:28:04
Too bad. You'd've made
a wonderful girl.

:28:10
No! We daren't think of
ourselves until our fight is won.

:28:14
Yes, but that could take
twenty years or more.

:28:16
Or twenty hours. If only we could
put our plan into operation.

:28:21
Plan? Do we
have a p-plan?

:28:23
A handful of men could overthrow
the castle in a matter of hours.

:28:27
Yes.
:28:28
You see, there's a secret
passage that starts in the forest,

:28:32
and tunnels underneath
the walls of the castle.

:28:35
Secret passage.
:28:36
But it's locked at both ends and
the key is in the king's possession.

:28:40
The king's possession, yeah.
:28:42
If only we could have
someone inside the castle;

:28:46
an intimate of the king,
with access to his chambers.

:28:50
Mm-hmm, with access to his
chambers. But, but that's impossible.

:29:01
Ah, good evening! A thousand
apologies for this uh intrusion,

:29:07
but may I beg shelter and warmth
from this miserable storm?

:29:11
Who are you?
:29:13
A stranger in this land,
young woman, but not for long.

:29:17
I'm Giacomo of the continent,
the king's new jester.

:29:22
The court jester.
:29:24
Giacomo?
:29:25
Giacomo the incomparable!
King of jesters, and jester of kings.

:29:31
Well where are you from?
:29:33
Most recently the Italian court.
:29:36
But I have entertained in
all the courts of Europe,

:29:38
and speak a ready wit
in their every tongue.

:29:42
Hawkins, we are indeed honored
that our humble hut will shelter one,

:29:48
will tomorrow be an
intimate of the king.

:29:50
With access to his chambers.
:29:53
But how will they know you?
:29:55
Are you sure that no one in the
castle has ever seen your face?
