Prince Charming: How did you know I was going--
Princess Abigail: Because I have ears in the 's court. And despite everyone's best efforts to shield me from it, I know the truth. You love ... and you have no intention of marrying me.
Prince Charming: I won't marry someone I don't love... or give that despot the satisfaction that I helped him. If that means suffering the consequences, so be it.
Princess Abigail: You're prepared to lay down your life. How charming. But I didn't come here to see you die. I came here to help you escape.

Mary Margaret: We're not being honest. I know it's hard, but—we have to tell her the truth! About everything: about us... (David has stopped walking; Mary Margaret turns around to look at him)
David: I don't know if I can.
Mary Margaret: (Pause.) You have to. If we can't be honest with other people, how can we be honest with each other?
David: Is it really the best plan?
Mary Margaret: What's your plan? (David shrugs. They continue walking) Moving to Boston? The only way no one gets hurt here if we don't want to be together. Is that what you want?
David: No.
Mary Margaret: Then we have to stop hiding and do something. It's better she hears it from you than from someone else. (David nods.) You have to make a choice.
David: (Sighs) I choose.. you.
Mary Margaret: (Nods) Then it's time to tell Kathryn. (exit Mary Margaret.)
