Previously on Reign.

I told you he's been
like this for weeks.

Sullen, unresponsive.

I should never have become king.

I will fix this.

No!

This is what you two have been doing.

Misplacing the King of France.

The time has come for
the Valois to step down.

Spain must take control.

Is the queen asking me
to use military force?

The queen is asking you
to bring her Darnley.

This Englishman killed my guard

and then tried to murder me.

Get out of our country

or we will drive you out.

Tell me what you gave Agatha.

The cure you're looking
for doesn't exist.

Then she will die?

Yes.

Elizabeth will keep coming after us.

Let her come; let the danger come.

Doesn't it make you feel alive?

Keira, what are you doing here?

I'm going to marry
the Queen of Scotland.

She'll never win your heart, Darnley.

It's mine.

This is not the dead body I
was hoping for, Ambassador.

Queen Mary insisted I bring

the assassin's corpse back to you.

She blames me for the
assassination attempt

on Lord Darnley's life.

Your failure to eliminate Darnley

has caused me public embarrassment.

I'm sorry, Your Majesty.

Do you want me to send another agent?

No. Any further attempt on his life,

successful or not,

will clearly point back to
me and make me appear weak.

And I see no way to stop this wedding.

Then what do you suggest?

Because after Lord Darnley

and Queen Mary wed,
they will raise an army,

they'll gather international support,

and they will come after my throne.

The time to move on Scotland is now.

Your Majesty, if I may...

What? Help me?

Advise me?

Please, Ambassador.

Lord Blackburn and I
occasionally disagreed,

- but at least he didn't mince words.
- Then neither will I.

You cannot invade
Scotland without reason.

Then find me a reason.

This marriage is an act of
aggression and I will not sit by,

helplessly waiting
for the sword to fall.

Come on, Greer, we're almost there.

Oh, Mary, it's beautiful.

I told you.

Darnley and I found it
while on one of our rides.

Admit it, Greer, it's the
perfect place to get married.

Not for a queen.

Well, queen of the fairies,
maybe, but your wedding

is a major political event.

Hundreds of guests, official
ceremonies, legal formalities...

And that's the problem.

So much of this wedding isn't about

who Darnley and I really are.

You mean, who you and
Darnley have become.

As much as I'd like to run away

and elope in a magical forest,

political realities
are part of my life...

and this wedding.

You did have an assassination attempt

at your engagement party.

Darnley and I have been under
attack since before we met.

By Elizabeth, John
Knox, the Protestants,

even some of my own Catholic lords.

Something is going to happen, Greer.

I just... don't know where
it's going to come from.

I see why the idea of
running away with Darnley

is suddenly so appealing.

And while I'm checking over my shoulder

for assassins and the like,

I still have the politics

of a royal wedding to deal with.

The guest list, the seating chart,

a million little things
that could alienate

- my supporters at home.
- And you will deal

with those challenges as you always do.

Except that now, at the end of the day,

you will have achieved more
than a political alliance.

You will have a chance
to find love again.

Well...

it's almost too much to hope for.

But I'm willing to try.

We have a problem.

If you're referring to the fact

that Charles hasn't been seen in weeks

and he gave his crown to a peasant,

we don't have a "problem," Narcisse.

We have a disaster.

Well, it's about to get a lot worse.

I've just learned your daughter,

Leeza, is drafting a letter

for Charles to sign, formally
abdicating the throne.

If Charles abdicates
the throne, then what?

His brother, Henry, is next in line.

He's even younger than Charles.

There will be a vacuum.

They'll make their
own bid for the throne,

which will allow King
Philip to take advantage

of the instability and present Spain

as a better option.

Making France a Spanish territory.

Yes.

Charles's absence buys us time.

He can't sign anything

if his whereabouts are unknown.

Leeza has her Spanish guards

combing the countryside as we speak.

- Then we must find him first.
- Yes.

My sources told me of
a family outside Meaux.

They recently took in
a mysterious boarder.

Maybe it's Charles.

I will go at once.

Uh, Catherine...

Charles didn't just
run away from his duty.

He also ran away from...

you.

I'm the problem now?

You must admit, your
relationship with Charles

has been strained.

Perhaps Charles would
respond better to a strong,

male authority figure.

But in the absence of such
a man, I'll settle for you.

Hmm.

I will hold my tongue and
I'll let you do the talking,

but rest assured, I am the right person

to bring Charles home.

There's an unbreakable bond
between a mother and her son.

I can't believe you're taking
my lands for your fiancé.

I have no choice.

It's a requirement of our marriage.

Darnley must be given a Scottish title.

That requires me to grant him lands

that earn him a certain
amount of income.

And somehow it has to be my lands.

The old Lennox Estates
are the only lands

that earn enough income to
give Darnley the right title.

And I'm sure this has
nothing to do with the fact

that these are the same lands
taken from Darnley's father

for being a traitor.

I won't deny that erasing
Darnley's family's stigma

is a benefit.

I know it's a loss.

Another loss... of
valuable trade routes,

- of money out of my pocket.
- I will compensate you.

Will you compensate me for the
political allies I've given up?

Or for my position at court,

which Darnley has already
declared redundant?

He even took my favorite
Arabian stallion.

Will you compensate
me for that, as well?

Nothing that has been done was
meant to harm you personally.

And I didn't realize
he had taken your horse.

I will talk to him about it.

It's not about the horse.

It's that I don't like
making sacrifices for someone

who isn't worthy of you to begin with.

He only came here to
promote his power, not yours.

He set fire to a building
so he could look like a hero.

Darnley's a better man than you think.

Really?

Who told you that?

Darnley?

You forged a letter to end
my relationship with Keira.

- How could you do this?
- It wasn't easy. I paid a fortune.

- You don't deny it?
- How did you find out?

Keira arrived here from
England two days ago,

trapped in a loveless marriage,

desperate to know why I abandoned her.

She's here? Please, tell me

that you have not slept with her.

You have ruined any chance
that I had at being happy.

I've ruined nothing.

Your dalliance with Keira
was a foolish passion,

a distraction keeping
you from your true destiny

as king of Scotland,

and some day, perhaps, of England.

I loved her.

I was heartbroken when I
thought that she had rejected me.

She was the love of my life.

And you've taken that from me.

For your own good.

My son, you must put
the past behind you.

Keira is married. You
are engaged to a queen.

Do you think I don't know that?

This isn't easy.

I care for Mary, too.

I don't want to lose what this
marriage means to either of us.

Then don't.

Where is Keira now?

She's in an inn

in the village until I
can decide what to do.

There is no decision to be made.

If you continue with this relationship

and Keira's husband finds
out that she was here,

he will have her jailed for adultery.

And your fiancée,
the queen of Scotland,

will be humiliated
before the entire world

and this marriage will not happen.

You'll lose everything,
the lands, the title,

the power, all of it.

Don't be a fool.

Send Keira home now.

Make sure Ambassador Richards knows

how eagerly I await his report.

Oh, excuse me, Your Majesty.

I've just come from the kitchen.

Agatha asked for blueberry
pie, her favorite.

Then I remembered
blueberries are out of season.

Well, at least she's feeling better.

She had a surge of energy
thanks to the pain medication.

The court physician said it's temporary,

of course.

And how are you?

I want her final days to be
as painless as possible, but...

I know she senses my sadness.

I just feel so helpless.

I understand.

Helpless is not a feeling

I am fond of, either.

Gideon, I don't mean
to intrude, but may I?

Anything you do would be a great help.

Look who's feeling better.

What are you playing, Agatha?

Princess.

What a coincidence,
that is my favorite game.

Except, when I do it, it
is called playing queen.

Would you like to play queen with me?

I would, very much.

In that case, we must get you a gown.

Oh, and a crown.

Attention!

I like that sound, too.

Would you like to hear it again?

Can we?

You heard Queen Agatha.

Snap to attention.

One of the best things about being queen

is that your subjects must
obey your every command.

Does that include my father?

Absolutely. Your father has been

a loyal servant of the crown.

Your wish is his command.

Hop on one foot.

Now dance.

A little faster, Lord Blackburn.

Knees higher.

No, h-higher.

He isn't very good, is he?

I beg your pardon?

In my youth, I won many contests.

No, she's right, Father, you're awful.

Give me a piggyback ride
to the library instead.

As you wish, Your Majesty.

They said you sent for me.

Is everything all right?

What's this?

It's the deed and title to
your family's former estate.

It's yours now.

Mary, you have no idea
what this means to me.

It came at quite a price.

I had to take the lands from James.

He was angry to have lost them.

Especially to you.

I'm sure you'll find a
way to make it up to him.

He is my brother, and
I've already asked him

to sacrifice so much.

We've all made sacrifices
that are painful.

No one more than you.

Tell me it's worth it.

Tell me that we're in this together,

this could be more than political,

that we have a chance to be happy.

Mary...

you've been wonderful,

generous, you've given me everything.

I don't deserve you.

Well, you have me,

and we have each other.

Humble surroundings for a king.

- What is Charles doing here?
- I have no idea,

but it's a step up from the cave.

You, there!

Don't scare them.

Dear children,

we are from court, and we
are looking for a young man

with dark hair. Have you seen...

Charles?

Hello, Mother.

What a lovely meal.

Mm. Ooh, the soup.

Do I detect a hint of wild pheasant?

It's pigeon, Mother.

Ah. I can't remember

the last time I enjoyed pigeon soup.

King Charles didn't tell us
to expect company for dinner.

He's full of surprises.

Our apologies for arriving unannounced.

- And unwanted.
- Charles.

Guests at our home
will be given respect.

Particularly, the queen mother,

and the, uh...

Lord Chancellor.

We found his Majesty
sleeping in one of our fields.

We wanted to send word, but...

I asked them not to.

- I needed time away from court.
- He's a fine lad,

eager to do his share.

All a young man needs
is purpose and direction.

We're a humble people,
but everything we have

comes through honest work.

Isn't that right, Charles?

That's right.

I'm glad to see that my son
hasn't been a burden to you.

I've found a kind of
love and freedom here.

I feel at peace.

- It's why I stayed.
- Yes, well...

We all enjoy a vacation
from reality occasionally.

But your family and
your true purpose await.

I feel that my family
and my purpose are here.

They aren't. You are king
of France, and your sister...

the queen of Spain...

is using your absence to threaten
the sovereignty of our nation.

Listen to yourself. You
don't even care that I,

your son, am alive,

well and happy.

Alive and well and king of France.

Only if I choose to return to court,

which I don't.

Perhaps we should all

stop talking before this delicious soup

gets cold, hmm?

I hope that's not my face you're
imagining on that bull's-eye?

Of course not.

I'm imagining Darnley.

James, I know you're upset,

but I can't bear the thought
of losing your support.

I want to make it up to you.

And if it helps, so does Darnley.

The only person Darnley cares
about helping is himself.

I know you don't like him...

It's not that I don't like him, Mary.

I don't trust him and
I'm not the only one.

The servants don't trust him, either.

- Which servants?
- The stable hands, for a start.

He's not so careful to be a gentleman

when he thinks no one
important is watching.

- They see his true character.
- And you think that I don't?

You say you're drawn to him because
it's a good political alliance.

But I've seen the way
you look at him lately.

You like him because he's unpredictable,

and you find that exhilarating.

It's not wrong for me to like
the man I'm supposed to marry.

It is when the very
things you're drawn to

make Darnley a risk.

He's not just reckless,

he's insecure and selfish,

driven by ambition and pride...

James, I appreciate your concern.

But if I want to take
England, I must marry Darnley.

Please don't judge me for finding

some measure of happiness in it.

I will compensate you for your
lost trade routes, I promise.

And if you can't trust Darnley,

can you at least trust me?

You said you'd come back.

Keira. You shouldn't be here.

I told you to wait at the inn.

I waited all day.

The situation is complicated.

It's not. The letter your
mother wrote was a lie.

You never stopped loving me.

You said you needed time
to figure things out.

- And I have. Keira, I'm sorry...
- No.

- You love me.
- I am engaged

and about to become a king.

We must end this.

I came here at great risk.

I was willing to give up everything.

But I'm not.

I can't.

Then don't. You can have
both your marriage and me.

A king can take a mistress.

- I'll slip away when I can.
- Keira...

Tell me you don't still
love me and I'll go.

Kiss me,

and if you don't feel
anything, I promise,

you'll never see me again.

But you must kiss me, Darnley.

Kiss me or I'll scream.

No one can ever know.

I wish you could stay.

You make me feel stronger.

Everyone else just sees
me as a means to an end.

But you love me for who I really am.

Wait for me at the inn.

I can't let you go back to England

without seeing you again.

Look at him.

I mean, Charles isn't just well,

he's happier than I have ever seen him.

This environment does seem to suit him.

What, you mean a simple, loving family?

Well, Henry and I could
give him everything

except that.

There's a part of me that
wishes I could let him stay.

We can't, Catherine. We have
to find a way to convince him

- to return.
- Oh.

Yes, please.

Queen Mother, I don't
mean to interrupt...

Oh, no, my dear. Clearly,
we are the intruders here.

I'm sorry Charles is so
reluctant to return to court.

I've never been off this farm,

so the stories he tells
sound wonderful to me.

Sometimes we stay up all
night talking about it.

You stay up all night
talking with the king?

I'm sorry, what did
you say your name was?

Nicole.

Well, you seem to have quite a bond

with my son, Nicole.

Oh, yes. If he were to
leave, I'd miss him so much.

Well, you... you wouldn't have to.

If you could convince Charles
to return with us as king,

then we'd happily bring you along.

Really?

That would be a dream come true.

Um...

Give me a moment to talk to him.

Looks like the king's
been using his hands

to work more than just the earth.

No wonder he's better.

Perhaps. But it'll
take more than a tryst

with a farm girl to make Charles capable

of convincing Leeza
he is fit to be king.

After having full run of
the castle all day today,

I can't imagine what you're
going to dream about tonight.

My favorite part was
splashing in the fountain.

I liked jumping on the beds.

I'm not sure why I
don't do that more often.

Agatha.

Did you take this?

I saw it on that big map when
we were playing hide and seek.

There were so many boats,

I didn't think they'd miss just one.

Darling, these aren't toys.

They're meant to represent
real warships in position

- to protect England.
- Some were aimed at Scotland.

Will you use them to fight Queen Mary?

Only if necessary.

Mary's so nice. Did she hurt you?

No, not directly. Not yet.

Agatha met Mary in France.

You see, real queens sometimes

have very difficult decisions to make,

whether they want to or not.

I thought queens didn't have
to do anything they don't want.

- Darling...
- It's not quite that simple.

For example,

even a queen must go to
bed when it's very late.

If I were queen, I'd want
everyone to live in peace.

Then you would be a wise ruler indeed.

Good night.

Your Majesty,

I have news that couldn't wait.

What is it?

I found what you requested.

Reason to take military
action against Scotland.

There was a recent border
skirmish, not an uncommon event,

but in this case,
English blood was drawn.

Scotland would appear
to be the aggressor.

A justifiable reason
for us to strike back.

And our best chance to stop

Queen Mary once and for all.

Let me know when the
troops are in position.

On my order,

England will invade.

You wanted to see me?

I have good news for you. I have
found a way to compensate you

for your loss of the trade
routes on the Lennox Estate.

I am getting you the use

of a port owned by a man

called Lord Bothwell.

I know Bothwell.

- Did he agree to this?
- Well, no.

Not yet. I summoned him to court,

but he sent word that he was
too ill to travel at the moment.

Did he?

I think I might know
where he's recuperating.

Go around the market!

If you're looking for Lord Bothwell,

you'll find him in that tavern.

He's not ill, although
he might be drunk.

Are you saying that he lied to me?

- Another of his fine qualities.
- Huh!

If you're trying to
prove your support to me,

don't expect Bothwell's
help. He's no gentleman.

Although, I must say you
have consistent taste in men.

We should have invited Darnley along.

He likes taverns, too.

Darnley is riding all day.

And you're wrong about him, James.

Lord Moray.

May I have a word?

Go on, James. I can manage
Lord Bothwell by myself.

- What is it?
- After the English assassin,

you asked us too keep an eye
out for suspicious activity.

- And?
- We found something

at the village inn.

A traveler from England
arrived a few nights ago.

Someone registered a room at
the inn using forged papers.

Do you want me to gather
more men and search the rooms?

Actually, I think I ought
to look into this myself.

Hello, boy.

Nice to see you again.

James. I-I...

- James.
- I have nothing to say to you.

That wasn't what it looked like.

That girl, she means something to me.

You can't tell Mary.

I warned her about what kind of man
you are, but she wouldn't hear it.

She insisted on proving
herself to me, instead.

Because she thinks we can be happy

and as long as she doesn't find
out about this, maybe we can.

Don't pretend you care
about Mary's feelings.

You only care about yourself.

I won't let you hurt her.

If you tell Mary, you will
be the one that hurts her.

Not because she'll feel
betrayed, but because

this marriage is the one chance
she has to defeat Elizabeth.

We both know that Mary isn't safe
until she takes Elizabeth's throne.

Well, marrying me is
the most direct route,

and the key to her survival.

Even if that were true, I can't stand by

- while you carry on an affair.
- Then I'll end it.

You have my word.

You know I'm right.

You don't have a choice.

Fine. I'll keep your secret this time.

But if you betray my sister again,

you will pay with your life.

- Your Majesty.
- Lord Dunbar,

Lord Fenton, Lord Macdowall.

And you must be Lord Bothwell.

Too ill to stand?

I was in the middle of a
good hand, Your Majesty.

Oh, then by all means
don't let me interrupt.

Surely one of you gentlemen
can beat a three flush?

Well...

it appears I've just ran out of luck.

How can I help you, Your Majesty?

I'll be brief.

I need you to give my brother
James access to your port.

I don't give anyone anything.

I'm a businessman.

Though I am curious to know

why Lord Moray needs
my port when he controls

the trade routes on
the old Lennox estate.

Those lands are being
returned to Lord Darnley.

Ah, yes, the ambitious foreigner

that you seem so determined to marry.

Although you shouldn't.

You sound like James.

I don't like your
brother, but in this case

I'm inclined to agree with him.

I didn't come here to ask
for your marital advice.

Lord Moray needs to find a
new way to move his goods.

The Crown will
compensate you, of course.

How much?

The Crown is willing to pay five percent

of the trade profits...
that should be fair.

Make it 25%.

That's more than fair.

Fine. Do we have a deal?

Now that I think about it, no.

No? What do you mean no?

That port has great
sentimental value to me.

It was given to me by your mother,

Marie de Guise, for services rendered.

To honor her memory, I couldn't
bargain it away for any price.

So our negotiation has just
been a waste of my time.

Not at all.

My friends here have
trade routes of their own.

And now that they know how much
you're willing to pay for them,

I'm sure they'd be
delighted to negotiate.

I believe the starting price was 25%.

I'll take 30.

Did Queen Agatha enjoy
her royal carriage ride?

She loved it.

She only wants to travel
by parade from now on.

I'm sorry you couldn't join us.

So am I. I've been in meetings

with Ambassador Richards all morning.

About Scotland. I know
I've been occupied,

- but as your advisor, I strong...
- Don't.

You have enough on your mind.

Agatha, where's your doll?

I gave it to the kitchen girl.

She's never had a doll.

That was very generous of you.

I'm not going to need
it for much longer.

What's it going to be like
when I'm gone from here?

Oh, darling, we're not going anywhere.

From this earth, I mean.

Agatha, I, um...

I can't, um... I can't...

As you know, queens are chosen by God,

so I happen to know heaven
is a beautiful place.

Much better than any castle.

It's filled with
wonderful food and dancing.

And you mother will be there.

And she will pick you
up and hold you tight

and never let you go.

And once you are with her,

nothing can ever hurt you.

And you will never

feel afraid or alone again.

And even though you
can't see your father,

you will feel how much he loves you.

And that will never change.

So, you don't drink blood

or hunt children in the woods at night?

Those were ugly rumors

started by peasants.

You ran away, disappeared for weeks.

Admit it, Charles,

your mind is weak, you cannot handle

the pressures of being king.

Your brother was just going
through a difficult time.

It's all right.

I did run from court, and
from my responsibility.

Being king was more daunting

than I anticipated.

But after rest and
reflection, I found the truth.

Being king of France is a duty

I was born to.

I accept who I am and
I will not abdicate.

Spoken like France's one true king.

- Or a well-coached puppet.
- Leeza!

I won't be lied to again, Mother.

This is a cover-up,
and you're behind it.

I know how you work.

Charles is not fit to be king,

and if none of you will admit it,

I'll bring the Vatican in as judge.

The pope himself can decide
who should rule France.

How dare you threaten
my country or my reign!

You have no power over me.

Neither does the Catholic Church.

That is blasphemy.

It would be if I were Catholic...

which I'm not.

- Charles?
- What are you saying?

I'm saying

that I, Charles de
Valois, King of France,

am a Protestant.

He's a heretic?!

A Protestant?

- Are you insane?!
- No.

For the first time in a long time,

I am healthy and clear-minded.

Thanks to Nicole and her family.

Their faith is a source of strength.

- This is your fault.
- I should have your entire family

burned at the stake.

I don't understand. Charles is king.

I thought he could
practice any faith he wants.

I can. Henry VIII broke from Rome

and freed England of Vatican Oppression.

Under my rule, I will lead France

to a new golden age.

You're not Henry VIII.

And France is not England.

When England broke from
the Catholic Church,

it wasn't reliant on Rome or Spain

for financial aid, France is.

Not to mention, most of your
nobles and your privy council

are devout Catholics, myself included.

Even our personal income depends
on nobles, Catholic nobles.

If you think for one
moment they will stand by

while a Protestant king
bankrupts this country...

As Lord Chancellor, the man
who holds the purse strings,

I can guarantee you
that will not happen.

You need to go to your
sister immediately and recant.

I'm sorry, I will not
lie about my beliefs.

Not to the queen of Spain or anyone.

You asked me to return
to the throne, and I did.

A Protestant king.

What my sister Leeza thinks
is of no consequence to me.

You will tear this country apart.

If that's the price of progress,

so be it.

James, there you are.

I have in my hand papers that grant you

access to new trade routes that
more than make up for your loss.

Well, I'm sorry for your trouble.

Is that all you have to say?

Are you actually disappointed
that I've resolved this issue?

No. In fact, I'm grateful to you

for having gone to such
great lengths on my behalf.

But your issue was
not with my generosity,

but, rather, Darnley's character.

And so you are still not satisfied.

Mary, I know that Darnley
offers you many things.

An heir, a chance at the English throne,

but I-I still don't
think he can give you

the one thing you truly deserve.

Happiness.

Leeza, please don't do this.

There's no need to rush back to Spain

or to involve King Philip.

This is a family matter.

Charles is young.

It's probably just a phase.

Protestantism is not a phase.

It is a disease, and Spain is the cure.

And what would you have Spain do?

Forcibly remove your own
brother from the throne?

If necessary, yes.

Well, do you think that's wise?

France has a sizeable
Protestant population,

and if they learn that a Catholic nation

is trying to remove
their Protestant king,

you will have started a civil war.

Don't threaten me, Mother.

It's your responsibility.

It always has been.

We both know that you didn't come here

to promote Catholicism.

- You came to punish me.
- And why shouldn't I?

It's not as if you don't deserve it.

You're right.

I have failed you.

You needed something I couldn't give.

What do you want from me now?

You want me to do all
things that I didn't

do for you when you were a child.

Do you want me to comb your hair?

Do you want me to sing you to sleep?

Do you want me to love you more?

If I could go back in time

and be a better parent, I would.

I would change so many things.

It wouldn't matter.

Nothing can make up

for the sins of your past.

Then don't punish all of France
when you want to punish me.

Tell me what I can do now,

today, to make things right.

Do you know how expensive

your bed sheets are?

Nicole.

One silk pillowcase costs

more than my father earns in a month.

If you're looking for Charles,
you're in the wrong room.

His bed sheets

are very nice, too.

I know exactly whose room I'm in.

Charles is a lovely boy,

and being with the king has its perks.

But now that I know how
things really work around here,

I'm interested in getting
to know you better.

I don't blame you.

I am a fascinating man.

But the question is,

why should I be interested in you?

Because the king still listens to me.

I could...

persuade him to listen to you.

And that could be useful.

But you'll have to
make it worth my while.

- Hmm.
- I need gold,

and lots of it.

But if I ask the king, the
privy council would object.

So...

I'm turning to you.

- You're a fast learner.
- I am.

I know all kinds of things.

Agatha's sleeping.

She is exhausted.

By the looks of it, so are you.

Thank you.

For making Agatha happy,

for comforting her when I had no words.

I wish there was more I could do.

That picture you painted of heaven.

Your words tumbled out so easily,

the specifics so vivid, you didn't
even give it a second thought.

It's because it's what you told
yourself as a child, isn't it?

My father wanted little to do with me.

My mother was killed
before I turned three.

Later, they locked me in the Tower.

They accused me of treason,

and I never knew if they
were coming for me next.

I grew up with a sword
hanging over my head,

aware at any moment I could be slain.

So I told myself that story...

so I wouldn't be afraid.

You've faced death your whole life.

It can't help but to have shaped you.

Even as queen.

But now, I look at Agatha...

facing death with such
strength and courage.

And I wonder, can I ever be that strong?

Elizabeth, you are

that strong, and you have
more courage than you know.

Enough courage to face what
must feel like certain death

and still make the right decision.

Let's hope you're right.

You won't be climbing trees in it,

but your wedding dress
will be beautiful.

You don't seem happy.

Oh, I am happy, mostly.

Gave Darnley back his lands and titles,

and I salvaged the situation with James.

But there's something
about our conversation

that bothers me, it's like he...

knew something he wasn't saying.

Mary, James sees his
sister marrying someone

he doesn't approve of.

Can you blame him for seeming
less than enthusiastic?

I suppose I should be thankful

I have a brother who cares
enough to worry about me.

A letter for Queen Mary.

Another warning from the Loyal Watchman.

Every time he writes,
he speaks the truth.

But it's never been good news.

I don't understand.

It's quite simple, Ambassador.

I've changed my mind.

But the troops are positioned, they
only await your word for the invasion

to begin. Your Majesty,

this chance may not come again.

Ambassador Richards,

were you afraid of the dark as a child?

I believe I was.

And are you still afraid of the dark?

- Of course not.
- Exactly.

It would be foolish

to let our childhood fear

govern us as adults.

Mary has made no overt move against me.

Reacting as though she
had would be the actions

of a scared little girl.

Which I am not.

You tell your men to stand down.

I will not be remembered as
the queen who drew first blood.

Ah, blueberry pie.

Blueberries are out of
season, so I had them

brought in from Portugal.

It turns out a queen actually
can do whatever she wants.

Where are Lord Gideon and Agatha?

I'm sorry, Your Majesty.

She passed during the night.

You know, Mother, despite
all our difficulties,

I trust we've come to an understanding.

We certainly have.

Leeza is finally returning to Spain?

Yes, the viper returns to her nest.

Well, we're not out of trouble yet.

That farm girl

that Charles is so fond of,

I think she might have her
eye set on something more

than just a day at court.

We may have to get rid of her.

Not yet.

If she has Charles' ear, we may need her

- for the task to come.
- What's wrong?

The only way that Leeza has
agreed not to tell Philip

or the Vatican that
Charles is a Protestant

is if I remove Charles from
the throne and replace him

with his very Catholic brother, Henry.

But Charles has finally
embraced being king.

He's not gonna give up
the throne without a fight,

and if the Protestants
rise to his defense...

There'll be a civil war.

A bloodbath that pits
brother against brother

until one of my sons is dead.

That is my punishment.

If you want to know my opinion
on flowers for the wedding,

I like what you like.

See what a good husband I'll be?

I wanted to talk to you about
the seating arrangements.

I found out we have another guest.

Where should we seat Lady Keira White?

- Mary, I don't...
- Don't...

bother trying to deny
you're having an affair.

I'm sorry.

Keira is the love of my
life, and we were torn apart

by a lie.

She's married.

We have no future.

Mine is with you.

James tried to warn me about you.

He said that you were
selfish and reckless,

and I refused to listen.

Why should I listen to you now?

Apologies are for wives,
and I will never be yours.

You can't seriously be willing
to walk away from this marriage

just to punish me for one mistake?

Oh, no, the mistake was mine.

For thinking that we could have
more than a political marriage.

I was so stupid to think that
we could find love together.

It was only one time!

Why do you keep saying that

like it makes it better?

I can't trust you.

You have ruined everything
we might have had,

everything we might have been.

I knew that something or someone

was going to get in the
way of our happiness.

And I was looking in this
corner and that for all the...

the people and the threats

that I was protecting you from.

And all this time,

the enemy was you.

You don't love me.

And I'm willing to bet you never will.

In your heart you know that,

so what does it matter?

I'm giving up the love of my life

to marry you, but if you
walk away from this marriage,

you are giving up much more.

I know you, Mary.

You want England.

You won't, you can't,
let one indiscretion

destroy everything you've worked for.

If I do marry you,

it will be for the good of Scotland

and the promise of England,

and nothing more.

You will be my husband in name only.

And we will never be happy.

And I will never forgive you.
