Episode Quotes |
| |
Prince Edmund: Tell me, Brother Baldrick, exactly what did God do to the Sodomites?
Baldrick: I dunno, my Lord. But I can't imagine it was worse than what they used to do to each other.
| (Prince Edmund has just secured land for the crown)
Richard IV: My son!
Prince Edmund: Father!
Richard IV: (kneels down) Father.
Prince Edmund: (blessing him) My son.
| Edmund: Right! Now, let's get down to business, shall we?
Percy: Business, my Lord?
Edmund: Yes, Baldrick has been looking at some of the ways we can actually make a bit of money on this job.
Baldrick: Well, basically there appear to be four major profit areas: curses, pardons, relics, and selling the sexual favours of nuns.
Edmund: Selling the sexual favours of nuns?
Baldrick: Yeah.
Edmund:You mean some people actually pay for them?
Baldrick: Well, foreign businessmen, other nuns, you know.
