As the ninth episode of the third season of the period drama series Reign, "Wedlock" follows the story of Mary, Queen of Scots, as she faces a potential arranged marriage to Don Carlos of Spain. This episode follows the aftermath of Mary's last attempt at securing her power and protecting her friends from her enemies, as it becomes increasingly clear to Mary that she needs a politically advantageous marriage in order to solidify her reign.

The episode begins with Queen Elizabeth of England sending her trusted advisor, Gideon Blackburn, to French court with a proposal to wed Mary to Don Carlos. Mary is initially excited at the prospect of marrying a handsome and dashing prince who is adored by his people, but her hopes are quickly dashed when she learns that Don Carlos is mentally unstable and has a history of violence towards those around him. Despite the risks, Mary feels that she has no choice but to accept the marriage proposal in order to secure her place on the throne and maintain peace between France and Spain.

As preparations for the wedding begin, Mary's friends and advisers become increasingly concerned about the prospect of her marrying Don Carlos. Catherine de' Medici, Mary's mother-in-law, fears that the union will lead to war with Spain, while Mary's friends, Greer and Lola, worry about Don Carlos' potential for violence and the danger he poses to the people of France. Meanwhile, Mary's own feelings become complicated when she begins to develop feelings for Gideon, the very man who has been sent to arrange her marriage to Don Carlos.

Tensions rise as the wedding draws closer, and Mary must decide whether to risk everything on a politically advantageous marriage or follow her heart and pursue a relationship with Gideon. The episode ends with a shocking twist that leaves Mary's future uncertain and sets the stage for the remainder of the season.

Overall, "Wedlock" is a gripping and emotionally charged episode that highlights the challenges faced by powerful women in a male-dominated world. Mary's struggle to balance duty and desire, and her determination to navigate a complex web of political alliances in order to secure her power, make for a compelling narrative that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. With stellar performances from the cast and a captivating storyline, "Wedlock" is a standout episode that sets the stage for the rest of the season and leaves fans eager for more.
