When a young soldier dies for the sake of a shag, Aramis, Athos and Porthos band together with a plan to replace the king. Unknown to many, there is a 2nd king, a twin, hidden at birth, then imprisoned for 6 years behind an iron mask. All that remains now is D'Artagnan, will he stand against his long time friends, or do what is best for his country?

LOUIS:
And I have new joys to announce to you! Today we decree a fresh glory for Paris, and for all of France!
The laying of the foundations to expand Versailles, and make it truly a palace of the sun!
The advisors all applaud furiously, but from the crowd there is almost no reaction at all; the triple ranks of soldiers surrounding the square discourage any protest, and as the King leaves the platform the crowd begins to melt away.
NEAR THE PLATFORM Aramis, watching the crowd disperse, hears behind him --
VOICE:
Aramis.
Aramis turns to see the King, who moves up alone.
ARAMIS:
Your Majesty...
LOUIS:
How goes that favor I asked of you?
ARAMIS:
I grow closer to my target, your Majesty.
LOUIS:
You bring me the heart of the Jesuit General, and you will have a palace of your own.
The King moves away, followed by his fawning advisors.
INT. THE FAVORITE MISTRESS' PALACE ROOMS - DAY A young Musketeer ushers Michelle into the palace bedroom previously occupied by the King's last mistress. The Musketeer leaves her alone, frozen in the center of the room, awed by the opulence. Her eyes play over the details: -- The handcarved, richly upholstered furniture, beneath her fingertips... -- The carved figures of cherubic angels, gleaming with gold, upon the posts of the bed... -- The murals on the walls and ceiling... Her reverie is interrupted by a HANDMAIDEN who bustles in carrying a magnificent dress.
HANDMAIDEN: After your bath put on this, it is the King's favorite color. That letter on the desk came here for you this morning.
She tosses the dress onto the bed and is gone. Left alone, Michelle lifts the letter, and recognizes the writing.
MICHELLE:
Raoul!
She opens the letter and reads quickly.
MICHELLE:
The army! Oh Raoul, don't despair!
I will always be faithful... She interrupts herself as her eyes fall on the gorgeous dress. She looks around at the sumptuous palace apartment, and gazes again at the murals painted above the bed.
They depict naked gods and goddesses, in Olympian orgies.
CUT TO:
CLOSE - STEAMING WATER, POURED INTO A TUB The Handmaiden has prepared a 17th Century bathtub for Michelle, and now retires.
HANDMAIDEN: If you need me further, just ring.
As the handmaiden leaves, exiting frame, we PUSH IN on one of the murals on the wall. The eye of one of the figures there is no longer the painted eye it was before, but is a real human eye, disguised by the mural... THE KING, IN THE SECRET PASSAGEWAY is spying on Michelle.
THE KING'S POV as Michelle undresses and steps into the bath. Louis catches tantalizing glimpses of her richly sensual body in the soapy water, and it stokes his desire.
INT. PALACE - MICHELLE'S NEW ROOM - DAY Michelle stands before the mirror, staring at herself, breaktakingly gorgeous in her new dress. She stares for a long time, surprised at her own beauty.
She reaches to a vase of roses and pulls one out, blotting it around her neck, perfuming herself with its fragrance. She looks into the mirror, at her eyes... In guilt for what she is already feeling, she lifts Raoul's letter to read it again. Then she gasps -- the King stands right before her.
