Ordinary Miracle - A Toast Amidst Tension
King:
Hostess, give us three glasses. It's precious three-hundred-year-old royal wine. Let's celebrate our meeting. (pours wine) For this matter - to the bottom!
King:
Do you want to offend me? Offend a guest?
Wizard:
Be quieter, you're not at your home.
King:
Don't lecture me! I'll blink an eye, the ministers will write off, I'll express regret - and that's it! Whether at home or not - drink!
Wizard:
Don't drink.
King:
Why?
Wizard:
The wine is poisoned.
King:
What did you come up with, the scoundrel.
Wizard:
Then drink first.
King:
That's right, the wine is poisoned. Why throw it away? If you don't want to drink, don't. Pour it back into the bottle. Where will I get good poison now?
