ZEETHA: hmf. She sounds like an idiot.
GIL: Well, yes. But she was never a malicious one.
ZEETHA: Is that important?
GIL: Heavens, yes! If I let everyone I thought was an idiot die---there wouldn't be many people left.

TARVEK: (to clank:) Stop! I am prince Tarvek of the House of Sturmvoraus. I am the direct descendant of Andronicus Avlois and heir to the Lightning Throne. I am the Storm King---and you were created to serve me!
(Clank throws Tarvek backwards; sound effect: "POW!")
MOLOCH: Um---that never works, you know.
