Persian: I am the emissary to the ruler of all the world, the God of Gods, King of Kings, and by that authority I demand that someone show me your commander! Listen. Do you think the paltry dozen you slew scare us? These hills swarm with our scouts! And do you think your pathetic wall will do anything other than fall like a heap of dry leaves in the face of- [he observes the wall built with dead Persian soldiers] Stelios: Our ancestors built this wall, using ancient stones from the bosom of Greece herself! And with a little Spartan help, your Persian scouts provided the mortar! Persian: [angrily] You will pay for your barbarism! [he swings his whip at Stelios; though Stelios jumps up and slices off his arm with a sword. The Persian falls down] Persian: My arm! Stelios: [pointing the sword at the Persian] It's not yours anymore! [pause] Stelios: Go now, run along and tell your Xerxes that he faces free men here, not slaves! Do it quickly, before we decide to make our wall just a little bit bigger! Persian: [the Persian starts chuckling] No... not slaves. [pause] Persian: Your WOMEN will be slaves. Your sons your daughters, your elders will be slaves! But not you. By noon this day, you will all be dead men!
