Season 2 Recap

("Enchanted" by Ruth Barrett) - [Duke] The country will look to you, Ma'am, for direction.

- I will be ready Duke.

(horse hooves pounding) (laughing) (horse snorting) - [Man] The country will be in safe hands, when you produce a Prince of Wales.

(crowd cheering and clapping) What my country needs right now, is a Queen, not a broodmare.

(wheels rolling on grass) - [Soldier] These are difficult times.

(crowd clamoring) Our country's in a state of unrest.

- Dear Lord M, it's time for you to return to the Palace.

You don't talk like you used to.

Welcome to Buckingham Palace, Duchess.

Your majesty.

- The queen would like you to come back.

- Are you so naive, that you do not realize that everything you do is political?

(shoe striking) - Perhaps Victoria doesn't like you trying to do her job.

- Well I suppose we should never understand the fairer sex.

- Hmm.

- [Albert] Lord Melbourne is ill.

- Gravely so.

- I've learnt so much from you, you know?

- (crying) I can't bear it.

- [Albert] Yes you can.

(gasping cry) (screaming) Our babies look like frogs to me.

(door creaking) - You're not the only woman who has felt herself in low spirits after the birth of a child.

- Leopold believes that he is my father.

Do you know what you've made me?

A sham.

- All that matters to me, is you standing by my side now and always, together.

(ship horn blaring) - A visit to France.

I wonder Ma'am is that wise?

Louis Philippe is a master of duplicity.

- Just for a moment, Albert and I, we were free.

Imagine if they never find us.

- [Woman] I think Scotland was an escape for everyone, Ma'am.

(feet pounding ground) (whooping) - [Man] I can't let you jeopardize your career.

- That is for me to decide.

I have an illness, an illness which means I cannot marry the woman that I love.

- I have never wanted you to have to choose between the Prince and me.

- Oh Lehzen.

(carriage rattling) (gun firing) (screaming) - Drummond, talk to me.

- I have decided to resign.

- I want you so much, Nancy.

- Not as much as I want you.

- We are no longer Tudor.

- No.
