"THE THREE FOOLS" "Good news." "The Count of Cleves and the Bishop of Utrecht have sided with Burgundy." "Utrecht and Cleves on our side." "This is the attack plan of Philip the Handsome." "You have to take it to Utrecht within a couple of days." "And when can we go?" "When this letter is complete." "Without a seal it has no value." "And I don't have the right to seal it." "Who does?" "Reinbout." "Yes, Reinbout." "He's our supreme commander." "You go to him, he seals the letter and then you continue to Utrecht." "Does that bother you?" "Of course not." "Not at all." "Come." "Reinbout's castle." "Strange, there's no flag." "They've been plundered." "This is Reinbout's room." "Bravo." "Floris van Rosemondt floored by a fool." "What's wrong?" "Van Rosemondt?" "The first man I ever hit, is an ally of my master, Reinbout." "Very smart." "I thought you were a soldier of Van Rossem's..." "Did Van Rossem capture Reinbout?" "Yes, Reinbout." "Everybody." "Even the stable boy." "Except the fool." "Except the fool." "Except the fool." "What?" "Why do you look like that?" "Except the fool." "What a coincidence." "Don't hurt me." "I can explain." "Speak." "Van Rossem bribed the gatekeeper to let him and his soldiers in." "They took Reinbout and everyone else to Guelders for a ransom." "Except me." "They only left the fool behind." "So what?" "They didn't want to take me." "Why not?" "Who will pay a ransom for a fool?" "No one." "No one pays a ransom for a fool." "Where is Reinbout's seal?" "He always has it on him." "No one knows where." "We have to find Reinbout." "Let me come with you." "I can help." "Why would you expose yourself to danger?" "Van Rossem will know that he found me too lowly to take me prisoner." "Bravo, good boy, bravo." "Innkeeper, drinks on me." "As long as it's paid for." "We have plenty of money since this morning." "Pay, please." "That's way too much." "Never mind." "Ten." "Have a nice meal, father." "Innkeeper." "My last money." "Now or never." "They're soldiers of Guelders." "Two." "They may know where Reinbout is." "Three." "One." "Man, you'll get ransom money, from that Reinbout." "Shut up, man." "Do you want everybody to hear?" "Food, finally." "You gentlemen are enjoying yourselves." "I lost all my money." "Love thy neighbour." "So to speak." "Here, some drinking money." "Filthy dog." "He's referring to himself." "Hear him bark." "I'll teach you." "Try it." "Try it." "Get them!" "Thanks." "That was close." "What can I offer you?" "Beer, wine?" "Nothing, troubadour." "Moderation won't hurt anyone." "I have to go on." "1 shilling." "Thank you, troubadour." "I like meeting people like you." "Where is Reinbout?" "That beer wasn't very good." "Tell me, where is Reinbout?" "In the tollhouse, on the main road." "That's where the dungeons are the deepest." "And the walls the strongest." "Put them in the basement." "I wish you lots of luck." "This is the tollhouse." "My own castle." "Let's go in." "We have to find Reinbout." "Who?" "Good evening, sir." "We are three fools who would like to give a..." "Three fools." "Three clowns!" "Come in." "Do come in." "We're having a party tonight." "We always like some good jokes." "Come!" "Men, I have a surprise." "The three fools!" "That's fun!" "Fun!" "Fun!" "Start!" "We want to laugh!" "Flip and his two fools know all kinds of poems and ballads." "What do you want to hear?" "A song." "We want to laugh." "Laugh!" "I want to hear a drinking song." "Alright." "A drinking song it will be!" "Come all you outlaws and restless riders" "And gather round here all you outsiders" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "Come fill your glasses and raise them high" "And let us drink and not be dry" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "The dark is rising and the day keeps falling" "Our fire is burning and the wind keeps calling" "So fill your glasses and prepare to fight" "Cheers!" "Let's all drink up and ride tonight" "No more, no never again, no never again" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "Floris van Rosemondt and Sindala." "Van Rossem will be happy." "Who are you, monk?" "Never trust a monk in an inn, in these times." "He could turn out to be Barend van Hackfort, Captain of Guelders." "Take them away." "You love good food, don't you?" "I've got something very special for you." "No, no, I don't want to!" "Put the table in front." "Isn't that a beautiful death?" "Starving to death with a full table in front of you." "Bring our food upstairs." "Too short." "Don't worry, we'll make you longer." "On the rack." "How long have they been here?" "For five days and five nights." "Without anything to eat or drink." "They won't have much time left." "Did Reinbout say where the seal is?" "He won't talk." "Did you check his clothes?" "Everything." "I even tore open the seams, but there's nothing there." "I'll get him to talk." "I'll go see him." "They're going to Reinbout." "We have to hurry." "Wait a moment." "First we eat." "Eat." "Eat." "Yes." "Chicken again?" "We've had chicken for five days." "Would you prefer rabbit?" "Yes." "Don't you want any?" "Does he still not want anything?" "He's fasting." "What good does that do?" "He has to gather mental powers." "Mental powers?" "I don't believe in them." "I believe in strong arms." "Wait and see." "Hold this." "Hurry up." "We'll heat up the pliers." "See if that will make him talk." "Come." "They're going to torture Reinbout." "Bastards." "We have to get out." "We are getting out." "It's not as hard as it seems." "Attach the chains." "Want some chicken?" "Come on... come on." "Too weak to stand up." "Sergeant." "I'm offering you a golden ring, for some water and bread." "Where is that ring?" "Just for me." "Let the others die." "We'll swap." "I can't go any further." "Go on then." "A bit further." "Where is the seal?" "Where is the seal?" "More." "Where is the seal?" "Go ahead." "What do you want?" "Didn't you want to interrogate this man as well?" "Are you crazy?" "Who told you..." "Hurry up." "Guard!" "That wall over there." "What's that rope attached to?" "It's not attached." "Impossible." "Mental powers." "Come." "Philip the Handsome's attack plan." "I hope we're not too late." "This letter has to go to Utrecht urgently." "It has to be sealed first." "We'll do that now." "Where is the seal then?" "They checked all your clothes."
