King George VI:
David, I've been trying to see you

King Edward VIII:
I've been terribly busy.

King George VI:
Doing what?

King Edward VIII:
Kinging.

King George VI:
Really? Kinging... is a precarious business these days. Where's the Russian Tsar, Where's... cousin Wilhelm?

King Edward VIII:
Ugh, you're being dreary.

King George VI:
Is Kinging laying off... 80... staff and buying more pearls for Wallis while people are marching across Europe singing The Red Flag?

King Edward VIII:
Stop your worrying, Herr Hitler will sort them out.

King George VI:
And who will sort out Herr Hitler?

King Edward VIII:
Where's the bloody '23?

King George VI:
AND YOU PUT THAT WOMAN IN OUR MOTHER'S SUITE!

King Edward VIII:
Mama's not still in the bed, is she?

King George VI:
That's not funny.

King Edward VIII:
Here it is, Wallis likes the very best.

King George VI:
I don't care what... woman you carry on with at night as long as you... show up for duty in the morning.

King Edward VIII:
Wallis is not just some woman I'm carrying on with, we intend to marry.

King George VI:
[pause] Excuse me?

King Edward VIII:
She's filing a petition for divorce.

King George VI:
Good God... can't you just give her a nice house and a title?

King Edward VIII:
I'm not having her as my mistress.

King George VI:
The Church doesn't recognize divorce and you are the... head of the Church

King Edward VIII:
Haven't I any rights?

King George VI:
Many privileges.

King Edward VIII:
Not the same thing. Your beloved common man may marry for love, why not me?

King George VI:
If you were... a common man on what basis could you... possibly claim to be king?

King Edward VIII:
Sounds like you've studied our wretched constitution.

King George VI:
Sounds like you haven't.

King Edward VIII:
That's what this is about, brushing up. Hence the elocution lessons, thats the scoop around town.

King George VI:
I'm trying to...

King Edward VIII:
Yearning for a larger audience, are we B-B-B-B-Bertie?

King George VI:
[pause] Don't...

King Edward VIII:
What's that? I'm sorry, I... younger brother trying to push older brother off the throne, p-p-p-p-positively medieval.
