"(sings) A legend is sung of where England was young. And knights were brave and bold, the good king had died. And no one could decide who was rightful heir to the throne. It seemed that the land would be torn by war or saved by a miracle alone, and that miracle appeared in London Town. The sword in the stoooooOOOONE!!!!"

"And below the hilt in letters of gold were written these words: "Whoso pulleth out this sword of this stone and anvil is likewise king born of England." Though many tried for the sword with all their strength, none could move the sword nor stir it. Then the miracle had not worked and England was yet without a word, and in time, the marvelous sword was forgotten. This was a dark age, without law and without order. Men lived in fear of one another for the strong preyed upon the weak."

"(he's seen trying to get water from a well) A dark age indeed! Age of inconvenience. No plumbing...no electricity......no nothing! (reaches for the bucket, but almost falls in) Whoa! Oh, hang it all! Hang it all! (brings the bucket up, dousing himself in the process, but hears an engine sound) Oh, now what? Now what? (sees his foot is caught in a chain) Leave-leave off! Leave off! (almost falls over) Oh, you-you-you fiendish chain, you! (sees the damage done to the trees) Ohh…everything complicated. One big medieval mess."

"Now, uh, let me see. (checks a pocket watch) He should be here in.....I'd say half an hour."

"(pokes his head out of a birdhouse) Who? Who! (exits the birdhouse) I'd like to know who!"

"I warned you, Archimedes, I am not sure. All I know is that someone will be coming. (adjusts a small chair) Someone very reluctant."
