Nay, Gloster, know that thou art come too soon,

Unless thou wert more loyal than thou art:

I do arrest thee of high treason here.


-Duke of Suffolk    

King Henry the Sixth Part II          Act III, Scene i, Line 95

 

Well there’s always someone getting arrested for treason in these history plays, isn’t there? Sometimes it’s real treason and sometimes it’s drummed up charges. These plays should be nicknamed Days of Treason. Or maybe Seasons of Treasons. Or perhaps, Seasons of Treasons, Sometimes with Reasons. What do you think?



And this would be a scene from Seasons of Teethin', because that's Jess's first tooth that's chomping on my finger.
