A Moment's Decision in Uncertain Times
Anna Leonowens:
Lord Bradley, may I have a moment?
Lord Bradley:
I'm afraid a moment is all we have.
Lady Bradley:
We're leaving on the next boat, and so should you.
Anna Leonowens:
My place is here.
Lord Bradley:
Your question?
Anna Leonowens:
Are the British behind these Burmese attacks?
Mr. Kincaid:
Stick to teaching, Ms. Leonowens. It's clear that you know nothing of pollitics.
Anna Leonowens:
I know that Burma would never make a move without England's blessing.
Lord Bradley:
Precisely. But, if our economy was threatened, then it would be our duty to protect our interests.
Anna Leonowens:
Our economy?! Our interests?!
Lady Bradley:
The ways of England are the ways of the world, my dear.
Anna Leonowens:
Yes, a world that I am ashamed to call my own!
Lord Bradley:
You forget yourself madam. Now if you will excuse us.
Anna Leonowens:
No, I will not. You toasted him! You praised him for his learning! And all the while you were planning to take the throne from him!
Lord Bradley:
Well, you should do well to remember your own self, next time you are cheek to cheek with the king!
