:27:03
She goes
to the chair,
:27:05
removes her clothes
one by one,
:27:07
until she's standing naked
in full view of Gyges.
:27:11
And indeed, she was more lovely
than he could have imagined.
:27:15
But then,
the Queen looked up...
:27:19
and saw Gyges concealed
in the shadows.
:27:23
And although she said
nothing, she shuddered.
:27:31
And the next day,
:27:34
she sends for, for Gyges
and challenged him.
:27:37
- And hearing his story,
this is what she said.
- Off with his head !
:27:41
[ Laughing ]
:27:45
She said, "Either you
must submit to death...
:27:49
"for gazing on that
which you should not,
:27:51
"or else kill my husband
who has shamed me...
:27:56
and become King
in his place."
:28:01
So Gyges kills the King,
:28:03
marries the Queen and becomes ruler
of Lydia for 28 years.
:28:09
The end.
:28:14
Shall I spin
the bottle ?
:28:16
[ Madox ] So, Geoffrey,
let that be a lesson to you.
:28:19
- [ Katharine ] D'Agostino !
- D'Agostino !
:28:22
Are you asleep ?
:28:26
Yes.
:28:28
No. I'm dropping off.
