The Three Musketeers1993

[Cardinal Richelieu's been unmasked over his plot to assassinate King Louis]

King Louis:
You have failed!

Cardinal Richelieu:
[laughs] You are so naive. But things couldn't have gone more perfectly if I'd planned them myself. The King of France dies at the hands of his own personal guards! [heads to throne dais] Grief-stricken, terrified, the huddled masses turn for comfort to their devout spiritual leader... [hands together in prayer, then sits on the throne] who, ever so humbly, assumes the throne... [flays cape across queen's throne] with a queen by his side.

Queen Anne:
I would rather die.

Richelieu:
[kicks stool and stands up] That can be arranged!
