The Musketeers (2014–2016): Season 3, Episode 10 - We Are the Garrison - full transcript

Following Treville's funeral the musketeers survive an attempt by Grimaud to kill them when their garrison is torched, leaving many casualties, and gunpowder and weapons stolen. To lure the musketeers into a trap Grimaud takes hostages including Sylvie but the four comrades stage a rescue, and the queen and Dauphin are restored to the palace with Milady as the royal spy master, her first task being to take care of Gaston. However the mortally wounded Grimaud escapes and the musketeers must stop him from blowing up the city with the stolen gunpowder.

Bury your friend...

...your minister...

...the saviour of France.

Your grief is your downfall.

Turn.

Lift.

While you weep...

...and mourn...

...as the pain overwhelms you.

You are blind.

You won't see me coming.



We're almost dry, Madame.

Oh.

I keep expecting him
to walk through that door.

Barking orders, face like thunder.

He had a temper.

An endearing temper.

You knew where you were with him.

We'll fetch some more wine
from the garrison.

He hasn't touched a drop.

Tell him, Sylvie.

We all need some good news.

This is not the time or the place.

Treville gave his life
for the country he loved.

He was a father to all of us.



We will never forget his bravery

or his sacrifice.

He won out against the cowards
who shot him down.

But we few here owe him much more.

We owe him everything we are.

Yeah, that's true.

He didn't care if you came from a farm,

he didn't care
if you came from the streets.

All he saw was the man
that you could become,

the soldier!

Aye, yes!

He gave us a home,

he gave us a family.

We were all young cadets once,

arriving at the garrison
full of self-doubt,

but it was Treville
who always believed in us.

And it was that belief

that made us into...

musketeers!

Treville!

Treville!

Go, get down!

Grimaud, Marcheaux?

We end this now!

The garrison!

Constance.

Constance!

Constance!

Constance!

D'Artagnan!

She's in there!

She's in there!

Stop him!

There's nothing in there.

He's gone!

Over here!

Athos!

Over here, there's still some alive!

Get over here!

Lift.

Enemy!

Don't shoot!

Sylvie, help me with these two.

Take this.

Stop the fire from spreading.

Where is everyone?

Go, go, go!

Clairmont.

I'm sorry.

Dear God.

It was Grimaud.

I know.

We were overwhelmed.

You are not to blame.

Who's that?

Clairmont.

Just breathe, alright?

Just breathe.

This cannot be all.

No one else could survive.

Brujon is still down there,
he's still down there.

Brujon!

Constance?

Constance!

Bring her back to me, Aramis, please.

Please, bring her back to me.

No.

No, she's not dead.

She can't be dead.

She's a musketeer.

Water, water.

I'm here, don't speak.

I'm here, I'm here, I'm here,
I'm here, I'm here.

It's me, don't speak, it's me.

It's me.

The explosion brought down
part of the roof.

I managed to drag us
under the cellar door.

I'm here, I'm here, I'm here.

I'm here.

What have they done to us?

Just breathe, just breathe.

Only D'Artagnan is dead.

They are in no position
to protect the Queen

and her son from us.

They are still alive!

They have nothing.

We have their powder,
enough to reduce Paris to ashes

and take our pick of the spoils.

Haven't they risked enough already?

Half of my men have already deserted me.

Your men?

We finish them.

We've recovered two wagons.

Some more horses.

We have no medical supplies left.

Weapons?

No, the armoury
was completely destroyed.

Listen, they must have taken
some of our gun powder.

The garrison
would've gone up twice as fast

if it'd all been there.

We'll take the wounded
to Christoph's Tavern.

We're leaving the Garrison?

There is no Garrison, Brujon.

This was our home.

A place where people came
for justice, sanctuary.

But it was only ever that, a place.

This is not the garrison.

Wherever we draw breath,
make a stand, save a life,

that is the garrison,
we are the garrison.

We have blankets, a little food.

We'll take it all to the tavern.

Let's ready the wagons.

I'll go to the Palace for provisions.

And gather whatever you can, please.

And hurry!

You must rest, Sylvie!

While our friends suffer?

You are no longer the King's Guard.

You have no authority!

We need no authority.

Murdering...

Will he come for you, the Captain?

You think you can use me as bait?

Will he come?

You're wrong, Grimaud.

The Captain doesn't care about me.

Either way, you'll both be dead soon.

Oh.

Sylvie.

No, no.

Bring that old woman to me.

Clairmont, Madame D'Artagnan
will look after you

at the tavern, alright?

Brujon, we'll meet you there.

Hey!

She's a friend of Sylvie's.

This is Sylvie's hand.

If we don't go to the camp by noon,

Grimaud's going to
execute refugees one by one.

Starting with Sylvie.

Well, we know where he is now.

Although, we've all fallen
for that trap before.

This time we've got the advantage.

This note's addressed to three of us.

Grimaud thinks D'Artagnan's dead.

The midwife betrayed you.

What made you so cruel?

Why would you bring a child
into this world?

Don't you know?

Oh, you don't, do you?

You take out as many as you can,
keep it quiet.

All the time they think you're dead,

we've got the upper hand
and we'll keep their eyes on us.

Aramis.

Make it count.

What's wrong?

There's more shrapnel in there.

- Fetch alcohol.
- Will he live?

And a fresh bandage.

Does it change things,

risking your life

when your life is no longer your own?

Brandy?

Yeah.

Here, drink this.

It changes everything.

It's the greatest cause
you'll ever have.

It makes you fight harder.

All these years and I never asked you.

Elodie?

What are you doing here?

The war found us again.

Stay with him.

I think she remembers you.

What did you call her?

Still haven't decided.

There's time.

Why Paris?

You're here.

Love you.

Love you.

Constance.

This is Elodie.

She needs somewhere to stay.

Of course.

Hello.

We've fought Grimaud
by our code of honour,

our rules.

But we know who we need to be,
know where to look,

no mercy.

No rules.

No honour.

Grimaud!

Were you really foolish enough

to come here on your own, Captain?

You left us with nothing.

Then we're almost even.

Weapons.

Hostages.

Now.

Which one of you started the fire?

I'm interested, come on!

Why don't you fight me, huh?

Man to man?

You, was it?

Execute Porthos and Aramis.

Bring the Captain to me.

I never took you for a coward, Grimaud!

And you said your mother was weak?

Move along!

You shouldn't have come.

Let her go.

You have me where you want me.

Not yet.

I want you to watch...

...as she dies.

She's no more afraid of death than I am.

She may not be afraid of her death...

What happened to the last wishes
of the condemned man, huh?

Oh, don't listen to him,
he'll only wanna pray.

Shoot!

Wait, wait, wait, wait!

I was thinking more of the hearty meal.

Get Marcheaux!

We're fine, we're safe.

Go, go!

Agh!

Go now!

Stay, surrender.

To you?

Yes, to me!

Surrender.

How many of your cadets
did we burn in the fire?

Perhaps, it was for the best?

Those cowards would
never have made musketeers.

They were all musketeers.

You forget I know
what you are, Marcheaux.

Now you can no longer hide
behind Grimaud.

Or Feron!

Get up!

That was for Sylvie.

That was for my cadets.

And this is for me.

I wasn't sure how to tell him.

I'm terrified.

And elated.

We're all elated for both of you.

All three of you.

No child could wish for better parents.

Or uncles.

And if it's a boy, we'll teach
him how to fight, won't we?

And if it's a girl?

We'll teach her
how to fight off the boys.

I've got to get the supplies
to Constance.

You need rest.

I'm with child, Athos, not without use.

I'll come with you.

Thank you.

Your plan saved their lives.

Your Majesty, I'd
like to recommend Porthos

for a promotion.

His courage has never been in question,

but his tactical instincts saved us all.

Not for the first time.

Recognition is long overdue, Captain.

It was not so long ago
that Treville stood before me

as you are now.

Tomorrow there will be
a blessing ceremony for my son

and to remember those
who died protecting him.

But it will not be attended

solely by generals and dignitaries,

everyone has been invited.

No matter who they are
or where they're from.

My Regency will mark a new era.

Treville's legacy will be
that he left the world

a more just place than he found it.

He also left a vacancy.

You'd be a worthy successor.

Athos?

Speak freely, we're friends.

Whilst I am greatly honoured,

it seems to me that the musketeer Aramis

would be far better suited.

My knowledge is merely military

whereas his is also ecclesiastic.

Yes, I suppose
that is worth considering.

And then there's his charm,
a great asset...

- Athos...
- With those prickly ambassadors.

Thank you for your advice, Captain.

Oh.

Well, I helped build my village.

I'm sure I can help rebuild a garrison.

Hmm.

Elodie, I could never give up
soldiering.

I'd never ask you to.

France needs you, remember?

Did we win, Brujon?

We won.

Then we'll get to wear the uniform.

One day, brother.

One day.

I really thought
he was getting stronger.

No, Brujon,

it's you who's got stronger.

Crying.

What are you doing?

You're hurt, Monsieur.

Were you in the attack?

I've only brandy now,

were you looking for something stronger?

The blade point is still in there,

you don't have to suffer.

Suffering makes us strong.

Do it.

I need you to stay here with us.

I'll stitch your wounds,
then make you up a bed.

I will never lie down.

Today is a new beginning, Monsieur.

There's hope for us all again,

however bad things may seem.

But I want you to stay here.

We can make you comfortable.

The other one.

We only have all this by God's grace.

Without the love of his people,
a King is nothing.

Majesty?

Your carriage is ready.

She's the most beautiful woman
I've ever seen.

But in the country
few speak well of her.

Many things will change after today.

That man.

He was at the tavern.

Do you know him?

The musketeers came
to my home looking for him.

Oh God!

D'Artagnan!

D'Artagnan.

- What's wrong?
- Grimaud.

- Where?
- In there.

We're missing half our powder
from the garrison.

If he's got it...

We need to get everybody away from here.

Everybody?

Do it now.

Take the Queen, he's here!

We cannot proceed.

- Why?
- Grimaud's inside.

We're moving.

Back to the carriage.

Now!

Leave the Cathedral
as quickly as possible.

All of you, with us, now!

- The Queen?
- Go!

The people look to you, Majesty.

Calm.

I'm Aramis.

Athos!

Quickly!

Ah!

- No!
- What?

- I need this.
- What?

I need to do this alone.

I will not raise your child!

You'll not survive me, Athos.

Love has made you weak.

Don't you know,

every man dies alone?

Ahh!

He doesn't have to live alone.

My favourite part of a battle
is always its end.

It's done.

Today, my faith was rewarded.

But the time has come to restore yours.

You are our future,

the people of Paris.

And you will always find justice

within her walls.

A Queen has many protectors,

but for too long you have had none.

That is why
I am disbanding my musketeers.

And reforming them as your musketeers.

Their depleted ranks will be redrawn

from the very streets
they are to protect.

And under their watchful gaze,

Paris will always be safe.

Long live the Queen!

Long live the Queen!

Are you my new servant, Aramis?

He's funny.

Takes after his father.

Porthos, you will return to the front

as General du Vallon.

Show our soldiers
they fight for a country

where any man can rise
if his talents merit it.

You honour me, Majesty.

The honour is mine.

Rebuild the garrison, Captain.

Aramis, I'd like you
to take Treville's place

as First Minister.

I don't think that's a good idea.

Take time.

Consider.

Elodie.

As much as France needs me...

...I'd also like to be there for you,

both of you.

If anything happens to me,
my pension will be paid to you.

I'm not your wife.

You'd better marry me before I go then.

Marie-Cessette.

That's what we should call our daughter.

Marie-Cessette.

Perhaps, I'll remain a musketeer.

You'll always be a musketeer, Aramis.

But if you accept the Queen's offer,

you can watch over your son
all the days of your life.

As his minister, not his father.

Treville guided each of us,

as men.

Musketeers, as men.

Do you remember him as nothing more

than your Captain or your minister?

This is the name.

Majesty, who knew
you could be so practical.

I assume this will
not trouble you unduly?

Treville did not doubt my skills.

Treville is gone.

From now on you report to me.

And me alone.

A word of warning, Majesty.

Deciding if a man lives or dies,

conscience makes a cruel companion.

You are indeed alone now.

Who are you?

Later.

What are you doing here?

I'm trying to make a decision.

Perhaps, you could help me, Monsieur?

Tell me which would you prefer,

the blade or the bullet?

It's been such a long time,

I really can't decide?

Guard!

Both then.

Please, I'll give you anything,

everything.

You already have.

Who are you?

I'm Milady de Winter.

Brujon?

I'm going to the front,

prepare my horse.

And prepare one for yourself,

you're coming, too.

I'm not a musketeer, General.

Aren't you?

You earned that.

What are you waiting for?

General.

This is it.

You'll be back.

Come here.

I know you will.

Captain.

General.

Look after him.

Hold on.

Only take the best, understand?

Anything less and
you'll disgrace our regiment.

What did he mean by that?

You'll be in charge
of recruiting and training

the new musketeers.

That's a Captain's responsibility.

Athos, I'm afraid I cannot accept.

Are you refusing my last order?

I cannot accept.

Athos is taking a leave of absence

to fulfil a mission of great importance.

You will return?

Then we will discuss this again.

I don't doubt it.

Seems like we've got
some work to do, Captain?

Well, you've saved Paris.

What lies ahead for us, I wonder?

It really doesn't matter.

Doesn't matter?

Not if we face every challenge

the way we always have.

With great passion...

...hearts that stay true...

...to all we hold dear.

Courage,

no matter how many enemies
lie in wait for us.

Faith...

...that daylight
will always follow the dark.

And love?

Above all else.
