Henry moves quickly to embrace Lutheran ideas, break with the Catholic Church, and marry Anne Boleyn in a secret, private ceremony, but his decisive changes and new loyalty oath pit him against his chancellor and longtime mentor Thomas More; the queen gives birth to a baby girl, Elizabeth, even as Brandon and others sow seeds of doubt about his new queen in Henry's mind; after a near-fatal jousting accident and Anne's miscarriage, Henry finds a new love in Jane Seymour, sealing Anne's doom.
