I did nothing,|I just did like this.

I'll never hunt with you anymore.

Don't get mad,|it was so beautiful.

- Let it coo.|- Perfect. Let it go.

Ah, dad, it's very nice|to walk with you.

I always remember what|you said once...

"When you have problems,|go to walk through the forest".

What?|What is wrong?

Dad!

What is that, Sissy? come on,|my daughter. Tell me!

I didn't come here to visit you,|actually, I ran away from Vienna.

My God, Sissy!|But why?

I couldn't make it anymore.

Aunt Sofia didn't stop|to bother me...

she even took|my daughter away me.

Sissy, you know that I am|always on your side...

but you could not do|such a thing...

after all, you are the|Empress of Austria.

You should not leave|your country.

What did you say to mom|about that?

She still doesn't know.|She was so happy...

that I didn't want|to hurt her.

Don't tell her anything,|maybe things get better.

Well, if you want this way...

Which is the favorite dish|of the princess...

Princess?! I say, of the Empress?

- Ham-meatballs.|- Meatballs. I will make them.

Nobody makes meatballs|better than Your Highness.

Ask to Walpurga|to prepare everything.

- Hello, Max!|- Hello.

What's wrong with you?

With me?|Nothing...

There is something.|What bug did bite you?

Any bug bit me.

Forget it, be not with|that face. Sissy told me.

- What did she tell you?|- What happened to the partridge!

Well, Max, forget it...

Is it another thing?

I know you and|I know that there is something else.

There is nothing, only|the meatballs that I will eat.

Come on,|the meatballs?

Highness, His Majesty,|the Emperor of Austria.

The Emperor?

Please, receive him,|I need to change myself.

- You were never like that.|- I'll tell you later.

You are very strange today.

Greetings, dear aunt.

I'm so happy! First Sissy|and now you!

I could not come before, but for sure|you were waiting for my visit.

No, Sissy said that|you were too busy.

Yes, but to solve this situation|is much more important.

- What situation?|- Sissy has run away from me.

- She what?|- Didn't she tell you?

Not a word.

Why did she run away?

The old same story, she doesn't feel|comfortable with my mother.

And my mother doesn't treat her|the way she should.

But this wasn't the|reason for the runaway.

You are right...

I see. But tell me, what was the reason|that made Sissy to runaway from you?

I agreed that mom|should raise the child.

- What?|- It seemed to be the best solution.

- Did you take Sissy's daughter off?|- Yes, we changed the bedroom...

And you think it is weird|that she has run away?

She should have cared for|the image of the Empire.

It is the last important, when|it means to assure that...

a mother keeps her daughter.|Any woman would act like this.

Franz, you will never|understand that...

but believe me, every mother would|agree with Sissy.

How did he know?|Was it you.

No, it was colonel Bckl.|He telegraphed to Vienna.

- So it was that.|- Very well.

If he didn't know where you are,|he could not follow you.

He recognized the|mistake he made.

- You should be kind with him.|- Me? Never!

I will put everything that I held|so far out.

You will reconquer Sissy if|you do not reprehend her.

I'm sorry, but I will tell|her everything that...

There she comes.

I am so happy to|have you again.

- What about our little one?|- She is doing fine.

- Did she gain weight?|- A half pound.

- Is she liking milk?|- She is loving it.

I know that I hurt your feeling,|I'm very sorry.

Me to.|I was such a fool.

But now everything|is gonna be Ok.

- Everything will be the way you want.|- No, the way you want.

Was it you who telegraphed to Vienna?

Because you did it very well.

Because it was almost a heroic action.

A... a... heroic action?

- We will not go back right now.|- What do you mean?

You need to know|your country...

Karnten, Steiermark!

And for not missing|your mountains...

I'm going to show you ours!|- Great.

Do you know where|we're going to start from?

- From Tirol!|- That's fantastic.

This is too beautiful! I have never|seen something like that before.

So? Is it not too beautiful?

There below, it is the|city of Innsbruck!

That big mountain|is Habicht!

Will I have to climb the|mountain riding this animal?

- It's very tiresome for you.|- For me? When I was...

a child I always climbed mountains.|My father used to say:

Any mountain is too high and|any way is too narrow!

Do you see that cross?

Pay attention.

I'm going to show you something!

- Sissy, no! You are not wearing boots.|- I don't need boots!

Look out, Majesty!

Look out, Majesty.

She is killing me... pardon me!|That Empress is of killing!

- Franz! See, deer!|- I'm coming.

Hell! He going|to go up too!

You climb as well as I do!

- Where are the deer?|- There! Can you see them?

Look, so many!

Do you see that?

Amazing!

But now it is winding a lot.

That means that...

- there is an Alps flower.|- Where?

- On the scarps! I'm going to take it.|- It's dangerous! Franz! Look out.

- What is he doing?|- He's going to pick the Alps flower.

- Is he still there?|- Yes, for a while.

I caught it.

I'm going!

I was afraid for you!|Thank you.

- I think it's coming a storm.|- But the sky is so blue!

The weather here changes fast.|See how the clouds are moving.

Guide, is there an inn|close to here?

Yes, the only problem is that the|innkeeper will be sad. If he knew...

that Your Majesty would come,|he would make a better dinner.

- We won't say who we are.|- We will eat what it has.

That's it, Majesty!

We used to stay in places like that|when we did long trips.

I used to played the zither.|But not like that.

Thank you.

Watch out, he can|make a mistake again!

- Did you hear that?|- No.

Hey hunter, look at that.

- It smells good! Is there any ham?|- It is inside.

- What about the dishes?|- Eat it in the bowl. What do you drink?

- A glass of milk.|- We don't have it. The goat didn't come.

The idiot is hiding!

The goat didn't come. It went up the|hill! That idiot! And it disappeared.

- What else do you have to drink?|- "Red" and "Burned"!

I would like to drink "red",|but I don't know what it is!

Don't you understand the language of|your people? What a ashamed.

"Red" is red wine,|"burned" is dry wine.

- Please, a "red" one.|- And a "burned" one.

- Do you have a gentian?|- I can handle it!

Bring it, please.|You will already be assisted.

- So? Are you satisfied?|- Not totally.

- Could we stay here a few days?|- To stay here?

- It would be good.|- There is a hut over there.

- You only need to clean it up.|- It's Ok. We will clean it up.

When I was going to with my father|we used to stay in huts like that.

- I used to make the breakfast myself.|- I heard that you are a great housekeeper.

That too!

Majesty?|The storm is over.

- Is it over?|- Yes.

- That was so fast.|- Look, the rainbow!

- Where?|- There!

Ah, I saw it!

Sorry, Majesty, but the guide|says we have to go back right now...

- before it gets dark.|- You will go back with him. We'll stay...
