Intake Officer
[Edmund and a group of males are lining up to join the war.]
Are you sure you're 18?
Edmund Why? Do I look older?
Intake Officer
[Edmund gives his National Registration identity card to the intake officer. The intake officer takes it, opens it, and notices the name "Alberta Scrubb" in it.]
Alberta Scrubb?
Edmund That's a typographical error. It's supposed to be Albert A. Scrubb.
[Lucy walks in holding a wooden box full of groceries.]
Edmund. [Edmund turns to her] You're supposed to be helping me with the groceries.
Male
[The intake officer gives Edmund's National Registration identity card back to him. Edmund takes it.] [Ruffles Edmund's head]
Better luck next time, eh, squirt?
Edmund [Edmund and Lucy walk outside.]
Squirt? [Takes the box from Lucy] He barely had two years on me. I'm a king.
Edmund [Edmund and Lucy walk over to Lucy's bicycle.]
I've fought wars and– and I've lead armies.
[As Edmund places the box on the back of the bicycle, Lucy places her bag on the basket of the bicycle.]
Not in this world.
Edmund Yeah. Instead I'm stuck here, doing battle with Eustace Clarence Scrubb. If anyone so deserved a name.
Edmund [As Edmund straps the box to the back of the bicycle, Lucy notices a young officer and a young woman chatting. The woman tucks her hair behind her ear, leading Lucy to do the same.] [Notices Lucy tucking her hair behind her ear]
What are you doing?
Nothing. Come on then.
[As Edmund and Lucy walk away, Edmund glances at the officer and the woman.]
[Eustace is writing in his diary.]
Dear diary, it is now day 253 since my wretched cousins Edmund and Lucy invaded our house. Not sure how much longer I can cope living with them, having to share my things. If only one could treat relatives like one treats insects, all my problems would be solved. I could simply put them in a jar or pin them to my wall.
I'm home! Hello?
[Hearing Lucy's voice, Eustace puts his diary in his sock, grabs sweets, and puts them in a bag.]
Note to self, investigate legal ramifications of impaling relatives.
[Harold in sitting on an armchair reading a newspaper when Lucy walks through the living room and passes by him on her way to the kitchen.]
Hello, Uncle Harold. I tried to find some carrots, but all they had were turnips again. [Puts the box on the table] Shall I start making soup? [Takes her coat off] Aunt Alberta's on her way home.
[Edmund sticks his tongue out at Harold.] [Standing on the stairs]
Father. [Edmund turns to him] Edmund's making faces at you. [Spits a spitball into Edmund's neck]
Edmund [Angrily runs up the stairs]
Why, you little–
Father, he's gonna hit me! [Cowers on the stairs]
[Edmund gets ready to attack Eustace, when Lucy calls out to him.]
Edmund, look! [Holds a letter up] It's from Susan.
Susan
[Susan is writing in a letter.]
I do wish you were here with us. It's been such an adventure, but nothing like our times in Narnia. America is very exciting... except we never see Father. He works so very hard. I was invited–
[Edmund and Lucy in sitting on a bed in a room reading the letter.]
"–to the British Consul's tea party this week by a naval officer–"
Susan
–who happens to be very handsome.
"I think he fancies me." Hmm. "It seems the Germans have made the crossing difficult right now." Times are hard. "Mother hopes you both won't mind another few months in Cambridge."
[As Lucy reads the letter, Edmund gets up and goes over to a painting of a ship on an ocean on the wall. He stares at it.]
Another few months?
Edmund [Takes the letter from Lucy]
You're lucky, at least you've got your own room. I'm stuck with mullet mouth.
Edmund Yeah, they're the eldest and we're the youngest. We don't matter as much.
[As Edmund lies on the bed reading the letter, Lucy stares at her reflection in the mirror.] [Tucks her hair behind her ear]
Do you think I look anything like Susan?
Edmund [Puts the letter down and gets up]
Lucy, have you seen this ship before? [Goes over to the painting]
Yes. It's very Narnian-looking, isn't it? [Goes over to the painting]
Edmund Yeah. Well, just another reminder that we're here and not there.
[While Edmund and Lucy stare at the painting, Eustace walks into the room.]
There once were two orphans who wasted their time believing in Narnian nursery rhymes.
Edmund [Starts to march towards Eustace]
Please let me hit him!
Edmund Don't you ever knock?
It's my house. I'll do as I please. You're just guests.
[While Edmund and Lucy turn back to the painting, Eustace walks over to the bed and sits down.]
What's so fascinating about that picture anyway? It's hideous.
Edmund You won't see it from the other side of the door.
Edmund, it looks like the water's actually moving.
What rubbish! See? That's what happens when you read all those fanciful novels and fairy tales of yours.
Edmund There once was a boy called Eustace who read books full of facts that were useless. [Lucy smiles]
People who read fairy tales are always the sort who become a hideous burden to people like me– [Edmund turns to him] –who read books with real information.
Edmund "Hideous burden"? [Eustace gets up] I haven't seen you lift a finger since we've been here.
Edmund [As Lucy continues staring at the painting, Eustace tries to run out of the room, but Edmund slams the door.]
I have a mind to tell your father it was you who stole Aunt Alberta's sweets.
Liar!
Edmund Oh, really?
[While Edmund and Eustace are arguing, Lucy notices seawater starting to pour into the room and the ship starting to sail towards her.]
Edmund, the painting.
Edmund I found them under your bed, and you know what? I licked every one of them.
Ugh! I'm infected with you!
[The wind blows the seawater at Edmund, Lucy, and Eustace.] [Notices the seawater pouring into the room and the ship saling towards him, Edmund, and Lucy]
What's going on here?
Edmund Lucy, do you think–?
It's some kind of trick! Stop it or I'll tell mother! [Goes over to the door] Mother! Mother! I'll just smash the rotten thing! [Runs over to the painting and tears it off the wall]
[As Edmund and Lucy try to stop Eustace from tearing the painting off the wall, the seawater starts splashing the three of them.]
Pug
[Edmund, Lucy, Caspian, and the Dawn Treader crew are battling the slave traders when they hear Eustace screaming. They turn to see Pug holding a knife to Eustace's throat.]
Unless you want to hear this one squeal like a girl again, I'd say you should drop your weapons.
Pug
Now!
Pug
[Edmund, Lucy, Caspian, and the Dawn Treader crew drop their swords.]
Put it down.
Edmund [Glaring at his cousin]
Eustace.
Pug
Put them in irons.
[As a slave trader puts hand cuffs on Caspian's arms, Pug grabs Eustace by his ear.] [As a slave trader puts hand cuffs on her arms]
Get your hands off me!
Pug
[Gestures to Lucy and Eustace]
Let's take these two to market. [Gestures to Edmund and Caspian] Send those two to the dungeons.
[While being restrained by two slave traders]
Listen to me, you insolent fool! I am your king!
Edmund [Gets slapped by a slave trader]
You're gonna pay for that!
Gumpas
[Approaches Edmund, Lucy, Eustace, Caspian, and the Dawn Treader crew]
Actually– someone else is going to pay– for all of you.
[Some of the slave traders start dragging Lucy and Eustace away, as Edmund and Caspian look on.]
No! Edmund!
Edmund Lucy!
Edmund! No! Edmund!
