Brothers in Arms

The Musketeers Series 3
Episode 3 of 10

Historical drama. When the king invites his brother Gaston out of exile, a tragedy forces the musketeers to choose between their royal duty and fellow soldiers.

Under orders, the musketeers defend Louis's traitorous brother Gaston after he slaughters a band of veteran soldiers in a Paris tavern. The heartbroken owner, Christophe, demands justice - but the preoccupied king welcomes his formerly exiled brother home with open arms. As tensions ignite and secrets spill, Treville crosses a dangerous line, and the musketeers are forced to choose between their royal duty and fellow soldiers. Meanwhile, Feron and Grimaud spy a kindred spirit in Gaston.
