Francis: Mary, this is the most dangerous thing you have every done! Do you really love him that much? I thought that this was about your healing. But now you've done what a queen must never do, you've put the personal above the political, his safety above the nation's.
Mary: Whatever happens to him, it's over. I will never see him again.
Francis: You say that as if somehow, I've won. But how can it be over when he's still ingrained in your heart? You will always see him just as I will always see you. Naked, in each others' arms.

All that stands between him and the crown is my head.

Catherine: I love you. I am your equal. You convinced me of that. We belong together. I won't lose you to another. And especially not her.
Narcisse: This is love to you? Strangling someone with threats and ruthlessly controlling them just to ease your own fears?
