I'll make it easy for him to find me. I'll walk right up to him and tell him you're mine.

8 scenes
Prince? What prince? What son of a king would accept a man's hospitality, eat his food, drink his wine, embrace him in friendship, then steal his wife in the middle of the night?!
Paris The sun was shining when your wife left you.
She's up there watching, isn't she? Good. I want her to watch you die.
Not yet, brother. Look around you, Hector. I brought all the warriors of Greece to your shores.
You can still save Troy, young prince.
I have two wishes. If you grant them, no more of your people need die. First, you must give Helen back to my brother. Second, Troy must submit to my command, to fight for me whenever I call.
You want me to look upon your army and tremble? Well I see them. I see 50,000 men brought here to fight for one man's greed.
Careful boy, my mercy has limits.
And I've seen the limits of your mercy, and I tell you now: no son of Troy will ever submit to a foreign ruler.
Then every son of Troy... shall die!
Paris Father, this is Helen.
Helen? Helen of Sparta?
Paris Helen of Troy.
I'd heard rumours of your beaty, and for once, the gossips were right.
Do you know what you've done? Do you know how many years our father worked for peace?
Paris I love her.
Oh, it's all a game to you, isn't it? You roam from town to town, bedding merchants' wives and temple maids and you think you know something about love? What about your father's love? You spat on him when you brought her onboard this ship! What about the love for your country? You'd let Troy burn for this woman?! I will NOT let you start a war for her!
Paris What you say is true, I've wronged you. I've wronged our father. If you want to take Helen back to Sparta, so be it... but I go with her.
To Sparta, they'll kill you!
Paris Then I'll die fighting.
Oh, and that's sounds heroic to you, to die fighting? Have you ever killed a man?
Paris No.
Ever seen a man die in combat?
Paris No.
I've killed men. I've heard them dying, I've watched them dying and there's nothing glorious about it! Nothing poetic! You say you're willing to die for love, but you know nothing about dying and you know nothing about love!
Paris All the same, I go with her. I won't ask you to fight my war.
You already have.
Paris, do you love her?
Paris Father, you are a great king because you love your country so much. Every blade of grass, every grain of sand, every rock in the river. You love all of Troy. That is the way I love Helen.
Paris Pearls from the sea of Propontus.
They're beautiful, but I can't wear them. Menelaus would kill us both.
Paris Don't be afraid of him.
I'm not afraid of dying, I'm afraid of tomorrow. I'm afraid of watching you sail away and knowing you'll never come back. Before you came to Sparta, I was a ghost. I walked and I ate and I swam in the sea... I was just a ghost.
Paris You don't have to fear tomorrow. Come with me.
Don't play with me, don't play.
Paris If you come we'll never be safe. Men will hunt us, the gods will curse us, but I'll love you. Until the day they burn my body, I'll love you.
[Paris enters Helen's room while the rest are partying outside]
You should not have come here tonight.
Paris That's what you said last night?
Last night was a mistake.
Paris And the night before?
I have made many mistakes this week.
Paris Tis a beautiful morning. Poseidon has blessed our voyage.
Sometimes the gods bless you in the morning and curse you in the afternoon.
Paris Do you love me brother? Would you protect me against any enemy?
[intrigued]
The last time you spoke to me like this, you were ten years old, and had just stolen father's horse... what have you done now?
Paris I must show you something.
[Paris leads Hector into the bottom deck of the ship to reveal Helen, who he brought from Sparta]
Paris [As the other Trojans celebrate around the Greeks' wooden horse]
Look at them. You'd think their prince had never died.
You are their prince now. Make your brother proud.
