The King's Speech Page #4
LIONEL:
I'm sure of anyone who wants to be cured.
ELIZABETH:
Of course my husband wants to be cured! His
position requires public speaking upon
occasion. A torment. I fear the requirement
may grow more frequent.
LIONEL:
TKS/Seidler/09/17/08 8.
ELIZABETH:
He can't.
LIONEL:
Indentured servitude?
ELIZABETH:
Something of that nature.
LIONEL:
Well, have your `hubby' pop by and give his
personal history. I'll make a frank
appraisal.
ELIZABETH:
Doctor...
Logue tries to object but she over-rides.
ELIZABETH (CONT'D)
...I do not have a "hubby". We never talk
about our private lives. Nor do we `pop'.
You must come to us.
LIONEL:
Sorry, this is my game, played on my turf,
by my rules.
The lady lifts her veil.
ELIZABETH:
Perhaps you'll make an exception?
He recognizes her instantly, and is clearly impressed, yet
refuses to be intimidated.
LIONEL:
I thought the appointment was for
"Johnson"?
ELIZABETH:
A name used during the Great War, when the
Navy didn't wish the enemy to know His
Royal Highness was aboard.
LIONEL:
I'm considered the enemy?
ELIZABETH:
You will be, should you continue to be un-
obliging.
TKS/Seidler/09/17/08 9.
LIONEL:
For my method to succeed there must be
mutual trust, complete honesty, and total
equality. That process takes place in my
consultation room. No exceptions.
ELIZABETH:
In which case...
(re-lowering her veil)
I should have kept my pledge. I promised my
husband I'd stop seeking "The Great Cure."
I've wasted your time. And mine.
She exits, closing the door firmly behind her.
LIONEL:
Bloody hell, I buggered that.
