:30:00
Not yet! But I assure you,
:30:02
ere another sun has set,
:30:04
the entire court of England
will succumb to the charm,

:30:08
wit, and song of the incomparable
Giacomo, king of jesters..

:30:16
...And jester to the king!
:30:20
I'll take the child
to the abbey.

:30:21
You must go to the castle at once.
Quickly, into his clothes!

:30:26
W-what are we going
to do about him?

:30:28
I'll notify the fox,
he'll be taken care of.

:30:31
Now listen, listen carefully.
Once inside the castle,

:30:36
you must get to the king's chamber,
and find the key to the secret passage.

:30:40
Key to the passage. Right.
:30:41
Then you must give it to the one man
inside the castle who's our confederate.

:30:45
- Confederate.
:30:46
You mean we already have somebody
inside the castle? One of our own people?

:30:50
You will contact him by
whistling our secret call.

:30:55
Whistle it, hum it, sing it.
:30:58
But I don't understand,
:30:59
if we already have somebody inside
the castle, why doesn't he get the key?

:31:03
You'll understand when you see him.
Now, he'll hear that and identify himself.

:31:08
Why can't you just
tell me his name?

:31:10
Should they discover you, they
might force you to reveal his identity.

:31:13
Okay, I'd like to ask
you one question.

:31:16
After months of pleading
for just this kind of action,

:31:18
what makes you think that anybody ..anybody
could force me reveal the identity of my confederate?

:31:23
Because they'd put you on the rack,
crack your every bone, scald you with hot oil,

:31:27
and remove the nails off your
fingers with flaming hot pincers.

:31:32
I'd... Like to withdraw the question.
:31:34
Hawkins, the future of England
depends on this; you cannot fail.

:31:40
I will not.
:31:41
Oh heaven help you.
:31:46
Now remember from this moment on,
:31:49
you're no longer Hubert
Hawkins the carnival entertainer;

:31:53
You're the incomparable Giacomo,
king of jesters and jester to the king.

:31:59
Jester to the king.
Jester to the king.
