♪ Oh way, oh way, oh ♪
In the year 1301,
Italy was still only an idea.
♪ Oh way, oh way, oh... ♪
The most powerful families
ruled their cities as self-governed states.
♪ Oh way, oh way, oh... ♪
As the battle for control raged
between the royals and the tyrannical new Pope
seeking to seize it all...
♪ Oh way, oh way, oh... ♪
...in fair Verona, the conflict had already arrived,
with the royals' Prince Escalus
sent to choose which family to align with
against the Pope's coming assault.
The Montagues, with an eldest son and heir
already rebelling against the future being demanded of him,
or the Capulets, with a sole daughter
as their only promise for the future,
called back from years away at school
for a secret alliance
she couldn't possibly have expected.
Two families on a path towards war.
Two star-crossed lovers
caught in the tragedy
that would take their lives.
♪ Oh way, oh... ♪
That was the past that precedes our tale.
But if these are
to be my final words,
then let them at least be the truth.
For we all share the guilt for the real cause
of the death of these two young hearts,
who accidentally and far too innocently
simply fell in love.
Seems you've done what no other could, Friar.
You've brought Capulet and Montague together.
Yes.
Then let that be my history,
for Romeo of Montague and Juliet of Capulet,
these are the pages that will tell
how their story ended here tonight.
And it shall be so written.
And from your hand,
may history forever read it so,
the tragedy of Juliet and her Romeo.
Romeo? Where the hell are thou, Romeo?
How are you?
Uh, cutting it a little close there, aren't you?
All's well that ends well.
- Uh, no, not usually. - Oh.
As you should well know, cousin.
-Romeo. - My friend.
A new one from Dante?
- Thank you, Rodrigo. -Come on, Romeo.

- Ah-ho, well, finally. - Mercutio.
Finally, I see some friendly faces. Brother.
- Come sit. - It's nice to see you.
What do you say we just go and get a drink instead?
- Oh, doesn't that sound lovely? - They look scared.
They don't look scared.
They look a little scared.
Oh, look at the Capulet.
He's like a walking wall.
Brother, you didn't tell your father
that I was fighting in your stead, did you?
Thought he'd enjoy the surprise.
No, you didn't.
Come on.
They're just games, Mercutio.
No, they're not.
- Be cool. Be cool. -Romeo.
Too much of a coward to fight me yourself, Montague?
Good to see you, too, Tybalt.
Oh, I was so looking forward to it.
Hey!
-Come on! -I said, "Be cool."
This is cool! We're having a great time!
My cloak.
-Lay off, lay off. -My cloak.
Just remember his weak left hand.
-For the Capulets. -Capulets!
-Montagues! -Montagues!
Come on.
- You see that? - Yeah!
We're here, my lady.
Lady Juliet.
You're just leaving?
Tell me if it gets interesting.
Romeo.
The fight is back here.
They are beautiful, sir.
And rare.
Works this precious do not appear often, my lady.
Which you, no doubt, told your last customer
and will surely tell your next.
Romeo.
Are you okay?
Uh, yeah.
Don't I look okay?
Well, you are under assault.
Yeah, uh, I'll take care of you later.
- Mm. - Uh...
Did he really hit you so hard you've lost all your words?
No, it-it's just, uh,
I don't know you, and I know everyone.
How can I not know you?
Let me help you. You dropped your book.
You're not interested in watching the match?
Two boys swinging their swords at one another?
I'm okay.
You read Dante Alighieri.
I heard he was writing about his, uh, exile from the Church.
They, uh, smuggle copies into our school
whenever they make their way to France.
- You go to school in France? - I do.
What are you doing in Verona?
Just visiting?
Oh, was that a question?
No, no, that was an answer
with a clever inflection at the end, I guess.
You keep it until you get back to France.
Are either one of you actually gonna buy something from me?
Sadly, I have no money.
I gave my last gold to the man
who attacked me with the pillows.
Quite the pair we make, eh?
Two fools without fortune.
- You sure I don't know you? -Where is she?
- Oh. - Um, I have to go.
ROMEO What, now? To where?
Uh, wherever it is I should be next, I suppose.
An adventure. I like adventures.
I love adventures, too.
It's just, I-I don't know your name.
Then it's a mystery and an adventure,
something for each of us.
I'll let you know how it ends.
Herbs to ease your nerves, young Montague?
You look like you could use some.
I thought you promised Friar
you'd stop practicing your dark arts.
Science is neither dark nor art.
It's just nature.
And these are just herbs, I swear,
but they will make you dream.
Add it to my tab.
Your tab is getting rather full, Master Montague.
Look at you.
- Juliet. - Oh.
I've missed you, too, Daddy.
Go and see your mother.
Juliet, all of Verona will now raise their eyes to you.

Hey! Hey!
There's to be an exhibition match.
Blood's what they came for.
And blood's what they've got.
Did you at least win?
Juliet.
Look who's no longer
the little girl who left us to see the world.
Look who's no longer the young boy
play-fighting in the stables.
You play-fight on larger fields now, cousin.
We really did miss you.
Am I to wait until morning?
It's good to be home, isn't it?
Coming, Mother.
So is the new year.
Talk later?
I want to hear everything.
Might a friend join you in your search
for the bottom of that bottle?
Yeah, what bottle?
This is a house of God.
Did you offer him a drink, then?
A toast?
Yeah, how about to blindness?
Play-fighting for the prince today?
You think we had a choice?
Montagues and Capulets have been
drawing swords since before you were born,
but this time it is different.
Maybe.
But nothing I do will make a difference.
Yeah, are you trying to fool you or me?
You are the heir to Montague, and in the end,
this end will be of your making,
whether you like it or not.
And I, for one, would have it in no better hands than yours.
Oh, you're in a happy mood.
What aren't you telling me?
Well...
I did meet a girl today.
You meet a girl every day.
No, no, no.
Not like this one.
No, it was...
...her smile.
Oh.
You're really back.
I can't believe it's really you.
I thought I'd never see you again.
It all seems smaller.
Mm, well, I think it was we who were smaller.
You shouldn't have come back.
I have a thing for you.
I've missed you and envied you,
but I think I smiled most of all knowing
that you were so far from here.
- Um... - There's a whole story.
But I mean it, Juliet, you should have never come back.
And yet...
here I am, so...
...what are you to do with me?
You two look up to no good.
Oh, but it's the only look I have.
Have you really not been told why I've been called back?
All will be clear in time.
I'm sure.
Come, let's get you settled.
Tonight.
She seems happy-- Juliet.
Well, she's home, finally.
Why wouldn't she be happy?
This alliance we're making,
is it really necessary what you're planning?
We've always held our own before.
Things have never been this way before.
It's either Rome or the Pope.
What we do here now
is the future of Verona.
Are you well?
- Yes, sir. - Good man.
I trust you enjoyed the games tonight, Your Highness?
Not as much as I suspect you and Lord Capulet
enjoyed presenting them.
I asked for this meeting to pledge my house to Rome.
An oath of good faith.
Well, should Rome finally choose to seize Verona for the Crown,
then as all others across the empire have fallen,
so will you fall with them.
With or without your faith or your pledge.
Prince who speaks his truth.
Then let me mirror it with my own,
should Rome truly cast her eyes on us,
to join a fight against Pope Boniface.
You'd be well served to have a loyal representative here.
And you'd be our loyal law of Verona?
That I would.
Lord Capulet is off
maneuvering, manipulating, plotting.
With Lord Paris?
As you certainly well knew, Lord Bernardo.
If Rome's to win this war, it needs faithful warriors.
Not diplomats.
And yet you couldn't even marshal your own son
to fight for your side today.
He was raised without the weight of war.
The next time you see him, trust me, he'll be different.
You were wrong about him. He's more primal than proud.
Time will tell.
He's not wrong about the Capulets and the Montagues.
No, I swear, I swear.
I was visited by a dream,
and that dream was...
...that I won!
Queen ma'am looking lovely as usual, darling.
You'll clean yourselves up before entering my house.
Your house? My dear Vesante,
I thought your house was our home.
Come to be healed, have you?
And you, master of it all,
did we at least win today?
Well... you'd have to ask the prince.
He's the only audience who mattered.
And? Did you?
Did you ask the prince?
He seemed busy.
Busy.
Mercutio, are those for Veronica, then?
Oh, no, this one is for Veronica.
She just has to take it off me first.
No, these I have purchased so that all of you can do
what you like with them.
Now...
one of our members tonight
seems a bit more quiet than usual.
-Out. - Out.
And he wasn't at my exhibition match, either.
- Out! - Out!
Where were you tonight, brother?
MERCUTIO, VESANTE, APOTHECARY: Mm-hmm?
- No. - Oh, he's in love.
- He's in love! - No, I'm not...
Yes, he is. Yes, he is.
The smiles are knowing, and the dimples are growing.
Tell us who she is, brother.
Oh, come on. What's in a name?
Well, more than I care to share with you.
- What about with me? - Especially you.
Oh!
Seems like all the more mystery to solve, then, to me.
And would you rather stay here and solve his
or come upstairs and unravel mine?
Ooh.
You fought well today, Mercutio.
Well, as I said,
one of us had to.
Now, this next round...
is on me, everybody!

Tell me, dear apothecary,
what did you make of today?
I believe that Rome and the Church
now cast their eyes toward our beautiful Verona.
And now I fear that neither will turn away this time.
You sneak out here every night?
Yeah, well, you got to escape and see the real world.
Good evening, ladies.
Thank you, sir.

Nothing-- there'll be nothing left.
Not just the comfort of these walls we'll lose.

What? Hey, it's me.
Sorry.
Your lip.
It was your father?
Listen, I know I'm only your younger cousin,
but I could also be your friend.
You can trust me.
Well, look who blessed our path.
And without his normal entourage to shield him.
Haven't you had enough fighting for today, Tybalt?
Oh, not enough to keep me from you, Montague.
Come, let us play that match you hid from today
and prove which family should be left standing.
I had no reason to fight you then.
This is not the night to pick one with me.
Oh, whoa, whoa, hey!
What is this?
Oh, such a shame to see.
And three against one and a half-- Leopold.
I could've taken them.
These are such unfair odds.
Oh, for the poor Capulets, perhaps.
You don't want this fight.
And yet this fight is what we have.
- Play on. - Whoa! Whoa! Hey!
Leopold, don't you bite me.
Romeo, behind you!
Did you just bite my thumb?
Stop it!
Montagues! Let's go!
Oi, watch it!
Are you okay?
- Get him! -Tybalt, this way!
Quick, quick, quick, quick!
They're up ahead!
- Stop them! - Stop! Stop!
Get in!
They're up ahead!
They're at the back there!
Help me out.
He went down there.
They're at the back there!
- Stop right there! - You!
It's okay, I think you can loosen up your lips now.
I'm, uh, not sure what to say.
You can tell me I'm a good kisser.
You're a great kisser, actually.
Oh.
I don't know why I just said that.
The truth shall set you free.
Not usually, no.
Did you learn that in France?
I just need to stop talking.
I thought I lost you.
Wait, you know him?
Oh, you idiot. She's the girl, huh?
Perhaps we should delay these interrogations for later.

If you...
Yeah.
Oh.
I loosened it for you.
This is equally curious.
I have to ask him about that, too.
We're above the ancient catacombs.
Do you trust me?
Not yet.
Get your own.
Shoot.
How'd you know all this was down here?
I've been surveying these salt mines
since I was old enough to walk.
My family owns half of them.
Yeah?
And the other half?
What's down there?
Leads outside the city walls.
An escape.
That's good to know.
Come on. It's this way.
Friar?
You were fighting with them.
The Montagues.
Against the Capulets.
Whom you were hiding from.
Though now at least I know why you seem so...
Familiar?
Daughter of Capulet.
But no longer the...
young girl I once saw playing in the river
as if it were her own ocean.
And you...
...no longer the boy I once saw scaling the city walls
as if the whole world could be yours.
I don't remember me.
Not the way you do.
Maybe you choose not to.
And you?
Yeah.
Maybe I do, too.
It's so strange, isn't it?
We've both played the opposites of the same part, but...
never really spoken before today.
Strangers for a... a lifetime.
Until now.
I suppose I should properly introduce myself.
- I'm... - Romeo.
Over here!
-Hurry. We're closed! - Are you all right in there?
All clear in here!
Check across the square!
Come back after confession.
Sorry, Your Eminence.
- To the square! Go! - Run! Quick, quick!
Ow.
Why have you come back
after all these years?
Do your parents tell you all their plans for you?
Nor would I listen if they tried.
You're cut... from the door.
I guess my blood's now on your hands.
Saint Gabriel in heaven defend us.
It's really not what it seems.
Uh...
Okay, maybe... maybe it is what it seems.
If either of your fathers found you here,
they'd burn the church to the ground
and care not what God thought of it.
She's the girl.
The one with the smile.
That was between us, Friar.
He told you about my smile? You told him you like my smile?
We're getting you home.
- Oh, God, save us. - And me?
God has far more words for you than we can deal with now.
I need to find safer passage.
Well, I'll keep her here until you do.
And we won't move until you return. We swear.
His poison has gotten to you already.
Hmm. Is poison what this is?
Now, you stay here.
I need to find the horses.
Sit.
A true gentleman on top of all.
Give me your hand.
Let me heal it for you.
And a surgeon, too.
That's very good.
Yes.
What?
Your eyes.
I've never seen a look like that at me before.
Calm yourself. Getting a little carried away, aren't you?
Carried to where?
From where?
Every thought before now was just an idea.
Really?
Well, I can't tell if your poetry is prose.
Poetry it is, then.
Are you kidding me?
The sunlight will reveal this treason.
It was just a kiss, Friar.
A Montague and a Capulet?
It would set the world on fire.
When can I see you again, Lady Capulet?
Call me Juliet.
We'll leave the names that haunt us out of it, yeah?

Welcome back, Friar.
Did you not see the look in her eyes?
She's changed.
Oh, not so very much.
In every way that matters.
It takes a mother to know.
Can we not let her enjoy her return just for one moment
before we have to tear it all away from her again?
At her own peril, husband.
And remember it was I who said it.
Your strongest herbs, good apothecary,
to calm my nerves.
It's been a night.
You seem rattled, dear Friar.
Well, not as rattled as them.
Yes.
Observe.
Ah, yes.
Ah.
That's witchcraft.
You're playing with life.
And death, which is the point of medicine, isn't it?
To extend life over death?
You mean they're not really dead?
It's a trick?
Well, I've slowed their hearts to as close as if it were
with this one.
Yes, and then?
And then an antidote to renew their heart when ready.
Could you imagine what it would do
for those whose hearts were failing them?
Oh, no, no.
That is a dark art, to force nature's hand.
No, not forcing. No, I'm-I'm holding.
I'm holding it.
Sit.
- I will... - What?
...make you those herbs to calm your nerve.

You didn't go alone, Rosaline.
How can I protect you if you keep secrets from me?
And how can I reveal myself
to someone who doesn't even trust himself?
Lord Capulet has to know I'm by his side.
Rosaline.
Drafting a new sermon, Friar?
It is our written history.
Drafted by former friars far greater than me.
Shall I take your confession?
You assume I've sins to confess?
You have the ear of both Montague and Capulet.
Ah.
I have simply come for more honest counsel.
Do you believe there can ever be true peace?
- It's not a trick question. - But it is a trick answer.
If the stars could be aligned, if hearts could mend minds.
But y-yes, for the first time,
I think I may see a path.
Is that a riddle hidden in your parchment there somewhere?
Maybe a riddle hidden in plain sight all along.
But I beg you for more time
before telling you more.
I only hope there is time to give, Friar.
Your Verona seems so very fragile now.
Where are you off to?
To not waste any more time with the likes of you.
As memory serves, you were just wasting your time
enjoying my likes very much.
Well, don't expect me to write sonnets about it.
"Oh, I've just met the most obnoxious boy,
"and he keeps making terrible jokes,
and he's a very good kisser."
Come on.
You are still a Montague, adopted name or not.
And one day you'll be lost to us.
Married off to a proper girl.
Tell me I'm wrong.
Yeah.
Nurse says you have news?
Were your manners lost on your travels
along with your sense of time?
I had good dreams, Mother.
Thanks for asking.
Well, we're having guests tonight.
A grand ball to celebrate your return.
Guests?
Well, I don't think I'm ready for guests quite yet.
You've had six years to be ready.
- I just mean that I... - I know what you mean.
I was you once.
Listen to me, you'll pick out your finest dress,
and you will paint your face with whatever mask
you need to hide behind.
But you will be the Capulet you've been raised to be.
Darling.
Juliet.

You know, it's always a wonder to me.
You have all these servants at your command,
and yet here you are doing the hard labor.
Ah, it's all too easily forgotten,
the feeling of hard work with your own hands.
Something you've never lost.
If only you could steer my son.
It's not an easy place at your side for Romeo.
Nor was mine by my father's, yet there I stood.
War's coming, Mercutio.
True blood will be spilled.
The important question is: Who bleeds first?
Capulet plans his big move tonight.
Tonight, sir?
The grand ball and an announcement.
He'll trade his heart for an army.
Paris.
Sir, how do you know this?
'Cause it's exactly what I would do if I had the chance.
You'll go for me, see if I'm right.
You want me to go to the Capulets?
- Sir, I... - It's a masquerade.
You'll go in a mask. They'll be none the wiser.
If I'm right, we strike first.
All our fortunes rest in you now, Mercutio.
It's you alone that I trust.
It's what you've always wanted, isn't it?
Isn't it?
Be worthy of that trust.
Whoa. Good boy.
How'd you know I was out here?
Where else would you be going?
Your father spoke to me.
About her?
About you.
Your reaction just now worries me even more.
Look, Romeo, whatever plot you're planning,
- you need... - I have no plot.
My father plays you, Mercutio.
Maybe.
But when my mother died
and he took me in as one of his own,
not just by name but by virtue,
that speaks of the man.
With respect,
you never had to answer the demands of your own father.
With respect,
my father's thoughts were so consumed by drink
that he had no time for demands.
You never speak of him.
Since boys, we've known each other's every word,
but your life before now has been a grander secret
- than I've ever kept. - Yes, but my secrets
don't send swordsmen to our streets.
They don't put you, Romeo, into
the very heart of our sworn enemy.
She's not our enemy.
Of course she is.
Father's right about one thing.
This battle is coming.
Not if I can bind what's always divided us.
Blood?
Well, that's what's divided us.
Can you bind that?
And tonight they plot for more.
What? Haven't you heard? Oh, there'll be a grand ball
to celebrate their alliance with Lord Paris against us.
That's awfully friendly, isn't it?
If that happens, Romeo,
they will outnumber you three to one.
And your father needs every Montague by his side,
including his true son.
And as much as you might cringe at the hearing of it now,
you'll never disown your own name.
What's in a name, Mercutio?
Everything.
God, just take the...
Take the upper path.
There'll be less familiar faces to recognize you there.
What?
You're my truest friend.
Whatever separate paths we're forced to take now.
Oh, no, I'm your brother,
and I always will be,
different paths and parents or not.
What's in a name, indeed?
All right, go.
Come on.
We never leave a lady waiting.
Romeo.
Montague.
It's a good name.
Yours isn't that bad, either.
Are you insane?
They'll-they'll kill you if they find you.
Then lower your voice and climb down to meet me.
I-I can't leave my party.
It's my party in my honor.
Well, then I'll have you back in time to be honored. I...
I promise.
To go where?
More dreams of climbing walls that divide us?
No, no more dreams.
I-I'm asking you, Juliet...
To what?
To turn our prose into poetry.
A Montague and a Capulet?
They're just names.
What are you doing? What are you doing? Stop it.

Oh.

We look to bind our hearts.
The world can make of it what it will.
Please, my friend, will you help us?
And you'd both defy your own family and fate?
Who's to say that this isn't our fate?
Hear our wedding vows.
You'll find no defiance.
We can be the reflection of what Verona still can become.
Yes, through the most unexpected union of all.
Well, that will be a sight for Rome to see.
Do you believe it can be?
I believe that history is not carved in stone,
nor is our future already written in these pages.
What I believe...
...is in the two of you.

Are you?
Yes.

Yes, I have to go.

Well, save me a dance at least?
Mm, we'll see.
What if the Friar's wrong about the prince?
Then we'll leave these walls forever.
I do have another plan.
If it comes to that.
But let it not come to that.
It's you and me now, forever.
Your guests have arrived.
And your face is flushed.

Your Lord Paris,
as from this night on, you will forever be my lady.
You really don't know.
Juliet, we're to be married tomorrow.
It's been decided.
Not by me.
Juliet!
Juliet, sweetheart, please.

You cannot just walk away like that.

What is that look in your eye?
The rumors and cries are all confirming the same.
A spy fell from the top of the Capulet tower
and was lost to the water's rage.
And a Montague sword found in their wake.
- And Romeo is not here. - Don't do this.
He jumped because he had no choice.
- We left him there. - We couldn't have known!
We just left him!
Now, where's Tybalt?
He's on his way into Verona.
It is not the night to fight, Mercutio!
Benvolio, what about this don't you understand?
The fight's already here!
We can beat them by sneaking across the river.

Please forgive me.

The prince spared his life, Juliet...
...so long as he never returns to this one.
Then it's a death sentence still.
He killed Tybalt, Juliet.
Has he so blinded you
you can't even mourn your own loss?
I do not defend him blindly.
Tybalt killed his brother first.
If all were reversed...
It would still not right the world.

Lightning, strike.
Lord, please tell me what's right.
Do I follow my heart or no?
'Cause I can't make up my mind.
Looking for answers, Lord.
Come, give me a sign.
Talk to me. Now.
- Romeo's going to escape! - Yeah, it's all right, boy!
- Easy! - I delivered the message
to Mantua, and I shouldn't have read it, but I did, Friar.
And I broke his trust.
Mercutio.
Will you take my confession?
I believe I just did.
Eh?
I call it hot chocolate, huh?
You don't ever knock.
I didn't know you had visitors.
Tiny, tiny little visitors.
It's okay.
You're smuggling them out of Italy?
You think the Pope is tough on the royals?
You should see what my people have to go through.
What? You're Jewish?
L'chaim.
And that's how you're planning
to smuggle them to safety-- the families.
You've created a potion
to make them appear dead.
You can't just smuggle Romeo and Juliet out.
Their families would never stop looking for them.
Only if there was still someone to be searching for.
Throughout history, history has only been told
by the pen of the Church.
And I, my dear, dear apothecary, am the Church.
Who would ever doubt the word of God?
Pretty sure you doubt it with every word you speak.
Then I pay you for my own sins
and absolve you of all of your own.
The noble Friar breaks all of his commandments tonight.
Now, they must take the antidote
before the moon starts to fall to the new day,
or else they will never awaken again.
Romeo.
A heavy message it must be for you to ride all this way
- to find me. - The Friar sent me, Romeo.
You come to serve my death warrant?
No.
What death?
Your life was spared.
Listen, it won't take long for the Capulets to track you here.
They must believe you've abandoned her.
I'd rather die than live without her.
You don't have to.
We have a plan.
What do you pray for...
...from a God who shows no care to listen?
For an end, my lady.
With a prayer that he is listening.
Even if we can't understand his silence.
And you pray for another life?
Yes.
That's exactly what I pray for.
A potion to numb my pain?
An escape from your pain.
If it works, drink this potion,
and like a death you'll lie.
And while your Capulets mourn,
I'll send the good Benvolio to bring your Romeo to wake you.
With this one.
And away you both steal free and forever,
never to return
to reveal the truth of your empty tombs.
And Romeo knows your plan?
He just waits for word that you do.
But there is a chance that this is a sleep
from which you may never wake.
Who brings me the antidote?
I will walk you through it.
Then go, dear friend,
and ensure that our Romeo knows
that tonight I drink to him.
I must speak to Benvolio.
- Friar? Friar. - Where's Benvolio?
Please, Friar.
You can't be here, Friar. Please.
Where's my son?
- Where have you hidden him? -Actually,
it's not for me to say, my lord.
We'll see about that.
My lord.

From now...

Hyah! Hyah! Hyah!
Lord Paris is here.
Fetch Juliet.
We're to church, my lady.
My lady.
Oh, heaven help us.
- What have you heard? - Let us get you out of here.
What have you heard?
Get my cloak.
It's the worst news of all, Friar.
What?
His dear Juliet is dead.
I must speak to Benvolio.
It's too late for that, Friar.
Benvolio is already off to Mantua
to tell Romeo what's lost.
He can't.
I must speak to Benvolio first.
Romeo must know that the message is mine,
or he'll believe we failed.
Failed what, Friar?
Tommaso, the antidote shattered.
The last of it.
Now there's no way for either of them
to ever come back to us.
Romeo.
A friendlier face there couldn't be.
So let us drink and lie and pretend all's well.
What?
Tell me, cousin, what news?
It's okay. I know the truth.
She's gone, Romeo.
Taken poison to keep from being forced
to ever break her vows to yours.
Our gentle Friar has cursed you
carrying the news to me, Benvolio.
No, it-it wasn't Friar, Romeo.
When you spoke with the Friar and he asked you
to call me back to get her...
I didn't come to call you back
but to beg you to go forever and far from here.
Benvolio, but when you spoke to Friar, what did he
say to you about the plan?
There's no plan!
Romeo, the Friar's lost.
Since the night you fled.
Our Friar is gone.
Your Juliet is gone.
Juliet never got the message.
All is lost.
They will come for you next, Romeo.
- They won't have to. - You cannot return to Verona.
Verona's where she rests!
Wherever else would I go?
Look to my father when I'm gone, cousin.
Only his dark hand could've ever dimmed the light
of our bright Friar.
Hyah!
Romeo!
Whoa. Benvolio, where is he?
He's already on his way to the church.
Leopold, catch up!
He cannot drink the poison!
Hyah!
Hey! Hey!
Who goes there?
Who is it?
Who did it?
Romeo?
Romeo!

You stare and judge
and ask how it all came to this,
but if these are to be my final words,
then let them at least be the truth.
Here where I place ink to parchment
to confess.
We all share the guilt
for the real causes of the deaths of these young hearts,
who accidentally and far too innocently
simply fell in love.
Not innocently.
You coerced them into it.
And filled his head with a world he could never have.
It seems you've done what no other could, Friar.
You've brought Capulet and Montague together.
Then let that be my history.
Then it shall be so written.
And may God forgive you,
though I fear he'll not forgive this much lost.
Nurse, you too have played your part in this.
No. No.
-Yes. - No, I didn't!
- Please! Wait, please, no! -No!
Your cover for the good nurse does not make her innocent.
It just carves your own guilt with her.
I carved my own guilt long before.
May their deaths be quick and their bodies washed away
in the river's rush to cleanse this place
of all that's happened here.
Let them finally lay, at least in peace together.
And as for you,
my men wait outside to reclaim your swords,
and then you shall return to the castles you keep
to prepare them.
For what?
For our Roman soldiers,
arriving to claim Verona for the Crown.
Your story of Capulet and Montague,
this is where it finally comes to an end.
-The Romans are here! -Hey, you two.
- Yes, my lord? - Take her to the stronghold.
Keep her safe.
Go.
Boys, our story will end.
They all do.
But not today.
With me.
It's the Romans!
-Leave them to me. -Yes, sir.
Hold the line!
Yes. And you, too.
Good.
You are certain no one suspects?
No, all believe what we've laid out.
And the apothecary?
Has his own work to do far from here.
He will serve us well.
And him?
I believe he's on our side.
For Romeo of Montague and Juliet of Capulet,
these are the pages that will tell
how their story ended here tonight,
for you to place in the archives of history.
We just had to write it down.
And so from your hand,
may history forever read it so,
the tragedy of Juliet and her Romeo.
May God protect you both.
- He's just letting us go? - Come on.
What madness is this?
What's madness-- if you don't help me.
God, God.
Now, true apothecary,
to your work.
- We have a plan. - An escape.
What I believe is in the two of you.
Strangers for a lifetime.
Until now.
You can't just smuggle Romeo and Juliet out.
Their families would never stop looking for them.
Only if there was
still someone to be searching for.
Have I caught you at a bad time, Your Highness?
And that's how you're planning
to smuggle them to safety-- the families.
You've created a potion to make them appear dead.
The antidote shattered.
The last of it.
Romeo knows your plan?
He just waits for word that you do.
We'll stop tomorrow before it comes.
This isn't how our story ends, I promise you that.
And away you both steal free and forever,
never to return.
These are the pages that will tell
how their story ended here tonight.
And so from your hand,
may history forever read it so,
the tragedy of Juliet and her Romeo.
We just had to write it down.
I'll explain later.
Let's get the horses.
Where are we going?
Wait.
So, where to now?
Let them remember us well.
To unpathed waters?
And undreamed shores.
