Let them come in.
:36:20
Speak, Phylon.
:36:22
Sir, I've come to ask your permission
to marry Ellas, daughter of Pentheus.

:36:26
Her father's granted his consent but, since my
father's away on family business in Thrace,

:36:31
I beg you to act in his stead.
:36:34
- When did you last hear from your father?
- Not since he left Sparta.

:36:38
He was supposed to return way before now.
:36:41
Have you any idea
what might have caused this delay?

:36:45
No, sir.
:36:47
Is there anything wrong?
:36:50
Agathon believes so.
:36:53
While I was being tortured by the Persians,
I saw your father in the enemy camp.

:36:58
- No. Not my father.
- He was there with ex-king Demaratus.

:37:02
- That's not possible.
- I'm not used to telling lies!

:37:07
- You may have been mistaken...
- I tell you, I spoke to him!

:37:11
He still bears the mark
of my whip on his face.

:37:21
Sir, I beg you by the immortal gods,
let me wipe out this disgrace.

:37:26
Put me in the first line of battle.
Let me die a Spartan!

:37:31
As a freeborn man, you are not
responsible for your father's actions.

:37:35
Yet I cannot ask my soldiers
to accept into their ranks

:37:39
a man whose father
is consorting with the enemy.

:37:42
- But, sir...
- That is my final word!

:37:46
You will surrender your war-cloak
to the officer on duty.

:37:58
You may go.
