In this episode: Anne Boleyn (3), Cardinal Wolsey (3), King Henry VIII (2), Thomas Boleyn (1)

TTThomas Tallis

I'm going away.

WCWilliam Compton

You're going away, why?

TTThomas Tallis

Cardinal Wolsey is going to France. He invited me to go with him. With other musicians.

WCWilliam Compton

Must you go?

TTThomas Tallis

You know very well that an invitation from a cardinal is like an invitation from a king. We little people must put our hands into the fire if invited to.

Forgive me, I spoke of things I should not.

No, no, I give you leave that we may always speak freely with each other, honestly, openly and with a true heart. For me, that is the true definition of love.

Dr. Knight's secret mission has been intercepted

Ah, Doctor Knight! Off to the Vatican, are you? And what have you here? Shows letters One is a letter requesting a nullification of the dispensation the King got to marry Queen Catherine. The other is a letter to His Holiness saying that if a divorce cannot be granted, that the King be allowed to take a second wife to father a son. Not only is the King challenging a papal bull, he is asking the Pope to sanction bigamy!

NNorfolk

Well, the King is plainly in love with you. Don't you see, niece... It makes a man, any man... extremely vulnerable.

How do you like your charge, sweetheart?

I... At first, I confess, I did not like it so much. I did not care for the King, but now, I... Now I...

NNorfolk

Anne, it would be wise for you not to be fooled by your own masquerade. It is your duty to use his love to our advantage in supplanting Wolsey.

The Cardinal stands between us... and everything. And it is now in your power to do him a great hurt, and we expect you to do so.

Let me know the moment the cardinals arrive.

Cardinal Wolsey is writing letters. Some time passes when King Francis comes to his chamber

Your Majesty.

KFKing Francis

You did not hear the news?

What news?

KFKing Francis

The cardinals are not coming.

CWCardinal Wosley

Why not?

KFKing Francis

The Emperor has decided to release the Pope from capitivity. Pope Clement ordered all cardinals back to Rome as the Vatican is once again in session. There is nothing I can do about; I am terribly sorry. They only take orders from His Holiness.

Cardinal Wolsey has been dealt a bad blow

King Francis{translated from French}: The wheel turns my friend.
