Duke of Wellington:
Now, let's turn to the second front, my lord. (pulls out a map)

Blackadder:
Certainly. (studies the map) Now, as I understand it, Napoleon is in North Africa; and Nelson is stationed in...?

Duke of Wellington:
Alaska, Your Highness. In case 'Boney' should try to trick us by coming via the North Pole.

Blackadder:
(stares at him incredulously for a moment) Yessss... well, perhaps a better strategem, Your Grace, might be to harry him amidships as he tries to leave the Medditeranean... Trafalgar looks favorable.

Duke of Wellington:
(intrigued) Trafalgar, eh? Well, I'll mention it to Nelson. I must say, I'm beginning to regret the necessity of killing you, Your Highness- I'd heard from all and sundry that the Prince was a confounded moron!
