from: "Mønti Pythøn ik den Hølie Gräilen"
OLD WOMAN: Well, how did you become king, then?
ARTHUR: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering
samite, held Excalibur aloft from the bosom of the waters to signify
that by Divine Providence... I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur... that
is why I am your King.
DENNIS: Look, strange women lying on their backs in ponds handing over
swords... that's no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive
power derives from a mandate from the masses not from some farcical
aquatic ceremony.
ARTHUR: Be quiet!
DENNIS: You can't expect to wield supreme power just because some
watery tart threw a sword at you.
ARTHUR: Shut up!
DENNIS: I mean, if I went around saying I was an Emporer because some
moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, people would put me away.
ARTHUR: (grabbing him by the collar) Shut up, will you. Shut up!
DENNIS: Ah! Now... we see the violence inherent in the system.
ARTHUR: Shut up!
DENNIS: (calling) Come and see the violence inherent in the system.
Help, help, I'm being repressed!
ARTHUR: Bloody peasant! (pushes DENNIS into the mud and prepares to
ride off)
DENNIS: Oooooh! Did you hear that! What a give-away...

(remember now???)
...keeds, "MP&THG" was my personal Rocky Horror... I've seen it waaay
too many times (and own the wide-screen director's cut on VHS and have
the screenplay in book format)
