So, as some have implicitly pointed out, this isn’t Lancelot at all, this is Arthur. And that’s not Guinevere at all either—that’s Morgan le Fay, his half-sister, giving him that sweetly chaste embrace. (NOT!)

This is the cruise to Avalon? Arthur looks a little bit livelier than I expected. And I thought there were supposed to be three ladies escorting him, not one tramp and two buff dudes.
