That makes no sense.

And there's no way in hell,

if I'm a fruit, I'm a pineapple.

Pineapple for sure.

Take back, right now,

that if I were a fruit, I'd

be a pineapple.

- Take it back now.

- I'm not taking back anything.

It's unfounded!

- You're a pineapple.

- It's unfounded!

If he was...

a state in the United States

of America?

The cabin boy.

The cabin boy?

Yes. It's the cabin boy.

How did you know?

See that? Now who's the pineapple?

Congratulations.

You have two points and

you're ahead so far.

Thank you.

Who's going next?

I'm not playing anymore.

I'm tired and I'm bored of this game.

OK. I'd be bored too,

and give up, if I were losing.

Just because you can guess

who's a kiwi and who's a pineapple,

doesn't mean you're better than us.

In case you're wondering,

you're not the best in general.

You're the best at

that particular game.

Only.

All right, then let's play the game

Of The Best in General...

How about it?

But wait, actually we can't play that,

because that game doesn't exist.

Pity.

Why don't we play something else?

Cards, let's say.

Unfortunately I don't know

how to play cards.

I know a game we can play...

but I don't know if we can

finish it before we get back.

What game?

I played it last year with friends.

It's very simple.

Each of us thinks up a contest

where we all compete.

Anything you want.

A physical test or

a mental challenge.

We each score each other.

And he with the most points, wins.

Sounds fun.

Well, I'm...

I'm not sleepy. I'll play it.

But now that I think about it...

we can't play that without

a chevalier signet ring.

Why the ring?

Because whoever wins,

puts on the ring and wears it

until the next game.

We'll give him something else.

It doesn't have to be a ring.

We can't do that.

How can we play a game

called Le Chevalier,

and then give the winner...

something like a glass of

water, or a vase?

We could play a game called chevalier.

Doc, what if, just to get started,

you lend us your own

chevalier ring?

Don't be ridiculous.

Trivial Pursuit?

Sure. Whatever you guys want.

I do not play Trivial Pursuit.

Yeah, I was just kidding.

Fine. OK.

Why don't we start this game now,

and when we get back to Athens,

we'll get a ring.

Yorgos, are you playing?

I'll play... if we change

the game a little bit.

Meaning?

When do we arrive?

Hopefully tomorrow night.

Okay, so I propose, until then,

we don't judge each other

only on the chosen contests...

But?

But on everything.

Everything we do.

How we speak.

Loudly? Slowly?

What words we use.

How we laugh.

If we show our teeth when we smile.

How we look,

and how we look at each other.

How we walk.
