King Silas Benjamin:
Tomorrow has come. Some of you meet it with reproach, and with the unkind thought that the return of any land to an enemy is weakness; lose that thought, friends. The handover of Port Prosperity will take place, and Gath will be our unfiring chum. In the name of peace, I will crush any in the blessed event's way.

Chancellor Hanson:
There are some still in their homes, sir, refusing to leave.

King Silas Benjamin:
Any who have not vacated by the deadline will be arrested; any who resist arrest will be shot - twice.

King Silas Benjamin:
[observing two ministers whispering] Oh - say you have some dissent, please.

Minister Forsythe:
Not at all, sir... Shall I order a media blackout, to keep anyone from thinking you unsympathetic?

King Silas Benjamin:
But I *am* unsympathetic, to all those who oppose my will. Send *more* cameras. Let them remember it was my will that built from the ashes this nation and put in their mouth the right to complain - but there are limits, now reached. Go, do your jobs.

Minister Forsythe:
Sir - what is the official statement on the fate of David Shepherd?

King Silas Benjamin:
Who?
