:30:00
You're that smart?
:30:01
Let me put it this way: have you ever
heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates?
:30:05
- Yes.
- Morons.
:30:08
Really? In that case,
I challenge you to a battle of wits.
:30:13
For the princess?
:30:15
To the death?
:30:17
I accept!
:30:19
Good. Then pour the wine.
:30:37
Inhale this, but do not touch.
:30:41
I smell nothing.
:30:42
What you do not smell
is called iocane powder.
:30:45
It is odorless, tasteless,
dissolves instantly in liquid,
:30:48
and is among the more deadlier
poisons known to man.
:31:13
All right, where is the poison?
The battle of wits has begun.
:31:17
It ends when you decide
and we both drink,
:31:20
and find out who is right
and who is dead.
:31:24
But it's so simple.
All I have to do is divine
:31:26
from what I know of you.
Are you the sort of man
:31:29
who would put the poison
into his own goblet, or his enemy's?
:31:34
Now, a clever man would put the poison
into his own goblet,
:31:37
because he would know that only a great fool
would reach for what he was given.
:31:40
I'm not a great fool,
:31:41
so I can clearly not choose
the wine in front of you.
:31:44
But you must have known I was not a great fool.
You would have counted on it,
:31:48
so I can clearly not choose
the wine in front of me.
:31:51
- You've made your decision then?
- Not remotely.
:31:54
Because iocane comes from Australia,
as everyone knows.
:31:58
And Australia is entirely
peopled with criminals.
