They’re livin’ the dream.

Spear me the trouble. Just as well, the guards can be trusted…..

I bet that those are “Nerf” spears. Would the King have anybody with real sharp things around him?

Bad technique from both of them, one has a couched lance, the other is trying to fence foil with a spear.

This reminds me of the scene in “history of the world part 1” where Comicus and Josephus are battling it out while Cesar just sits there and watches.

“En garde” “Touche”. Sounds like they are acting out a scene from “The Three Musketeers” or some other French swashbuckler.

I see The Fink is enjoying his La-Z-Boy throne…

You’ll put your eye out, kid!

They were bored and were trying to finish what they started earlier.

Gotta have fun on the job. Otherwise, it’s a drag.

If the king wakes up, just tell him that you were training so that you can better protect him.

You’re missing your chance to put an end to the fink’s reign.

Mice will play while the king’s away in slumberland.

A behind the scenes glimpse of the Russian army at work. “Z”

Reinforces the mistaken idea of what “touché” means. In fencing it’s what you say to acknowledge you’ve been hit by your opponent.

If he wakes up, they may be hoisted on their own petards.

Now be careful boys, you might put your eye out.
