The synopsis for "O, Farewell, Honest Soldier" posted on TV Guide reads, “Eleanor (Alexandra Park) and Queen Helena (Elizabeth Hurley) consider romantic invitations as a Privy Council meet to determine who will reign as the one true king of England.

At great risk and consequences, Jasper (Tom Austen) reveals to Liam (William Moseley) information that presents a new mystery for the monarchy.”

Prince Robert (Max Brown) and his brother Liam are currently at odds as to who will succeed their father, the late King Simon (Vincent Regan), as the new ruler of England. According to Showbiz Junkies, it seems that Robert may be coming out as the victor, slowly winning the kingly battle as well as romantic prospects with Kathryn (Christina Wolfe).

The video opens to Eleanor calling out to Jasper as they walk down a corridor.  She has a stern look on her face as she yells, “Hey! I wanna talk to you.”

Jasper hesitantly turns around to face her and attempts to act casual saying, “Hi. It’s really good to see you.” Eleanor retorts, “Hi? That’s what you’re going with?” She then confronts him about where he went after they parted ways to which Jasper explains that he had some things to deal with.

Eleanor then proceeds to pore over every detail of her heartache saying, “I’ve been sitting in silence wondering what the hell I did wrong, texting you like a pathetic loser, crying every night, and you just show up like nothing even happened.” When Jasper makes a move to apologize, Eleanor wants nothing to do with it.

The scene ends with Jasper and Eleanor’s new bodyguard Rosie (Sarah Armstrong) facing off after Jasper attempts to go after his ex-girlfriend after the bitter confrontation.
