Slim: Its all a matter of understanding how a castle works. Where's there's a harem, there's a secret passage.
Rich: How did you know it was here?
Slim: I have my ways.
Rich: You overheard some guard talking about it when you went to get the fruit, didn't you?
Slim: Well, yeah, but I found it.
Rich: Good, but how do any guards get through that crack? It seems pretty small.
Slim: That's because it's not for the guards to get in, it's for the girls to get out.
Rich: I don't understand.
Slim: Of course you don't. If you were stuck in a harem with a bunch of other girls, and only one man and the occasional visitor for male company, how many years would it be before you started digging your way out?
Rich: Wouldn't someone noticed them missing?
Slim: For someone who reads as much as you do, you can be pretty slow. It's so they can see their boyfriends.
Rich: Oh, I see. Wouldn't the king get upset about that?
Slim: I'm sure he would if he found out...that's why it's a secret.
Rich: Well, lets just find Dory and get out of here. You'd better go in, I'm too big...and besides you look more like a...
Slim: Don't even finish that.
Rich: ...Well, what do you see?
Slim: Oh my god, oh my god, oh my...
Rich: Knock it off, what do you see?!
Slim: I've died and gone to heaven...now I know why everyone wants to be king!
Rich: I meant, do you see Dory?
Slim: Wait...yes, I do. She's tied up with another girl.
Rich: Maybe you should take a picture, it would last longer.
Slim: Oh, no, they are not tied to each other, but this is good, too.
Rich: Can you get her out?
Slim: Wait, the other girls seem to be going somewhere. I think I can do it, but I'll have to be quick.
Rich: As I recall, that was the nicest thing your last girlfriend said about you.
