Blackadder II – Money
Points of View
Lord Edmund Blackadder:
Go on, Percy, get on with it –
Either you go through your motions or I die.
Which would you prefer?
I thought so.
That's right, smile for the geen-yus –
Are you getting this, Leonardo Acropolis?
You'd better be, because if I die …
Anyhow, what was I saying?
Oh yes. How much could I likely swindle
That mindless twit Pants for when
Inevitably I buy my house back,
Ride off into the sunset and
Marry the Queen?
Long live Lord Blackadder!
