This show has a tendency to take odd turns from one episode to the next. Prime example right here... and everything having to do with Tomas, really.

I love when they wink at history. Stunted, heh.

LIP BITE!!!!

:love: and :in_love:

Forest=field
No red flowers=tons of poppies
Bash prostrate on the ground=he killed Tomas

I do hope the show acknowledges the ridiculousness of this prophecy. Maybe Francis will be the one to point out the lack of poppies. Or lions.

This might be my absolute favorite Mary moment. Her taking control. Of course it doesn't hurt that Francis is so completely smitten, lustful & and blown away by her here.

I love that he loves her strength. Here and in 1x07, he is such a goner all because his woman is a force to be reckoned with. Just doesn't get any better than that. :sigh:

well the lion is supposed to symbolize the mark on his sword (hence 1x08)

I know. I was being facetious.

The lion was laying on the floor with a bleeding gut while the dolphin slayed the dragon.

why is Francis the dolphin?

or are you referring to his title?

:lol: Basically

I still think prophecy is about the English fighting Portugal. That is my belief. (Unfortunately until proven otherwise)

I think so too.

Crazily enough the Tudor crest and generally the English royal crest has both a lion and a dragon - red - on it.

This episode was interesting in terms of two things: It highlighted the relationship between father and sons. I liked how desperate Francis was to get his father to do right by Mary. He really wants his father to be ready for the alliance to go forward. It's actually kind of cute how he's running around scrambling to give Mary what he needs. It also highlights the differences between Francis and Henry's governing styles.

Love Francis's jealousy during the dance with Tomas. He looks like he's going to lose his ****.

LOL at Nostradamus and his visions crack me up. It's just so OTT

The dance with Mary/Tomas just makes me laugh at its ridiculousness. Sometimes this show has a campy feel to it that's funny.

Francis is so miserable. Mary is in a sticky situation. Oh the angst.

Greer/Leith :love:
That first kiss was lovely

Kenna/Bash had a good chem, but they really didn't take it anywhere
LOL at Francis blackmailing his father

the hug was everything then that pained kiss at the end and then he tells her to marry tomas!

Good call, shu, Tomas definitely fits in a despotic ruler mold.

The juxtaposition of leadership styles was interesting to me. Francis is collaborative. Mary is reactionary. Henry is just erratic while Tomas is just a despot.
