King and Urquhart in “Unfinished Business”

How much does Bullerby have? What could he publish?

Everything the princess was able to tell him. A lot of it's hearsay, of course. But I'd say there's enough to bring down the Monarchy for good.

Damn you man, is that what you want?

No, sir. It is not what I want. And I think – I'm sure, in fact – I could persuade him to suppress the more sensitive items.

The price being my silence and complicity, I suppose.

You might see it in those terms.

All right, do your worst.

I beg your pardon, sir?

I don't think the people will want any more muckraking. I think the whole nation is sick to death of negative campaigning and dirty tricks. They want to be given hope, they want something positive. I want to show them that there is an alternative, and I shall.

You have given your word, sir.

I have given my word not to make any political speeches, and I shan't. But I shall make it very clear that I oppose you bitterly and everything you stand for. You think you are an honourable man. I don't think that anymore. I think you and your party are intellectually and morally bankrupt. It's time for you to go, and you know it.

I shall like to formally request a dissolution of Parliament in preparation for a general election.

Granted, Mr Urquhart.

Why are you doing this? What could possibly be in it for you?

You really don't understand, do you? I do believe you're frightened of me, Mr. Urquhart.

You believe that if it gives you any comfort, sir.
