- Sir Robert Walpole: Your Majesty, I bring grave news I'm afraid. The company we set up to profit from slave trading in South America has it seems been promising rather more than it can deliver. Without firm action, this crisis could well spell the end for both of us.
- King George I: Er, was ist das?
- [Walpole sighs]
- Sir Robert Walpole: [Loudly] Your English seems to have got worse again, Your Majesty.
- King George I: Er, was?
- Sir Robert Walpole: [Loudly] Have you been back over to Germany again?
- King George I: Ja, ja. Ja. Ich liebe Deutschland, ja.
- Sir Robert Walpole: Yes, I know you love Germany. Some would say that for an English king, you spend rather too much time there.
- King George I: Was?
- Sir Robert Walpole: Er, nothing.
- [Loudly]
- Sir Robert Walpole: We have a bit of a *crisis*.
- [Mimes biting his nails]
- King George I: [Imitating Walpole] Ja, ja?
- Sir Robert Walpole: [Loudly, with hand gestures] I'd like to help *solve*... the *crisis*, but I don't have enough... *power*.
- [Raises his fists above his head]
- King George I: [Uncertainly] Ja, ja?
- Sir Robert Walpole: Do you understand me, or are you just repeating the word 'Yes' in German?
- King George I: [Nods] Ja, ja.
