1:11:04
Stop looking at me like that!
Do as l tell you!
1:11:07
- But when, Your Majesty?
- Now. Today. This minute.
1:11:11
Your Majesty will pardon me
if l seem shocked...
1:11:14
Do l have to consult you first
concerning everything l wish to do?
1:11:19
Your Majesty would go without
accomplishing her purpose?
1:11:23
Permit me to decide the question
of my comings and goings.
1:11:28
Your Majesty will forgive me if l venture
to touch upon her personal, private affairs.
1:11:34
Get to the point, Baltor.
1:11:36
l have sensed a change
in Your Majesty. A softening.
1:11:40
A desire to evade reality.
1:11:42
You are accusing me
of being in love with him? ls that it?
1:11:47
l hope for Your Majesty"s own sake
that such is not the case.
1:11:53
And if such is the case,
1:11:57
do you deny me the right
for the first time in my life to be human?
1:12:02
May l remind Your Majesty that
you cannot put your personal feelings
1:12:07
above the Pharaoh
and the good of your country?
1:12:10
Don"t lecture me, Baltor.
1:12:11
Your Majesty once told me that you could
not afford the luxury of being a woman,
1:12:16
that always you were forced
to remember that you are a queen,
1:12:20
and that your only love,
your only thought, must be your duty.
1:12:24
Your Majesty came to Jerusalem
1:12:26
in search of a means to destroy
an enemy whom you once hated!
1:12:32
Yes, Baltor.
1:12:35
l have been trying to evade reality.
1:12:38
l have found myself trying to forget
the purpose for which l came,
1:12:43
as one would try to forget an evil dream.
1:12:48
l have been reluctant
to make an end of him.
1:12:53
The most merciful way to kill is to thrust
quickly and strongly with a knife.
1:12:57
lt seems to me that we are no nearer a kill
than we were before we came.
