King Mongkut I have never danced with a English woman before.
B Beebe
How was the King compared to the other Englishmen?
He was charming, very charming. I don't think I will ever forget, how he held held his hand out to me, like I was...
B Beebe
One of his 26 wives?
Anna Leonowens [A bit distraught]: Thank you Beebe, I never thought of it in that way.
Beebe [Knowingly]: Prehapes you should.
Son of teacher forgets that I am son of King.
Son of teacher couldn't care less.
Louis, remember what I told you.
I'm sorry Mother, but he started it.
In my country, man never tell a woman he is sorry. If you had father, you would know this.
You don't have a father, you have a map.
[Louis pushes the prince.]
Louis!
It is forbidden to touch royalty.
I didn't touch you — I shoved you. Why don't you get one of your servants to shove me back?
Moonshee, why does the king have so many wives?
Moonshee That is an excellent question — For your mother.
Lord Bradley, may I have a moment?
LB Lord Bradley
I'm afraid a moment is all we have.
LB Lady Bradley
We're leaving on the next boat, and so should you.
LB Lord Bradley
Your question?
Are the British behind these Burmese attacks?
K Mr. Kincaid
Stick to teaching, Ms. Leonowens. It's clear that you know nothing of pollitics.
I know that Burma would never make a move without Englands blessing.
LB Lord Bradley
Preciseley. But, if our economy was threatend, then it would be our duty to protect our intrests.
Our economy?! Our intrests?!
LB Lady Bradley
The ways of England are the ways of the world, my dear.
Yes, a world that I am ashamed to call my own!
LB Lord Bradley
You forget yourself madam. Now if you will excuse us.
[They turn to leave]
No, I will not. You toasted him! You praised him for his learnings! And all the while you were planning to take the throne from him!
LB Lord Bradley
Well, you should do well to remember your own self, next tine you are cheek to cheek with the king!
King Mongkut If Alak crosses the bridge, everything I love will die.
But they are only children!
King Mongkut Yes, and heirs to the royal throne.
King Mongkut We will blow up the bridge.
King Mongkut It will, if he is on it.
Your Majesty, promise me, promise me I will see you again!
King Mongkut [King turns and looks at Anna]
If your Bible is correct, then the world was created in seven days. Who is to say that four men can not stop an army?
[The King puts his hand on Anna's cheek, then walks away.]
Mother, look! The king is standing on the bridge.
And he is surronded by thousands of men!
King Mongkut [Coming back alive]: Why did you not take everyone to the monastary like I orderd!?
Becuase, your Majesty, I already lost one man to the jungle, I wasn't about to let it happen again.
(Gazing at the King on a balcony)
: What?
King Mongkut I wonder, if it would be proper, to have the honor to dance with school teacher.
I have danced with a king before.
King Mongkut As have I with a English woman.
King Mongkut [They start to dance, and he pulls her close]
I never thought, before this moment, Anna Leonowens, that a man could be satisfied with just one woman.
[He kisses her hand, and they dance closer.]
King Mongkut I have never danced with a English woman before.

King Mongkut Am wondering, giving circumstances, if it is proper for king to ask Anna to dance.
I have danced with a king before, Your Majesty.
King Mongkut And I with an English woman.
King Mongkut [They start to dance, and he pulls her close]
Until now, Madame Leonowens, I did not understand supposition, man can be satisfied with only one woman.
[He kisses her hand, and they dance closer.]
