Page 7 of 8For the last time, surrender!
Death first!!
Prince Humperdinck and Westley
What was that?
Where am I?
Albino [whispering harshly]
THE PIT OF DESPAIR! DON'T EVEN THINK— [clears his throat and proceeds in a normal voice.] Don't even think about trying to escape.
Are you coming down into the Pit? Westley's got his strength back. I am starting him on The Machine tonight.
Tyrone, you know how much I love watching you work. But, I've got my country's five hundredth anniversary to plan, my wedding to arrange, my wife to murder, and Guilder to frame for it. I'm swamped.
Get some rest. If you haven't got your health, you haven't got anything.
Yellin [Humperdinck orders Yellin to form a brute squad and clear out the Thieves' Den.]
It won't be easy.
Try ruling the world some time.
Are you the Miracle Max who worked for the King all those years?
The King's stinking son fired me. And thank you so much for bringing up such a painful subject. While you're at it, why don't you give me a nice paper cut and pour lemon juice on it? We're closed! [slams the window closed]
I'm on the Brute Squad.
We need a miracle. It's very important.
Look, I'm retired. And besides, why would you want someone the King's stinking son fired? I might kill whoever you wanted me to miracle.
He's already dead.
See, there's a big difference between mostly dead, and all dead. Now, mostly dead: he's slightly alive. All dead, well, with all dead, there's usually only one thing that you can do.
What's that?
Go through his clothes and look for loose change.
You got any money?
Sixty-five.
Seesh. I never worked for so little. Except once, and that was a very noble cause.
This is noble, sir. His wife is... crippled. His children are on the brink of starvation.
I need him to help avenge my father. Murdered these 20 years.
Your first story was better.
It would take a miracle. [calling out] Bye bye!
King [Buttercup kisses the old, senile king on the cheek]
What was that for?
Because you've always been so kind to me. And I won't be seeing you again, since I'm killing myself once we reach the Honeymoon Suite.
King [smiling]
Won't that be nice? [calling out to the Queen] She kissed me!
[Inigo, having just been critically injured, gets up and starts advancing on Rugen.]
Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
[The two fight for a moment, then pause]
Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
Stop saying that!
[More fighting ensues. Inigo gains the upper hand.] [yelling]
Hello! My name is Inigo Montoya! You killed my father! Prepare to die!
No!
Yes!
All that I have and more. Please...
Anything you want!
[Rugen takes another lunge at Inigo. Inigo parries and stabs Rugen through the stomach.]
I want my father back, you son of a bitch. [thrusts his sword into Rugen, then pulls it back out, leaving him to die.]
Oh, Westley, will you ever forgive me?
What hideous sin have you committed lately?
I got married. I didn't want to. It all happened so fast.
It never happened.
What?
It never happened.
But it did. I was there. This old man said, "Man and wife."
Did you say, "I do"?
Then you're not married. If you didn't say it, you didn't do it.
You know, it's very strange. I have been in the revenge business so long. Now that it's over, I don't know what to do with the rest of my life.
Have you ever considered piracy? You'd make a wonderful Dread Pirate Roberts.
They rode to freedom. And as dawn arose, Westley and Buttercup knew they were safe. A wave of love swept over them. And as they reached for each other... [closes the book]
What? What?
Nah, it's kissing again. You don't want to hear it.
Granson
I don't mind so much.
Okay. [opens the book again] Since the invention of the kiss, there have been five kisses that were rated the most passionate, the most pure. This one left them all behind. [closes the book] The End.
Grandpa... maybe you could come back and read it to me again tomorrow?
As you wish.
