- Colonel.
- Not now, Parker.
I'm not in the mood.
I'm sorry, what I have to say will not wait.
In the guise of friendship, you and your men have taken gross advantage of this town.
You behaved abominably towards Miss Heywood, you insulted me and my family and I will not stand for it.
- What are you going to do?
- You claim to be a man of honor.
I'll ask you now to prove it.
- (snickers) Are you challenging me to a duel?
- Here is the money I owe you.
100 pounds.
You can take it right now, or-- - Or?
- You can accept my wager.
- What's the stake?
- If you win, you keep our money and I shall honor the shopkeeper's debts myself.
- And if you win?
- Then you will pay every penny that you owe the town.
You will write off my debt and you will leave Sanditon never to return.
