Bothwell holds his gaze until Darnley stumbles back towards the door.
Bothwell is struck by how weary Mary looks.
Your Majesty, you must reconsider divorcing.
But Mary snaps.
If I do that, James loses legitimacy.
Everything I've been fighting for, his position as heir, his claim to England, will be gone.
He'll have nothing to inherit if Danly continues to alienate every monarch in Europe.
You should be with someone more worthy.
To Bothwell's frustration, Mary cuts him dead.
My hands are tied, Lord Bothwell.
Bothwell's heart sinks.
He sees her face soften.
She shrugs her shoulders.
Maybe God will settle the matter for us.
My husband's last bout of syphilis nearly killed him.
Perhaps the next will be more... decisive.
So maybe next time he gets the clap, it'll kill him.
Bothwell studies Mary as she returns to James.
