will?
Of course not, my love.
I'm just saying
Peter Pan can't stay in Neverland forever.
Someday, he's got to grow up.
So, would you rather be 42, divorced, no kids,
42, divorced, with kids,
or 42, never married, no kids?
