“Percy, this is a very difficult situation.” – Blackadder

Percy, this is a very difficult situation.

Percy

Yes, my lord.

Someone's for the chop. You or me, in fact.

Percy

[uneasily] Y-yes.

Let's face facts, Perc' – it's you.

Percy

Except, I may have a plan!

Oh, yes?

Percy

How about if we get Farrow's head and body and we take it to the Queen, except, just before we get in, we start shouting and screaming, and we come in and say "We were just on our way when he tried to escape, and so we cut his head off in the corridor to teach him a lesson."?

Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. Contemptible. Worth a try. Where'd we put the head?

Percy

It's on a spike in Traitors' Cloister.

Oh god, that's where the Queen's gone! Did she know Farrow?

Percy

Oh yes, they were childhood friends.

Well, if she sees his head on a spike, she'll realize he's dead! You fetch the body. I'll cover the head.
