Plot
British empire monarch George V and his wife Queen Mary decide to hide their last-born son, Johnnie, from the public, being embarrassingly affected by epilepsy. While his protective elder brother is ruthlessly groomed for court life, Johnnie gets packed off to a country cottage on the royal estate Sandringham. With his full-time governess Lalla, a substitute-mother, he's abandoned to playfulness and virtual social neglect. The Great War and the Russian Revolution change life in Britain, also at court, even at Sandringham, where royal refugees are expected.

The far out story of the far west.
They're Busting Up The West Like It's Never Been Busted Up Before!
It's a daisy!
Elya Carlson: In my country we have a saying: "a secret whispered in a coffee house is as confidential as a headline in a newspaper".
Joe Jarrett: Well, you made a mistake: you should have shot off his gun hand.::Matson: It wouldn't make any difference. Go ahead, shoot it off and I'll still get you. You shoot out my eyes, and I'll still find you! If you put a bullet in my heart then I'll make a deal with the devil! I'd trade him for just enough time to come back from hell and kill you! You hear me? I'm gonna kill you!
Joe Jarrett: [to Zack, about Matson] You know, if you ever need a friend... I wouldn't count on that character.
Zack Thomas: How 'bout we get down to business?::Joe Jarrett: Well I drink much better standing up than sittin'.
Zack Thomas: Tell me something Mr. Jarrett, how many states would you say you're wanted in?::Joe Jarrett: How many states are there Mr. Thomas?
Joe Jarrett: Oh, I give you a hundred thousand dollars and you'll give me pardon, right? You know in most states I can buy a pardon for five thousand dollars and they'll throw in a governor.::Zack Thomas: Of course you must be thinking of Rhode Island. This here is Texas.
Joe Jarrett: ...And then there are the kids...::Zack Thomas: Kids?::Joe Jarrett: ...All twenty five of them.::Zack Thomas: Twenty five? You must have the fastest horse in Texas. You'd better have a little more of this to keep your strength up.
Maxine Richter: I like men who worry about me.::Joe Jarrett: You don't have to worry about me. I'm a great worrier. Sometimes I worry for months on end.
Maxine Richter: [Talking about a nude portraid of herself] This was the only thing my husband left me. He was a... connoisseur of art.::Joe Jarrett: It's a shame he didn't leave you any clothes to go with it.
Zack Thomas: Well if I have to die, I prefer being killed by the hand of a beautiful woman.::Elya Carlson: If you're not careful, my darling, you might just have your wish.
Prince George's County is a county located in the U.S. state of Maryland, immediately north, east, and south of Washington, DC. As of 2010, it has a population of 863,420 and is the wealthiest African-American majority county in the nation.
The county was named for Prince George of Denmark (1653–1708), husband of Queen Anne of Great Britain and brother of King Christian V of Denmark and Norway. It is frequently referred to as 'P.G.' or 'P.G. County,' an abbreviation which is viewed as pejorative by some residents.
The county is a part of the Baltimore-Washington Metropolitan Area. Its county seat is Upper Marlboro.
The Cretaceous Era brought dinosaurs to the area which left a number of fossils, now preserved in a 7.5-acre (3.0 ha) park in Laurel. The site, which among other finds has yielded fossilized teeth from Astrodon and Priconodon species, has been called the most prolific in the eastern United States.
Prince George's County was created by the Council of Maryland in the Province of Maryland in 1696 from portions of Charles, and Calvert Counties, and a portion was detached in 1748 to form Frederick County. Because Frederick County was subsequently divided to form the present Allegany, Garrett, Montgomery, and Washington counties, all of these counties in addition were derived from what had up to 1748 been Prince George's County.
