Boudica: Rise of the Warrior Queen (2019) Movie Script

What's wrong, is it too much?

No, no.

I'll be fine.

You taught me well.

I understand it is my time.

Lucilia!

Is she ready?

Stand up straight.

A lot of people are

counting on you, Boudica.

Do not dishonor the family name.

Her hair, it's not right.

She is ready.

It needs to be done again.

The future of our

clan depends on this.

I will not let you

hold things up further.

Forgive me, Scavo.

Athedo is here.

He's waiting in the throne room.

Rome has appointed a

new governor, Scapula.

And he has decreed

that the tribes

must hand over

all their weapons.

As the only two tribes

yet to bend their knee,

we must stand together

now and show the others

that Rome will not take

what is rightfully ours.

Our arrangement can wait.

We must act now.

Will you join us?

We will.

We'll attend to our

business upon our return.

Father, I don't

understand what is going on.

You do not need to

understand, Boudica.

Now go with your mother.

- But Father-

- Do not disobey me, child!

Go with your mother.

Shh, it's okay,

it's all right.

Just don't scream, okay?

You need to gather your things.

Why?

What are you doing?

Mom!

The Romans are coming for us.

They are heading this way.

We need to leave here at once.

But what about Father?

Your father has

been gone for days.

He's probably already dead.

What?

Here, put this on.

Mama!

Boudica, I know

this is strange,

but all will become

clear, I promise.

What is that?

Supplies.

You've been planning

this, haven't you?

How far are we going?

Far enough.

Where are you taking me?

We haven't got time for this.

No, this isn't fair.

Do you trust me?

Of course I do.

Then follow me.

I promise I'll

explain everything.

Whoa!

Are you all right?

Mom, please, can we stop?

Ugh! There must be a

better route than this!

We're in the middle of nowhere!

This is the safest way.

The safest way for what?

This is ridiculous.

The Romans aren't

coming for us, I lied.

This is for your

benefit, Boudica,

for your future.

I don't understand.

I could not stand aside

and let you marry a man

that you don't love.

I've done that, Boudica,

and believe me, it

leads to a lifetime

of misery and regret.

That young man that you

saw from the other tribe,

Prasutagus, your betrothed,

the man that you would live

with for the rest of your life,

day in, day out,

bear his children

and do whatever he wants

whenever he wants...

Do you really want all of that?

It doesn't matter what I want.

It's what I have to do

to honor our family.

Oh, my child.

You no longer have

to do any of that.

The union of our tribe

and the Trinovantes

is not your responsibility,

it is your father's.

This, this is why I

have taken you away.

So you can live

whatever life you like.

Something I could only dream of

when I was your age.

Will we see Father again?

You were right before.

I have been planning

this for a long time.

We are going somewhere where

your father will never find us.

Couldn't we just

have reasoned with him?

Do you want to go back?

You think you know your father

but you don't know

him like I do.

He is strong.

And stubborn.

And cruel.

His pride will drive him mad

and he will search for

us until the day he dies

or until he kills us.

I have followed his rules

and lived under his shadow

for far too long.

It is time for us to have

some freedom, you and me.

Is this really for both of us?

Or just for yourself?

You will always come

first to me, Boudica.

You are my one and only child,

and I will do everything

in my power to protect you.

Now come on.

We were lucky this

time, my friend.

If we'd faced greater numbers,

the outcome might have

been less fortunate.

They will not make

that mistake again.

Scapula will be joining

reinforcements as we speak.

Our union must be confirmed.

I can understand

your impatience.

Prasutagus and Boudica will

be married soon enough.

Our union will set an

example to the other tribes

that we can stand against Rome.

Only with their help

will we stand a chance.

Athedo!

Scavo, Scavo,

we have received news from home.

What is it?

Boudica and Lucilia

are both missing.

We sent out search parties.

There's no sign as yet.

Was it an attack?

Nothing else has been touched.

Am I hearing this right?

I suggest you resolve

this as soon as possible.

No daughter means no union.

I will find them.

Untouched, I hope.

My son will not be wedded

to tarnished goods.

Tarnished goods?

I can't help but note the

timing of this incident, Athedo.

How am I to know you

are not involved?

Watch your tongue, Scavo.

Question my honor

again, and the Romans

will be the least

of your troubles.

You have many

enemies, my friend,

but I am not one of them.

It's up to you to

find out who is.

And what of your

responsibilities?

I'll send my

men out to search,

and Prasutagus will

accompany you himself.

After all, it is his bride

that is missing, too.

You said it would

take just a few days.

I don't understand why we

can't just stick to a path.

I told you before, we

can't afford to be seen.

At this rate, we won't be

seen by anyone ever again.

We are not lost,

I just haven't been

there for a long time.

We'll find it, I promise.

Find what?

Is that Father's?

This has been worn

by the leaders of the

Iceni for generations.

It is your birthright

to become a leader

one day, if you wish.

Whilst I am with you now,

there will come a

day where I won't,

let this broach be a

proof of your lineage.

I love you very much, Boudica.

You must always know that.

I love you too, Mom.

Now come on, we must sleep.

So this is

where you used to live?

Yes,

and this is where

we're going to live from now on.

But

there's nothing here.

At least at home

there are people.

We are home.

No, we're not.

We can't live out

here on our own.

We belong back in the village.

Your father won't

have us back now.

There's nothing there

for you anymore.

Well, what about Prasutagus?

You don't love Prasutagus.

Well, I've learned to.

I thought like that once.

Look at me.

You're with me, now.

We will make this work.

Is he

going to be all right?

His wound is deep.

It looks like he's tried

to stitch it himself.

Is he going to die?

Boudica, we have no

idea who this man is.

We can't trust him, which means

we can't help him.

What are we supposed to do,

just watch him die?

He's just another

mouth to feed,

and we're going to struggle,

just the two of us.

Please, can we help him?

Just take a look at the wound,

see how bad it is and

then make a decision?

I will take a look at it,

but be prepared.

There's only so much I can do.

I'm sure we'll find them.

Of course, I was just-

- I do not need words of

sympathy from you, boy!

Understand?

I need progress.

Is there any word

from?

Yes, apologies.

We've been informed that he

was killed by his own nephew.

Do you wish to speak to him?

No.

No, if is

dead, the Catuvellauni

will be too busy fighting

amongst themselves

to have been involved.

Gather the men, we're moving on.

Where are we going?

I've been a fool

to think that anyone

other than the Romans

could be behind this.

The Romans, are you sure?

Open your eyes, boy.

It can be no one else.

But the Romans are trying

to quell the fighting.

This would be an act of war.

Their mere presence

is an act of war.

You children, you have no idea

what they've done to this land.

How things were before they

poisoned us against each other.

How they make us

abide by their laws

and worship their false gods.

Have you learnt nothing

from your father?

You know I speak the truth.

The Romans are

not to be trusted.

Nothing is beneath them.

Then where should

we look first?

Camulodunum.

The Roman town?

Hm.

Very well.

I can't believe the

state of this place.

Finding food and water will

not be as easy as back home.

What do you mean?

It's a different

world out here.

You'll have to learn

how to survive properly.

Don't worry, I'll teach you.

Did you live here

when you met Father?

I met your father

on our wedding day.

He never came here?

I was 14 when

my mother told me

it was time to get married.

I was petrified.

I cried myself to

sleep every night

just worrying about who

this man was gonna be.

Your father never visited me,

and we never met on our own.

We married and

he took me back to his home.

The town seemed

so big in my eyes,

compared to here.

I couldn't believe my life

had changed in just one day.

And Father?

As the Romans started

to take over our land,

anger and bitterness

took over your father.

He became nasty and violent.

The smallest of things

would set him off.

I would have killed

myself years ago

and ended this nightmare,

had you not come along.

Boudica,

we cannot trust him.

You know nothing about him.

Exactly.

You cannot trust men.

And we certainly

cannot trust him.

Listen to me.

I will kill him if

he does anything

to give me reason to do so.

Listen to me.

Is she ready?

Do not disobey me, child.

Do not dishonor the family name.

A lifetime of

misery and regret.

Do you really want all of that?

Mom!

Boudica!

What's wrong, what's wrong?

He's awake.

This town is now

under Roman rule.

I must leave our weapons here.

We are not here to fight.

We are here to find

my wife and daughter.

Drink!

You, I'm looking for

somebody to help me.

Meaning?

Where are the slaves kept?

You need him, over there.

He can help you.

Do you have anything for sale?

I have coin.

There's no wasting

about with you, is there?

Follow me.

Hey!

This is my latest door.

Criminals mostly, all

destined for the mines.

This one on the

left's pretty smart

Unless you're willing

to offer a better price.

Any of these tickle your fancy?

I'm looking for

women and girls.

Oh, yeah?

Well, we've got one

woman at the moment

if you can call her that.

Which is a shame because

they can be quite popular,

if you know what

I mean.

The women in this land do

little for me, to be honest.

I prefer a woman

who's taken a bath

at least once in her

lifetime.

We will not find

them if we kill today.

It's time to leave.

I'm sorry for taking so much.

You caught me by surprise.

I mean you no harm.

I didn't realize

anybody lived here.

We haven't always lived here.

But we do now.

This is our house.

Who are you?

My name is Geminus.

I traveled here

with my tribesmen

to help them fight the Romans.

But we were

outnumbered in defeat.

I was separated from the others

along with another wounded man.

This wounded man,

is that who you were

burying out there?

I'm so sorry.

You have said you've

not always lived here.

What brings you

to this place now?

This is my family home.

I grew up here as a child.

My husband has died recently.

It was too dangerous

to stay there.

I decided to bring

my daughter here

to start a new life

away from the Romans.

Let me make this clear.

My father built this house,

and I will not be driven

out by a stranger.

You can remain here until

you regain your strength,

but as soon as you are better

you will have to leave.

I appreciate your honesty.

Winter is fast approaching.

And this place is falling apart.

- How do you expect-

- Enough.

We don't need your help.

I'm quite aware of the

circumstances that we are in,

but myself and Boudica

can work it out together.

Boudica.

It means goddess of victory.

As long as we

understand each other,

we are settled.

What if Geminus could help us?

When he gets stronger he can

help us rebuild this place.

Let's not get

ahead of ourselves.

He needs to get strong first.

Now get some rest.

You're

looking a lot better.

I feel it.

I can't thank you and

your mother enough.

Where is she?

Out gathering food.

With another mouth

to feed, it's crucial

we find more to eat.

Has it ever occurred

to you you may not

be able to stay here forever?

What happens if you

run out of food?

I don't know.

All I do know is

wherever my mother

goes, I'll go.

What about you?

Don't you have a

home to go back to?

Family? Wife?

I have dozens of wives.

I'm sure they all

miss me terribly.

Are you married?

Sorry, that...

That really isn't

any of my business.

No, it isn't any

of your business,

but no, I'm not.

Really?

Would you like to

be married some day?

Is that some kind of proposal?

No, I'm just intrigued

to know what type of

girl you are, that's all.

What type of girls

are there, then?

Well, there's some

that wish to get married

and have children.

Most others prefer

to experience more.

And which do you think I am?

I don't know yet.

Guess I'll have to spend more

time with you to be sure.

What type of man are you?

Thought I knew

You're looking a

lot better today.

And up on your

feet, that's good.

You can leave first

thing tomorrow morning.

I understand.

Can I at least cook

for us tonight?

If you so wish.

You don't mind giving me

a hand with these, do you?

I can see what's happening.

What do you mean?

You and him.

You think I can't see it?

See what?

The looks between

the pair of you.

Going quiet when I

walk in the door.

Offering to feed him

and tend to his wounds.

I'm not stupid.

I never said you were.

Well, it just feels

like you're both getting

a bit too close for comfort.

And what's so

wrong about that?

When you dragged

me out of my home

in the middle of

nowhere, you told me

it was so that I could

live the way I like.

And love who I want.

So why do I still feel trapped?

Don't be so ridiculous.

Me, ridiculous?

How is that fair?

Look, I don't want to

argue with you, not over him.

Me, neither, but I

just need to breathe.

Maybe you need to think

about the real reason

why you dragged me out here.

And what is

that supposed to mean?

Boudica!

Up! Get up!

Grab your things and let's go.

Where are we going?

We're heading to

the next Roman town.

What makes you

think they're there?

Just because it's a Roman town?

Let's not waste our time, Scavo.

When Rome has deprived

you of something you love,

you tell me then that

we're wasting your time.

I will search every

Roman town in the empire

if that's what it takes.

If you and those men

are too lazy to do so,

then leave now,

'cause I will not rest

until I have my family back.

When Boudica was born,

she looked up at me, and I knew

I would do anything

to keep her safe.

I would never rest,

I would never give up

til she could live in a

land free of Rome's tyranny.

I will fight them

until my dying breath.

What is she like, Boudica?

She is tough.

She's a hard worker

and headstrong.

She has a temper, too.

She'd eat you alive.

So nice to be back

on my feet again.

I'm lucky to be

where I am, though.

Like I said, I'm very grateful

to you and your mother.

I know she isn't fond of me.

But you've always

given me a chance.

You have a kind heart.

And if there's anything

I can do for you,

I'll do it.

We'd better get moving

if you want to find something

good to cook tonight.

Be dark soon.

How have you never

learned to do these things?

These are all basic

survival skills.

Just something my father does.

Being the leader of our

tribe means jobs like hunting

tend to be his responsibility.

Leader of a tribe?

A king?

Yeah, I guess

you could say that.

He is a very powerful man.

I thought your

father was dead.

Yeah, he is.

I guess it hasn't

quite sunk in yet

that he is gone.

You all right?

Yeah, I...

It's been a busy afternoon,

and I guess my body

isn't used to it yet.

Do you mind if we sit?

Not for long, just-

- Of course.

What is that?

It's been passed

down through my family.

My mother gave it to me when

we left home to come here.

It must mean a lot to you.

It does.

Family means a lot to me.

Something my father

always taught me.

Have I grown to

mean a lot to you?

We need to go now.

My mother will be

worried about me.

About where I am.

Geminus.

A gesture of thanks

for everything you've done.

Good morning.

How're you feeling?

About yesterday, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to make

you feel uncomfortable.

I just thought you felt-

- Don't apologize.

I was just confused about

how to feel, that's all.

So how do you feel now?

Mom?

What's wrong?

You don't look very well.

I'm fine.

Don't fuss.

Where are you going?

To get some fresh air.

Maybe you should go with her.

I don't think it's wise

to leave her alone.

I'm worried about you.

There's no need, I'm fine.

You're not well.

It came on during the night

after I'd had food.

The weather is changing.

It is normal to feel

ill this time of year.

This has nothing to

do with the weather.

Come on, I need to take

you back to the cottage

so you can rest.

Come on.

What's happened?

I don't know.

I was outside, and

it just caved in.

We're lucky we weren't inside.

There's not much we

can do about this now,

we're just gonna

have to weather it.

Why would a hole just appear?

It doesn't make sense.

You must have done something.

This is going to

take days to repair.

Can you repair this?

Of course we can.

I'll collect wood

for the supports

and you can fix the roof.

How long until

it all falls down?

What would you suggest?

How about we just

tear the place down

and start again from scratch?

We could look for

somewhere else to stay.

We?

You are very welcome

to find somewhere else.

Calm down, both of you.

If it gets worse, then

we can make a decision.

But right now, you need to rest.

But Boudica, we can't-

- No!

Leave it to Geminus and me.

Been working on

this roof for days.

Doesn't seem to be

getting any better.

The supports are all rotted.

It'll all need to come down,

and we can't do it between us.

I just wanted to do

something nice for my mother.

One less thing for

her to worry about.

Of course, but it's

just not safe anymore.

Listen to me.

You have to find

somewhere else to stay.

Boudica!

There are bound to

be villagers nearby.

Or you could go back home

where you know it is safe.

Why do you want us

out of here so badly?

I don't, it's just-

- Just stop!

It's still standing,

so my mother and I

will continue to live here.

Grow up and be realistic.

I don't have to

do anything you say.

Boudica?

Boudica.

What's happened?

Look, if this is about the roof-

- It's not about the roof.

What, then?

This is about him, isn't it?

Not now.

Now

is a perfect time.

I don't trust him, Boudica.

I haven't from day one.

I still think that

there's something

not quite right about him.

The way that you two are

getting close together,

I just feel like he's

coming between us.

What are you trying to say?

I'm just saying that

he needs to leave now.

So you can have

me all to yourself?

Is that it?

What?

You didn't bring me out

here so I could be free.

You just want me to

yourself all the time.

No, that's not true.

Yes it is!

If I was to go off and marry,

you would be alone with Father.

And you've made your feelings

towards him perfectly clear.

How dare you?

What, tell the truth?

Let's start being honest

with each other, shall we?

Or let's carry on pretending

that this whole nightmare

was to protect me.

Everything I have

done has been for you.

You are my daughter,

my one and only child.

I would rather die

than see you miserable

for the rest of your life.

Just because

you were miserable

doesn't mean for a second

that I would've been.

I know you would have.

No, you just assumed.

Why can't I make

my own decisions

about what happens to me?

Stop thinking that my

desire to protect you

is the same as trying

to control your life.

Maybe you should've stayed.

Or maybe you should focus

on saving your own marriage

instead of ruining mine!

What is wrong with you?

We've fought in battles

that have lasted weeks,

and now you drag your feet?

But we're not in battle.

What did you say?

We're not in battle, Scavo.

We're just aimlessly

wandering around the forest

with no idea where we're going.

We are searching for

my wife, my daughter.

We understand

the urgency, Scavo.

Are we really gonna search

every Roman town in Britain

until you're satisfied

they're not there?

I will do whatever it takes.

The trail has run dry, Scavo.

Your future

queen is out there.

And unless you want to

live the rest of your lives

under the leadership of Rome,

you will continue

to help me find her.

This is not just for me.

This is for the future

of the Iceni tribe,

the future of your families.

If you wish to turn

your back on your tribe

you're welcome to leave now.

She's not here.

I know, I saw her run off.

Is everything okay?

This has nothing

to do with you.

Actually, this has

everything to do with you.

I'm concerned about my daughter

and how close you have become.

I don't trust you.

And I can't just sit here

and watch my daughter

have her heart broken.

Lucilia,

I can appreciate the fact

that we've not agreed

on certain things,

but if there's one

thing we can agree on,

it's that we both

care about Boudica

very much.

Nothing can break the love a

mother has for her daughter.

I don't want to do that.

I just want to be given the

chance to make her happy.

I should go and find her.

- If you hurt her-

- Lucilia.

You have my word.

Bring her back safe.

Let her know that I love her.

I thought I'd find

you out here crying.

But instead, you're

trying to kill a tree.

Don't push me.

I'm trying to help you.

Widen your stance.

Bend your knees.

You want to hit here

and on the way

back you hit here.

Your mother's worried about you.

She's upset.

I can see you are, too.

Is there anything we can do?

The way I spoke to

you before, I'm sorry.

There's no need to apologize.

I understand.

The way you were

attacking that tree,

the way you speak to people,

you have fire and passion.

If you were to channel

all that energy

and anger into one thing

you would be unstoppable.

Tell me about you, Geminus.

There's not much to tell.

I've never really known

my place in this world.

Just been thankful

to survive each day.

Sometimes I feel like I just go

wherever the wind takes me.

But with you, Boudica,

I know where I am.

Halt!

What business do you have here?

I'm surprised to see a

Roman troop about these parts.

Are you in search of something?

Perhaps we can help.

We do not need any help

from the likes of you.

So you haven't seen two

women on your travels?

We do not know what

you are talking about.

Now move along!

Very well.

They have weapons.

Wait!

We'll take those

weapons before you go.

By order of Governor

Astoria Scapula.

Which weapon?

I'm afraid me and my

friends have decided

we don't want you

bastards telling us

what we can and can't do.

What are you doing?

Leave now, boy.

You don't have to be here.

I'm ready to fight.

You're too important.

Go back and tell your

father what has happened.

You've done enough

son, now leave.

What tribe do you belong to?

Belong to?

I am Scavo, King

of the Iceni tribe.

And I am looking for the Romans

who took my wife and daughter.

We do not know

where you family are.

Surrender now while you

still have the chance.

I would rather die

fighting for what I believe

than crawl away like a coward.

What are you doing here?

- Speak!

- A rescue mission.

For who?

A general, brother to

the governor himself.

Scapula's brother?

Yes, he's in the

hills to the north.

Please, let me-

I'm searching for

a Roman general.

Have you passed anyone?

No, we haven't.

Who are you?

What are you doing here?

We are very sorry,

we are on our way.

We're not sorry.

We have done nothing wrong.

I believe it's none of

your business, anyway.

Boudica,

let's just go.

Do you know who I am, girl?

Girl?

I don't appreciate your tone.

Take her back to where

you came from immediately.

If you want me to move,

talk to me, not him.

Let's just

move on peacefully.

Don't think you

can get away free

after disrespecting

a soldier of Rome.

Okay, this is

getting out of hand.

Boudica, we need to go.

Now!

Where have you been?

You need to leave now.

What?

I'm ordering you both

to leave immediately.

It's not safe anymore.

You have to come with us.

I can't.

Please, come with us.

I said no.

Now gather your things together.

Geminus!

Stop, what's happening?

It's not safe here.

It never has been.

And now the Romans are coming.

Enough!

You do not have the

right to order us around.

Are you not listening to me?

The Romans are on their way.

This is my home.

I will not be forced out of it.

You need to calm down.

It's going to be fine.

When Geminus came

looking for me,

a Roman found us in the woods.

He started fighting

with Geminus,

and we killed him.

What?!

He was going to kill us.

We had no other choice.

You could've listened to me

but you chose not to!

And now I've killed

a Roman officer.

The Romans are our enemy.

So am I!

I'm a legionnaire

in the Roman army.

That's not true.

I was recruited two years ago

and I've been fighting against

people like you ever since.

I don't believe it.

You're just saying that

to get us to leave.

It's the truth.

Boudica, I'm trying

to protect you.

When you first arrived here,

the wounded man I was with,

he was a Roman general.

I volunteered to

stay by his side

while my compatriot

went off for help.

More legionnaires

are on their way.

And when they get here,

I'm not gonna be

able to protect you.

I'm not going anywhere.

If I die, it will

be in this house.

If you stay here

you will be sealing

Boudica's fate as well.

I can't allow that.

No, Geminus, don't!

You're not a bad man.

Please, my mother

loves this place.

We'll figure something out,

but do not hurt her.

Then talk sense into her.

This isn't you.

I know who you are.

You're sweet and caring.

You have a good heart.

You don't know your place

in this world, remember?

I love you.

I know you love me, too.

Your place in this

world is with me.

Please, I beg you,

when the legionnaires

come, reason with them.

You always said how

thankful you were

to me and my mother

for saving your life.

That'd be in return.

Kill me.

I deserve no less.

I love you both.

I need you both

with me, by my side.

Whatever challenges await us,

we will face them together.

We need to talk.

Boudica, he's lying to us.

Listen to me.

Geminus said that he volunteered

to protect the

Roman general, yes?

When we got here, he was wounded

and barely able to stand up.

What use would he have

been to the general?

Look, I'm not saying this

to cause another argument.

I'm just saying that I'm certain

he's not telling the truth.

I want to know what's

really buried out there.

If you're not

right about this...

There's no question about it.

His story doesn't add up.

Something else happened here.

Think, Boudica.

I'll take him into the woods,

and that will give you enough

time to dig up the grave.

I'm not leaving you

alone with that man.

He's not going to hurt me.

You don't know that.

We don't know what

he's capable of.

Boudica, I told you

I'd always protect you.

I will go into the woods.

You stay here, and

while we are gone,

you find out what's

buried in the ground.

Do you trust me?

Yes.

Walk with me.

I understand we haven't always

seen eye to eye, Geminus.

But you must appreciate I

love my daughter very much

and I can sometimes seem a

little overprotective of her.

Your mother must have been

the same way with you.

I understand how young men

are recruited into the legions.

For some, it can be

the right decision.

Was it that way with you?

It was either join the

Roman army or be killed.

I wasn't ready to die.

And now that you've

killed one of your own?

Whether you meant to or not,

I can imagine that you're going

through a tough time right now.

What you do next

is very important,

not just for you, but

for Boudica, as well.

So what are your true

feelings for my daughter?

If you do wish to marry her,

I need to know your

intentions for her safety.

Why have you really

brought me here, Lucilia?

We both know you'd never

let me marry Boudica.

Are you trying to distract

me from something?

I'm looking for my

wife and daughter.

Have you seen them?

We have no idea what

you're talking about.

Move on.

Who is this man?

I told you to move on.

I do not take

orders from Rome.

Who is this man?

He is General

Octavius Scapula.

Brother to Governor

Ostorius Scapula.

Now move on or face the wrath

of the most powerful

man in Britain.

You'll both be dead long

before long before he's here.

Leave now while you

still have the chance.

Legionnaires are on their way.

I wouldn't be so sure, boy.

If your brother wants to

take my family from me,

I'm gonna take his.

I'm sorry, Boudica.

He arrived here a

day before you did.

He was looking for you.

I tried to get him to listen.

I tried to make him leave,

but there was no

reasoning with him.

He was like a madman.

Before I knew it, he

pulled his sword out

and he killed the general.

He seemed so pleased

with what he had done,

I knew I was next.

It was self defense.

I had no other choice.

I had no idea who you were then

or what was going to happen.

Please.

Try to understand.

Where is my mother?

Look at me!

No, no!

Listen to me, listen to me.

No!

Boudica, why can't you see

you're so much better than them?

You don't need her or

your father anymore.

That passion, that

fire inside of you,

you have the strength

to change the world.

If you would ask me, I

would turn my back on Rome

and stand by your

side, no matter what.

Think about what we

could do together.

Let go of the past, Boudica.

Embrace the warrior inside you.

Ugh!

Mama!

Boudica.

Mom?

Boudica!

Mom!

Come on.

I like your confidence.

Put the sword down, Boudica.

I want not to have to kill you.

It's time for

you to go, Geminus.

You need to get away from

here and never come back.

I'm not going

anywhere without her.

I've turned my back

on everything for you

and now I wanna

collect what's mine.

I will never go with you!

My place is with my mother.

Just go, Geminus.

Look at you.

She could never love you.

She would've loved me

if it wasn't for you.

If you would've

just left us alone,

everything would've been fine.

Everything would've been fine?

You're nothing but a cruel,

- weak man.

- Shut up!

You need to grow up, girl.

Do you really wanna

live under her control

the rest of your life?

You really need somebody

to set you free.

Ugh!

The fight in you, look

how strong you've become.

You're a goddess, a warrior.

Boudica.

No, no.

You didn't need your father,

now you don't need your mother.

You're right, and I

don't need you either.
