No matter what happens, I love you

1. M🥴sh Betraying your brother like that is absolutely disgusting.

2. M🤢nde🤢🤢🤢🤢 Need I say why? Dumb cheatin pug face anyways.

3. Gideon. To be fair to Gideon I didn’t hate him. I actually liked him as a friend and ally to Mary but as a romantic interest? Ew no. He also looked old enough to be her dad😬

CATHERINE: Together with the Englishman? Did you sleep with him?

CATHERINE: Well, that's convenient, for someone.

NARCISSE: Clearly Morel was killed to tie up a loose end.

CATHERINE: Let me get this straight. We're looking for someone with an aversion to loose ends, a penchant for terror tactics, who wouldn't hesitate to kill a cardinal?...I know. It's you.

CATHERINE: Perhaps this has to do with your dear wife. I understand that she hasn't answered a single one of your letters.

NARCISSE: As I said, I have news. I told you before that I did not frame you for Francis' poisoning. Well, I'm here to prove it. A signed confession from the royal embalmer saying that he fled without removing Francis' organs. And as I extracted the truth from him, he confessed that he'd been bribed by Cardinal Morel. The very man who drove the inquest against you.

CATHERINE: You would have me believe that the Vatican has turned against me... a Catholic royal?

NARCISSE: Well, what if he were simply turned, not the Vatican? Any man can be swayed to a different purpose, even a man of the cloth.

CATHERINE: By whom?

NARCISSE: Someone who does not want you as ruler of France. Oh right, someone other than me. I only stepped in once the job became open, I swear.

MARY: Are you encouraging me to take an English spy as my lover?

MARY: I was lying to him, telling him my mission in Rome was a failure. The Vatican was steadfastly behind me. They've agreed to help me gather any forces I need.

CATHERINE: Oh, you're playing possum while building a Catholic army.

MARY: My enemies in England and Scotland can't stop me if they don't know my plans.

CATHERINE: The element of surprise will help when you arrive. You do have many Protestants against you... that zealot John Knox, not to mention the Highland tribes, with disregard for any monarchy.

MARY: Elizabeth cannot know, either. So Gideon must be kept in the dark.

CATHERINE: Is that difficult for you... to lie to him?

GIDEON: Mary, I... I'm so sorry.

MARY: Even if I tried to return home, who's to say Elizabeth would let me cross the English Channel safely? I'm trapped here.

GIDEON: I'm going to have to tell Elizabeth about this.
