Lords and ladies, His Royal Highness,
King Michael the Benevolent,
:28:14
protector of the realm.
:28:17
That scepter's made of wood.
:28:20
Yes, well, we dream on a budget here,
don't we?
:28:23
No, I mean, everyone thinks it's made
of gold, but it's just an old hunk of wood.
:28:28
The means to an end, Peter.
:28:31
What we've done is taken
an old hunk of wood
:28:34
and transformed it for all the world to see
into the most magnificent gold.
:28:40
- There you go.
- What's this?
:28:44
All great writers begin with a good
leather binding and a respectable title.
:28:50
Open it.
:28:55
"The Boy Castaways."
:28:57
"Being a record of the terrible adventures
of the brothers Davies,
:29:02
faithfully set forth by...
Peter Llewelyn Davies."
:29:06
Kipling would swallow his own ear
for a title like that.
:29:10
Stab him, George. You can do it.
:29:13
I still have no idea what to write.
:29:16
Write about anything.
Write about your family.
:29:19
- Write about the talking whale.
- What whale?
:29:21
The one that's trapped in your imagination
and desperate to get out. Come sit down.
:29:31
I have actually begun writing about the
adventures of the Davies brothers myself.
:29:35
- A play?
- A play indeed, yes.
:29:38
And I would be extremely honored
:29:41
if you would allow me the use of your name
for one of the characters.
:29:45
I don't know what to say.
:29:48
Say yes.
:29:52
Good man.
:29:53
Porthos! That's mine. Let go.
:29:55
I won't go to bed. I won't, I won't.
:29:58
You should have been in bed
half an hour ago, young man.
