Rat King

Rat King

You’re powerful.

Baba

I’m just an old lady.

Rat King

Bah, you’re a liar and you think I’m stupid… I’m not.

Baba

Forgive me, I’m used to dealing with folks who wear blinders to the world.

Rat King

That’s a lot of words to say "moron".

Baba

No need to be cruel.

Rat King

No… I have every reason to be cruel.

Rat King

You may be a human, but at least you're a New Yorker.

Baba

Let's go find some tourists.

Baba

And how are you doing your Highness?

Rat King

You makin' fun of me?

Baba

No. I feel like you setting your sights on Long Island instead of Manhattan was quite magnanimous and I appreciate it.

Rat King

I pride myself on ruling tough but fair.

Baba

As all monarchs should.

Solomon

You know how to play chess?

Rat King

I don't care about chess.

Solomon

You should. It's the game of kings. And when you're ruling long island you gotta be ready if some dignitary wants to play.

Rat King

Can you teach me?

Solomon

As long as you're not afraid to lose.

Rat King

I'm not afraid of anything, crumbum.

Solomon

Then I'm ready to start when you are.

Rat King

Why do you spend so much time in Central Park.

Solomon

Because humanity is magical. And there's no better place to watch people than the park.

Rat King

I get it. That's how I feel watching the pinkies eat at the dumpster behind Enzo's Pizzaria.

Solomon

The one on 3rd?

Rat King

8th.

Solomon

Yeah that makes sense.

Solomon

New York awaits, my king.

Rat King

Why are you being so nice.

Solomon

Because it's my nature.

Rat King

But you got an angle.

Solomon

Everyone has an angle… mine is just benign.
