Spoilers ahead. Coverage follows the scope labeled below.

Plot summary

Queen Catherine informs King Francis, Queen Mary and Bash about King Henry II's poisoned Bible, which kicks off an investigation into who was truly responsible for the madness of the late king, and all of the extremely difficult problems that had followed.

King Francis, Bash and Queen Mary find evidence implicating Prince Louis, but Lord Narcisse finds stronger evidence that it was the doing of Queen Mary's maternal uncle, François, Duke of Guise. However, King Antoine really was behind the poisoning, and he had bribed Lord Narcisse into framing and killing the Duke of Guise before he could be questioned. King Francis still wishes to reconcile with Queen Mary, but she has secretly grown attached to Prince Louis. Lady Greer struggles to find a livelihood for herself as an exile, and befriends Sharlene (Linzee Barclay), a prostitute, and helps set her up with a customer.
