A: Bad Precedent
(In the foreground, Baron Czhokula is playing in the pool with Brooke)
CountessCzhokula: Overthrowing Songween will set a bad precedent. The same law that keeps her in power keeps you from getting murdered in your sleep by your own bodyguards.
Jinjur: Oh, but I'm not overthrowing Songween! The lions are! I will avenge her death by executing the assassins!
BaronCzhokula: Upsie-doodle!
BookeCzhokula: Whee! Frow me in again, Daddy! Frow me in again!
CountessCzhokula: You have it all planned out, don't you?
Jinjur: It's a hobby!
B: Succeed
CountessCzhokula: I'm surprised you found lions willing to go along with your scheme. They're not known for helping hyenas.
Jinjur: They approached me some time ago, and offered to, ah... expedite the succession in my favour, shall we say... All I had to do was create a diversion and allow them access to the Palace. They would take care of the rest. A small group of rebels will stage an attack on the harbour, which we will swiftly crush with our troops and this ship. It will look real enough, and last long enough to provide a credible threat, and convince the populace that we put down a coup. By then Songween and her court will be dead.
BrookeCzhokula: Whee, Mama!
