The Scarlet Pimpernel (1982 Film)/Awesome
- Being the Scarlet Pimpernel, Percy is essentially a walking CMoA, but one that particularly stands out comes after Chauvelin has used Armand to lure Percy into a trap, hoping to prevent him escaping with the Dauphin. He now has a pair of soldiers holding each of them while he gloats:
Chauvelin: Good day, Sir Percy. I realize that your nobless oblige would not permit you to abandon one of your men. |
- Another one comes earlier, when Percy reveals to Armand who he is. Armand, up to this point, has thought that Percy is an empty-headed, foppish dandy, albeit one with anti-Revolution sympathies.
Armand: I will warn the de Tournay family and help them flee, if necessary. |
- Of course, the best one of all is when Percy comes back from the "dead". The look on Chauvelin's face when he turns around and sees him standing there is absolutely priceless.
Percy: My good fellow, I would never dream of depriving you of your moment of triumph. Alas, a moment was all I could spare. |
