Season 1 / Episode 7: - Brotherhood

David Shepherd: Just tell me who.
Michelle Benjamin: David...
David Shepherd: If I lose you to someone, tell me before I read about it in some newspaper... Some alliance? Something to help your father expand his empire?
Michelle Benjamin: It's not him; it's... a promise I made. It's *my* vow.
David Shepherd: I don't understand. Who... are you promised to? Who are you supposed to marry?
Michelle Benjamin: No one... ever. I... I was dying; by all measures gone. I swear I could feel my last breath coming; I could smell death in the room. I prayed to God... and I said, give me one more breath... and I'll give it right back. Let me have another after that, and I'll give it back again. From now on, every breath you give me, I'll use it to serve you - to live for you, for your work... And He listened.
Michelle Benjamin: [in a flashback, speaking to her father in her hospital bed] From this day forward, I'll earn this gift - helping others, not myself. Witness that I swear.
King Silas Benjamin: [wide-eyed in shock] No, stop; your debt is payed.
Michelle Benjamin: I live in service for Him, for them - for no happiness of my own, for no man.
King Silas Benjamin: I beg you, don't do this.
Michelle Benjamin: As you live, you cannot let me waver; promise me.
King Silas Benjamin: Michelle...
Michelle Benjamin: Promise me!
King Silas Benjamin: [grieved]... I promise you...
David Shepherd: [overwhelmed by her story]... How can I compete with God?

Season 1 / Episode 7: - Brotherhood

William Cross: Rose! Look - a party *everyone's* invited to.
Queen Rose Benjamin: [incredulously] Because he was left off a guest list?
William Cross: Beluga - you want some of this? It'll only spoil.
Queen Rose Benjamin: [laughing] Shutting down a city for want of an invitation. It's a party!
William Cross: He's my son... You've done worse for yours. You insist on keeping Andrew in the cold, you'd better learn to live in the dark.
Queen Rose Benjamin: You have no idea what you're dealing with; turn the lights back on, William.
William Cross: No; he needs to learn... and so do you.
Queen Rose Benjamin: You're my brother - but I swear I will have your head.
