Francis: Why are you kneeling?
Bash: Because you are King and I am nothing, until you make me something.

The word can be dark, Mary, and uncertain and cruel. The only thing that matters is that we face it together. No matter what happens, you are my light.

Francis

Innocent men shouldn't die alone. You won't die alone.

Conde

Mary: Lord Conde? What is it? Do you know this boy?
Conde: This is my sister's son. Emil! Emil! They murdered my nephew!

Narcisse

Page: Lady Kenna requests a visit, your majesty.
King Henry: No.
Page: She requests that I inform you that she's naked under her robe.
King Henry: Send her in.

Marie de Guise: Marry Francis--not some bastard who might be king some day.
Mary: His name is Sebastian.

I know I told you to go to Lola, but then the Plague came and you knowingly abandoned me to a nightmare. You are the King who deserted his castle and I am the Queen who was left behind, alone. Alone because of your mistakes. Of all the people you could have slept with, did it have to be one of my ladies? One of my closest friends?

Mary

Francis: Mary, I have already made my decision. I am informing the courts now, in writing, before Greer's wedding. My people will know of my decision before the day's end.
Mary: Your people? I thought we were to rule together! At your coronation, you said we would rule as a partnership.
Francis: Mary, I can't always be your husband first. Sometimes I have to be King.

Mary: I am your Queen. I command you.
Lord Narcisse: You will command nothing! I don't fear you. I don't fear your husband! Because without me, without the other nobles your power disappears. We are the outside world and we surround you.

So I sent you here to wed a king and find you engaged to a bastard.

Marie de Guise
