Katherine Howard : Who's there?
King Henry VIII : Henry.
Katherine Howard : Henry who?
King Henry VIII : The King.
Katherine Howard : Oh, the King, not the man.
King Henry VIII : Unlock the door.
Katherine Howard : Isn't it rather late for a maid to unlock her door to a... man?
King Henry VIII : On, come on, unlock the door.
Katherine Howard : Is that a command?
King Henry VIII : Yes.
Katherine Howard : To the King, then, not the man.
[lets him in and kneels]
King Henry VIII : Don't do that. I'm leaving me crown outside.
Katherine Howard : You've left it outside with my reputation, sire.
King Henry VIII : No one saw me, Katherine, I swear. Can't you forget the King and forget the crown, forget everything... you told me once I was a man, uh? What do you say if I'm not the King?
Katherine Howard : Get out of my room!
King Henry VIII : What? Whyyy...
Katherine Howard : That's what I *would* say, if you were not the King. Since you are the King, I expect your command.
King Henry VIII : Command? It's a poor thing to command in love.
Katherine Howard : Love? Who is in love?
King Henry VIII : I am, with you.
Katherine Howard : Love eternal, since yesterday afternoon, until tomorrow morning?
King Henry VIII : When I say love, I mean love.

Thomas Culpeper : I never should have come, Kate. We can't go on like this.
Katherine Howard : I know, it's dreadful, seeing each other every day and never being alone together...
Thomas Culpeper : Oh, it's not that, it's... it's being torn in half between you and the King.
Katherine Howard : But, Tom, we belong to each other!
Thomas Culpeper : No. We belong to him.

Thomas Culpeper : Don't you realize what I'm feeling, Kate?
Katherine Howard : For the king, yes. But for me, what?
Thomas Culpeper : For you? Have you ever stood on the edge of a cliff and looked over? It draws you, tugs at you to hurl yourself down. You know that if you look again, you're-you're gone. Are you asking me to look again, Kate? Are you?
