Reign Season 4: Episode 15, Mary is Mom, our critic

Cinema 11 June, 2017

Check out our review of Episode 15 of Season 4 of Reign, which aired last night on the American channel The CW.

There is only one left. Yes, Episode 15 of Season 4 Reign is the penultimate in the series and next week we will find out how Mary’s story ends – for the CW, because we really know it already Ends badly . It is soon the end and yet it remains hard to believe after such an episode, somewhat disappointing on some points. In Scotland, Mary is about to give birth, but she discovers that Darnley is suffering from syphilis. This disease partly explains his behavior – and his visions – even though we do not really know what actions were on his own and which were led by madness. If Mary is once again ready to forgive her husband and do his best to heal, Darnley will prove once again that he can not be trusted. It’s been at least 5 or 6 episodes that we spend our time seeing scenes of reconciliation between Mary and Darnley before it turns and betrays it again and it’s pretty tiring .
Of course, Darnley is always guided by a higher authority – his mother in this instance – and we know that the two have had a tumultuous relationship in reality, but it is too repetitive as a pattern. Eventually, Mary gives birth and she barely has time to enjoy her son as Darnley runs away from the castle with the newborn. In the end, the moment we preferred was when Mary asked for help from her cousin Elizabeth, through a real and touching letter . Besides, in speaking of Elizabeth, life is no simpler for the Queen of England. As she gradually recovers from the death of Gideon, she is determined to take revenge. As she is persuaded that the culprit is the Archduke, She decides to send men to capture a boat that is supposed to bring wealth to Austria, in order to put him in the embarrassment. Unfortunately, everything did not go as planned and on his return, the crew of Francis Drake fell on the Spanish army and they sank two of their boats … As can be suspected, the King of Spain n ‘ Is not pleased to learn that a ship sent by the Queen of England has attacked her fleet.
If Drake brought Elizabeth into a dangerous conflict with Spain, at least she opened her eyes to one thing and she understands that it was Jane who poisoned Gideon … And hop, a simple gone for Tour . Finally, in France, the action unblocks a little and this notably thanks to the indisputable talents of Catherine De Medicis. Her character had not been featured enough in the last episodes and we are delighted to see her again in front of the stage, especially when it is to give Leeza a good lesson! Charles is now rid of Spanish pressure, however his quarrel with his brother is far from over. And to say that he and Henri are fighting for a young woman who only wants power … Let us hope that Catherine will finally make them listen to reason. Moreover, this episode brought bad news to Claude – and all the shippers of the couple Claude / Leith – since Leith is about to marry. The princess is collapsed but fortunately Catherine is there to make her understand that wanting to keep a promise to be a good person does not mean she still has strong feelings for Leith. Will Claude finally get to go with Luke? This is what we will discover next week in the final series of Reign – snif. What did you think of this episode?
