wouldn't be sufficiently intriguing.

Now these quests usually

end in success, right, I mean,

you know, knights and pages

don't usually get killed?

No no. Might lose

the odd limb or two, but...

Ah, there's an inn, they

should be able to direct us.

Landlord!

- No!

Can you tell us the whereabouts

of castle Grede?

- Never heard of it.

- No. No.

There ain't no castle

of that name 'round here.

You take my advice,

you steer well clear of it.

Even if there was.

This non-existent castle,

would it be about a mile away?

No!

That's where it would be,

if it were there.

If this castle was there,

it wouldn't be dangerous, would it?

Well, some people do say as scores

of princes have been up there,

suitors to princess Yeugh,

and none of them has never come back.

They was eaten by the metaphor.

Excuse me, may we be of some help?

Lobsters?

Don't be so prejudiced.

We're only touring ourselves,

but we do have a map.

It's very detailed you know.

Well, it needs to be, for cycling.

Excuse me I hope you

don't mind me asking,

but are either of

you two princes?

- No.

- No? Pity. They won't let you in then.

Wait, we have to see

the princess Yeugh.

I mean now will they know

we're not princes?

Torture.

Though why anyone would want to

see her I'm afraid I just don't know.

I'm told facially, she has got about as

much going for her as the average prawn.

I thought you said she was great looking.

Chivalry.

Thank you.

Right, now for this castle.

There it is.

Perhaps now you'll trust lobsters.

Lovely hat, only one orner.

No thanks, I'm quite fond of

the one I have, thank you.

Grab jewels, special offer!

Play a song for the princess, sir!

Best flowers, duckie?

Not just now, but they are very nice.

Last will and testament.

Last will and testament.

Ah, it's clearly one of

your fearsome metaphors.

We'd like to see the princess Yeugh.

Are you princes?

- No, but eh...

- Then push off!

You know, that coat

looks fantastic on you.

And so it does.

I've been thinking.

You've been a very good page.

I ought to reward you.

I've decided to allow you

to complete this quest.

Why me, is it dangerous?

Of course it's

dangerous, it's a quest.

Can't become a knight until

you've completed a quest or two.

- That was very good.

- I am a knight.

Right. Climb this, find the princess,

and read this to her. Good luck.

No, you don't understand,

I failed P.E. I cannot do that.

You could with encouragement.

What, wait a second, what are

you doing, I can't do this.

- You see, it's not so hard.

- Then you do it.

This never would have happened

if I would have stayed in America.

I've got five of his shirts in soak,
