Michelle Benjamin:
You'd let his brother die, for jealousy? What, one too many magazine covers?

Jack Benjamin:
I'm not jealous; he can have all the magazine covers he wants.

Michelle Benjamin:
Then *why* ruin him... risk someone dying?

Jack Benjamin:
To save myself! Don't you get it? I'm fighting for my right to exist!

Michelle Benjamin:
Whose life is more secure than yours? You're the prince!

Jack Benjamin:
And you're the princess - born first by four minutes; eldest by a hair. Are you really that innocent? That you haven't thought about it yourself? Or are you just too ashamed to admit you have?

Michelle Benjamin:
No one wants your crown.

Jack Benjamin:
Not yet; you can't produce an heir, so what? You could still take pride of place. I see the way you look at Shepherd; I see the way your father looks at him. All it takes is one wedding, and he can make of the pair of you king and queen... and me, suddenly the court jester? I will not sit by and be plowed into obscurity by someone else's ambition... not after all I sacrificed.
