121. REVOLUTIONISTS' RENDEZVOUS. Enrico is there with the General, Major and Countess. Enrico is haranguing the soldiers, giving them final instructions. They all cheer. Enrico calls Major to him and tells him to look after the Countess and after they have captured the palace to bring her there. Major salutes and steps aside with Countess. Enrico goes on haranguing the soldiers and at length says:
SP: "AND REMEMBER THERE IS A PRICE OF THIRTY PESETAS ON THE HEAD OF THE KING!"
They all cheer. Enrico draws his sword and says:
SP: "ON TO THE PALACE!"
He gives orders to fall in, which they do, then forward march. They all march out led by Enrico, the Countess and Major looking after them.
T: THIRTY PESETAS' WORTH OF ROYALTY.
122. KING'S BEDCHAMBER. Councilors standing by bed all salute drunkenly. Two lackeys carry the King (who is dressed in a long white night gown and night cap and hugging a bottle of booze to his chest) and chuck him on the bed, cover him up and stand. The king dozes off into a drunken stupor. Councilors salute and stagger out toward Council Room (followed by lackeys).
123. HALLWAY IN PALACE. Councilors stagger out of King's bedroom across hall and into Council Room.
124. COUNCIL ROOM IN PALACE. Councilors stagger in and sit at table and begin boozing—drinking to:
SP: "GOOD REST TO HIS MAJESTY."
