BORS: What about you, Lancelot? What are you plans for home?
LANCELOT: Well if this woman of Gawain’s is as beautiful as he claims, I expect to be spending a lot of time at Gawain’s house. His wife will welcome the company.
GAWAIN: I see. Then what will I be doing?
LANCELOT: Wondering at your good fortune that all your children look like me.
GAWAIN: Is that before or after I hit you with my axe?
PROBLEM.ZIP [0:15, 349KB, MP3]
BORS: ARTORIUS! Do we have a problem?
ARTHUR: You have a choice. You help, or you die.

GAWAIN: Save your prayers, boy. Your God doesn’t live here.
HOW.ZIP [0:19, 392KB, MP3]
BORS: You look nothing like him. You’re all Bors.
[sound of knife throwing]
GALAHAD: Tristan.
GAWAIN: How do you do that?
TRISTAN: I aim for the middle.
VANORA: Ugh, they want more.
DON'T WORRY.ZIP [0:18, 413KB, MP3]
ARTHUR: Hold until I give the command.
LANCELOT: You look frightened. That’s a large number of lonely men out there.
GUINEVERE: Don’t worry, I won’t let them rape you.
ON THE ICE.ZIP [1:49, 1172KB, MP3]
ARTHUR: Knights.
BORS: Well I’m tired of running. And these Saxons are so close behind, my ass is hurting.
TRISTAN: Never liked looking over my shoulder anyway.
GAWAIN: It’ll be a pleasure to put an end to this racket.
GALAHAD: We’ll finally get a look at the bastards.
DAGONET: Here. Now.
ARTHUR: Jols.
JOLS: You two, take the horses.
ARTHUR: Ganis, I need you to lead the people. The main Saxon army is inland so if you track the coastline until you’re well south of the wall, you’ll be safe.
GANIS: You’re seven against two hundred!
GUINEVERE: Eight. You could use another bow.
GANIS: I’d rather stay and fight.
ARTHUR: You’ll get your chance soon enough. This man is now your captain. You do as he says, am I understood?
MERCENARY: Yes, sir.
ARTHUR: Go. Go.
GANIS: Right. Come on, then! Move on!
ALECTO: I am able. I can fight.
ARTHUR: No. You must bear witness to what you have seen. There’s one thing you must do, and that’s get back to Rome.
ISLAND.ZIP [1:30, 974KB, MP3]
GAWAIN: Ugh, I can’t wait to leave this island. If it’s not raining, it’s snowing. If it’s not snowing, it’s foggy.
LANCELOT: And that’s the summer.
BORS: The rain is good. Washes all the blood away.
DAGONET: Doesn’t help the smell.
LANCELOT: Hey Bors. You intend on taking Vanora and all your little bastards back home?
BORS: Oh, I’m trying to avoid that decision. By getting killed.
BORS: Dagonet. She wants to get married, give the children names.
TRISTAN: Women. The children already have names, don’t they?
BORS: Just Gilly. It was too much trouble, so we gave the rest of them numbers.
LANCELOT: That’s interesting. I thought you couldn’t count.
BORS: You know, I never thought I’d get back home alive. Now that I’ve got the chance, I don’t think I’d leave my children.
DAGONET: You’d miss them too much.
BORS: I’ll take them with me. I like the little bastards. They mean something to me, especially number 3. He’s a good fighter.
LANCELOT: That’s because he’s mine.
BORS: I’m going for a piss.
[laughter]
I BEG YOU.ZIP [1:00, 583KB, MP3]
LANCELOT: This is not Rome's fight. It is not your fight. All these long years we've been together, the trials we've faced, the blood we've shed. What was it all for, if not for the reward of freedom? And now when we are so close, when it is finally within our grasp - look at me! Does it all count for nothing?
ARTHUR: You ask me that. You who know me best of all.
LANCELOT: Then do not do this! Only certain death awaits you here. Arthur! I beg you. For our friendship's sake, I beg you -
ARTHUR: You be my friend now and do not dissuade me. Seize the freedom you have earned and live it for the both of us. I cannot follow you, Lancelot. I know now that all the blood I have shed, all the lives I have taken have led me to this moment.
MERCIFUL GOD [2:42, 2427KB, WMA]
ARTHUR: O merciful God, I have such need of Your mercy now. Not for myself, but for my knights, for this is truly their hour of need. Deliver them from their trials ahead and I will repay You a thousand fold with any sacrifice You ask of me. And if in Your wisdom, You should determine that sacrifice must be my life for theirs; so that they may once again taste the freedom that is so long been denied to them, I will gladly make that covenant. My death will have a purpose.
I ask no more than that.
LANCELOT: Why do you always talk to God and not to me? Pray.
To whomever you pray that we don't cross the Saxons.
ARTHUR: My faith is what protects me, Lancelot. Why do you challenge this?
LANCELOT: I don't like anything that puts a man on his knees.
ARTHUR: No man fears to kneel before the God he trusts. Without faith, without belief in something, what are we?
LANCELOT: To try and get past the Woads in the north is insanity!
ARTHUR: Them, we've fought before.
LANCELOT: But not north of the Wall! How many Saxons? Hmm? How many!? Tell me. Do you believe in this mission?
ARTHUR: These people need our help. It is our duty to bring-
LANCELOT: I don't care about your charge. And I don't give a damn about Romans, Britain, or this island. If you desire to spend eternity in this place, Arthur, so be it. But suicide cannot be chosen for another-!
ARTHUR: And yet you choose death for this family!
LANCELOT: No, I choose life! And freedom! For myself and the men!
ARTHUR: How many times in battle have we snatched victory from the jaws of defeat? Outnumbered, outflanked, yet still we triumphed? With you at my side, we can do so again. Lancelot, we are knights. What other purpose do we serve if not for such a cause?
LANCELOT: Arthur, you fight for a world that will never exist.
Never. There will always be a battlefield. I will die in battle. Of that I'm certain. Now hopefully, a battle of my choosing.
But, if it be this one, grant me a favor: don't bury me in our sad little cemetery.
Burn me.
Burn me, and cast my ashes to a strong east wind.
BROTHERS IN ARMS [2:19, 2101KB, WMA]
ARTHUR: Knights. Brothers in arms. Your courage has been tested beyond all limits, but I must ask you now for one further trial.
BORS: Drink.
ARTHUR: We must leave on a final mission for Rome before our freedom can be granted.
ARTHUR: Above the wall, there lies a Roman family in need of rescue. They are trapped by Saxons.
Our orders are to secure their safety.
BORS: Let the Romans take care of their own.
GAWAIN: Above the wall is Woad territory.
GALAHAD: Our duty to Rome, if it was ever a duty, is done. Our pact with Rome is done.
BORS: Every knight here has laid his life on the line for you. For you.
And instead of freedom, you want more blood? Our blood!?
You think more of Roman blood than you do ours?!
ARTHUR: Bors, these are our orders. We leave at first light and when we return, your freedom will be waiting for you. A freedom we can embrace with-
BORS: I’m a free man! I will choose my own fate!
TRISTAN: Yeah yeah, we’re all going to die someday. If it’s death by a Saxon hand that frightens you – stay home.
GALAHAD: Well if you’re so eager to die, you can die right here!
LANCELOT: Enough, enough-
GALAHAD: I’ve got something to live for!
DAGONET: The Romans have broken their word.
We have the word of Arthur. That is good enough. I’ll prepare. Bors, you coming?
BORS: Of course I’m coming! Can’t let you go on your own; you’ll all get killed! I’m just saying what you’re all thinking! Vanora'll kill me.
ARTHUR: And you, Gawain?
GAWAIN: I’m with you. Galahad as well.
GIFT OF FREEDOM [1:00, 583KB, MP3]
ARTHUR: Knights! The gift of freedom is yours by right.
SAXONS: SAXON - SAXON - SAXON!
ARTHUR: But the home we seek resides not in some distant land. It's in us! And in our actions on this day!
SAXONS: [war cries]
ARTHUR: If this be our destiny, then so be it. But let history remember that as free men, we chose to make it so.
KNIGHTS: RUUUUUUUUUUS!

BELIEVE.ZIP [1:00, 579KB, MP3]
GUINEVERE: The right to choose our own destiny. So you see, Lancelot, we are much alike, you and I. And when you return home, will you...take a wife? Have sons?
LANCELOT: I've killed too many sons. What right to have to my own?
GUINEVERE: No family, no religion. Do you believe in anything at all?
LANCELOT: [heavy sigh] I would have left you and the boy there to die.
