- Margaret Beaufort: You shall resume your maiden name, and your son will be called a bastard. But you will be treated in accordance with your royal birth.
- Cathy Gordon: So I am your prisoner?
- Margaret Beaufort: You are our guest.
- Cathy Gordon: What if I don't wish to be your guest?
- Margaret Beaufort: Then you may leave your son and freely return to Scotland.
- The Boy: We will change our plan. I will give up my claim.
- Cathy Gordon: No! You can't deny your birthright. And if you did, the Scots and all of Europe would abandon you. The only thing that keeps you safe and us with you is if you hold fast and they back us.
- Henry VII: You will dine with me this evening.
- Cathy Gordon: I have no appetite, Your Grace.
- Henry VII: You are without a husband. I will make sure that you're taken care of.
- Margaret Plantagenet: My Lady aunt, if I could mount a rescue, my brother would be free.
- Margaret of Burgundy: They will never let your brother out. Your only hope of freeing him is putting Richard on the throne.
- Henry VII: What Jasper would have told me in the hour before he died? It hovers on the edges of my mind. Sometimes in the night, I think I hear him whisper it, but as I lean in close to his lips, all I hear is the rush of the wind. Nothing.
- Margaret Beaufort: He would have told you that he loves you. That he sacrificed his life to put you on the throne and you must keep it, or you will betray his memory.
- Richard Pole: The Queen says you insulted her and defied her. You must apologize. Take care or they will never let your brother out.
- Margaret Plantagenet: No, they will never let my brother out in any case. I know that now. And I am tired of being a trembling flower and hoping it might make them feel their conscience.
- The Boy: I am the son of King Edward the IV and Queen Elizabeth Woodville! I live through battle, walk through fire and I will have the throne of England!
