Lord Narcisse: No one understands loss until they've felt it.
Queen Mary: We are married because I couldn't take England without you. What makes you think that you can take England without me?

•Mary was 7 months pregnant when held at gunpoint while her long-time companion David Rizzio was being butchered. His murder was lead by Lord Ruthven and he was stabbed 56 times by King Darnley and his friends.
•Two days after Rizzio's murder, a disillusioned King Darnley switched sides, and on the night of March 11/12, Darnley and Mary escaped Holyrood Palace and took temporary refuge in Dunbar Castle before returning to Edinburgh, Scotland on 18 March.
