La vida breve S01E01 - La marrana

Philip V, after 20 years on the throne, is exhausted and wants to abdicate, something unprecedented in Spanish history. His wife, Isabel de Farnesio, is opposed to it, since retiring would mean ceasing to exert her influence. However, Philip is determined, fearing that he will lose his sanity if he continues. The successor would be his 16-year-old son Louis, much loved by the people and ready to be king, although he needs a queen. The ideal candidate seems to be Louise of Orleans, of France.
