Quotes 

• Arthur : [after Arthur rescues a beautiful damsel]  Shut up, Merlin.

  Merlin : I didn't say anything.

  Arthur : You didn't have to.

• Arthur : Who are you to tell me what I'm thinking?

  Merlin : I'm your friend.

  Arthur : No, Merlin. You're my servant.

• Arthur : After Sophia left, I wanted to take my mind off her. So I went for a hunt.

  Morgana : [incredulous]  And killing things mends a broken heart?

  Arthur : No. But it's good fun.

• Arthur : [waking up after being unconcious]  What happened? Where am I?

  Merlin : Can you remember anything?

  Arthur : Ah... Oh, my head.

  [thinks sluggishly] 

  Arthur : There was a girl. Sophia. She, uh... I asked my father something about her. I asked him...

  [remembers and sits up, a look of disgust on his face] 

  Arthur : What was I thinking?

  Merlin : Well, we did wonder. Ecspecially when you eloped with her last night.

  Arthur : I did *what*?

  Gaius : Merlin had to bring you back to Camelot.

  Arthur : I don't recall any of this!

  Gaius : Must have been some blow.

  Arthur : [tightly]  *What blow?*

  Merlin : Well once I caught up with you, I couldn't persuade you to return. You were beyond reason. So I had to make you.

  Arthur : [angrily]  You managed to knock me out?

  Merlin : [cheerfully]  Yep. With a lump of wood.

  Gaius : He only did it to bring you back safely.

  Arthur : [stabs a finger in their faces, dead serious]  No one can know about this. Any of this. Is that understood.

  [they nod and Arthur falls back on the bed, groaning]
