Carnival Row 2×08 Facta Non Verba

Imogen (Tamzin Merchant), Agreus (David Gyasi) and Ezra (Andrew Gower) have escaped the fighting in Ragusa. Since their boat was destroyed in the attack, they are now trying to reach The Burgue by land. They have to cross Pact land and Ezra suggests to seek help from Pact soldiers as their two countries are now allies, but Imogen rejects his proposal because it’s risking Agreus’s life. 

Their hike brings some secrets to light as Ezra reveals to Agreus why his sister was still unmarried when he met her. Agreus’ dark past is also exposed and proves to be even more sinister than that of the siblings. When the trio come across a group of Pact soldiers, Ezra attempts to force his sister and her lover to surrender. A fight ensues trying to disarm and silence him and Ezra is killed.

Soon after, Imogen and Agreus are captured by New Dawn soldiers and taken to Kastor (George Georgiou) and Leonora (Joanne Whalley), who offers them a deal: As a Burgish citizen of good standing and property, Imogen has the right to speak in front of Parliament. Leonora tells them to deliver a peace treaty to The Burgue on behalf of New Dawn.

Carnival Row 2×06 Original Sins

Imogen (Tamzin Merchant) and Agreus (David Gyasi) argue about life in Ragusa: Imogen claims she’s happy living under the New Dawn rule and Agreus reluctantly promises to make an effort for her sake. However, after Kastor (George Georgiou) invites them to a party in the evening, the two lovers have a private moment and their true plans are revealed: they intend to escape by hiding in a supply ship which leaves that night.

When Agreus is summoned to New Dawn leader Leonora (Joanne Whalley), he is surprised to see Imogen’s brother Ezra (Andrew Gower), bound and blind-folded. Leonora hands Agreus a gun and leaves him with the decision to kill his brother-in-law or let him live.

In a flashback to the war in Tirnanoc, we meet the kind of creatures who are currently terrorizing The Burgue: Sparas are shape-shifters that are supposed to be extinct for centuries. One of them saves Philo’s (Orlando Bloom) life but later he is ordered to destroy their valley. In the present, Dombey (Jamie Harris) and Berwick seek Philo’s help to find the Sparas who they suspect to be behind all recent killings.

Vignette (Cara Delevingne) is shocked about Tourmaline’s (Karla Crome) visions and tries to persuade her former lover to run away with her. When Kaine (Jay Ali) and Phaedra (Eve Ponsonby) try to convince her to re-join the Black Raven, Vignette must make a decision.

Mr Agreus (David Gyasi) and Imogen (Tamzin Merchant) start their life in Ragusa where they are told by block leader Kastor (George Georgiou) that everyone is required to work in an arms factory. After a day’s hard labour, Imogen bonds with Leonora (Joanne Whalley) over the fact they’re both in interspecies relationships and Leonora warns Imogen that Agreus’ life is in danger.

In the evening, Agreus makes a disturbing discovery: a woman, he had met in the morning outside their room, is suddenly gone but Kastor pretends she never existed. Meanwhile Leonora greets a newcomer to Ragusa: Ezra Spurnrose (Andrew Gower) has come with information about the arms deal between The Burgue and The Pact.

Back in the Burgue, Philo (Orlando Bloom) and Darius (Ariyon Bakare) visit Sergeant Dombey (Jamie Harris) at home to warn him about an imminent attack on his life by members of the Black Raven.

Carnival Row 2×03 The Martyr’s Hand

The police, especially Sergeant Domboy (Jamie Harris), have little interest in investigating the death of the two members of the Black Raven, so Philo (Orlando Bloom) decides to once again take matter into his own hands. With the help of Tourmaline (Karla Crome), who confided in him about her visions, and Constable Berwick (Waj Ali), he finds the decapitated bodies of the murdered fae.

Chancellor Jonah Breakspear (Arty Froushan) is forced to partially re-open Carnival Row to allow the Fae to return to work in the factories, so The Burgue can deliver the promised weapons to The Pact. Meanwhile the leader of the opposition Sophie Longerbane (Caroline Ford) makes a visit to Row bringing food, medicine – and the press – to the suffering fae.

Ezra Spurnrose’s (Andrew Gower) life continues to crumble: while one piece of furniture after the other is removed from the house to pay for his debts, he is visited by the Pembroke siblings, Leonid (Ross Green) and Louisa (Issy Stewart), who are curious about the latest gossip at Finistere Crossing: Was Imogen (Tamzin Merchant) really forcefully kidnapped by the puck Agreus (David Gyasi) – or did they elope?

Desperate to find out more about his sister’s whereabouts, Ezra corners Agreus’ former manservant Fergus (Jim High) in a dark alley. He claims that he needs to find his sister to make amends with her as she’s the only family he has left in the world. Fergus reluctantly believes him and tells Ezra that Imogen and Agreus were last seen in Ragusa.
