Season one of Reign is coming to an end (thankfully it’s already been announced as one of the shows The CW has renewed) and in the “Long Live the King” episode it appears the King actually might not be long for this world. Debuting on May 8, 2014 at 9pm ET/PT, “Long Live the King” was directed by Jeremiah Chechik and written by Wendy Riss Gatsiounis and Drew Lindo.

The Plot:

EVENTS REACH A BREAKING POINT WHEN THE KING’S MADNESS PUTS FRANCIS IN GRAVE DANGER  — Mary (Adelaide Kane) and Catherine (Megan Follows) form an unlikely alliance when deciding how to deal with the increasingly manic King Henry (Alan Van Sprang), which puts Francis (Toby Regbo) in jeopardy.  Bash (Torrance Coombs) finds a boy who lived to tell about his encounter with the Darkness, which makes Bash determined to end it for good at any cost.  Lord Julien (guest star Giacomo Gianniotti) reveals the truth about his motives, and Lola (Anna Popplewell), blinded by love, finds herself in a dire situation after she attempts to protect him.  Caitlin Stasey and Celina Sinden also star.
