[Robert the Bruce is visiting his leper father]
Father?
Robert's Father:
Ah, come in. Come in.
Robert the Bruce:
A rebellion has begun.
Robert's Father:
[pause]
Under whom?
Robert the Bruce:
A commoner... named William Wallace.
Robert's Father:
[another pause]
You will embrace this rebellion. Support it from our lands in the north. I will gain English favor by condemning it and ordering opposed from our lands in the south. Sit down. Stay awhile.
Robert the Bruce:
This Wallace... he doesn't even have a knighthood. But he *fights*, with *passion*, and he *inspires*.
Robert's Father:
[laughing]
And you wish to charge off and fight as he did, eh?
[Robert nods slightly]
Robert's Father:
So would I, eh?
[he laughs again]
Robert the Bruce:
Well, maybe it's time.
Robert's Father:
[the elder man stops laughing]
It is time... to *survive*. You're the seventeenth Robert Bruce. The sixteen before you passed you land and title because they *didn't* charge in. Call a meeting of the nobles.
Robert the Bruce:
But, they do nothing but talk.
Robert's Father:
Rightly so. They're as rich in English titles and lands as they are in Scottish, just as we are. You admire this man, this William Wallace. Uncompromising men are easy to admire. He has courage; so does a dog. But it is exactly the ability to *compromise* that makes a man noble. And understand this: Edward Longshanks is the most ruthless king ever to sit on the throne of England. And none of us, and nothing of Scotland will remain, unless *we* are as ruthless. Give ear to our nobles. Knowing their minds is the key to the throne.
