Black Knight Page #3

Synopsis: This is the story an amusement park employee named Jamal Walker who is magically transported back to medieval times in 14th-century England. There, Jamal meets Sir Knolte, a dissolute knight, before he stumbles into the court of the usurper King Leo. Jamal is impressed by what he thinks is the realism of the theme park; only after witnessing a gory beheading does he realize, with horror, where he really is. Jamal encounters the beautiful Victoria who is scheming to return the queen to the throne, and falls afoul of the evil Sir Percival. Joining forces with Sir Knolte and Victoria, Jamal teaches the rebels some helpful football, golfing, and boxing moves, before he dons the armor of the awesome "Black Knight"!

So, you cannot dance?

Ahh!

Can I dance? Come on, man.

That's how I get down.

Please, pleasure us with your skills.

Now?

Mmm. Silence!

Servants, clear the floor, so Sky Walker

may demonstrate some fine Norman dancing.

Um...

Time to get the boogie on. Oh, yeah.

Dance well, Moor.

I'm startin' to like

this word "Moor" Iess and less.

Your Kingliness, special request?

OK.

Now, this is a pretty white crowd, OK?

So nothin' too crazy.

OK? My life's dependin' on it.

OK, guys, I'm gonna need a bass line.

So I'm gonna need y'all to help me out here,

cos I got a lot ridin' on this, man.

Cos y'all got the trumpets,

so I'm gonna need y'all...

Sky Walker.

Yeah?

I'm getting impatient.

I got it together.

I just want the music to be crisp.

Cos if it's crisp, you're gonna jam.

All right. Kick the beat, man. I need you to

kick it like a white boy ain't never kicked it!

Kick it. Uh, follow me, OK?

Just, uh, one...

Two.

Three.

Excuse me. Um... y'all gonna get me killed!

Sky Walker!

Uh, yeah?

OK.

We're ready, King. One...

Two.

Three.

I think our jester-Messenger knows not his

place in society. Perhaps he should learn it.

Your tongue was in my mouth,

swimming around like an eel.

Yeah, it's called a French kiss.

From Normandy?

Florence and Normandie.

Show me more of this.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Excuse me. You have

no business with this woman.

She was comin' on to me.

Are you accusing our fair princess

of having an interest in thee?

No, I'm accusing her

of having an interest in me.

Prepare to taste cold steel.

Behold!

Halt, coward!

Dance to the music

Dance to the music

Agh!

Assassins! Seize them!

This is an outrage!

Lord Percival, how could this happen?

I would be dead right now

were it not for the heroics of Sky Walker.

That's very nice of you, King,

but we do what we can do.

Hey, look. Please, allow me.

Lighten up on Percy, OK?

Let's show a little mercy for Percy.

Everyone is entitled to one enormous,

Near-Fatal, catastrophic disaster.

Ain't that right, Percy?

Sky Walker,

Allow me to honor you by appointing you

a lord of my court, in charge of security.

What?! My Liege...

The king is talkin'.

Now, that's rude, Percy.

But I guess that's how you were brought up.

Now, you were saying, Your Magnitude?

Yes, as I was saying, is there

some way I could prevail upon you

To stay awhile and

become a lord of my court?

Lord of the court? What comes with that?

Well, I would give you 60 hectares of land...

With 20 men to till it.

Farming?

No, I gotta think about that awhile.

I would also give you women for your bed.

As many as you need.

I've reached my decision.

His Lordship, Sir Sky Walker!

What's up, homie? You straight? Cool.

Um... I decided to stay.

Now, I got an idea how

to make some serious coin.

Have you ever had a Frappuccino?

No? Check this out.

What is it?

Jamal-In-The-Box, man.

Yeah, the first of many. And the good

thing is, it's gonna have a ride-Through.

Yeah, you just gallop up, place your order,

And in seconds, you're outta there,

Killin' and plundering.

Excellent work.

Now, I had my royal tailor whip this up.

Yeah!

Hey, hey, pay attention. See this?

This is my official Sky Walker logo. Yeah.

Whoo! Yes!

Damn, y'all catch on quick.

What do we have here?

Look like you can use some help.

If you think I need help,

you do not understand the game, Moor.

Moor? Well, I prefer "Lordship."

Do you mind?

All right. Excuse me.

All right.

Oh.

To win this game,

you're gonna need your knights.

And you might wanna

leave your rim pawns at home.

Yeah. That's your ass.

Sometimes the queen has to be sacrificed

for the good of the kingdom.

Yeah, but every pawn is a potential queen.

You turn your back,

she'll bite you in your ass.

I don't intend to let the game last that long.

Checkmate.

We should get together

and play again sometime.

I'm sure we will.

Mind your back, Moor.

Lord Sky Walker,

the king demands your presence!

Excuse me there, cuz.

Hey, Your Kingliness.

What's up, big homie? What's happenin'?

Were you not to consult

on issues of security?

Uh... yeah.

Why, what happened?

I was out for a ride with my men.

One of my soldiers caught this peasant

stealing a turnip from the castle garden.

Sire, I beg your forgiveness.

I only did it to feed my starvin' family,

for we are...

Silence. Round up his starving family,

take them all away for execution.

You...

Man just said...

How much did you take?

Only a turnip.

Come on!

And Sky Walker?

Yeah?

We are still waiting on your duke.

My patience is wearing thin.

Yes, Y-Your Fabulousness.

I'm gonna handle a little somethin'.

Get your ass up!

That's the king. Take a good look at him.

Say "King, I'm sorry"!

King, I'm sorry!

King, I apologize!

King, I apologize!

King, that's my ass!

King, that's my ass!

That's your ass. Watch out!

Dead man walkin'! Dead man walkin'!

Dead man walkin'! Dead man walkin'!

Why you bring the mean out in me?!

That's the king, and you're gonna

be punished! Punished severely!

With these coins.

Huh?

OK, go. Get outta here. Go.

Here, take the bag too. Go!

You're free. Go!

Get out. Go.

With the compliments of the king, it is

his pleasure to share with Lord Sky Walker

His booty.

Booty, as in "spoils of war"?

Oh, that booty.

Good night.

Whoo!

Let's get it over with.

You asked to have me delivered to you?

Yeah, so we can talk.

Mm-Hm!

No, seriously.

Um... if you're not naked, they may hear us.

Uh... Iet me break it down for you.

I asked him to bring you here for this

so they wouldn't get suspicious.

Now, we gotta act like we're doin' the do, OK?

Cos the guard's right out front. Uh...

Oh! Oh, yeah!

Oh! Oh, girl! Yeah, there it is.

Oh! Ooh! Oh, remind me

to thank the king! Whoo!

Uh...

Sire, you're hung like a horse!

Oh! Oh!

Oh!

Work with me. The king is crazy.

He's killing people over vegetables.

So you'll help with the rebellion?

Oh, no, I got to get outta here.

If the real messenger shows up

they'll slice me up like Wonder Bread.

But you wear the medallion.

You're a man with honor.

And as lord, you now have

even greater access to the king.

Ohh!

Good.

Ohh!

Whoo! Put that up right there.

Now hold that right there. Whoo!

Look, I'm not the guy you're lookin' for.

Then I have nothing more to say to you.

And that is how I break it down.

She's quite a spirited one, eh, sire?

Whoo! Where did y'all get her?

Oh! One in a million.

I was hopin' you'd come back

to say good night.

Halt!

I am Jobert of Normandy,

with a message from the Duke DuBois.

Sky Walker.

Hm?

Oh!

Regina?

Regina?!

What are you doin' here?

You dare to deflower the king's daughter?

Somebody got to that flower

long before I did.

You need to know...

Your daughter's a freak.

Ohh!

The girl has been soiled.

The duke will no longer be interested in...

The duke will no longer be interested in

your daughter's hand in marriage. Good day.
