:22:06
They have risked their lives for 15 years
for a cause not of their own.
:22:09
And now, on the day they are to be
liberated, you send them on a mission
:22:14
which is far more dangerous
than any other they have undertaken.
:22:17
You tell me, Bishop,
how do I go to my men and tell them
:22:20
that instead of freedom I offer death?
:22:23
If your men are truly the knights
of legend, perhaps some will survive.
:22:28
If it is God's will.
:22:30
Your men want to go home,
:22:32
and to get home they need to cross
the entire breadth of the Roman Empire.
:22:37
Deserters would be hunted down like dogs.
:22:42
Will you defy the Pope, Arthur?
:22:44
Rome? God himself?
:22:47
Everything I've done has been
for the Church and for Rome.
:22:49
Do not mistake a loyal soldier
for a fool, Germanius.
:22:52
Would you leave a defenseless
Roman boy, destined to lead our Church,
:22:56
at the hands of the Saxons?
:22:59
Fulfill this mission, and your men
will receive their discharge.
:23:05
Their papers will be waiting here
the moment they return.
:23:10
You have my word.
:23:13
You think very hard upon that vow, Bishop,
for I will hold you to it.
:23:19
Break it, and no Roman legion,
:23:24
papal army,
:23:27
nor God himself will protect you.
:23:31
That is my word.
:23:41
- (man) She gave me fleas.
- (man #2) You better hope they're fleas.
:23:49
Best of three.
:23:53
(baby mewling)
:23:55
Who wants another drink?
:23:57
- (Lancelot) Ahh.
- (sighs)
