William Dodd: Sergeant. Can you use a sword?
Richard Sharpe: Aye sir, sometimes sir, when I need to.
William Dodd: Good, then oblige me. It's been a while since I matched steel with an Englishman.
Richard Sharpe: Begging your pardon sir, but - I'm drilled as a rifleman, and no match for your Generalship.
William Dodd: I'll be the judge of that, choose your blade.
Richard Sharpe: I'd sooner not, sir, if it's all right with you.
William Dodd: ...Choose your blade.

William Dodd: [Dodd lunges and Sharpe barely blocks with the still-sheathed sword] You weren't ready for me.
Richard Sharpe: No, sir.
William Dodd: Well let that serve as a lesson to you. The enemy won't announce his intention to strike, and neither will I!
[Sharpe unsheathes his sword and they begin dueling]
William Dodd: That's better, Sharpe, much better.
