Simon Pegg: The Chamberlain

Quotes 

• The Chamberlain : Is good thing we are not all so weak as to be scared of single Gelfling, yes?

  The General : [engraged]  You question my bravery?

  The Chamberlain : Keep your robes on, spithead!

  [All the Skeksis except skekZok and skekSo erupt into raucous laughter. skekSil and skekVar get up and face each other] 

  The General : Incompetent smipp!

  The Ornamentalist : How exciting!

  [skekLach laughs] 

  The General : You only dare flap your beak because you sit at the Emperor's side! Let us see if your talons are half as fearsome as your tongue!

  The Chamberlain : I bring order! Peace!

  The Ornamentalist : [gleefully]  There's going to be a fight!

  The Gourmand : [chortling]  A meal and a show!

  [skekOk exclaims with delight and pounds on the table with immersive mirth. skekSo is too busy inspecting the pus oozing out of his finger] 

  The Chamberlain : You! You are reckless, lead us into war!

  The General : I welcome war!

  [skekSo breaks off his fingertip. Purple smoke wafts from it] 

  The Chamberlain : Because you are too thick-headed to use brain!

• The Emperor : The General is right. I need results, not talk!

  The Chamberlain : But, Emperor, my sire...

  The Emperor : Be silent, or I will silence you.

  The Chamberlain : But- but why? I did not start fight.

  [skekLach laughs] 

  The Emperor : You talk too much. Talk, talk, talk! We rot while you chatter.

  The Chamberlain : Sire, my plan is working. I just need more time.

  The Emperor : More time, more words, more nothing!

• The Chamberlain : Look what General has done to my hand!

  [He presents his hand, which is wrapped in bandages and barely crippled] 

  The Hunter : [sarcastically]  Poor skekSil. Still consumed by petty squabbles.
