Complete story — includes the ending

When news arrives that English soldiers are amassing near the Scottish border, Queen Mary asks King Henry for military aid but is refused. She tries to negotiate a deal for troops with the visiting Prince Tomas ( Manolo Cardona ) of Portugal. Tomas proposes to Mary, promising military aid and an immediate wedding, which Francis cannot give her. Queen Mary tells Prince Francis of Prince Tomas's proposal, which prompts Prince Francis to blackmail King Henry, threatening to tell Queen Catherine and Lady Diane of his new affair with Kenna. King Henry is pleased by Francis's initiative and agrees to send six companies of troops to Scotland. Bash rides out to deliver the orders to the troops but returns gravely wounded; someone warned the English, who ambushed the French troops before they could set sail. A distraught Francis kisses Mary for the first time and tells her to marry Prince Tomas for the sake of Scotland. Queen Mary accepts the Prince's proposal, and he sends a ship of his men immediately to Scotland.
