Jack: She had no part in this. Thomasina: Her part she'll be glad to play. Your father wants for you a living death. To brick you into a wall with someone who loves you who you can't stand the sight of, until you produce an heir, which Silas will take and raise right this time. (Lucinda runs into Jack's arms) Lucinda: I don't understand. Jack: Thomasina, love. Please. You've known me since I could crawl. Thomasina: You went against the family. You're not charming anymore, Jack. Jack: Don't do this. Thomasina: It's not so hard. Just close your eyes and dream of someone who's dead.
Silas: Not bad right? Even you must be impressed today. You're welcome. I give and I am thankful for giving is a need. We understand eachother on that point. It was a mad idea you had in the first place. Kings, a monarchy in this day and age? I'm looking out on the city that I built in your name. This is what you wanted. Deny it? Then you can forgive me. Then I still have some role yet to play. (It begins to rain) Oh thank you! Thank you! Whatever you want, I am ready! (thunder) Him? But why? No! No, what about me!? What am I supposed to do?! Don't go! Don't go! (Silas returns inside) Thomasina: Sir? Silas: Find Shepherd. Bring him to the mansion. Tell him I listened.
Rev. Samuels: God does not take council with sinners. Recently you and I--we've been made unforgivable. Jack: We both knew my father had to go. Rev. Samuels: And all the others? All the innocents shot. Dead. The declaration of war. Jack: That's William. Rev. Samuels: We allowed it. Silas was right. I cannot accuse him and let myself go unscrutinized. Jack: I can make good of our mistakes. Once you put the crown on my head you will see how good it fits. Rev. Samuels: The crown will never touch your head. That is the hollowness that you feel and you know it. He knows it. And he will never speak to you. Jack: Why not? Rev. Samuels: You are not the one he wants.
Silas: So. Where are they? (pause) William Cross. Jack Benjamin. Where are they? (pause) I ask once more with words and then with blood. Jack: I'm here. I'm not gonna run. Not anymore. You said I couldn't be what I was. God said I couldn't be what I wanted. There is nothing left for me, but to die. Do it. Go on. Finish it. I'm ready. Silas: I can think of worse things for you than death. You could have had everything.
Sila's use of a fireplace poker against David refers to Saul's attempted murder of David with a spear from Biblical scripture.
