TEXT: THE ANDROIDS OF TARA BY: DAVID FISHER Part Three Running time: 23:52 [SCENE_BREAK] ZADEK: Are you mad? ARCHIMANDRITE: Seize him! He's killed the Princess. FARRAH: Stop! That's not the Princess. ARCHIMANDRITE: It's an android. ZADEK: How did you know? DOCTOR: A circuit must have been faulty. I heard it spark. GRENDEL: And who might you be, pray? ARCHIMANDRITE: But it doesn't make sense. Why send an android to swear loyalty to the King? DOCTOR: To get close enough to kill him. ARCHIMANDRITE: But who would want to kill the King? DOCTOR: Ah. ARCHIMANDRITE: Unless GRENDEL: My dear Archimandrite, what are you suggesting? ZADEK: Treachery against His Majesty. GRENDEL: Take care what you say, Zadek. Your Eminence, I suggest we postpone the oath-taking for the time being. Who knows how many other programmed androids there may be. ARCHIMANDRITE: You think there are more? GRENDEL: It is a possibility we must face, your Eminence. I shall leave my own personal guard here to protect His Majesty. ZADEK: I'm afraid I cannot permit that, Count. GRENDEL: It is not for you to say. ZADEK: As Commander of His Majesty's bodyguard, it is my decision and mine alone. GRENDEL: You presume too much, Zadek. Well, what does His Majesty have to say on the matter? He is very quiet. DOCTOR: Ahem. His Majesty is very tired. Can't you talk about this tomorrow? GRENDEL: Who the devil are you, sir? DOCTOR: I'm the King's Doctor. ARCHIMANDRITE: Is His Majesty ill? DOCTOR: No, nothing a nice rest won't cure. He'll be all right tomorrow. ARCHIMANDRITE: I understand,
