"THE BURNING WATER" "WILL" "Aren't you ashamed?" "During the time of mourning." "Can I have the ball, madam?" "Catch." "Countess!" "How could you?" "So shortly after your uncle's death." "Playing with children..." "in full mourning." "It's against all the rules." " Yes, I know." "I'll go back to my room." "Viola." "How did..." "Viola, I'm so sad." "Play something for me on your lute." "Let go of me." "The will!" "There he goes." "Call the guards." "Countess, what is all this noise?" "Do I have to repeat that..." " They wanted to steal the will." "There was someone in the room." "Are you sure?" "Wasn't it a feral animal for instance?" "Have a look." "There he goes." "I won't have a look." "Excuse me, Countess." "Where are you going?" "I'm taking the will to the court." "It's not safe here." "Court etiquette states that upon the death of the testator the heirs will mourn for six full weeks and will not show themselves in public." "You cannot leave the castle." "Your coat, Countess." "But if the will is stolen, I'll lose all my rights." "That would be very regrettable." "But not as bad as breaching etiquette." "Countess." "Etiquette or not, I don't want to lose the will." "Admiral!" "Chicken, Captain." "Enjoy it, since it's been stolen." "Here, this will keep you warm." "That's enough." "Admiral, the Duke of Guelders has seen fit..." "Why are you here?" "Not for my beautiful eyes." "You have to obtain a piece of paper for us." "What paper?" "I don't even use paper to wipe..." "This piece of paper is a will." "We have tried to get it, but we failed." "I don't care." "The Duke doesn't want it to end up in the wrong hands." "Burgundy, for instance." "If this will has been opened, it is too late anyway." "Admiral, you have to obtain the will for us." "And the heir." "Then we will use light force to make sure that she transfers her possessions to us." "'She.'" "'Her?" "' What 'her'?" "Yes, 'her'." "The heir is a woman." "A woman." " Countess Ada van Couwenberg." "A woman." "I'll go." "Cheers." "Pulling a countess out of her bed is a joy to me." "Remember that the duke wants the countess unhurt." "I'm still worried they'll recognize us." "In spite of the men's clothing." "We have to go." "Gozewijn." "Hurry." "Countess." "Countess." "Countess, please stop!" "I'm hungry." "Come." "Let's eat." "I'm hungry." "I'm hungry!" "Let's eat, men." "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" " Help!" "What's wrong?" " They kicked us out of our house." "Who?" " A big man with a black beard." "Help us, please." " We can't." "We have to go to the court." "Please don't let us down." "We have to help them." "Let's go." "Surrender." "Have mercy, gentlemen." "I beg you." "Have mercy upon a poor robber." "What a coward." "Promise you'll never do it again." " Never again." "Those baby faces thought they could take Pier for a ride." "But you're not cowards." "Pier can use little fellows like you." "You're hired and you too." "Well, men, we have to drink to that." "Right, men." "Here." "Cheers." " Cheers!" "Good afternoon." "I'm looking for my mistress, the Coun..." "Countess, how can you drink with these people?" "Countess?" " Run!" "A countess..." "I'd like to hold that too." "Countess meat!" "Let go of me, brute, let go!" "How dare you?" "Do you know who you're dealing with?" "The Countess of Couwenberg." "With 72 quarters in her coat of arms." "Countess of Couwenberg?" "Hold her." "Where is the will?" " Which will?" "The will!" "Or should I look for it myself?" " Stop!" "It's in my boot." "'Will.'" "Countess of Couwenberg." "This is what we were looking for." "Men, change the direction of the ship." "Come on, walk." "Let go of me, scum." "You're not even of noble birth." "Me, not from noble birth?" "What is your coat of arms then?" "This!" "Who are you then?" "Count of Sloten..." " Lord of Hindeloopen..." "Duke of Sneek..." " King of Friesland!" "Admiral of the Zuiderzee!" "Destroyer of Danes!" "Bane of the Hollanders!" "Big Pier." "Bravo, bull's eye." "Let's make it a bit harder." "Careful!" "Are you injured?" "I'm very sorry." "Normally, nobody comes here." "See, we have to go even further from Oldenstein." "Oldenstein?" "Are you from Oldenstein?" "Is that where you're going?" "Sir Wolter doesn't like disguises." "I don't have time to explain." "We've been captured." "We need help." "Who is 'we'?" " The countess of Couwenberg and me." "Who captured you?" "I don't know." "This big guy." "He was bellowing like a bull." " Does he have a black beard?" "Yes, a black beard up to here." "That's Big Pier!" "We have to hurry then." "Ubbe." "If it was up to me, I'd drown you." "Simply drown you." "I hate Hollanders." "My wife and children were murdered by Hollanders." "That's why I seek revenge on the Hollanders." "Van Rossem said I can't kill you." "But he said nothing about bullying you." "Bite." "Bite!" "Bite." "Lower it." "Did you see?" "One sneeze or yawn and the ring falls and the will..." "I'm hungry." "I'm hungry!" "I'm hungry, hungry, hungry!" "What do we do?" " We have to try it." "It's our only chance." "Do you dare?" " Of course." "Wait a moment." "When do we start?" "We have to agree on something." "When I'll be on the other side, I'll make this sound." "You first." "It worked." "Now you." "If I miss..." " You never miss." "Hey, join us, we need a fourth man." "I'm fine..." "I'm fine here." "Come on, you can make some money." "Or is your pay enough?" "Suffering from cold feet?" " Why?" "Because of how you wear your hat." "Get lost." "Show some respect for your mate." " You know where to stick it." "Do you want me to hit you?" " Try me." "Come on, don't cause any trouble." "Make your bet." "Seven." " Four." "What happened?" " There are gasses in the water." "Can you shoot?" " Of course." "Remember, you can't miss." " Relax." "I never miss." "Ten." " Guys, I've had enough." "Getting scared?" "What are you going to do?" " Having some fun with the Countess." "That's an idea." " An idea!" "Angel hair." "And that skin." " Look into my loyal pirate's eyes." "Hey Countess, give us a kiss." "A nice little kiss." "Shall I tickle you a bit?" "The will!" "After him!" "Now what?" "Cross the water." "Jump!" "Jump!" "The water is burning!" "The water!" " The devil, back!" "The will." "Thank you." "How can that water burn?" "There is gas in it and that's burning." "Wait a moment." "He can't keep up." "You have saved us, but you didn't introduce yourselves." "Can I know your names?" "My name is Sindala." " Floris van Rosemondt." "We'll go with you to the court." "Once the will has been ratified, no one can take it away." "Hurry." " Wait a moment." "Since we're going to the court I'd like to teach you about correct manners in these civilised times." "Good idea." "We're going."
