"Previously on Reign..." "Does the archduke know about us?" "I told the archduke I would never give you up." "Gideon!" "He was poisoned, Jane." "Your Majesty, we have to go." "I will find who did this to you." "I stand before you to announce that I am blessed and honored to carry within me an heir with a claim to both the Scottish and English thrones." "Please tell me that you didn't burn those men." "She convinced me that it was the only way to protect myself." " Who convinced you?" " Keira." "Keira is dead." "You know that this is dangerous." "I'm sorry, Mother." "I forgot you're a believer in the occult." "As soon as Charles chooses one of the brides approved by Philip, Spain will finally support his reign." "The love of my life and the new queen of France." "Come, Nicole!" "You're with the wrong man." "You deserve someone that cares for you." "Spain wants me in power." "By marrying Nicole, you risk losing the backing of Spain and your throne along with it." "Leeza, my child, oh, it's been so long." "Spare me the pleasantries, Mother." "I'm not here to see you." "I want to talk to Charles and his Protestant fiancée." "Her name is Nicole." "Your Majesty." "Charles, do you truly intend to go through with this marriage against" "Spain's wishes?" "I'm sorry, Leeza, but I must follow my heart." "You cannot be swayed?" "I cannot." "Well, then..." "I suppose there's nothing to be done." "Except stay for the king's wedding." "You can't be serious, Leeza." "I was almost sent to a nunnery for following my heart!" "Water under the bridge." "Better yet, champagne." "Oh, and I brought a gift, too, as a token of goodwill." "On the way here, my soldiers rounded up all these French heretics." "Oh, the one with the nasty gleam in her eye is a notorious witch." "I thought the trials could bring us all together." "That is so thoughtful of you." "Whatever it is that you're up to, can we please just get it over with?" "Why would I be up to something?" "After reflection and prayer," "I realized France isn't worth my efforts." "I'll take my holiday here and then... leave you to your own mess." "You've been avoiding me." "I've been busy." "Charles is taking me on a tour of France in a few days to celebrate our engagement." "Are you going by choice or by order of the king?" "What's the difference?" "And don't pretend to be heartbroken about it." "We both know you only pursued me to sabotage Charles and take his throne." "However our affair began, it bloomed into something very, very real." "I can hardly eat or sleep." "Even my favorite earrings fail to cheer me." "Nicole, you understand me as no woman ever has." "And I understand you." "Admit it, you don't love Charles..." " you love me." " It doesn't matter." "He can make me queen of France." "Which means I cannot love you, Henri." "Well, it seems we're agreed then." "We shouldn't love each other, and yet we do." "You look... huge!" "Thank you, Greer." "I've secretly decided I'm not leaving this chair until I give birth." "I have some news that might interest you." "I've called James back to court." "You've lifted your brother's banishment?" "I haven't heard back from him yet, but I've told him how urgent my situation here is." "I'm still operating without a full privy council." "You want James to fill one of the seats?" "No." "I want to name him regent." "Just in case something happens to me during childbirth," "I want someone trustworthy to step in to lead." "You're going to be fine, Mary." "And James will come as soon as he can." "He's loyal to you." "What is it?" "Something I probably shouldn't tell you." "I know you're trying, against all odds, to keep the peace with Darnley..." "What has he done now?" "Mary." "Oh, um, um, I have something." "Look at it." "Look what I have made for the little one." "It's nice, isn't it?" "Oh, uh, please, have a seat." " How are you feeling?" " Darnley, I thought that we agreed that you wouldn't make a drunken, whoring spectacle of yourself anymore." "And yet Greer tells me that you were stumbling around the halls last night, drunk and incoherent." "Last night?" "Really?" "Were you so drunk you don't remember?" "No." "I-I don't remember drinking." "You don't look well." "I'm, um..." "I'm not, uh... not feeling quite myself." "Itchy shirt." "I don't know what..." "This itches." "Your skin." "Hmm?" "Darnley, your back!" "Wh-What?" "Here, look." "They're lesions." "I-I..." "I've seen something like this before." "When I was little, in the convent, we used to visit the sick..." "Darnley, have you taken any lovers with, um... with syphilis?" "No!" "I've..." "No, that's-that's..." "that's not possible." "I..." "I've seen men with that." "The-the... the lesions all over their bodies." "The-the madness." "I had a friend who thought he was the red devil, and then his teeth fell out." "I can't possibly have that." "Darnley, listen to me." "You need to see a doctor immediately." "You need treatment." "What do you care what happens to me?" "You had me thrown in a dungeon." "Darnley, you're my husband and the father of my child." "I don't want to see you suffer." "I want to help you." "It..." "Please, let me help you." "I don't know what to do." "I know of a facility where they have the best treatment." "If you want to be a part of our child's life, you need to go there and heal." "Please." "For all of us." "You actually feel sympathy?" "For Darnley, the snake that's tried to ruin you." "Bothwell, the man is ill." "For all we know, his illness could have caused his insanity and cruelty." "Don't waste this moment making excuses for him." "This may be your last chance to save yourself and destroy him." "I told you, I'm not interested in bloodshed." "There's been enough already." "It seems the disease will kill him for us." "We need only lock him away." "Then maybe you and I might still have a chance." "Bothwell, stop." "Darnley is the king of Scotland and he is still my husband." "We had our chance to convict him, and we failed." "We must accept that." "I have nothing to offer you as a woman." "I don't believe that." "I am the man fated to be with you." "It's dangerous for us to be close." "And it will be especially so when the baby comes." "My enemies will be watching me closely." "I cannot afford to give them any cause to gossip." "You would spend your life denying your heart?" "You are my bodyguard and my most trusted protector." "But you can't be anything more." "I understand." "What do you mean you can't give Luc and me the annulment?" "You promised!" "I promised to try." "A king is not a pope, Claude." "We can't go on like this, Charles." "You said weeks ago that this annulment would happen." "And it will." "Someday." "But right now, my fiancée happens to be a Protestant." "I-I can't be asking Spain and the Vatican for favors." "Because you're marrying who you choose." "I have no choice." "I know it doesn't seem fair, but have faith." "Claude," "I've been thinking." " You should go to Leith." " What?" "I-I can't." "You and I are married." "Until death do us part." "If you stay, it's your heart that will die." "So will mine." "As much as I've wanted this marriage to work, it can't." "You love another." "Apparently you have sent my son to a hospital to be treated for a ghastly disease." " What if people hear of this?" " For your information," "I have gone to great lengths to protect your son, even care for him, despite his many treacheries against me." "You should be thanking me right now." "You..." "Oh, God." "What is it?" "The baby." "No, fetch the midwife at once!" "The child is coming." "Hurry!" "Look at all these jewels." "And F-French cheese." "How did you manage to afford all this?" "I didn't, Mother." "They're gifts." "From Queen Elizabeth." "Lately, we've grown... quite close." "Why does it all come from France?" "The queen is fond of French delicacies." "I never knew a servant of the queen could do so well for her family." " Thank you, Father." " Mmm." "Well, I should be off to work." "Your Majesty?" "It's been 47 days since Gideon was killed." "Do you still think it was your fiancé who poisoned him?" "The archduke was the only one who had motive." "He knew how much I loved Gideon and that I would never end the affair." "I have no proof." "But I have turned it over in my mind again and again." "And the only other person who knew how much Gideon meant to me was you." "You suspect me," " Your Majesty?" " Don't be frightened, Jane." "I've already ruled you out." "You had no reason to harm Gideon, and you knew what I'd do to your family if you betrayed me." "The archduke had no such precedent." "He left me here, to grieve on my own while he tends to business." "Look." "It's a manifest." "The archduke has a Portuguese ship sailing to Austria." "His family's business depends on the gold it carries." "You're going to sink it?" "No, I'm going to steal it." "Greer, there's something wrong." "I can feel it." "It's all right, Mary." "Just hold on." "Lady Greer." "Where are you going?" "I'm just going to speak with the doctor a moment." "Tell me what's happening." "You're losing too much blood." "What happens to me doesn't matter." "If it comes down to a choice between me and the baby," " you choose the baby." " Mary, don't talk like that." "Do you understand?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "Greer, bring Bothwell to me." " I don't want to leave you." " Please." "In case I need to say good-bye." "Little brother." "I've been looking for you." "Did you check the throne room?" "Oh, wait, I wouldn't be found there, since I'm not the king." "You enjoy shifting Spain's favor back and forth between us, don't you?" " Well, I've had enough." " Relax, dear brother." "Spain has chosen you." "What?" "I didn't come here to accept Charles's decision." "I came here to quietly hand you victory." "Now, Charles is aware there's a Spanish warship outside the French harbor?" "It concerns him." "But not enough to force him off the throne." "Well, when half the Spanish Armada arrive to join it, he'll change his mind." "Spain would actually do that for me?" "You've always been far more qualified to rule than Charles." "Philip and I are confident that once you're king, you'll heed Spain's wishes, keep France Catholic, marry who you're told, and so on and so forth." "Of course." "Once I'm king." "The ships are due in a matter of days." "I'll be gone before they arrive." "God willing, Charles will abdicate in a sensible manner." "But if not, you may use force." "Once the rest of the Spanish Armada arrives," "I will take the throne." "Nicole, run away with me." "And defy the king of France?" "He won't be king for long." "I need time to think, Henri." "No, we have to leave tonight." "If you go on that engagement tour, I'll lose you forever." "Won't Spain be upset with you for this?" " They may not send the ships." " They need me." "Leeza says I'm the only Catholic ruler Spain can count on." "You will be my queen." "You swear Charles won't be hurt?" "Once he sees my ships, he will stand down." "Charles has never wanted to be king." "Abdicating will be the best thing that's ever happened to him." "Just as you are the best thing that's ever happened to me." "I love you, Nicole." "Henri..." "I'm yours." "Go pack your things, quickly." "Oh, and, Nicole, bring me the corset." "You know the one I like." "Hello, Jane." "Lord Narcisse." "What are you doing here?" "Where is my family?" "Oh, I sent them away." " Where?" " To France, where they will stay under my protection." "You kidnapped my family?" "Why?" "I have done everything you asked of me." "I spied on Elizabeth, I poisoned her lover." "And you've been generously compensated for all your hard work." "But someone must take the fall for Gideon's death." "Elizabeth already suspects the archduke." "I've made sure of it." "At this moment, she's planning a naval attack" " to cripple his finances." " Yeah, but that is not enough." "He has to die." "For us to walk away from this cleanly, Elizabeth needs to believe that justice has been served." "You want me to convince her to order an assassination?" "She won't do it." "Killing the archduke would risk retribution from Austria, Spain..." "That is the endgame." "Elizabeth ensures her own downfall, and you retire comfortably to France." "You ask too much of me." "Jane, we have come so far." "Do not lose confidence now." "Think of your family." "Because if you fail me, if Elizabeth learns that I was behind all this, you will never see them again." "I can't leave hospital." "Mother, I'm sick." "I don't care what Mary says." "I can get better treatment for you back at court." "She just wants to imprison you here, far away from the throne." "Far away from the power that you should be seizing right now." "I have no power left." "Listen to me, Mary is in labor." "A very difficult labor." "Do you know what that means?" "Oh, my God, I'm going to have a child." "It's more than that." "Mary may not survive the delivery." "In a state of emergency, a privy council can be installed by a royal signature." "You are still king." "You can assemble a privy council that supports you." "What does that matter?" "I d..." "I don't have the Crown Matrimonial." "If Mary dies, I will no longer be king." "If Mary dies, the council can name you regent." "Mary is a survivor." "It is worse if she lives." "Mary will do everything she can to keep your child away from you." "But with the privy council at your side, you can fight back." "This is your only chance for a future." "Mother... what if Mary's right about me?" "I keep seeing Keira." "Well, I..." "I know she's dead, but she appears to me." "Is that not madness?" "If seeing Keira makes you happy, does it matter?" "She did love me." "And your child will love you." "But if you let her," "Mary will take your heir away from you just as she has taken everything else." "Well, since the king of France has summoned us before dawn, now would be a good time to tell me, what have you done?" "I have no idea what this is about, Mother." "I was asleep in my chambers the same as you." "You know who isn't asleep in their chambers?" "Nicole." "Neither is Henri." " They're both missing." " Missing?" "Castle guards saw Henri ride off with Nicole in the night, headed for a Spanish ship on the harbor." "The same ship you sent months ago to support Henri." "Did you know about this?" "Certainly not." "I don't believe you, sister." "I don't think Spain ever had any intention of accepting my marriage or my reign." "You and my brother have been plotting against me, and Nicole's kidnapping is proof." " We don't know that he kidnapped her." " What do you mean?" "Are you accusing my fiancée of betraying me?" "Nicole loves me as I love her." "She's the only person I've ever been able to count on in the world." "God knows what Henri's doing to Nicole against her will as we speak." "And you, Leeza, will pay." "I am married to the most powerful man in the world, and I will not be threatened by my damaged brother who is unfit to rule." "I am the king, and I will have you arrested for treason!" " You wouldn't dare." " Charles." "You're understandably upset, but Leeza isn't only your sister, she is the queen of Spain." "She is an enemy of France." "Take my sister to the dungeon." "Charles, no!" "No!" "Let go of me!" "You can't do this!" " Throw her in with her heretics!" " Tell them to let me go, Mother!" "Mother?" "!" "Can't you do something for her?" "Anything?" "The queen's condition is deteriorating." "I fear the possibility of losing both of them if I don't operate." "No." "If you open her up, she will die." "Sir, the queen is not going to survive." "The question now is whether we save the baby" " and relieve Mary of her agony." " Bothwell, where are you?" "I'm here." "I'm right here." "I'm right here." "Something isn't right." "My baby, he's-he's dying." "Mary, listen to me, I promise you, your baby is going to live." "You have to save him." "I want you all to save my baby." "Do you hear me?" "I'm ordering all of you!" "No matter what it takes." "Save my baby!" "Stay back!" "If you come anywhere near her with those, I will kill you myself." "She's dying, Lord Bothwell." "The queen wants me to save her child." "Greer..." "Greer, I love you." "I love you, too." "Mary." "No, no, no, no." "Don't give up." "Mary, stay with me." "You have to fight!" "You can do this." "It's your fate." "It's our fate." "Now gather your strength, all of it and come back to me." "Come back and meet your child." "Mary, come back to me." "Oh, thank God." "Come on, Mary." "You're almost there." "That's it, Mary." "I'm right here." "I'm with you." "That's it." "Push, Mary, push!" "Queen Mary, you have a son." "I've been waiting a very long time to meet you, and you are more perfect than I ever could have imagined." "Where are you going?" "You need to rest." "The doctor told me you lost a lot of blood." "I want you to stay." "Mary, you said it yourself." "The baby is here." "I need to stay far away from you." "Gossip can be dangerous." "Bothwell?" "When I was giving birth, I..." "I felt myself slipping away, but it was your voice that guided me back." "If you hadn't been here," "I wouldn't be holding my son in my arms right now." "I've been seeing it all wrong." "The danger is not in us being close." "It's in our being apart." "My enemies are going to gossip and lie about me no matter what I do." "As far as I'm concerned, they can all go to hell." "I going to spend the rest of my life with the ones I love." "I'm so sorry to interrupt this, but... something's happened." "What is it, Greer?" "While you were giving birth, Lady Lennox filled all of the remaining seats on the privy council." "What?" "She can't do that." "You need a royal signature." "It's Darnley." "He shifted the balance of power back to himself." "While I was giving birth to his child." "This is Lady Lennox's doing." "I need to talk to Darnley." "I think I can still reach him." "Thank you, Jane." "I had some books sent over to your house as a gift, but no one was home to receive them." "Oh." "That was so kind of you, Your Majesty." "My family and I were out at the market." "Well, my page said your livestock was wandering unattended." "I hope your father's not neglecting his animals." "Your Majesty, Naval Commander Francis Drake is here to see you." "Please excuse us, Jane." "Queen Elizabeth, we meet at last." "My friend Hawkins has told me much about you." "I'm glad he could arrange this meeting." "I have a special mission that requires your naval expertise and your ships." "There's a Portuguese freighter filled with jewels, gold, silver setting sail for Austria." "I want that cargo for England." "And what would your... friend, the archduke, say to that?" "Well, aren't you clever?" "Let's just say this..." "operation cannot be traced back to me, and you will be well compensated." "You'll utilize blank sails, and hide any semblance of British emblems" " during your attack." " Your Majesty, believe it or not," "I have actually done this before." "I can pillage that cargo in secret." "Though there is always a risk." "To me, it's worth the risk." "Then you don't mind paying me more." "Say, 10% of the haul?" "I thought you came as my loyal subject." "You're the queen of England." "Everyone who walks through these doors wants something from you." "If they say otherwise, they're lying." "Pay me what I ask, and that cargo will be yours." "On my honor." "The king has chosen you to join his privy council to defend his rights as father to Scotland's heir." "The welfare of this child must be decided by this council, not by Queen Mary." "Continue, Lady Lennox." "You were just saying something about me?" "Gentlemen, please give us the room." "I would like to speak to my husband alone." "Darnley, do you want me to stay?" "Yes." "I know what you're trying to do, Mary." "Trying to take my son away from me." "I won't let you." "Darnley, you are very ill." "Your mother is filling your head with lies." "I just want to help you." "By locking me away?" "Well, I won't let you." "There is a motion being passed tomorrow in front of the privy council to appoint me the child's steward." "No." "Once I am named steward of the heir," "I will have the power to keep you out of my son's life," " just as you would have done me." " This is insane!" "What happens when Mary tells the privy council you're infected with syphilis?" "We will accuse her of infecting the king, a result of her wanton adultery." "Every choice she makes will be inspected for madness." "Mary will lose her throne in disgrace." "Darnley, I am his mother." "For the good of our child, please be decent." "Now you talk of decency?" "When I have the power." "Where was your decency when I asked for my fair share?" "We're finished here." "Darnley, please, you can't..." "Mary..." "Maybe you're the one who needs help, Mary." "You don't look well." "Oh, Claude, where have you been?" "Charles has thrown your sister in the dungeon." "My dear, what's wrong?" "Leith is getting married." "I wrote to him, saying that my marriage to Luc is over, that I was willing to give up everything to finally be with him." "Darling, I'm sorry." "I tried so hard to honor my promise to Leith, to be a good person, but it just wasn't enough." "Keeping your promise because you want to be good and honorable, isn't the same as keeping your promise because you truly love someone." "Maybe you don't love Leith quite as much as you think." "You have a husband who values you, so you still have a chance at happiness." "Francis Drake, you finally returned." "I trust you have good news?" "Good news and bad, Your Majesty." "You gave me your word the cargo would be intercepted discreetly." "Don't worry, we disguised our ships and took the freighter's entire bounty." "It's in the harbor now, being loaded onto several carriages." "Several carriages?" "That's quite the haul." "The problem is what came after." "To avoid any connection to our piracy, we cut through Spanish waters on our way back here." "We thought we'd be safer in foreign territory by raising our English sails in peace, but we ran afoul of some Spanish warships who had a different idea." "They wanted to search us." "Did you engage them?" "I had no choice." "One thing led to another." "They fired on us, so I fired back." "We sunk two warships." "It's no easy feat." "You sunk two Spanish warships while our English sails billowed in the wind for all to see?" "The Spanish attacked first." "As if that matters now." "Do you have any idea what you've done?" "How could you be so shortsighted?" "King Philip has always desired England and now he has grounds for war." "Tell me, Your Majesty, was it shortsighted of me to survive?" "You shouldn't have raised the English sails at all." "From where I stand, they alone are keeping me alive." "Now you can't just hand me over to the Spaniards to take the fall, which I'm sure would have been your first inclination." "You're damn right it would have." "Instead, I am facing a possible war with Spain." "You stick around, Captain Drake." "I have a feeling I'm not through with you." "Stop staring at me, witch!" "My name is Emanuelle." "And I'm not looking at you." "I'm gazing at your ugly, ugly soul." "I can see you've made a friend." "Mother, help me." "That witch is harassing me." "You poor dear, you're surrounded by all of these godless devils, who no doubt wish you were dead." "You have to get me out of here." "I'm the queen of Spain." "Yes, but you're in France now, and you conspired against the French king." "You have overplayed your hand, and you will suffer the consequences." "Those are Charles's words, they're not mine." "I'll write a letter to Philip." "I'm afraid that Philip, he's a little bit busy at the moment planning an attack on England." "I intercepted this message sent by your beloved husband, in which he informs you that, due to a little naval skirmish with the English, those ships are needed elsewhere." "They won't be coming to help Henri overthrow his brother after all." "So your coup has failed." "I only wanted to please Philip." "I never wanted to hurt Charles." "I realize I may have gone a little too far." "Oh, I think Charles sees it a bit differently." "He's going to take your head for this, and I can't stop him." "Mommy, please." "Get me out of here and I'll do whatever you ask, I swear it." "I can get you out of France, but it's gonna cost you and Spain a very long list of favors." "The physician says you'll be back on your feet soon." "It hardly matters." "I can feel my power in Scotland waning, along with my allies." "I still have a few loyal men on the privy council, but the rest belong to the Lennoxes." "They will vote to take my son and make Darnley his steward." "You will figure a way out of this." "You always do." "And now you have your child to inspire you." "Your family." "Dear Elizabeth," "I know there has been much discord between us." "The world and circumstance made us rivals and we've become weapons turned against each other." "But my dear cousin, we are still family." "And what is family in this dark and bitter world, but a glimmer of light in the distance?" "I have just had a son, who already faces danger, for I am surrounded by vicious forces wishing my destruction." "John Knox, the Lennoxes, even my own husband." "I need your help, Elizabeth." "My duty is to my heir and to Scotland, both of which I fear could be lost." "So, from one lonely queen to another," "I ask that should anything happen to me, you will protect my child as your own." "In turn, I promise you that your throne shall never be threatened by me." "Furthermore, if you decide to remain a virgin queen," "I ask that you recognize my son as heir to both our thrones." "Let us hope he inherits a better world than we did." "A world you and I, starting on this day, might create together." "Your loving cousin," "Mary." "Queen Mary asked that I remain here at all times." "I am your king." "I wish to be alone with my child." "You may go." "Look at him." "Look at my little boy." "The most beautiful thing" "I've done in my life." "You know, it's funny." "There was a time when I was afraid that you were here to replace me." "I'm no longer afraid." "And we'll take good care of you." "Won't we, my love?" "Of course we will, Darnley." "You know he'll be safe with us." "Let me get this straight, my sister conspired to send an armada of Spanish warships to usurp me and place Henri on the throne, and you released her?" "Leeza won't be a problem, and neither will Henri." "Spain is far too busy with England." "Their armada won't be coming, so Henri has nothing." "He'll have no choice but to bow to you." "So once you calm down, you can thank me for preventing an all-out war." "Does Henri know the ships aren't coming?" "Not yet." "Then he's vulnerable." "This is the perfect time to crush him." "He is your blood." "Just tell him that the ships aren't coming, and he will return to court with Nicole and admit his defeat." "I don't know, you can send him off to battle the Turks." "All will be forgotten." "Forgotten?" "What about Nicole?" " What about her?" " He's tarnished her honor, her very soul." "For that alone, I would murder him." "So that's what this is about?" "That foolish peasant girl?" "It's not about defending your throne or Nicole's reputation." "You just hunger to destroy your rival for her affection." "Have you ever watched two dogs fighting over a bone?" "They'll tear each other limb from limb unless... you remove the bone." "Your sons are fighting over a girl." "She's in a heavily-guarded ship in the harbor." "I can't get to her." "But perhaps you can." "I understand you're a witch." "Maybe you could help me." "Do you know how to use this?" "How are you," "Your Majesty?" "You must be feeling overwhelmed, losing Gideon," " facing war with Spain." " Yes." "It seems I must weather every conceivable storm at once." "I'm told the archduke will return soon." "What will you do when he gets here?" "What do you think I should do?" "If it were me, if someone took the man I loved," "I would want to avenge him." "Jane, would you help me... take vengeance?" "Of course, if my queen commands it." "There is nothing I wouldn't do for you, Elizabeth." "Really?" "You would do that?" "Kill a man and ask nothing in return?" "How selfless of you." "Perhaps I misspoke." "You know, Francis Drake gave me some good advice, everyone wants something from me." "Anyone claiming otherwise is a liar." "I don't understand." "I had you followed home, Jane." "Last night, and the night before." "It seems your family has still not returned and you are all alone at the farm tending for all the animals." "As if to keep your family's absence a secret." "Your Majesty, you misunderstand." "They're on holiday." "I'm tending the animals until they get back." "Look at how terrified you are." "Has someone taken them?" "In an effort to silence you?" "Elizabeth, please." "Who are you working for?" "Is it John Knox?" "He's done this before." "It would not be the first servant he's coerced into treason." "Speak, while there is still mercy in my heart!" " So help me..." " Elizabeth, please." "You mustn't let suspicion and fear blind you." "I am your friend." "I am the only friend you have left." "It's all right, Jane." "You don't have to answer me." "But you do have to answer my interrogators." "Take her to the Tower." "No, Elizabeth, please." "No, please!" "No, please!" "No!" "Mary." "Mary, wake up." "What is it?" "Darnley's left the castle." "What?" "Where did he go?" "I don't know, but I just learned from one of the servants that he left in a carriage not an hour ago." "That's odd." "He and his mother were very clear about him wanting to stay close to the baby." "Yeah." "What are you doing here?" "You should be in the nursery."
