Avon and Tarrant in “Unfinished Business”

What's the matter with you, Servalan? I'm offering to set you free.

You're offering to let her go. That's not the same thing.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about the President of the Terran Federation, Ruler of the High Council, Lord of the Inner and Outer Worlds, High Admiral of the Galactic Fleets, Lord General of the Six Armies, and Defender of the Earth.

Get to the point.

The point is, that a few dozen guerrillas walked in, killed her guards, beat her up, and then chained her up. You want to set her free? Convince her that it didn't happen.
