‘Reign’ season 2 spoilers: ‘Blood for Blood’ leads to trouble for Mary, Francis

While “Reign” may take some liberties at times when it comes to history, their upcoming October 30 episode entitled “Blood for Blood” is going to be making one thing very clear: The battles between Protestants and Catholics are going to be a major theme of the story, and will cause many a problem for Mary and Francis.

As if this was not enough, though, there is going to be another difficult story to Francis to deal with that touches on his past further. Meanwhile, Kenna will find a journal that could lead to someone else having a romance in the future. The CW, being the kind folks that they are, detailed much of this in the episode’s official synopsis:

“Tensions between Protestants and Catholics escalate when bloodshed at a Protestant service causes an already concerned Mary (Adelaide Kane) and Francis (Toby Regbo) to intervene on the eve of Greer’s (Celina Sinden) wedding. Bash (Torrance Coombs) and Leith (Jonathan Keltz) lead a search for the guilty that reveals a surprising secret about Castleroy (guest star Michael Therriault) that could destroy his union with Greer. Meanwhile, Francis receives an unwelcome gift from his dead father. Kenna (Caitlin Stasey) discovers a sex journal, with clues leading to the best lover at court, who just might be a match for Lola (Anna Popplewell).”

What should you really take away from all this? More than anything else, that “Reign” is still a show that has the potential for plenty more surprises. Just because the plague is over doesn’t mean that the drama is.
