Mary: When I look at you I see nothing of the King. Only that whore, your mother. My father never did anything so well as to cut off her head.
Elizabeth: Your Majesty forgets he was also my father.
Mary: Why will you not confess your crimes against me?
Elizabeth: Because, Your Majesty, I have committed none.
Mary: You speak with such sincerity! I see you are still a consummate actress. My husband is gone. They have poisoned my child. They say it is a tumour.
Elizabeth: Madam, you are not well.
Mary: They say this cancer will make you Queen, but they are wrong! Look there! It is your death warrant. All I need do is sign it.
Elizabeth: Mary, if you sign that paper, you will be murdering your own sister.
Mary: You will promise me something? When I am gone, you will do everything in your power to uphold the Catholic faith. Do not take away from the people the consolations of the Blessed Virgin.
Elizabeth: When I am Queen...I promise...to act as my conscience dictates.
Mary: Well, do not think to be Queen at all, then. You may return to your own house at Hatfield, but you will remain there under arrest until I am recovered.
