Reign "Fated" (Part 4)

The person carrying the cup is the one having difficulty breathing. She keeps stumbling, knocking into walls and tables. Her cup is filled with a liquid with a green tint. The woman continues to move along, coughing as she goes. Clarissa is still following her. The woman is still moving through unpopulated areas of the castle, coughing as she moves. She stops at the top of a set of stairs, leaning against the wall. Clarissa stops just behind her, looking at her before pushing her. The cup goes flying, spilling the liquid and crashing to the floor. Francis tells Mary she is no longer alone in her struggles. He admits he would die for her, which makes her frown. Before either can say anything, a scream is heard and they rush from the rooms and towards the sound.

At the bottom of a set of steps several people surround a body. Lola turns to Mary, saying the servants found her and they came searching for Mary. Aylee is on the floor, a pool of blood surrounding her head. She tells Mary that she was told she would never return home again. She tries to speak, but is having difficulties. She tells Mary that there was too much bloodshed for her and they must go home now, before she dies. Everyone is surrounding them, crying, and Kenna looks to see a cat lick the spilled drink. She remembers Aylee drinking from the cup earlier.Mary gets up, wiping Aylee’s blood from her hands and onto her dress. She sees Nostradamus at the end of the hall and remembers what he told her. She tells him he was sent from hell and that he is the devil. Francis attempts to comfort her, but she pushes him away and continues to cry.

Diane tells Bash that Catherine knows about her plans, but will keep their secret for a trade. Bash asks what the try was and Diane admits she didn’t do it because she couldn’t live with herself if she did. She remembers smelling the jar with the poison once Catherine left her alone in Henry’s rooms, then throwing the jar and watching it smash when it hit the wall. Diane pulls him to the side, saying Catherine cannot hurt them if she cannot find him. She tells Bash of her plans to go to Henry when he travels, making him see reason regardless of what Catherine tells him. She thinks that once Francis weds Mary and he acquires England, Henry won’t care anymore and they will once again be under his protection.

Nostradamus looks down at Aylee, saying she was poisoned and questioning if he should suspect the queen when he knows the affects of this particular poison. He lifts Aylee’s hand and shows her finger tips, mentioning the blackened skin and the smell of flowers. He says the poison is one of his own, not Catherine’s, and then asks if he was being watched. He asks Clarissa, who he was speaking to all along, why she killed Aylee. Clarissa says that Mary needed to believe Nostradamus’ prophecy or she would have married Francis and caused his death.

Nostradamus realises Clarissa sees Mary as a victim of fate, much like herself. He tells her that Mary is a beautiful queen. He then grabs Clarissa and brings her closer to Aylee, telling her to look at what she had done. He pulls off her hood and tells Clarissa that she killed a child of God and made Aylee her victim, not one of fate. Clarissa has missing patches of hair, which is the only thing seen. He tells her she brought it on herself as he pulls Clarissa behind a curtain and up a flight of stairs.

Mary is packing to leave, and Greer asks about her alliance to France. Mary says she will find a new alliance, that the current one has cost them enough already. Mary believes in Nostradamus’ gift, and she cannot lose someone else she loves. She asks them to come with her, but Lola says they can’t. She knows Mary would be able to get away faster without them tagging along. Lola also says she knows if they tell Francis, he will try and stop her. Mary says she will send for them as soon as she can, and that they will all return home to Scotland.

Francis follows Mary into the hall, saying he doesn’t understand and wants to know why she didn’t tell him before.  She says she did, she told him she was afraid and worried. Francis says it doesn’t matter, he wants to marry her without any stipulations, that he loves her. Mary cannot trust that, reminding him of when he told her that as royals they cannot make decisions based on love. They have too many responsibilities to their countries and the lives of their people to make life choices based on love alone. She tells him she loves him, but she will not allow another person to die for her.

Mary is in the stables when she comes across a guard. He asks if she needs anything and she tells him she was just going for a ride. He says he will alert the guards, but she asks him not to. The guard tells her it is not safe for her to ride alone, and if the king finds out he let her, but Bash interrupts him. Bash knows the guard will get into trouble, so he volunteers to accompany Mary on her ride, and that he has horses ready for them. The guard is confused as to how Bash already has horses ready since he just volunteered, but leaves without questioning it further.When they are alone, Bash asks where she is going and what is wrong. She tells him she is leaving and he cannot tell his brother if he cares about Francis. Bash asks where exactly she is going, and Mary’s response is far. Bash tells her that far is his destination as well.

Reign "Fated" (Part 3)

When asked what she thinks, Mary says that both Catherine and Nostradamus seem to believe it. Mary also admits she couldn’t sleep for days when she saw Tomas’ banner unravel, showing he was the dragon, who went off to fight the English’s lion. Greer says they were just sailors though, and they did not actually fight. They do discuss that Tomas was actually slain in the forest though, where poppies were at the time. While discussing the dragon and the lion fighting on a field of poppies, Bash explains that as a bastard, Tomas gave himself the symbol of the dragon since he did not truly inherit one. He then shows Mary his sword, saying he took on the symbol of the lion since he would not inherit his father’s. Diane asks what Catherine wants, and Catherine admits she never thought she would want anything from Diane. She tells Diane how she doesn’t understand how she does it, having Henry stray from her to Kenna and then back again when he gets bored. Diane admits that she loves Henry for who he is, not what he can give Diane.  Catherine corrects her, saying she doesn’t understand how Diane can put up with it. Catherine puts up with Diane and the embarrassment in public because she doesn’t have Henry bothering her in private. Catherine wants Diane out of the castle, never to return, or she will tell Henry what Diane was planning. Diane thinks Henry would understand since he adores Bash, but Catherine tells her the timing is not on her side. Regardless of who Henry might love, his love of power is greater and he doesn’t care what he has to do when something gets in the way of it. Henry wants England, and legitimizing Bash would prevent him from getting it. Catherine is happy since Francis might now be considered Henry’s favorite son, since when he marries Mary Henry will acquire England as well.  Diane tells Catherine that Bash never wanted to be legitimized, and if he is killed due to what Catherine tells Henry, Henry will find a way to kill Catherine. Letting Diane leave the castle, with her life, will stop Catherine from saying anything to Henry. In addition to leaving though, Catherine wants Diane to share something with Kenna first. Catherine removes the jar with the poison from her bag, showing it to Diane, who correctly guesses that Catherine wants her to poison Kenna. Catherine explains that there are two things she does not forgive, betrayal and stupidity, both of which Kenna has in spades. In addition, Catherine knows Kenna will do anything to get to Henry, and once Diane is gone she knows Kenna will go after Catherine next. Catherine wants Diane to take one thing off of her plate, this, and questions why she must always be the one with blood on her hands. She opens the jar, smelling it, saying it smells nice and is jade. She then puts the jar down and tells Diane these are her terms, before leaving the room. Kenna has a tray placed besides her bed with food and a cup of tea. Lola, Aylee and Greer enter the room, sitting at the edges of her bed. Kenna asks Aylee to pass her the cup, and when she lifts it, Aylee says it smells nice and asks what is in it. Kenna says it is a mix of lemon and honey, but Aylee mentions smelling a spice in it.  Kenna thinks it smells floral, and says it must be to speed the healing. She offers it to Aylee, who takes it but hands it off to Greer to hold while she goes through her bag.  She says her parents had sent her to France with things for them all to wear upon Mary’s wedding. Lola says she always forgets how rich Aylee is, as her family owns half of the land Scotland, because Aylee is so modest. Aylee hands out pieces of jewelry to each of them, telling them all to keep it. Frost on windows is melting, which was part of Nostradamus’ prophecy about one of Mary’s ladies dying.  Someone is carrying a cup, and walking behind them is Clarissa. One of them seems to be having difficulties breathing.Francis asks what Mary means by testing fate. Mary thinks there is a terrible price to pay by getting everything that they were wanted. She believes this is only meant for the gods, and not kings and queens.  Word Count:749

Reign "Fated" (Part 2)

As Catherine enters the room to join in on the conversation that include Mary, Henry, and Francis. Henry tells Mary that when the Mary Tudor of England dies so will Henry VIII's line. He tells Mary that she is literally the next heir to the throne, because her cousin Elizabeth is a bastard born child so she has no right to the throne. Catherine tries to reason with Henry telling him that having a Scot on the English throne and dismissing one of Henry VIII's own daughter will cause an uprising and when there is was Catholics against Protestants will be a very bloody war.

Diane finds Bash and tells him what she thinks is bad news. Her connections in the Vatican cannot continue trying to make a case for Bash’s legitimization so he can become the next in France, since this is what is crushing Elizabeth’s chances in England.  Bash isn’t upset about this, he is actually happy since he didn’t want to be legitimized in the first place. Diane goes on to tell Bash that she is sorry for dangling Mary in his face, but he needs to forget about her. They discuss Francis’ warning to Bash a while back, telling Bash to keep his distance from Mary. Bash wonders why both Diane and Francis equate Mary to a cool glass of water and Bash to a man with a thirst. Diane tells Bash that there is a similar thirst in Mary, for Bash. She warns Bash though, telling him that he should be killed over her.

Kenna finds a servant coming out of a set of rooms and asks if they belong to Diane. When she is told they are, but Diane is not there, Kenna tells the servant to let Diane know that the king’s mistress would like to speak to her. When the servant leaves, a man approaches Kenna. He tells her that he heard Kenna mention she is the king’s mistress, and admits that he thinks Diane is younger than he originally thought. Kenna is confused at first, but doesn’t correct him in thinking she is Diane. He goes on to introduce himself as the priest she has been communicating with about Bash’s potential legitimization, and that he is sorry but they cannot continue since the pope is in favor of Francis and Mary’s upcoming nuptials. Kenna hints at Henry knowing, but is informed that he was kept in secret at Diane’s request. Kenna thanks him again before leaving him.

Reign "Fated" (Part 1)

Mary is sleeping against Francis' chest and she realizes that its already morning and is worried that the servants realized that she wasn't in her bed. Francis tells her that it's too late to do anything about it now and proceeds to tickle her, both looking happy and Francis hopes that Mary is pregnant and when she makes a fuss, since they're not wed yet, he tells her that it would just force Henry's hand and speed up the wedding process. They're interrupted by a knock on the door and the messenger says that the cardinal  is in the throne room and that he is currently in the throne room awaiting him.

The next scene shows Kenna lying in bed with Henry sitting on the side. She asks Henry to be dead honest about the Count's men beating her up at the feast. Kenna confronts Henry, saying that he has't been at her side and she asked the servants about Diane, who told her that they have see Diane in Henry's room and he said that Diane is just a friend and gives him council. Kenna asks him if he loves her and if he's willing to let Diane go for her. He says no, but apologizes sincerely, but Kenna blames him for the attack with the Count. Henry still chooses Diane to be his mistress.

Diane walks through the hallway towards the throne room and sees Bash and tells him that she wants to legitimize him and that it was all done in secret. Bash's response is that he doesn't want to have anything to do with his brother's job. At the end of the hallways walking towards the throne room is Mary and Francis and Diane concludes that if he wants to have the girl of his dreams, he would have to be legitimized. She tells him whether or not he gets her, Mary will have to wed France's next king whether it will be Bash or Francis.

Reign "Left Behind" (Part 2)

Later on that evening in Mary's bedroom; Kenna, Greer, Aylee and Lola are reluctant to help Catherine with her plan as they don't trust her, but in order to gain their trust Catherine tells them a story of how she was kidnapped as a child and tells them she was held hostage for years until she was rescued by the Pope after she prayed.

Catherine and Mary show the secret tunnel to Olivia and tell them how they are all going to escape with the demonstration of the knocks on the doors. Olivia then asks them why she's the one that has to do that; Catherine then tells her that the Count wont suspect Olivia for helping them.Catherine tells Olivia that if she fails her duties in any way that she will meet with the Queen's extreme displeasure and then shoves her into the doorway and commands her to close the doors.

About dinner time, everyone arrives and enjoys the feast and the Count's men are extremely pleased and are playing with the gold that was offered to them. Mary takes a good use of her time and makes an excuse to get away with her ladies and get to the secret door, unfortunately Olivia isn't at her post as she was earlier when Francis and the others came down. Mary and her ladies are caught by the Count's me and are returned to the feast. Catherine's shocked to see them come back, and get up telling the Count that Henry will go to war for his heirs; she begs the Count to not take her children and offers Mary and her ladies instead, but the Count cuts her off by telling her to "give him her heart and cut it out of his chest so that they might be able to understand him."

Soon the Count's men begins to manhandle the ladies and the Count tries to rape Mary as Catherine tosses the hourglass onto the floor to silence the room. The Count's men begin to have nose bleeds and die and the Count doesn't understand because there wasn't any poison in the food so they couldn't have died because of that. Catherine reveals that the men are dying because they touched the gold because it was poisoned and since the Count never touched the gold he still tries to rape Mary and then Mary ends up stabbing him and Francis comes in and cuts off his arm. Kenna is injured in the process and Francis takes her to the infirmary.

Later that night, Francis and Mary argue about why he stayed behind and that the Italians could have killed him and Francis tells her that they need to be together to stay sane.

Reign "Left Behind" (Part 1)

At the beginning of the episode Catherine and Mary are on the castle balcony watching Henry ride off with his army to a small battle involving peasants, talking about Francis and Olivia sleeping together and how Mary is handling the situation so well. Mary gets ticked off by the issue because she's not aware of the problem and goes stomping off to go find Francis. Catherine does everything to prevent Mary from marrying Francis because Catherine still believes in Nostradamus' foreshadow.

Mary finds Francis in his chambers with Charles messing around and Francis tells her about the Italian Count coming to France to visit and that he must be greeted by a king or dauphin or else that would be an insult to his people. Mary tells Francis that he'll have more time to spend in bed and that she's quite pissed about how Francis is "parading" Olivia around court while Catherine crows over her. Francis' excuse is that he just needed some time to get away from her so that he can forget that he can't have her.

Catherine and Francis are then seen in front of the hall preparing to greet the Count as he;s arriving; Catherine then attempts to straighten Francis' hair, as the Count comes in and Catherine and her so greet him, and soon Mary joins them and they have wine and discover the Count's motives for visiting. The Count had planned on holding the castle and everybody in it hostage until he receives satisfaction after he reveals that his so was held hostage by France, released but then he died on his journey home. The Count discusses with Catherine that they will negotiate: one Italian to another, meaning someone close to her will die.

Francis and Catherine negotiate with the Count by offering him 10 times the money he paid to have his son released, but the Count isn't interested. Francis then decides to offer himself as ransom by saying that the Count and his men can leave that night with the heir to France as their hostage. Catherine tells Francis that he's crazy, but the Count surprisingly agrees to the offer. Mary then wanders the tunnels under the castle looking for a safe way out; later she enters into Catherine's chambers and Catherine tells Mary that the Italians plan to take Francis and they don't intend to return him alive or even at all. Catherine tells Mary that there is a secret way out with loose stones, pitfall and are a death trap to anyone who doesn't know the safe way out; however Mary reveals that she does. Catherine then says that she will stay in place of Francis and encourages Mary that once they are safely out don't come back to look for her. She says that she will over herself as a sacrifice and that since she's the Queen of France no one would suspect anything out of the ordinary. Mary then begins to question Catherine about her being trustworthy or not. Catherine's immediate reply is that she is willing to go threw hell to get her son out of the place right now and Mary agrees.

Reign "Chosen" (Part 2)

While Francis guilts Bash over bringing the pagans to the castle doorstep and attempts to motivate his brother to make a decision about the sacrifice, Kenna brings her fellow ladies to Henry's chambers and tells them that she is officially his mistress. There is one thing that she is concerned about and that is Diane and Henry's initials carved into the floor tiles and she immediately requests for them to be removed from Henry's chambers. Her ladies conclude by telling Kenna that the title mistress won't chase Diane away.

Later on in the throne room, Mary and Catherine interrogates the guards to see who was responsible for putting the stag's hear in in Mary's room. Catherine even puts out a threat that she'll burn down all the servants houses if they don't present the information by midnight. Kenna talks to Henry about her concern with him giving her a 15 room cottage on the castle property and that he refuses to honor her request by replacing the tile. Later, that night Henry writes her name in candles on the castle lawn during a big fireworks display causing her to forget her worries and run into his arms.

Bash heads to the dungeon to retrieve a thief that he takes with him into the woods in order to take Mary's place. He's determined to sacrifice this man for Mary to ensure that the future Queen of France won't be in a danger from the pagans. Francis takes this moment to confront Mary about seeing her kissing Bash, and her explanation is that she wasn't thinking rationally during that time, and then Francis comes down on her for navigating court with feeling and heart rather than intellect and leaves her.

At night, one of the servants come into Catherine's chambers and tells her that she saw one of the royal guards carrying the stag's head. She didn't see the face of the guard, but did notice that he was covered in blood which meant that the guard had to change. Catherine immediately rushes out of her room in search of her personal guard, Robert, who told her that he had to change his uniform earlier that day and took advantage of that time to leave the castle. Back in the woods, Bash prepares for the execution of the thief and allows the thief to tie the rope around his feet and the thief pleads for his life and also mentions that he has a young child he has to take care of. Luckily, a few moments later one of the pagans approach him and they fight and Bash wins and he stabs the pagan in the stomach. While riding back to the castle the thief says that he's grateful that Bash hadn't planned on killing him. He says that everyone chooses their own path or else the king will, saying the fact that he lives in a town primarily Protestant but that he practices Catholicism.  Bash gets the thief to admit to knowing who he and his mother are before pushing him off the cliff besides them.

Finally Robert and the servant Sarah are put in jail and scheduled to be burned at the stake alive, Bash returns from the woods and Francis tells his brother that if he would have died out there, he would have deserved it. Francis informs both Mary and Bash that the three of them are rulers and they need to start acting with the clear heads. He gives Mary permission to spend time with others, except Bash, and says that he has to do this in order to be in control of the situation between them. After their talk, Francis goes to Olivia and hooks up with her, while Mary and her ladies stand by the window watching the execution of Robert and Sarah. 

Reign "Chosen" (Part 1)

Last time on Reign, we saw the boy that was sitting on the window warning Bash that he must choose someone to sacrifice or else the pagan sacrificers would choose for him.

When Bash wakes up from a nightmare, Mary finds the boy's necklace on her pillow and she assumes that it's a gift from Bash that he left in her form. One major thing that has to happen that day was the Henry was scheduled to return from Paris and Francis is relieved that the courtiers will finally stop swarming around him and he laments to Olivia that he doesn't trust Mary. Everyone becomes extremely excited for Henry's return and Olivia gets scolded by Catherine for taking too long to get Francis in bed. Kenna then takes offense at Mary presuming her to be a fool and the Queen of Scotland and sets her sight on Bash.

Mary then goes and talks with Bash about the gift she assumed he gave her but then becomes worried once he sees it and demands to talk with both Francis and Mary about the situation. He says that it's a threat from the Pagans that he was suppose to choose someone to sacrifice but didn't and the Pagans have decided to choose her as the person to be sacrificed. Francis thinks that the pagans are just trying to get at Bash through Mary and while she pledges to do some digging around the castle to see if anyone saw a strange figure go into her room, Francis tells Bash that he doesn't blame him for cutting the bodies down. The reason that he's so upset is that there are too many secrets clinging to the castle walls these days. Kenna, furious that Henry brought Diane back instead of breaking up with her in Paris like he promised. When she refuses to fall for his physical advances, he confesses that Diane will be staying at the cottage that resides on the grounds, though since that needs renovations, she'll be within castle walls for a while. 

Bash visits Diane, a former pagan herself, obviously worried about the debt that he's been forced to repay. She laments that the faith that she once held on so tightly to has become unrecognizable and warns Bash that if anyone at the castle knew of their connection to the pagans through her past, they would be burned at the stake and called heretics. As Mary is already marked and Francis will blame Bash if anything happens to her, Diane suggests that her son choose someone, settle up his debts, and learn to harden his heart toward Mary, since he's only being allowed to stay there due to her being in Henry's good graces. Across the castle, Mary is woken by a bleeding stag's head that someone strung up to her bed, the face of the dead animal looking her right in the eye. The way that those responsible were able to do their deed without being noticed by her? Poppy, which they put in the drinks of Mary and her guard. She also finds that she has the symbol from the necklace burned onto her hand, making Francis think that it might be dipped in some type of poison.

Reign "A Chill in the Air"(Part 2)

Right after Mary meets Olivia, she has a heart-to heart talk and Olivia reveals to her that Francis used to tell her that he was going to marry her and that they were once lovers. Mary can't believe that Francis would even consider marrying someone else, since they have been engaged since they were eight. Olivia also tells her that she is giving Francis that option and that he will have to ultimately choose between the two of them.
                                           
A little while later Nostradamus is checking out the carriage driver that Bash brought in from the woods. Nostradamus tells Bash that he has interrupted a human sacrifice and tells him to stay near the castle because he could be in grave danger and the Pagans would be out to kill him. Meanwhile, in the kitchen Olivia asks a server for directions and it just so happens to be the same man that ran out in the road and told the driver at the beginning of the episode to cut through the blood woods. She never saw the man, but recalled she heard the voice before, but ends up ignoring the thought.

Later on, Mary ends up interrogating Francis with questions about his intentions to marry Olivia and he says that they talked about it once and that they were in love before, but clearly states later that he is committed to her now. Olivia pays Francis a visit and offers him wine and Francis reveals to Olivia that he has made arrangements for her to stay in Paris and she asks him why he has to continue to push her away and that she still has feelings for him. Francis states that he has been engaged to Mary since they were six and that's not going to change. She finally gives in and says that she will stay even if she has to be his mistress. Kenna tells Mary that Olivia is staying, the servants are unpacking her bags in the West Wing. Mary doesn't believe it, she thinks it is a mistake. Kenna leaves, and Queen Catherine, approaches Mary. She reveals to her that Kenna is sleeping with the king and Mary is shocked. 

Mary calls Kenna out and asks her if she is having an affair with the King. Kenna confesses and reveals that the King has asked her to be his official Mistress, which means she no longer has to take orders from Mary.Francis rushes to tell Mary that Olivia is moving into the castle before someone else tells her, but he is too late. He lies to her and said that the family in Paris learned of her reputation and changed their minds about her staying with them, but in actuality he made the whole thing up because he wants her to stay and become his Mistress. Francis confesses that something happened between them, but he stopped it. Mary is furious, she demands Olivia leaves, and Francis tells her that she is staying. He also reminds her that there is nothing she can do about it because he is the future King.

Mary goes for a walk and runs into Bash. She sits down and drinks with him, and gets clearly drunk. She rambles about her drama with Francis, and Bash hangs on to every word. Then…she kisses Bash. Francis goes looking for Mary to apologize to her, but instead finds her kissing his brother.

Mary tries to apologize to Francis about fighting with him, she has no idea that he seen her kissing Bash. He is very cold to her, and walks off with Olivia.The Queen and Olivia are speaking behind closed doors. It is revealed that The Queen sent for Olivia, and brought her to France to break up Francis and Mary. The Queen wants Olivia to get pregnant, so Francis will marry her, and she won’t have to deal with Mary anymore.

Mary isn't as dumb as the Queen thinks though, she is holding a secret meeting with Aylee. Apparently Aylee fessed up about stealing her ring, and the two have been conspiring together to give the Queen fake letters. And, Mary has figured out that the Queen sent for Olivia.

The Pagan servant pays Bash a visit, he tells Bash that he owes them a sacrifice. If he doesn’t bring them a person to sacrifice, then they will choose a person for him. He tells Bash not to be afraid, it is a privilege to be sacrificed, and then the crazy Pagan jumps off the castle wall to his death.

Reign "A Chill in the Air" (Part 1)

What happens in this upcoming episode I'm going to talk to you about mind boggling. I don't even know how I should start this. In the last episode, Bash and Francis are off to find Tomas, they end up killing him and bringing him back to French Court and free Simon, the English envoy. Mary thanks Clarissa for helping her prove Simon innocent and Clarissa ends up sleeping under Mary's bed at night.
                               
Francis and Mary are at the castle discussing politics and Mary clearly tells him that she doesn't want to talk about politics and that she wants to talk about them. Francis declares to Mary that he is hers and only hers. Later out in the woods a blonde woman is staggering through the woods because of a carriage accident. Which later on we find out that the carriage accident wasn't actually an accident but on purpose for a human sacrifice to the Pagan gods.

                                  

Mary and her ladies are out in town and Bash approaches her and flirts with her. Her friends make a huge fuss about Bash liking her, but Mary is convinced that he just flirts with everyone. Greer is also busy looking for another potential suitor, seeing as though how everything fell out of place with Tomas. Even though she has feelings for the servant she 's been seeing, Leith Bayard, she knows that she is determined to wed into a wealthy family. Francis surprises Mary with a toy sailboat he has made for her and their intimate moment is soon interrupted by a servant needing to talk to Francis about the woman from the woods. As soon as Francis sees her he goes over to her a comforts her, leaving Mary high and dry. Bash tells Mary that the blonde woman is Olivia. She was in a relationship with Francis a few months before Mary arrived.

                                  

Francis takes Olivia to the castle and sets her up in a room and interrogates her with what happened in the woods. Olivia tells him that she doesn't know what happened exactly, only that the bandits were speaking a foreign language. Which totally is a giveaway because the only people we know about speaking a foreign language and is bad are the pagan sacrificers. Francis demands to know why Olivia has returned, she had to marry someone else. The only reason she came back was that her husband found out that she was in an intimate relationship before and left her.

Reign "Hearts and Minds" (Part 2)

                                           
During those few days that castle plans a mask party celebration for the execution of Simon, the English envoy. Since he was know to be the bad person behind all the events recently they planned to execute him at French Court, or at least until they find the person in charge of be the bad person. Little does anybody know about Tomas taking his assistant Miguel to the game fields, possibly boiling up plans to kill him before anyone can talk to him about the slaughter, Bash and Francis ride out to see if they can't intervene and Mary goes after Judith who manages to run down while leaving town with a new cloak.

Judith confirms with Mary that the seal of the man who tipped off the English is white, not red like Simon's , and that she would be able to recognize him if she saw him in person. Bash and Francis get to the game fields just in time to stop Tomas from killing off Miguel. Tomas ends up shooting an arrow at Miguel, but he ends up living and has a sword encounter with Bash. Bash ends up reopening his wound and begins to bleed. It's up to Francis to save them and ends up killing Tomas with a dagger in the heart. He brings Bash and Tomas' body back to the castle.
                                           
With Simon's execution approaching, Kenna begins to negotiate with the king hoping to kill off the time in hopes of Francis and Bash returning on time and for the evidence to be presented. King Henry tells her that justice cannot always wait and that Catherine tells him waiting makes him look like less of a king. Kenna counters by saying on the contrary, patience and grace is extremely what good kings are made of. Just in the nick of time Francis and Bash bring back the corpse of Tomas for evidence and say that Miguel and Judith can testify.
                                           
Simon ends up being freed and a position as English envoy to Portugal for his silence on Tomas' role in the ambush. Simon thanks Mary for acknowledging the mistake, an action that not many royals would be willing to take for fear of retribution and embarrassment. Mary's treaty and engagement would be reinstated, but instead of going along with the previous terms, she uses the fact that Scotland saved France from a ton of embarrassment and staved off war with the increasingly strong English to get France to begin holding up their side of alliance with Scotland.
                                         
She receives a visit from Francis later that night thanking him for all he did to prove Simon's innocence. Mary tells him that his hear is right more often than he knows, as he was the one who pulled back during their lakeside encounter. Francis tells her that she will make a true queen one day, though his head and heart still differ on where they stand. In the night Mary leaves the seal for Clarissa and tells the her that she hopes she doesn't feel alone any longer.

Mary gets into bed and goes to sleep, not knowing that Clarissa is laying under the bed and not in the stone passageways.... OOOH SO CREEPY HEHEH! Be sure to continue watching Reign.

Last time where we left off on Reign, Bash was sent to save and aid several companies Francis ordered him to protect for Mary and as a result of trying to help Francis, Bash was stabbed in the ribs and was gravely injured riding his horse back to the castle. Francis told Mary that there was going to be no other option to help save Scotland and her crown, so her only choice was to accept Tomas' marriage proposal and head back to Portugal with him and wed him.
                                     
                                      

In the beginning of the episode we are watching Francis and Tomas in an archery contest most of us would predict that Francis would be fairly good at shooting arrows, but to our surprise Tomas wins. At first my response was that oh Tomas was just really lucky to beat Francis, but then I realized that we don't really know Tomas' background very well so we don't know how good his archery really is.

During the contest one of Mary's uncles tells her to go on a stroll with him and during that stroll he mentions to her that it doesn't look very good for a king that his allies walk away freely from their treaties and that she should be begged to be release from the engagement with Francis. She tells him that it doesn't look good for her as a queen to beg to be released from her engagement to Francis so that she could marry Tomas. To be brief, if I were Mary I would hate to be in an engagement to Tomas because of his personality after she promises to be his wife and how he's really possessive and abusive to his subjects, but since the marriage is for their country's alliance she really doesn't have a choice.
                                        
Meanwhile Lola is sent by Mary to go visit Bash in Nostradamus' chambers. Nostradamus tells Lola that the wound is healing, but the illness is so bad that it could kill him. At this point I really don't want Bash to die, but let's think rationally here for a minute, he probably won't die because he's a brave and long lasting character so I don't have to worry about him. Anyways back to Nostradamus tells Lola to leave, but Bash insists that she stays and that looking at her will make him feel better.
Throughout this episode, Tomas does many different deeds to Mary to help strengthen their engagement and one of the kind efforts he does for her is him offering Mary a flower and at the same moment Francis sees him doing that. Tomas asks Francis if he has offended him by doing that and Francis assures him that he isn't offended at all. Mary accepts the flower and says that she's honored.

Reign "Kissed" (Part 2)

When Mary knows that Francis asked Henry and he refused Mary had to think of another plan. Mary then realizes that Tomas is the prince of Portugal so this would be the perfect time for him to lend her armies. So she makes a proposal to Tomas and asks him if he would be willing to lend her some soldiers to send back to Scotland. Tomas agrees to consider her proposal and says that he will meet with her another time to discuss the issue.

Tomas later sends for Mary and says that if she agrees to Mary him, he would send troops right away to Scotland to help her. Mary replies and says that she rejects his proposal because she has to marry a nation not a man at first. Tomas then tells her that he is already be claimed to be the next king of Portugal. Later that night they have a party in the palace and Henry tells Nostradamus to predict the futures of Mary's ladies. He tells Greer that she will fall in love with a man with a white mark on his face. He then tells Mary that the lion will fight the dragon in the field of poppies. Mary gets angry and questions his loyalty against him. Tomas asks Mary to dance with him and both Bash and Francis keep tabs on her. 

After awhile, Francis tells Bash that he should send people to help Mary. But after he comes back Bash is gravely wounded and everyone fears his life for him. He tells everyone that he never made it to the battle and by the time he got far enough he was ambushed by a group of people. Henry condemns Francis and teaches him a lesson for not following instructions. When Mary finally catches up to Francis, he tells her that he should marry Tomas and that it would be for the better because he could actually send troops to Scotland. Mary then goes and finds Tomas and says that she accepts his proposal  and that in the morning his men would set sail for Scotland. Once in the morning she sees one of the ships having a green dragon on the flag and remembers that this was related to Nostradamus' vision.

Reign "Kissed" (Part 1)

At the beginning of this episode, Nostradamus predicts that somewhere in the near future there would be war within the outside world at in the castle.

The opening scenes shows all of Mary's ladies sitting by the lakeside talking about their kisses. Kenna begins talking about her kiss with a man and not a boy and that how she thinks that boys shouldn't be worth their time. After everyone mentioned their first kisses it was Greer's turn and she says that she's never really had her first kiss. She also mentions that her family can't afford any mess ups she could cause with other people because she was from a commoner family. But Greer does say that she has a thing for Tomas, the prince of Portugal, who is currently visiting France. Aylee warns Greer that she should be careful since she isn't titled. Aylee says that princes only marry for allies. But Greer just ignores Aylee's warning and says that Tomas isn't like a King's bastard and won't ruin her. Suddenly a maid runs towards them and tells Mary that her uncle has come to French Court and would want to speak with her immediately.
                                    
Mary leaves her friends and talks with her uncle about her marriage to Francis. He also requests her to plead with the King and Queen to send more troops to Scotland because they are currently being invaded by the English all the time. He tells her as a Queen she must fix this problem and help her country and by fixing the problem she takes this to King Henry pleading for him to lend her some of his troops. Henry then gives her excuses about how he needs his men to fight off more borders that attack France. He tells her that Scotland only has to worry about England and that France has to worry about Italy, Spain, England and Germany. He does tell her that he would help send materials and supplies for the troops, but no more, no less. Mary leaves the room angrily and Francis runs after her saying that he completely agrees with what she has to deal with and that he will talk peacefully with his father when he has time.

While Mary is still angry with Henry, she goes and plays ball with Charles and just so happened to kick it so hard that it got stuck to the top of the tree branch. She climbs up the tree and finds out that when she finally retrieves the ball, Charles was already tired of waiting for her. But Greer and Tomas just so happen to pass by seeing Mary stuck in the tree. Mary tries to jump down and lands on Tomas and she asks him if he's ok and he says he's fine. He then leaves and Mary tells Greer that she didn't leave a very good impression on him. Greer tells her that it's ok and she tells Mary of her evening plans with Tomas. She says that, that's when she plans to have her first kiss.

Later on in the castle, Bash and Henry are having a fencing duel and Bash continuously lost battles and Henry suspects that there's something on his mind that's not letting him focus. Shortly after they continue to duel Francis comes into the room and begs Henry to send troops to Scotland. He makes a deal with Henry that if he wins the round he will send troops. They begin their duel and Francis wins and say that Henry has to send troops. Henry's reply to Francis was Kings have to always make empty promises and refuses.

She tells Francis that there wasn't any possibility for her escaping because it was only in a matter of couple of minutes before her returning to the room with the guards.

Clarissa leaves a key to a door after she runs down the dark tunnels and Mary happens to then go exploring seeing which door the key she gave her leads to. To her surprise she ends up opening the door to Simon, the English envoy's room and in that room there was the girl who was burning up in the dress. She finds out from Simon that the girl in the dress was a threat to scare her out of France and tell her to move back to Scotland.

Later in the bloodwood, Bash is still in the search of finding Collin. As he's passing by trees he feels blood dripping down and sees that Collin is hanging from the tree upside down with his neck slit.

Reign "Snakes in the Garden" (Part 1)

In the beginning of this episode Mary is unsure of whole is plotting to get rid of her and her crown. Of course she knows that the English want her crown and her country, but from information Collin has told Lola it's someone in the French Court that wants her gone.

In the main hall, Queen Catherine is informing her middle son, Charles, about his young engagement to little Madelyn, who is nervous to meet him. Mary offers the King and Queen that she will also accompany Francis and Charles on their way to meet Madelyn. After Mary offers to accompany them, Catherine begins to make up reasons that she shouldn't go and that it wouldn't be a safe journey for her, but Mary tells her that she should go because she was in a similar situation as a young child so she could reassure Madelyn of their marriage.
                                                                                    
They soon depart for the coast and finally meet Lady Madelyn. But all of a sudden they realized they weren't greeted by a French ship, but rather an English warship. Francis begins to freak out and calls for the guards to get Mary out of the area so that she could be safe. Bash arrives in just the nick of time and tells Francis to halt what he's doing and reassures that the English ship isn't bad because Madelyn's French ship took on water and the English were there to help her continue on to her destination.

Fortunately there's a party held in the castle for Prince Charles and Lady Madelyn and it took Mary's mind off things for awhile, at least until she met the English convoy, Simon. He questioned Mary about her engagement and bond between Francis and basically said that he didn't think that Francis would marry her at the end. He also tells her that the English tried to poison her at the convent and threatened her if she doesn't end her engagement with France, England would soon take over Scotland. Luckily, Francis came to the rescue and got Mary out of the conversation. He told her that she was shaking and that she was showing fear in front of the English. He asks her if she could be strong and show the kingdom that she was going to be a strong ruler.
                                     
The next day Catherine tells Mary that Collin was alive and that he was going to sabotage her once he got out of jail. Mary doesn't care because she knew that Collin was being framed for what he did but just requested that Catherine and Henry bring him safely back so that he may question him herself and that he could be a witness/evidence. Meanwhile outside Mary and Francis were watching Charles and Madelyn play a game. Francis is insulted because he has a feeling that Mary was accusing Catherine for putting Collin into jail. After playing a few rounds of the game, Charles leaves and goes over to a narrow, darkened, doorway. Mary finds him speaking into the doorway and asked him who he was talking to. Charles avoids the question but later told her that it was his friend named, Clarissa. Mary tells him that Clarissa might have visited her and helped her before.

Reign "Pilot" (Part 1)

Some may call me a historical geek, but let's be honest, I kind of am. I recently just started watching this show called "Reign" on the CW channel because my friend suggested that since I've been so into historical fiction lately I should probably check it out. So I watch the episode the first time and keep in mind I honestly have no clue on what's going on. The first thing I did was check out some sites that had information on the series and this first site gave me a pretty good overview of how the episode was going to play out.

Danger and intrigue lurk around every dark castle corner in this story of a young, Mary Queen of Scots. Thus begins the story of  Mary's adventures, obstacles, romance, and history in French Court

After spending a childhood of being safely hidden away in a convent, a teenage Mary Stuart arrives in France where she has been sent to Secure Scotland's strategic alliance by formalizing her arranged engagement to the King Henry Valois' dashing son, Prince Francis. While Mary stays at the convent hoping that it will safely keep her away from the English from wanting her crown she witnesses one of the nuns dying from eating the porridge that she suspects the English tried to poison her with. After realizing that she was of age to be married and that the convent was no longer a safe place for her to stay the nuns send her back to French court.
                                     
Upon arriving at French court, Mary reunites with her best friends, Kenna, Greer, Lola, and Aylee. She feels relieved because she doesn't have to deal with the French all by herself. While Mary and Francis get acquainted, Catherine asks Nostradamus about what he saw in his vision and he tells her, "It's all clear now, Francis' union with Mary will cost him his life."Later that day Mary and her ladies in waiting prepare for Elizabeth, Francis' sister's wedding. The girls explore the castle because they haven't been back since they were children so Mary goes back to rooms she remembered being in and just so happened to stumble in on Francis while he was sharpening his swords. She was feeling very unpleasant when she knew that he wasn't the only one in his room and about the phrase he said, "Husbands are not under the obligation to answer to their wives." She leaves his room unhappily and goes over by the lake with her dog. Her dog is scared by a noise and runs towards the woods. Bash just so happens to stop Mary from going into the woods in just the nick of time or else she would have been made a sacrifice to the pagan gods.

As the movie switches back to talking about the past, Joon-Ha is guilt-driven over his friend's attempt suicide and Joo-Hee's own guilt. When determined to stop causing Joo-Hee anymore trouble and hurt, Joon-Ha joins the army and goes Vietnam. While he's fighting in Vietnam, he looses his vision while trying to retrieve the necklace Joo-Hee had given him so many years before. Upon returning to Korea, Joon-Ha and Joo-Hee meet. While trying to hide his blindness, he tries to convince her that he has married and that she should move on with her life without him.

Though brokenhearted that their relationship cannot continue, she does move on and ends up marrying Tae-Soo, Joon-Ha's friend.  After they have been married for several years, Joo-Hee has a young daughter, Ji-Hye. Joo-Hee is then approached by the friends of Joon-Ha who relate Joon-Ha's last wish. He last wish is to have his ashes scattered by Joo-Hee in the river, where they first met. She later finds out that he was never married or at least not until he confirmed that Joo-Hee married Tae-Soo. She was then notified that Joon-Ha had a son, and she's heartbroken and cries.

Back in the present, Ji-Hye's story unfolds itself. Sang-Min reveals the feelings he has for her and those are the same feelings she has for him. Also the movie reveals that them taking shelter together was no accident. Sang-Min purposely left his umbrella behind so that he could join her under the tree during the storm. She tells Sang-Min her mother's similar story and tears stream down his face. Why do tears stream down his face? It's because he lifts the necklace from his neck and places it around hers. It's the necklace that Ji-Hye's mother had given to Sang-Min's father when they first met by the river. So then the circle is completed. Joo-Hee's daughter and Joon-Ha's son completed the love story which their parent's had failed to complete!  (366 words)

The Classic Part 1 (Korean Movie)

The movie begins with telling parallel love stories between a mother and daughter. The part of the story with the mother is told in multiple flashbacks. 

That classic starts with present day, the daughter, Ji-hye, cleaning up her house and she finds a box full of old letters and a detailed diary that told the story of her mother, Joo-Hee. Ji-Hye reads one of the letters and then it starts the flashback to her mother. The flashbacks are then interwined with her own story in which she falls in love with one of her fellow classmates, Sang-Min, who is involved with the school production.


Then the movie flashes back into the past with the mother visiting the countryside as a student and meets Joon-Ha. They both go exploring in the countryside, playing near a river. The river then became their special place. One day when a storm approaches Joo-Hee twists her ankle and they struggle to find a shelter place under a tree. After the storm passes, Joon-Ha then carries her on his back and they struggle home. When coming back home they encounter angry parents. Before they're forced to separate, Joon-Hee gives him a necklace, which he keeps close to him as a precious reminder of their time spent together.

Unfortunately, a third party prevents the deepening of their relationship. Joon-Hee has been promised to be a bride to bee to Tae-Soo, Joon-Ha's friend. But Tae-Soo finds out their attraction towards one another and helps them communicate in secret by using his name in place of Joon-Ha's in their letters back and forth. When Tae-Soo's father finds out, however he beats Tae-Soo. Tae-Soo tries to commit suicide so that will allow Joon-Hee and Joon-Ha to be together.


Back in the present, Ji-Hye falls for Sang-Min in which her best friend Soo-Kyeong is also interested in, but Sang-Min doesn't seem to notice. I remember in a cute scene that was similar to her mother's was that it begins to downpour and Sang-Min uses his coat to coverr both of them and escorts her to where she needs to go. Though the moment is precious she only believes that he helped her was only out of his generosity and not that he had any feelings for her on his part. (398 words)

Heirs (Personal Review)

At the beginning of 2014 last year, I was so pumped up and excited for this new drama  many of my friends were mentioning to me about called, "Heirs." I was like okay it has two of my favorite actors/actresses acting in the drama so why not take a chance and have a stab at watching it right? So began to watch it and Heirs talked about friendships, love triangles, and enemies, just like other Korean dramas would right?!

In the beginning of the drama it introduces 18 year old, Cha Eun-Sang who lives with her deaf mother. Her mother works as a part time house maid for a rich family. Eun-Sang's mother communicates with the family by writing what she wants and needs on a notepad with a pen. So life's all good right?! It is all good until one day they receive a letter from her sister who lives in the U.S informing Eun-Sang and he mother that she's getting married and that she need money sent over there. Eun-Sang's mother tells her to take money out of her own saving account and as a result Eun-Sang is enraged with the decision that her mother has made because of her sister.

So pretty much she arrives in America and knows nothing about it's culture and everything, but she does try to find out where her sister lives and when she goes up and knocks on the door her sister lives in and finds out she's living in a dirty house with a violent boyfriend and it turns out that her sister lied to her about getting married and she dropped out of school and works at a restaurant. She finds the place her sister works at and takes the money Eun-Sang brought for her wedding and leaves without saying good-bye to her sister. 

After that I was just like oh the plot was kind of interesting, but after reading the synopsis and all I decided that it was going to be a waste of time, I knew the story was going to have some cheesy ending. But as I continued to watch a little longer I just couldn't stand the plot cause it just got so much more worse and a lot of different characters kept coming in. So if you're fairly interested in this drama go for it and watch it, don't let my opinion drive you away from watching a drama you might like. (408 words)
