Bontemps is a little freaked: Th-this is highly irregular, your Majesty. But the IDGAF expression on the Queens face is priceless. Marchal is surprised but pleased: attracting the flies to the paper. You are both the angels at my shoulder, says Louis, which reminds Marchal of the Parthenays and Montcourt. Also I have to add SPOILER ALERT!!!! *IMAGERY KLAXON*, Next scene Marchal is riding furiously through the forest , no mood music, no sound, and he then bursts into Rohans rooms with guards, only to find the servant Marie on the floor, her wrist slashed with a knife. It was so good. Because the whole world gave you counsel. Nup. You went north, I went south and she went west and by the time they righted themselves we found our way down by the mill stream. Cassel leaves, then Montcourt walks away in the direction of Rohan who is discussing the Dauphins outing with a guard. Previously, we see Masson offer the same bottle offered to Louis when the king is sick (and Masson reels off a list of ingredients), and the bottle being secretively replaced, so Masson definitely did not know it was poisoned. But it is kept behind closed doors. But, this is my interpretation or thoughts based on the real life events. He weeps for the loss and I am sure he also weeps for the helplessness he must now feel, a man so powerful and commanding, who rules a country and its people a true King and yet, still unable to save her. Later on, we see the portrait back in Louiss chamber Im glad you like my reviews And I will most definitely continue on with reviewing S2. And so was she. Similarly, perforation of the gall bladder may have led to an excess of bile leaking into the peritoneum causing the corruption and gangrene reported by her doctors. Such an angry outpouring from Louis, however, would have been out of character and no one else reported that he said any such thing. Lord. Versailles 2015 - S01E10 - Bring the Garden Here (High MP4) (WEBM) (Aired: 14 Dec. 2015) Duchess Henriette becomes suddenly ill when she returns from a visit to her brother in England. Feel free to comment if any details are wrong. All of these things have the power to change a nation from within. Mainly wanted to know about Chevalier after last weeks tearful declaration of love. Point 4: This point actually supports my own. My greatest issue with Henriette is that she seems to lack any personality. Her husband is openly gay and has no problem flaunting it in the public. But Montespan kind of brushes it off with, Yes, I would do the same. She is hurt, nonetheless. hes a critic, but there is another who has been hidden before us. It can be quite shocking to us, but pretty much most children died before adulthood people mourned, mirrors were covered and a service held, but some didnt wait more than a few days before picking themselves up and going off to the next party or ball or soiree. When an autopsy was done (observed by 17 French doctors, two English physicians, the British ambassador and around 100 other onlookers) death was deemed to be from cholera morbus (gastroenteritis) caused by heated bile. The poor Chevalier, accused when he wasnt even there! Then he looks to Rohans hand tapping on the stone, decorated with a ring and the penny drops. Either way, she's dead now. Finally, did the male medicin drink the vial of poison accidentally or on purpose? Historically, poison was definitely suspected in Henriettes death and briefly, heres how it went down: It was 1670 and Henriette was pissed off she couldnt be with Louis at Versailles, and of course Monsieur knew this, so he ordered her to accompany him to Saint Cloud. Marchal, his shirt now stained with his wound, stumbles into the antechamber, to Bontemps and says: Listen to me. Enriched my enjoyment of the show, and got a bit more educated on the courts history as well . Marchal replies in that cool way of his: we eliminate the suspects. Colbert: eliminating the suspects doesnt mean the same to me as it does to you! Lol. First off, let me preface my response with the qualifier that I know very little about the historical figures on which these characters are based. poison, death and departures Versailles episode 10. Marchal picks up the dropped knife and lunges and he and Montcourt trade a few blows, with Marchal blocking then delivering a punch. And silently walks to the window. In perfect sync. Philippe strides in slow-mo through the corridors, arms swinging, hair bouncing, coat swaying and with a tight, determined expression on his face. Anyways, he says: we cannot be seen together anymore. Philippe was the one in strident dissent! Lot of time on my hands at the momentLULZ. What a pain! However, Madeleine de Foix, Gaston's mother, defends her son at the salon, but when facing banishment, she stabs Fabien, almost killing him. We learn that she has loved Louis since they were children. I was merely pointing out how such treatment of his wife would hardly help warm her feelings towards him. Henriette answered Montagu with a shrug: she did not know. They fear she might have been poisoned, so King Louis XIV shuts all access To Versailles. And Louis is left in the salon, framed by the door, the guards, and looking incredibly vulnerable and alone. Henriette wanted to go!). To bring them over to us. She had always been painfully thin and Louis once tactlessly referred to her as the bones of the Holy Innocents. but it is later, after they already speak with the guards in the background. His grip tightens on the poker, even as Montcourt looks actually shocked at that accusation. Bontemps says: protocol demands that if the air is impure and if you are at risk, you must leave immediately. (this is true) Marchal strides in to take command. Its really sad, she could have been a great queen with Louis (he might not be faithful to her, but they will have live better than now), but the turns of fate, made her his brothers wife instead. Suffering from digestive problems, she lived on a diet consisting primarily of milk. I could never love you more. Still, Louis suspicions had been aroused and he ordered an autopsy, which was performed by French doctors and witnessed by others sent from England. Fashion. A page for describing Characters: Versailles. Claudine and Philippe converse, with Claudine saying she feels they are not through the worst. Slavery was also an accepted practice of the day. Anne, Hi Jules haha that last message should have ended (I agree with you on all POINTS) not pints . I was more appalled at Louis seeming lack of concern for his brothers life. I think Philippe will always blame Louis for Henriette's death, and I can't see when they'll ever be reconciled again. Then Montcourt, the sly little worm, implies that Marchal will cop shit if Henriette dies and no culprit is found, and that Marchals judgement is lacking due to the whole de Clermont thing. It is not clear in the show. How can people not see Rohans calculating glances, his sly little looks? Its just that his anger and upset (and yes, jealousy I think) affects him so much, because its just another way for his brother to control and belittle him, make him less. Romantic wouldnt work, but she could become a protge of his. It is my experience that it is only those closest to a man that can inflict the greatest pain. And suddenly Philippe is the calm one, says gently, brother and the look on his face, as the tears trickle gently down his cheeks the quiet sadness as Louis stares at him, then his realisation that this is it. Now, if she had been his second cousin, and never saw each other until she married his brother, then I can maybe see them having an affair. They grew up knowing what their duty was as prince and princess. He sees Louis. You said everything that should have been pointed out a long time ago, with counterpoints and parallels that shone a light on some arguments and favoritism that , within the context of the show not history, were just mind boggling. And c) to show the resentment Philippe has for his wife, a woman whom he has to share with his brother, and he cannot do a damn thing about it. Of course, nothing happened and the doctors said colic but nine hours later, she was dead. He rolls in bed, his cheek on a bloodied pillow, and suddenly wakes, realises what it is and follows the trail to Louis bedchamber. Women were not allowed to practice medicine at that time and her father clearly disapproves, particularly as she grows more skilled and knowledgable than him. We see a lovely shot of Versailles outside, then cut to the Kings bedchamber, where the flowers and hedges are neatly arranged around to the bed. The flowers theyre singing. and she is gone. Two steps behind him, as protocol dictates, is the Chevalier. She is powerless. Today, speculation has attributed Henriettes death to intestinal blockage, ectopic pregnancy or tuberculosis affecting the peritoneum. So Louis settles into sleep. Philippe weeps. Protocol demands that he stays, Philippe says tightly. Is it any wonder she couldnt work up any concern over the possibility that her rapist might die in battle? UGH D:. Just airing in the U.S. and Im having surgery Friday so I dont know if Ill catch it. Sorry to jar you There are just some things I couldnt overlook, and I admit I was looking at Henriettes character so closely, to see if the screenwriters would sweeten her up from her historical figure. You did this to her. Louis looks shocked: Brother. Philippe will have none of it: We warned you. The fact that she could feel anything at all for him (beyond disgust) by the end surprises me. Is Philippe a victim? Totally inappropriate time to mention it. Such emotion. He certainly is darker, more angry and violent than he was in real life. We now see Philippe, so resigned, with tears down his cheeks, then Louis with a no, this is NOT happening. look on his face, eyes still dry. Anne. I look forward to reading your reviews on the next series, when it comes out. *That should have read historical figures not historical characters! Your loyalty can lie with Philippe while still acknowledging that Henriette is also a victim and not the villain (the real villain here is Louis). We see this SO MANY TIMES it becomes frustrating and sad. I just binge-watched all 2 seasons and now painfully waits for each episode of Season 3 to come out. Queen Marie-Thrse noted that everyone was talking about Henriettes death and the manner of it. All I could find were negative. Yet even on her deathbed, she reaches for Louiss hand first. I will speak to whomever I like. Louvois: I know this is true. Except, when hes really angry and he rapes her. My apartment has no pisspot and I do hate to urinate in the stairwells. The Chevalier: Never stopped you before. (teeheehee) They are interrupted by the Duc de Cassel (who is looking even rougher and more filthy than usual. Yet another possibility is that she had a duodenal ulcer which burst, leading to peritonitis. My sources tell me that sadly, we will have to wait until March 2017 (Yes, NEXT YEAR!!!) THIS. It is so interesting to watch, given a discussion I had on Twitter earlier with some fellow fans. What does she say? However, the court (and her brother, Charles II) was told she died of natural causes so he could hardly behead anyone for murder after that. It is clear these two have a long relationship and are not allowing a small (read: large) thing as marriage get in the way. In summary, of the four people involved in this sad businessLouis, Philippe, the Chevalier and HenrietteHenriette is the most powerless, the one with the least choice in anything. <3 <3 I love the outfit on the fashion doll that we see when Philippe and Lorraine flounce into the salon full of cloth and trinkets, and later we see that same coat on Philippe as they stroll the gardens :), Your email address will not be published. Ive said this before in comments. He did it with Prince Annaba, with Philippe and the Chevalier, with Philippe in the bath whether its just him thinking hey, Im the King, I can do whatever TF I want or some other deep need to catch people unawares, I do not know).
