You know what you need after a hard day's hunt?
Sleep.
A nice cold tankard of mead.
Mead. [Disbelievingly]
[Merlin shakes head, and follows on horse]
“Gwaine” · Season 3, Episode 4
In this episode: Merlin (5), Arthur Pendragon (4), Gwaine (3)
[Adjusting horse straps] There's no better place to measure the mood of your people, than the local tavern.
This is one of those moments where I tell you something isn't a good idea and you ignore me, isn't it?
You're learning Merlin slowly, but, you're learning. [Pause] Now remember, in here, you're not my servant, I'm just a simple peasant like everyone else.
[Merlin nods skeptically, turns]
The simple part's right.
What?
I said the sun is very bright.
[looks around] Yeah, yeah it is.
SServing Lady
Afternoon, what'll it be?
Ah...
SServing Lady
Mmm, you're a handsome fellow.
Well, you wouldn't be the first to say it.
SServing Lady
Oh no, sorry, I was talkin' about your friend here.
Him? [Looking at Merlin incredulously]
Thank you!
[Flatly] Two tankards of mead, please.
I was wrong. Coming here was a great idea.
[Thug comes in and threatens serving lady]
Take your hands, off her.
[Thug turns and throws punch (Arthur dodges)]
TThug
I'm gonna make you pay for that.
[at table, laughs] I'd like to see you try.
[Thug turns, calls in more thugs]
[through clenched teeth] You had to open your big mouth, didn't you, Merlin?
[walks up to thug] You two have got yourselves in a bit of a pickle, haven't you?
You should get out of here while you have the chance.
You're probably right. [takes drink, offers tankard to thug, smiles, punches thug in the face] [bar fight ensues]
[Merlin ducks behind counter]
Pass the jug. [Merlin grabs jug, Gwaine takes drink, turns, and punches a thug]
What do they call you then?
Merlin.
[Shake hands] Gwaine, pleasure to meet you. [Merlin begins to yell "Watch out!" Gwaine turns and smashes the jug in the face of opponent, turns to Merlin]
Such a waste, huh?
[Gwaine struggles against armed guards]
[To the king] Nobility is defined by what you do, and not by who you are, and these men ... are anything but.
