Uther Pendragon : [looks out a window] There must be some way to rid ourselves of this aberration.
[the advisors look at each other and King Uther looks at Gaius]
Uther Pendragon : Gaius?
Gaius : [unfolds his arms] We need a Dragonlord, Sire.
[Prince Arthur looks up]
Uther Pendragon : You know very well that's not an option.
Gaius : Sire what if... there was indeed one Dragonlord left?
Uther Pendragon : [looks out a window] That's not possible.
Gaius : But if there was?
[King Uther turns around and walks towards Gaius]
Uther Pendragon : What are you saying?
Gaius : It may just be rumour.
Uther Pendragon : Go on.
Gaius : [quite confident] I'm not exactly sure but... I think his name... is Balinor.
Uther Pendragon : Balinor?
Arthur : Where does he live?
Gaius : He was last seen in Cenred's Kingdom, in the border town of Engird, but that was many years ago.
Arthur : [gets up, clutching his shoulder] If this man still exists, it is our *duty* to find him.
Uther Pendragon : [to Arthur] Our treaty with Cenred no longer holds. We are at war.

[Gwen is attending to Arthur]
Gwen : [seriously] You shouldn't have risked your life.
Arthur : [quite proudly] I wasn't going to let anything happen to you.
[Gwen smiles and as she applies a wet cloth to Arthur's chest, he puts his hand on her hand. They don't see Gaius watching nearby and he happily walks away]

[outside, soldiers and servants are attending to the damage as Merlin is preparing to leave]
Gaius : You got everything you need?
[Merlin is concerned he may have upset Gaius earlier]
Merlin : I'm sorry. I didn't mean to...
Gaius : [nods understandably] I know that.
Arthur : [approaching his horse] Come on Merlin.
Merlin : You're ready?
[Prince Arthur mounts his horse]
Arthur : [annoyed] No thanks to you.
[Merlin goes to his horse and sees Arthur silently straining]
Merlin : You OK?
Arthur : [not bothered] It's just a scratch.
[Merlin mounts his horse and Prince Arthur rides on ahead]

Arthur : I feel great!
-
Arthur : No!
-
Arthur : I always thought silence would be a blessing with you, but I find it just as irritating. You're a riddle, Merlin.
Merlin : A Riddle?
Arthur : Yes. But I've gotten to quite like you.
Merlin : Yeah?
Arthur : Now that I realize you're not as big a fool as you look.
Merlin : Yeah, I feel the same; now that I realize you aren't as arrogant as you sound.
Arthur : You still think I'm arrogant?
Merlin : No
[Shaking his head]
Merlin : More... supercilious
Merlin : That's a big word Merlin. Are you sure you know what it means?
Merlin : Condescending.
Arthur : [With a nod] Very good.
Merlin : Patronizing,
Arthur : [Shaking his head a bit] It doesn't quite mean that.
Merlin : No. These are other things you are.
Arthur : Hang On!
Merlin : Overbearing.
Arthur : [Arthur hears a twig snap and picks up his sword.] Shh...
Merlin : [Not having heard the snap, he looks over and repeats louder] Very Overbearing.
Arthur : Merlin!
[Trying to get him to be quite.]
Merlin : But, you wanted me to talk.
-
Merlin : [Somberly, Merlin is helping put Arthur into his armor. Trying to lighten the mood] Well, look on the bright side Merlin, chances are you won't have to clean this again.
Merlin : [Merlin looks very serious at him] You Must be careful today. Do Not Force the Battle.
Arthur : Yes! Sire!
Merlin : I'm Serious.
Arthur : I can hear that.
Merlin : Let matters take their course.
Arthur : Merlin, If I die, please ...
[He trails off and Merlin stops what he is doing and looks at him]
Arthur : What?
Arthur : The Dragonlord today ... I saw you; one thing I tell all my young knights: no man is worth your tears.
Merlin : Yeah.
[clearing his throat]
Merlin : You're certainly not.
Arthur : [Arthur picks up a sword and then looks puzzled when Merlin picks up one too.] What are you doing?
Merlin : I'm coming with you.
Arthur : Merlin, the chances are I'm going to die.
Merlin : Yeah. Yeah. You probably would if I wasn't there.
Arthur : [Scoffing] Right
Merlin : Do you know how many times I've had to save your royal backside?
Arthur : Well, at least you got your sense of humor back.
