:49:05
Thank you, Sir.
:49:07
Your Majesty,
here's the proposition.

:49:09
You're on television, seated
in a beautiful baronial hall.

:49:12
A butler pours you a glass
of Royal Crown Whiskey,

:49:15
and with your natural majestic charm
you say a few words and drink.

:49:18
I'm to advertise whiskey?
:49:20
I know it's beneath your dignity,
but there's $50,000 in there.

:49:23
If you don't want the money
you can give it to charity.

:49:25
That's a peach of an idea,
that charity angle!

:49:28
We'll advertise it in all the papers.
:49:30
I don't think it becomes His Majesty
to advertise his charitable donations.

:49:34
Personally
I think it's most distasteful.

:49:36
OK King, you're the doctor!
:49:38
About the payment, when do we...
:49:40
On signing the contract.
:49:43
Jaume, attend to that matter at once.
:49:45
Then it's a deal? Great!
:49:47
Take him to the studios,
get him mugged.

:49:49
We want pictures. Lots of dignity.
:49:51
Say, you haven't got
your crown with you?

:49:53
Under no circumstances
will I wear my crown.

:49:56
OK King, you're the doctor!
:50:04
Herbert, a little to the right.
:50:08
May I suggest holding your glass
to one side? It's hiding your face.

:50:13
There's a shadow.
:50:18
Now one without the glass.
:50:21
Herbert, bring up
a dozen colored plates.

:50:40
You're really photogenic.
:50:42
You still want to beguile me?
:50:44
But I mean it.
:50:46
You fooled me once.
:50:47
And you've never forgiven me?
:50:50
You're nothing but a delusion
and a snare.

:50:54
I'm not really.
:50:58
This is my revenge!
