  • Porthos : [reacting to D'Artagnan knocking into the waiter, causing food to spill on his sash]  Excuse me! This sash was a gift to me from the queen of America.

    D'Artagnan : [drawing his sword]  Here's my proof.

    Porthos : I see. He thinks he can challenge the mighty Porthos with a sword.

    D'Artagnan : The mighty who?

    Porthos : Don't tell me you've never heard of me.

    D'Artagnan : The world's biggest windbag?

    D'Artagnan : Demonstration? What kind of demonstration?

    Aramis : I don't know.

    Athos : I know someone who does.
