Baron Vladimir Harkonnen: This morning, you were a playboy, feared and envied. But tonight, you're a hero! My gift to you.
Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen: [seething] I ought to drown you in that tub!
Baron Vladimir Harkonnen: [chuckles] Don't be hasty. I have another gift for you, a bigger one. Arrakis.
Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen: [confused] What about Rabban?
Baron Vladimir Harkonnen: He has failed to protect spice production. Rabban will be reassigned. Tame Arrakis, Feyd. Free the spice, I'll make you Emperor.
Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen: Emperor? How?
Baron Vladimir Harkonnen: The Emperor helped me destroy the Atreides, and lent his own army to the cause. A serious crime. If it came to light, the Great Houses would rise against him. Then, who will sit on the throne? Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen!
