Tsar Nicholas II:
All we do is dream of England. We have been very happy there.

Alexander Kerensky:
England will not accept you.

Tsar Nicholas II:
Won't accept? King George is my cousin!

Alexander Kerensky:
He does not seem to want you, either. He has got his own station to worry about.

Tsar Nicholas II:
Yes, I must not make trouble for...

Alexander Kerensky:
Neither will the French. They are at war to save liberty. You were an autocrat.

Tsar Nicholas II:
Damn it! I am a father with a family! Is there not any way? How about Finland? It is only thirty miles away!

Alexander Kerensky:
I would never get you out of Saint Petersburg alive. Are you aware that I am all that stands between you and the block? You will be safe under my administration, you have my promise on that. There is blood enough on everybody's hands; I will not have yours on mine. A fine mess Russia in in. Treasury is empty. The Radicals want this, the Socialists want that, the Kadets want the other thing. The Bolsheviks want this, the Mensheviks want that. I could not throw them in jail even if I wanted to! You had power but no laws; I have laws but no power.

Tsar Nicholas II:
I wish I could help.

Alexander Kerensky:
You had your chances. I sure hope I get mine.
