Fflewddur You're making a horrendous mistake! I'm not a spy! I'm a bard! I sing! Uh, I entertain! Oh, careful sir, these are the hands of an artist!

2 quotes Fflewddur Fflewddur I'm Fflewddur Fflam! Minstrel of minstrels! Balladeer to the grandest courts in all the land! [harp string snaps] And I, uh, eh? Eh, well, have you forgotten? I have sung in some of the finest courts... [another string snaps] Well, I'm only waiting for an invitation! [another one snaps] Oh, shush. Why do you have to judge every word I say?
Scenes with Fflewddur
7 scenesI wasn't afraid!
Not afraid?! Why, we were running for our lives!
Well, I got us out of the castle, didn't I?
You?! I'd say it was the sword's magic.
But it takes a great warrior to handle a sword like this!
But still, it is a magic sword!
Humph! What does a girl know about swords anyway?!
Girl? Girl?! If it weren't for this, girl, you would still be in the Horned King's dungeon!
Fflewddur Here now, now. Princess Eilonwy, Taran–
Well at least I don't keep talking about it forever! Oh, you're so, so bored!
Fflewddur Princess Eilonwy!
How dare you take his side!
Fflewddur Well I really didn't mean to-to-to... interfere, heh, heh!
Silly girl! Even if she is a princess!
Fflewddur We are going to have to- to to... Oh, dear.
Fflewddur Help! Murder! Hurry!
Ha, ha! Gurgi's lucky day! [picks up Fflewddur's hat] Wow!
Fflewddur Yes! Keep it! It's a gift!
Fflewddur Take it! I'm sure you've murdered for less! Ugh!
Fflewddur So nice to meet you ladies. Uh, goodbye!
Wait! My, aren't you the handsome one!
Fflewddur Who? Who? M-m-m-m-m, me?!
Oh, honestly now! Don't you find me irresistible?
Fflewddur Yes. Quite so! [harp string snaps] Sush! Stop that!
I say, what funny little ducklings! Don't they know that the Black Cauldron is indestructible? Now listen carefully. The Black Cauldron can never be destroyed. Only its evil powers can be stopped.
Then there is a way. But how?
A living being must climb into it of his own free will.
Gurgi is bold and brave. He will climb into the evil cauldron.
However, the poor duckling will never climb out alive.
Fflewddur Now look here, madam! Don't forget we have an agreement!
Yes, you said we could have the Cauldron!
Orgoch
Of course we said you could have the Cauldron! It's not our fault you can't do anything with it!
Goodbye, goslings! And remember: we always keep our bargain!
Oh, Taran, I'm afraid it'll soon be over for us.
I hadn't planned it to end like this, Eilonwy.
Fflewddur Oh, I wish I'd stayed a toad.
Fflewddur Just what do you think you're up to, ladies?
Oh, we have business with your little hero.
"Hero?" Gurgi was the hero.
The only thing that mattered to you was the Cauldron, but now it's no use to you. So we'll just take it and be on our way.
Fflewddur Stay your hand, ladies. We never give anything away. We bargain; we trade. Remember?
Did these old ears hear the word "bargain"? Hmm?
Fflewddur Yes, madam, those old ears heard right.
Ohh! I adore forceful men.
Fflewddur Oh, pull yourself together, madam.
I'm not a warrior. I'm a pig-boy. What would I do with a sword?
But I would trade...
All Three Witches
Yes?
...the Cauldron for Gurgi.
Oh, dear!
It's not possible!
Fflewddur Just as I thought, ladies! You've got no real power! Admit it! Admit it!
[Insulted by Fflewddur's remarks, the witches circle around the Cauldron in a whirlwind of white light, leaving Gurgi's unconscious body behind.]
We have made a bargain! [laughing]
