Henry, thou art a fool. A fool, I say!

Who wouldst settle for the simpering Charlie when Betty, the fairest and funniest maid in all of broadcast TV land, pines for thee openly?

Thy intentions were indeed noble at The Middle Ages putting thyself on the line when thou didst learn of Betty’s dangerous plan to mount the wild metal steed that she might win the currency to buy passage abroad for her troubled father.

“I have thighs of steel,” she didst explain to Christina. “If that’s what it takes to help my father, I will ride that giant robot horse all the way to Mexico!”

Thou quickly made haste to take her place, though thwarted by a call from Charlie. And when Betty was flung from the beast, again thou tried to do the right thing, suffering grave injury after defending her honor to a heckling knave “American Gladiator”-style. But no sooner didst thou confess to Betty of thine affection with an “I love you,” then thou didst leave with Charlie!

Pray, tell me how a lad darest leave with one lady after professing love to another. Methinkst, Henry, thou art a bonehead.
