- King Menelaus would not permit that here.
- Because you'd make his queen look plain.
- Oh, she would be pained to hear you say that.

- Wait. I only ask these questions because I must go to the palace.
- I intend to be discreet, so prepare me.
- If Menelaus is deaf to my errand, I'll ask the queen for help.

- It's late, Andros. We must get the fish to market.
- Gladly.
