I'm the Most Beautiful Count (2025) s01e10 Episode Script

Have you told Banjong yet?
Told him what?
That we’re a couple now.
Banjong,
I have something to tell you.
I don't…
Banjong!
Ahh!
Somdet's army is coming.
Everyone, take your posts
and follow the plan.
You must surrender.
If not, I'll have you all killed.
Didn't I tell you
to stay still?
Don't risk yourself. Is it that hard?
Fine. I'll let you
take care of my brother.
Do it properly.
I'll come back to inspect later.
No need.
I'll take better care than you would.
Worradej.
Could I have some water?
Thanks.
Eat a little more, okay?
Worradej.
Worradej, where are you?
I'm here to take you home.
Ever since my topknot was cut,
I’ve never bathed with another soul.
I feel kind of embarrassed.
Why are you embarrassed?
Don't be embarrassed.
You can't even see, can you?
If you can't see, no need to be shy.
It's perfectly warm.
I’ll wipe you down.
Wow.
No surprise
why Worradej is so in love with Banjong.
Glasses suit him well,
but he’s ten times hotter without them.
Look at him.
Small mouth, prominent nose,
sorrowful eyes.
What if I accidentally kissed him?
Wait.
What am I doing?
But look at his lips.
Wait.
What's wrong with me?
Why can't I hold myself back?
Wor, you witch,
are you possessing me?
But this is your body anyway.
Wait, Wor.
Don't come back into the body now.
What are you two doing?
Why is Banjong naked in front of you?
Well…
Calm down, Kosol.
I was just helping him bathe.
Why bathe him? Are you his mom?
He's grown up, not a kid anymore,
and you're still bathing him?
Banjong lost his glasses.
He can’t see well.
I just helped him. What's the harm?
He's not blind.
He’s just making excuses to touch you.
Hey.
He didn’t ask me to bathe him.
I volunteered.
Earlier, he even grabbed my hand
thinking it was the dipper.
Is that true, Banjong?
No wonder the dipper felt soft and pale.
Hey, stop right now, Kosol.
How could you hurt him like that?
Banjong is injured.
Besides, he can't see.
Show some compassion for others.
And stop being so needlessly jealous.
You two are in this state together.
How could I not be jealous?
I'm telling you,
Banjong can't see,
and I was only going to bathe him.
Fine.
You can't bathe yourself, can you?
What are you doing, Kosol?
Hey, Kosol!
- Stop it.
- I'm bathing you, Banjong, you sly one.
- Ow, my wound!
- Hey!
Have you lost your mind?
Are you satisfied now?
My wound.
- Go home.
- Let go.
I told you to let go.
Let go.
Please, go back.
I'll sleep here tonight.
Will you walk back, or must I carry you?
Hey, stop it.
Didn't I tell you?
You have no right to carry me
unless I allow it.
Think being big and strong
allows you to carry anyone anytime?
So you insist on staying here.
To let Banjong fawn all over you?
Think whatever you want.
I'm tired. I'm annoyed.
I’m done arguing with you.
- Wait.
- Hey.
Even if you hate what I did to Banjong,
I need you to know,
I did it because I love you.
Don’t justify violence with love.
Love is love.
But you have no right to use love
as an excuse to hurt others.
I don’t know
what you’ve been through
to become this way,
but for us humans,
knowing right from wrong
means choosing to change for the better.
It’s up to you
whether you will or not.
Moo Moo…
You were born fierce,
so other animals would fear you
and you'd survive this cruel world.
But let me ask you something.
If one day your lover
is taken by another tiger,
wouldn't you maul
its throat to get them back?
So, what did I do wrong
for being fierce?
It's because I want to protect my love.
But you're human, not a tiger.
Why are you here?
To watch someone heartbroken
end up pouring their heart out to a tiger.
- Ched.
- Hey.
Don't scold me.
I was bored,
so I asked Jade to stay a night.
I happened to overhear
you pouring your heart out to Moo Moo.
What did you just say?
We're human, not tigers, right?
Right.
Tigers,
when they fight over food or mates,
they'll use force to maul each other.
But we’re human. We can talk it out.
If you like or dislike something,
if you want or don’t want him
to do something,
you just have to say it.
But if saying it straight doesn’t work,
you shouldn’t force him.
Because once it’s forced,
you’ll never win his heart.
You’ve really grown up.
Come sit with me.
Uh…
You said we’re friends, right?
Yes, Your Majesty.
Uh…
Your Majesty.
What you just said
was so good, Your Majesty.
Like you’ve had
so much experience in love.
Uh…
Your Majesty.
Please don’t be offended, Your Majesty.
Have you ever been in love?
I’ve told you before,
and I asked you this question before too,
but you fell asleep first.
I’ve never been in love.
What I just said to Brother Kosol,
I read it all from books.
I’ve never been in love either, sire.
We’re true companions.
Even in matters of the heart,
we’re both still alone.
But you’re the King.
Finding a partner shouldn’t be hard.
Who would ever want to be with me?
I could search a lifetime
and still not find someone.
You will.
You’re someone who cares about others.
Anyone would want you in their life.
Me, on the other hand,
I’ve become nothing but trouble.
No one would want to stay with me.
But I enjoy being with you, Your Majesty.
It’s exciting.
I never get bored, Your Majesty.
Shall we make a promise?
If we grow old and still can’t find wives,
we’ll stay single and be friends forever.
Here.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Promise?
Yes, Your Majesty.
Friends.
Come up.
Why are you so tense?
Your wound should be dry now.
Anyway, I apologize for Kosol.
Don’t hold it against him.
I know him well.
I’ve suffered from him plenty.
He’s been like this forever.
But from now on, you need to fight back.
Don’t let him be the only one acting.
With what?
I’m no warrior.
Kosol’s strong like a wild bear,
while I’m just a puppy.
You really have that puppy energy.
But if Kosol bullies you again,
come tell me right away.
I’ll raise hell for you.
Worradej.
The world needs people like you.
People who speak out against wrong.
That’s why I like you.
I'm no better than anyone.
I just
can’t stand seeing injustice.
Go get some sleep.
I’ll go to bed soon too.
If you need anything tonight,
just call out for me.
Sweet dreams.
Worradej.
Can you sleep with me tonight?
Look at those eyes.
Should I just sleep
with Banjong for one night?
Wait, Wor.
Are you trying to control
my thoughts again?
If I sleep with Banjong tonight,
I'll surely succumb to temptation.
Stop. You have to stop,
and get out of my head right now.
Uh, well…
I toss and turn when I sleep.
I toss and turn a lot.
My arm might hit your wound.
It could make things worse.
I’m going now.
Prince, repeat it to yourself.
You’ve got a man already.
But…
Let me ask you something.
Earlier, when you said that
me before and after I took the poison,
it feels like I’m two different people,
so which one do you love?
Don’t trouble yourself, Worradej.
Be however you wish to be.
Just stay true to yourself.
That’s the you I love.
Even if you hate what I did to Banjong,
I need you to know,
I did it because I love you.
Love is love.
But you can’t use love
as an excuse to hurt others.
I don’t know
what you’ve been through
to become this way,
but for us humans,
knowing right from wrong
means choosing to change for the better.
It’s up to you whether you will or not.
Have you lost your mind?
Are you satisfied now?
My wound.
Pandao.
What are you doing?
Probably washing clothes.
Sorry.
I asked the wrong thing.
I meant to ask what chili paste
you’re pounding.
Hell chili paste.
I have to cook for my brother.
If I let you do it, he couldn’t eat it.
He’d starve before his wound heals.
And I’ll bring some to Brother Kosol too.
Then when you’re done,
please feed some to Banjong too.
I’m heading back.
Really? Good. Go then.
The sooner the better.
I’ll take care of my brother myself.
Then I’ll leave it to you.
I have to get back to Kosol.
Don’t go yet.
Let me ask you something.
Why suddenly don’t you want
to tend to Brother Banjong?
You’re the reason he got hurt.
You know Banjong likes me, right?
Mm, well…
I had some idea.
But I don’t see him as more than a friend.
I don’t want him
to think too far beyond that.
If I treat him too kindly,
it’ll feel like giving him hope.
The longer it goes on, the harder to fix.
Let me ask you straight.
You and Brother Kosol,
are you together?
Together, as in…
You mean lovers?
As in a couple?
Mm.
Yes.
We confessed our love
and decided to be together.
Pandao.
What’s wrong?
Nothing, I’m fine.
Chili and garlic got in my eyes.
You like Kosol too, don’t you?
I can tell.
You cook really well.
But if you give it
to someone who doesn’t want it,
it won’t taste good to them.
Keep your cooking.
Give it to someone who wants it.
Oh, Worradej.
Is the food ready?
It’s not Worradej.
It’s me.
Then where did Worradej go?
Why didn’t he bring it himself?
He’s the one who has to feed me anyway.
Brother Banjong.
You’re handsome.
You’ve got a good nature.
And you’re knowledgeable.
You should find someone
who truly values you.
As for me, I’ll find someone
who appreciates my chili paste.
What are you saying?
I don’t understand.
Explain it clearly to me.
Worradej told me
he and Brother Kosol,
they’re together now.
I think we’ve lost our chance, brother.
Brother Banjong.
What do you think?
Say something.
If they’ve already decided to be together,
what more is there to say?
Eat, brother.
Hey. Kosol, where are you going?
I’m going to see Banjong.
Hey, stop right there.
Haven’t I told you already?
There’s nothing between me and Banjong.
And I’ve already left his house.
You really love to overreact.
Worradej.
Come ride with me.
You’re asking me to ride a horse?
What’s with you today?
Come on, please.
Weird. Really weird.
Normally, if I hesitated,
you’d just grab me
and throw me on the horse.
Why are you talking so sweet today?
Super suspicious.
Well, isn’t this how you like me?
Beautiful, right?
Yeah, beautiful.
Hey, Kosol.
Why did you suddenly
take me horseback riding today?
I want to apologize for a lot of things.
Which one? There’s a lot.
Well, all of it.
For all the times I hurt you.
For making you unhappy.
You were right.
I shouldn’t have treated you badly,
or anyone else,
using my love as an excuse.
I’m truly sorry, Worradej.
I’m glad
that today you let go of your pride.
At first,
I thought you were a stubborn man,
one who never admits he’s wrong.
But…
if today you’re willing to apologize,
then I’ll forgive you.
Since we love each other now,
I don’t want you to be hurt.
Anything I can do for you,
I want to do it.
You know,
you’re cuter than I thought, Kosol.
Then…
I’ll give you a reward in return.
Who is it?
Didn’t I say to knock before coming in?
Kosol.
I went to pick up the pieces
of your glasses
ad took them to a craftsman for you.
Is that clear enough?
Crystal clear.
I see everything clearly now.
From now on,
I won’t stand in the way
of you and Worradej again.
Thank you so much.
Ow, my wound.
It’s been a while since the battle ended.
The wounded are recovering,
but the villagers are still shaken.
So I thought we should hold a festival.
Bring back joy and life to everyone.
I agree, Your Majesty.
The full moon of the 12th month
is only days away.
I suggest we hold the festival then,
Your Majesty.
The full moon of the 12th month?
That’s perfect.
A night under the full moon.
Bright enough, no torches needed.
Cool breeze, perfect for strolling.
Worradej, I’ll appoint you
to lead this festival.
I humbly accept, Your Majesty.
Everyone, let’s make this celebration
as epic and fabulous as possible!
Yeah!
Somdet, sir.
Our scouts report that
Singhanakhon plans a grand festival
on the 12th full moon.
It’s said to be quite the event.
Hey, Kosol.
After all this time,
it still looks like a lump of dung.
When will it ever be finished?
Can’t you be patient?
This is my first time.
Give me a break.
Your first time?
And this is the best you can do?
We’re making a water jar,
not some random pot.
This looks like an incense burner.
Here, look at the sample. See?
Hold it closer.
I’m working on it.
Before it gets tall, it has to start low.
And if you hadn’t come up with this idea,
we wouldn’t be struggling like this now.
In past festivals,
we lit lanterns and lamps
along homes and city walls
as offerings to the sacred.
But if this year, we want the villagers
to gather at the pond,
we need a reason to draw them there.
How about this?
On the 15th night, when the river is full,
invite people to honor
the Goddess of Water
by floating krathongs as sacred offerings.
Oh my!
Am I witnessing
another key moment in history?
Is this the birth
of the Loy Krathong Festival?
I agree, Your Majesty.
It’s chic to have an activity
everyone can join.
But I worry about the waste, Your Majesty.
For now, our population is small,
but hundreds of years from now,
as numbers grow,
so will the waste.
Instead of pleasing the Goddess,
it might sadden her.
You think far ahead, Worradej.
And what would you suggest?
I think,
have people bring clean water
from their homes
and pour it back into the river.
That way, no trash.
The water stays pure, the fish unharmed.
The Goddess will be happy.
And how will people carry water from home?
With their hands?
Each person could
make their own clay vessel
to hold the water,
offering it to the Goddess
with utmost respect.
Isn’t that good?
You think people can all
make pottery themselves?
That sounds troublesome.
I don’t agree.
It’s just pottery.
- Not that hard--
- Let’s vote.
Who sides with Worradej? Raise your hand.
See? In the end,
I’m the one stuck with it.
Fine, forget it.
Just sit still. I’ll do it myself.
How hard can it be?
It’s just making a clay water jar.
See?
It’s harder than it looks.
Let me do it. You just sit still.
No, you sit still. I’ll do it.
Move your hand.
You move yours.
If I leave it to you,
it won’t be done by next year.
- Just stay put.
- I’ll mold it. Give it here.
Let go. No, you let go.
No.
I’ll do it myself.
You just stay still.
Hey, Kosol.
The villagers are really cooperative.
Look, jars everywhere, ready for water.
Hey, Worradej.
Can you carry the jar for me?
I’m embarrassed.
What’s there to be embarrassed about?
This is the jar
we both worked on together.
You should be proud.
If you’re proud, you carry it.
Is this a water jar or a rotten gourd?
Why is it so lopsided?
Still,
no matter how crooked it looks,
we should see it like it’s our child.
However our child may look,
we’d still love them.
So you carry it.
It’s so pretty, oh!
Why’d you stop walking, brother?
Pandao.
Let’s take another way.
No, brother.
We can’t keep avoiding each other.
We’ll have to face it eventually.
If it’s at work with others around,
I can handle it.
But meeting them like this,
I don’t know what to do. Let me go.
Why do you always run from problems?
With me, you’re not allowed
to run anywhere.
Let me go now, Pandao.
That’s Banjong with Pandao.
Brother Banjong!
Where’d Banjong go, Pandao?
He had a stomachache and excused himself.
Pandao, please hold this.
I’ll come get it later.
Kosol, where are you going?
- Wait for me!
- Worradej!
Hey, whoa!
Ow!
This thing is so heavy.
Why are you following me?
Are you crying?
No.
Smoke just got in my eyes.
Banjong.
As your friend,
I think you should face the truth
and stop running from it.
I know it may hurt,
but if it hurts and ends,
it’s better than denying it
and hurting forever.
If you want to cry, just let it out.
Men can cry too.
There’s nothing wrong with that.
No more tears now, right?
Feeling lighter?
No more tears, okay?
Now tell us. What's on your mind?
I promise I’ll listen.
And I won’t judge you.
Worradej.
The truth is,
I’ve loved you for so long.
That day you confessed your love,
you have no idea how much it hurt
when I had to turn you down.
But now today,
the day I want to say yes,
it’s already too late.
I know you two are together now,
and I’m happy for you,
for your love.
But I just can’t let go yet.
If I had said yes back then,
I wouldn’t be crying today.
But time,
it’s changed the me back then
into someone else today.
So don’t waste any regret on me.
There are so many people
still waiting for your love.
Even the other day,
I still found myself charmed by you.
You’re just so adorable, so sweet,
impossible not to like.
Thank you, Banjong,
for stepping aside for me.
But I don’t want
our friendship to be lost.
Can you still be friends with us again?
Of course.
But give me some time.
The wound is still fresh.
There, there.
Hey, it’s okay, Banjong.
Don’t cry anymore.
Kosol, come hug him quickly.
Our friend’s crying here.
There, there.
Chin up.
It’s okay, really.
If you keep holding me like this,
I’ll just cry harder.
This year, under the full moon
of the 12th month,
I’m honored to fight alongside you all
in Singhanakhon.
Your Majesty!
- King Chaiyached’s been shot.
- Chaiyached!
King Chaiyached has now passed away.
The throne cannot be left empty.
Hey, Kosol.
What’s your plan for storming
the Grand Palace?
I heard that
they’re gathering troops from four towns.
Then meeting at Pak Nam Inthu.
