Transcript
Bartholomew Mcphee and Jack Hacket are seen wandering the castle garden. They hear noises coming from a barrel. They walk over and open it up, revealing Nix and Jayna asleep inside. Nix suddenly wakes up and pokes his upper body out of the barrel. Nix waves to Mortimer Worthingham, who is attempting to crawl through a hole he has dug into the castle. When he realizes he's been spotted he jumps back into the hole and begins running. Nix is lifted out of the barrel by Bartholomew and is placed in front of him. Bartholomew then hands Nix a wooden sword. Everyone goes silent.
 * Bartholomew: Nix!
 * Jack: Nix?
 * Bartholomew: Nix!
 * Jack: Where did you say you last saw him?
 * Bartholomew: Here. He was here in the garden and now he's just gone!
 * Jack: He was sleeping. That lazy bum.
 * Nix: Hey, I'm not lazy!
 * Bartholomew: Ah, good, Nix you're awake! so, now is probably a good time to finally start our training. After all, you've already made your first enemy.
 * Nix: Oh yeah, so I did. Hey Mortimer!
 * Nix: He's fun!
 * Jayna: And annoying.
 * Bartholomew: Now, Nix, the most important thing to remember when it comes to--
 * Nix: What's this?
 * Bartholomew: That's a starting sword, all squires start out with a starting sword.
 * Nix: And it's made of wood?
 * Jack: Oh what, afraid you're gonna get a splinter?
 * Bartholomew: Don't make fun of him, Jack. And yes Nix, all starting swords are made of wood. It goes wood, stone, gold, iron, and steel. Although only people like General Maximus have been able to get a steel sword.
 * Nix: I’ll get steel.
 * Jack: I'm so sure you will. I mean, you were sleeping in a barrel a minute ago, you're already on the right track.
 * Bartholomew: Jack, shut up.
 * Nix: Do you have a problem with me?
 * Jayna: Yeah, seriously, even I'm wondering what's up with you.
 * Jack: Yes, I do have a problem with you. In fact, I have multiple problems with you.
 * Nix: Well there's really only one way I can improve, and that's if you tell me.
 * Jack: You're twelve. There's no way someone like you could ever be a knight and yet everyone loves you. Maximus treats you like you're the son of the holy mother and the only person who doesn't like you is a dude that can be defeated by throwing a rock hard enough at him. It's a miracle that you were ever accepted as a squire but miracles don't come twice, kid. You're not a knight. And you'll never be one.
 * Bartholomew: Wow... cold...
 * Nix: Okay... well... I can appreciate the fact you speak your mind...
 * Jack: Good, cause I got plenty more where--
 * Jayna: Hey, shut up! Nix may not be the best out there but he's one of the kindest people I've ever met. And that's much more than I can say for you!
 * Jack: Being nice gets a knight nowhere
 * Jayna: Well, you--
 * Nix: I'll fight you.
 * Jayna: What?
 * Jack: What?
 * Bartholomew: What!?
 * Nix: You said there's no way I could ever be a knight. Give me a chance to prove that I can.
