Reign Season 4: Episode 4, A Wedding, Engagement and a Surprise Return, Our Critic
Check out our review of Reign’s Season 4 episode 4, which aired last night on the US channel The CW.
It would not be an episode of Reign without last minute twists, an express wedding and some betrayals. “Playing With Fire” , which was broadcast last night, obviously includes all of these features and once again offers us an entertaining and intriguing episode. Let’s start with what’s happening in Scotland, while Mary is taking a well-deserved vacation with Greer. These were soon interrupted by Lord Darnley’s impromptu arrival. Finally, it was an opportunity for the two characters to get to know each other, because in Reign’s Season 4 episode 3 , Lord Darnley had gone before he even addressed the Queen. One senses at once that there is a certain tension between them, But it seems to be on the same wavelength : their union would be purely political . Their conversation is quickly interrupted by James who announces to his sister that John Knox is still preparing a dirty blow. Fortunately, Mary responded to the quarter turn and managed to thwart her plans to discredit her with her Catholic supporters. Their victory is quickly spoiled by a village house that catches fire and Mary proves once again that she is devoted to her people by staying there and helping to stop the flames.

A few minutes later it was Lord Darnley’s turn to play the heroes while another house caught fire. Later, after agreeing to marry Lord Darnley, Mary receives a suspicious letter accompanied by a piece of burnt wood, telling her to beware of Darnley. Has Mary just accepted the marriage request of a man ready for anything for power? In England, Elizabeth is forced to make friend-friend with a wealthy noble Catholic so that he and her fellows will not turn against her after the announcement of the marriage between Mary and Lord Darnley. Once again, Elizabeth faces a more misogynous man than ever and it is with all her ingenuity that she will succeed in making him change her mind about him. But if Elizabeth succeeds in persuading Lord Maxford to plead allegiance to him, She is losing one of her most faithful advisers: Gideon. Not only did the Queen of England use him over and over again, but now his daughter was dying and he could not spend time with her, too busy to satisfy Elizabeth’s needs. Poor Gideon .
Finally, in France, all eyes are turned to Claude while she has begun to have a relationship with a married man! Obviously, his older sister Leeza does not approve at all and she hastened to put an end to this masquerade deciding that Claude must be sent to a convent. Catherine then asks Narcisse to do everything possible to prevent this from happening and Claude finds herself confronted with a complicated choice: either she goes to the convent or marries Luc, the son of Narcisse. Being always in love with Leith, the choice is particularly difficult for Claude, fortunately she can always count on the support of her mother who does not hesitate to tell her that when the time comes she can always have her husband murdered. Catherine, that’s why we love you! However, This marriage seems a little too good to be true and we are right to be wary since Leith makes his comeback while Claude is about to consume his marriage with Luc! Leith is alive! Unfortunately, Leith is taken away by the men of Narcissus and God knows what will happen to him. Also, be aware that the next episode of Season 4 of Reign will be released on March 17th and we should learn a little more about Lord Darnley, as shown in the promo video above.
