[00:12] Minchster
    For the great service she has
    performed for the imperial family,
[00:15] Minchster
    the Order of the Imperial Rose is
    hereby bestowed upon Lady Clorence.
[00:26] Minchester
    And...
[00:32] Minchester
    I, Minchester de Romanoff, in
    recognition of her great service,
[00:37] Minchester
    grant Elise de Clorence
    the noble rank of knight.
[00:49] guest 1
    It was a magnificent ceremony!
[00:51] guest 2
    Indeed! And to think, it's the first
    time it's been awarded to a woman!
[00:55] guest 2
    I should expect no less of the
    lady chosen by Prince Linden.
[00:59] Elise
    I, um...
[01:00] guest 3
    I read about it in the newspaper.
[01:02] guest 3
    Before you become crown princess, you're
    doing volunteer work at a hospital, aren't you?
[01:09] Elise
    No, my work as a doctor isn't
    simply volunteer work.
[01:12] guest 1
    And you're still so young!
    How very impressive.
[01:16] guest 2
    I just know you'll become
    a wise crown princess.
[01:28] Minchester
    What do you think?
[01:30] (Flashback) Minchester
    I'd like to put an end to our
    wager here. What about you?
[01:38] Elise; internal
    If... If things keep on as they
    are and I lose the wager...
[01:44] Elise; internal
    No, I can't lose my nerve now!
[01:46] Elise; internal
    The physician's exam is in two days.
[01:49] Elise; internal
    I will become a doctor,
    no matter what it takes!
[03:33] Minchester
    Allow me to say it once more.
    Congratulations, Lady Clorence.
[03:37] Elise
    Thank you, Your Majesty.
[03:39] Elise
    I'm astonished to receive
    such a prestigious award.
[03:44] Minchester
    What are you saying? Considering
    your actions, it's only natural.
[03:50] Elise
    I'm honored.
[03:53] Minchester
    Today is such a good day.
[03:56] Minchester
    The sky is blue. The music is pleasant.
[04:01] Minchester
    The people's faces are
    overflowing with smiles.
[04:06] Minchester
    It would be nice if days like
    today could continue forever.
[04:16] Minchester
    Have I said something strange?
[04:18] Elise
    No, it isn't that.
[04:21] Elise
    It's just that...
[04:22] Elise
    I think it's a lovely wish.
[04:26] Minchester
    We're free to wish what we like, aren't we?
[04:28] Elise
    Yes, we are.
[04:31] Minchester
    I know that the reality is that
    there aren't only good days.
[04:36] Elise; internal
    His Majesty's face seems pale to me.
[04:41] Elise; internal
    He is still being treated for his
    chronic illness, diabetes, but...
[04:45] Elise
    Were you able to sleep well last night?
[04:49] Minchester
    Yes.
[04:50] Elise
    You don't have any symptoms like
    dizziness or sudden weakness?
[04:55] Minchester
    No, I don't.
[04:56] Elise
    Then, is there something else—
[04:57] Minchester
    Lady Clorence.
[05:00] Minchester
    This isn't a hospital.
[05:03] Minchester
    Besides...
[05:05] Minchester
    you are today's main event.
[05:10] Minchester
    Look. There is someone over there
    who wishes to speak with you.
[05:15] Minchester
    Go on over there.
[05:20] Elise
    Juliane.
[05:22] Elise
    All right.
[05:24] Elise
    But if you start feeling ill, please
    tell someone as soon as possible.
[05:29] Minchester
    I will.
[05:30] Elise
    Then, if you will excuse me.
[05:38] Vent
    Your Majesty.
[05:40] Vent
    Crown Prince Linden.
[05:42] Linden
    Father, I've brought another
    glass if you'd like.
[05:45] Minchester
    Oh, thank you, Linden. I think I will.
[05:58] Linden
    You shouldn't drink it
    all at once like that.
[06:01] Minchester
    It doesn't matter. Today is a good day.
[06:04] Minchester
    Now, one more glass.
[06:15] Vent
    Your Majesty?
[06:16] Minchester
    M-My chest...
[06:24] Linden
    Father!
[06:28] Linden
    Father! Father!
[06:30] Vent
    Your Majesty...
[06:31] Elise
    Hurry! Call Viscount Ven here!
[06:34] Elise
    Your Majesty!
[06:39] Elise; internal
    There isn't a pulse.
[06:41] Elise; internal
    He hasn't simply fainted.
    This is a heart attack!
[06:44] Ven
    What's happened?
[06:47] Elise
    He's had a heart attack!
[06:49] Elise
    Viscount Ven, please begin administering
    His Majesty a cardiotonic agent right away!
[06:54] Elise
    Continue at four minute intervals!
[06:56] Ven
    All right.
[07:02] Elise; internal
    Please, Your Majesty...
[07:04] Elise; internal
    Come back! Please!
[07:14] Elise
    His pulse is back!
[07:18] guest 1
    I'm so glad.
[07:19] guest 2
    Oh, Your Majesty...
[07:21] Elise
    His heart attack has only just happened,
    so we can't rest easy just yet.
[07:25] Elise
    Please continue to monitor
    his condition closely.
[07:28] assistant 2
    Yes, miss.
[07:29] Ven
    Systolic blood pressure, 70.
    Pulse rate, 40. Breaths, 20.
[07:35] Elise; internal
    Is he in severe shock?
[07:37] Ven
    Take him to Imperial Cross Hospital!
[07:40] assistant 1
    Yes, sir!
[07:44] Elise
    Continue to monitor his pulse on the way.
[07:47] Elise
    If his pulse rate should drop,
    please say something right away.
[07:50] assistant 1
    Understood.
[07:52] guest 1
    This has become rather dire.
[07:54] guest 2
    They said it was a heart attack.
[07:56] guest 4
    Will he be able to recover?
[07:59] guest 3
    More importantly, why did
    it happen so suddenly?
[08:02] guest 5
    Did his chronic illness suddenly worsen?
[08:03] guest 6
    Or could there have been poison in his wine?
[08:18] soldier 5
    My sincerest apologies, but the
    situation does seem suspicious.
[08:23] soldier 5
    Will you come with us, please?
[08:26] Linden
    Yes.
[08:42] Elise; internal
    If we don't alleviate his
    state of shock quickly,
[08:45] Elise; internal
    it will cause negative aftereffects.
[08:49] Elise; internal
    Your Majesty...
[08:58] Elise; internal
    I don't ever want to feel like that again.
[09:02] Elise
    Please make sure he's getting
    enough transfusions.
[09:05] Elise
    And if his blood pressure drops or there's
    any change in his state of consciousness,
[09:10] Elise
    please contact me right away.
[09:12] nurse
    Yes, miss.
[09:15] Elise; internal
    He didn't look like he was feeling well,
[09:17] Elise; internal
    but diabetes isn't the sort of disease
    that causes a sudden heart attack.
[09:23] Elise; internal
    What could have caused this?
[09:37] noble faction 1
    Regarding the failed attempt
    to poison His Majesty...
[09:40] Ell
    Poison, you say? How can you say
    that when there's no proof?
[09:45] noble faction 1
    You're saying that it wasn't
    an attempted poisoning?
[09:49] Ell
    Of course it wasn't.
[09:50] noble faction 1
    Then why did he spit up blood and collapse
    right after drinking a celebratory cup?
[09:55] Ell
    Because of his chronic illness.
[09:57] Amsel
    His Majesty's illness isn't one which would
    cause him to clutch his chest and cough up blood.
[10:02] Amsel
    And yet, immediately after drinking the
    cup Crown Prince Linden handed him,
[10:06] Amsel
    he collapsed in that manner.
[10:08] Amsel
    It's only natural to think
     it was poison, isn't it?
[10:15] royal faction 1
    Lady Clorence said that, based on the
    symptoms, it was unlikely to be poison.
[10:20] royal faction 1
    She is an outstanding doctor.
[10:22] royal faction 1
    We can trust her words above all else.
[10:25] noble faction 2
    How can we trust her words?
[10:28] noble faction 2
    She is Crown Prince Linden's fiancée and
    a daughter of the House of Clorence.
[10:33] noble faction 2
    It's certain that her findings are
    affected by her own self-interest.
[10:38] noble faction 1
    And she isn't a doctor yet.
[10:40] noble faction 1
    She's just an apprentice, isn't she?
[10:42] noble faction 3
    She lacks the objectivity necessary
    for a precise diagnosis.
[10:47] Ell
    But there isn't any evidence that there
    was poison in the wine, is there?
[10:51] Amsel
    His Majesty's current
    condition is the proof.
[10:55] Ell
    His Majesty, Emperor of the
    Great Britia Empire, has collapsed.
[10:59] Ell
    And you mean to judge this tremendous
    incident simply on the visible circumstances?
[11:04] Ell
    Is that how the House of Child does things?
[11:12] Ell; internal
    At this rate, the crown prince really will
    lose his standing for murdering his father.
[11:17] Ell; internal
    I can't back down here.
[11:20] Ell
    According to the law of the empire,
    charges of murder and attempted murder
[11:24] Ell
    cannot be pursued based on
    circumstantial evidence alone!
[11:28] Ell
    If the crown prince is to be accused of
    a crime, there must be clear evidence!
[11:33] Amsel
    Nonetheless...
[11:34] Mikhail
    That's enough.
[11:36] Mikhail
    Marquis Ell,
[11:37] Mikhail
    who holds the ultimate judicial
    power in this nation?
[11:43] Ell
    His Majesty, the emperor.
[11:45] Mikhail
    Then, with my father unconscious and my
    older brother in custody, who holds it now?
[11:53] Ell
    You, Prince Mikhail.
[11:55] Mikhail
    That's right.
[11:56] Mikhail
    With regards to this attempted poisoning,
[11:59] Mikhail
    passing judgment here and now is difficult.
[12:02] Mikhail
    As all of you have said, there
    isn't clear evidence either way.
[12:10] Mikhail
    However, if no other cause comes
    to light during treatment,
[12:14] Mikhail
    my older brother will be
    accused of this crime.
[12:31] Amsel
    What did you want to discuss?
[12:33] noble faction 1
    Could this incident have been
    your doing, Marquis Amsel?
[12:37] Amsel
    The situation has continued
    to be unfavorable for us.
[12:42] Amsel
    I can't say that I never
    once thought about it,
[12:46] Amsel
    but it wasn't me.
[12:49] Amsel
    I do not know what caused
    His Majesty's heart attack.
[12:53] Amsel
    However, he has been stricken
    with illness for some time now.
[12:57] Amsel
    There's very little reason to
    anticipate his recovery, is there?
[12:59] noble faction 2
    Then, you're saying it's possible His Majesty
    may pass as soon as tomorrow?
[13:05] Amsel
    In order for Crown Prince Linden
    to prove his innocence,
[13:09] Amsel
    it will be necessary to show a
    clear cause for the heart attack.
[13:13] noble faction 1
    Regarding that,
[13:15] noble faction 1
    isn't it bad for us to allow Lady
    Clorence to treat His Majesty?
[13:19] Amsel
    It isn't an issue.
[13:20] Amsel
    Even for her, finding the cause of a sudden
    heart attack won't be easily done.
[13:27] Amsel
    However...
[13:28] Amsel
    this is a good opportunity.
[13:30] Amsel
    We will use it to force the
    crown prince from his position!
[13:35] Amsel
    I've already arranged for a
    newspaper to publish an article.
[13:39] Amsel
    Now we need only spread
    rumors among the commoners
[13:42] Amsel
    that Crown Prince Linden
    poisoned the emperor.
[13:46] Amsel
    Gossip is a terrifying thing.
[13:48] Amsel
    Even without definite proof,
[13:50] Amsel
    rumors beget more rumors, and they
    begin to feel like the truth.
[13:56] noble faction 1
    We will bring public opinion to our side.
    Is that what you mean?
[14:00] Amsel
    You will be contacted later. Wait for it.
[14:05] noble faction 1
    "Wait for it"? This is not
    the time to move slowly.
[14:10] noble faction 1
    That gentleman has a certain
    blitheness to him.
[14:12] noble faction 2
    He does. We, however...
[14:15] noble faction 1
    If it's for the greater cause,
    some sacrifices are unavoidable.
[14:30] Ell
    That meeting was absolutely preposterous.
[14:33] royal faction 1
    The whole thing was clearly planned.
[14:35] royal faction 2
    His Highness, assassinate His Majesty?
[14:38] royal faction 2
    The nobles' faction suggested
    that with no grounds at all!
[14:40] royal faction 3
    Prince Linden has no reason
     to kill His Majesty.
[14:45] Ell
    Where is Prince Linden now?
[14:47] royal faction 3
    He's been placed in the Hundreds House.
[14:50] Ell
    So, he's being treated as a criminal.
[14:52] royal faction 1
    If no cause other than poison is discovered,
[14:55] royal faction 1
    there will be no means of stopping
    the noble faction's scheme.
[14:58] royal faction 2
    But there isn't a single thing we can do.
[15:01] royal faction 1
    Is praying for Lady Clorence to create
    a miracle all that's left to us?
[15:09] Ell; internal
    Elise...
[15:18] Graham
    Systolic pressure, 85.
    Diastolic pressure, 40.
[15:21] Elise
    It's gotten a little better,
    but it's still low.
[15:25] Graham
    Yes. He should be receiving
    adequate infusions.
[15:29] Elise; internal
    What could be causing this?
[15:35] Elise; internal
    Not many illnesses can
    cause shock like this.
[15:39] Elise; internal
    It should be among those I know of.
[15:42] Elise; internal
    I considered the idea that the noble faction
    was framing Prince Linden by using poison,
[15:49] Elise; internal
    but Mil would never use such craven methods.
[15:52] Elise; internal
    Besides which...
[15:54] Elise; internal
    there have been no changes in his body
    which would clearly point to poison.
[15:59] Elise; internal
    And in the examination of his
    heart and x-rays of his lungs...
[16:02] Elise; internal
    I didn't see any abnormalities.
[16:09] Elise; internal
    This isn't a matter of simply
    lacking technical ability.
[16:12] Elise; internal
    I must be overlooking something!
[16:14] Elise; internal
    What could it be?
[16:16] Graham
    We can't continue like this.
[16:18] Elise
    Y-Yes, you're right! We should
    conduct a different examination!
[16:21] Graham
    No, I mean you, Rose.
[16:26] Elise
    Me?
[16:28] Graham
    You haven't slept a wink since yesterday.
[16:30] Graham
    You haven't eaten much either, have you?
[16:32] Elise
    Th-That's right.
[16:33] Elise
    But I'm all right!
[16:35] Elise
    Right now, every moment counts!
[16:37] Graham
    Until now, even when your
    passion burned hottest,
[16:41] Graham
    you always made logical, calm decisions,
[16:44] Graham
    and provided accurate,
    appropriate treatments.
[16:47] Graham
    But right now, you're different.
[16:49] Graham
    You're not maintaining your own health.
[16:52] Graham
    Do you think that, in that panicked state,
[16:54] Graham
    you can truly see your patient clearly?
[16:59] Graham
    Fortunately, His Majesty
    is stable at the moment.
[17:03] Graham
    I'm here, and so is Viscount Ven.
[17:06] Graham
    As long as there are no major changes,
    we are more than capable of handling this.
[17:11] Graham
    Why don't you go out and
    breathe a little fresh air?
[17:23] Elise; internal
    How pathetic.
[17:27] Elise; internal
    I declared so arrogantly that I'd
    become a doctor no matter what,
[17:32] Elise; internal
    but I can't even figure out how to save
    the life of someone so dear to me.
[17:39] boy
    There's an extra edition!
[17:42] boy
    Extra! Extra, extra!
[17:46] boy
    Extra!
[17:50] Elise
    "A planned heart attack"?
[17:53] Elise
    "The mastermind behind the assassination...
    was Crown Prince Linden"?
[17:56] woman 1
    Is this true?
[17:58] woman 2
    His Highness, the crown prince, wouldn't...
[18:00] man 1
    No, it's possible. Maybe he wanted
    to make the empire his own!
[18:04] man 2
    And I heard that he's being held
    in the Hundreds House right now.
[18:27] Linden; internal
    Father...
[18:30] soldier
    Your Highness, if you'll permit me,
[18:33] solider
    Lady Clorence is here.
[18:47] Elise; internal
    He looks a little gaunt.
[18:49] Linden
    Come over here.
[18:54] Linden
    How is my father's condition?
[18:58] Elise
    It still isn't very good.
[19:01] Linden
    I see.
[19:08] Linden
    I know that all of you are
    doing everything you can.
[19:13] Elise
    Your Highness...
[19:17] Linden
    Pathetic, isn't it?
[19:18] Elise
    What?
[19:20] Linden
    I have absolutely no power.
[19:26] Linden
    I didn't back then...
[19:31] Linden
    and I don't now.
[19:34] Linden
    Not being able to do a single
    thing... It's just pathetic.
[19:52] Elise
    Your Highness.
[19:54] Elise
    It's all right.
[19:56] Elise
    His Majesty will get better!
    I'll make sure of that!
[20:01] Linden
    Elise...
[20:17] Elise
    I'll do it again. I'll look into
    each possible cause one at a time.
[20:21] soldier
    Please wait, Lady Clorence!
[20:24] soldier
    We've just had a report.
[20:26] soldier
    His Majesty... His Majesty has
    fallen into severe shock again!
[20:30] Elise
    What?
[20:31] soldier
    We'll call a carriage for you immediately!
    Please wait just a moment!
[20:34] Elise
    O-Of course!
[20:38] Elise; internal
    Your Majesty...
[20:40] noble faction 1
    Lady Elise de Clorence?
[20:49] Elise; internal
    They're from the nobles' faction.
[20:55] noble faction 2
    We cannot allow you to go to His Majesty!
[20:59] noble faction 1
    You'll die here!
[21:09] noble faction 1
    After her!
[21:15] noble faction 1
    We can't let her get away!
[21:18] Elise; internal
    I can't let them find me. If they do, then...
[21:22] Elise; internal
    then why did I begin living
    this life as Elise again?
[21:28] Elise; internal
    At the very least, I have
    to save His Majesty.
[21:35] Elise; internal
    I absolutely can't die here!
[21:40] noble faction 1
    Where are that lot we hired?
[21:42] noble faction 2
    They're on their way here now!
