SCENE 5
(The Winter Palace, St. Petersburg, Imperial Russia.)

ZINDY: (Approaching Fabergé Egg.) It's so beautiful!

ZORK: Yes, it's a Fabergé Egg made for Tsar Alexander III of Russia to give to his wife.

ZINDY:  (Picks up the egg and pretends to bite it.)  Ouch!

ZORK: Zindy, why did you do that?

ZINDY: I wanted to eat it so I could see better in the dark.

ZORK: What?

ZINDY: You told me earlier that it was made from 18 carrots!

ZORK: I meant it was made from pure gold, and precious gem stones and enamel.

ZINDY: Oh, sorry.

ZORK: How do you feel?

ZINDY: I don't think I can see any better in the dark.

ZORK: Well, I hope you've learned your lesson. Now there's one more place to go and we need to travel further back in time. 

SCENE 6
(Westminster Abbey, England, 1689.)

ZINDY: (Covering nose.) What a smell!

KING: (To audience.) Can you believe this awful custom? I have to wash the feet of poor people as a way of reminding me that I must serve my subjects.

ZORK: Poor him.

THREE PAUPERS: We're waiting!

PAUPER 1:  I haven't washed my feet all year!

KING: No, no! I just can't do it. I tell you what: who wants some money instead?

(Three Paupers raise hands quickly.)

KING: (To audience.) I guess handing out Maundy Money will become a new custom. Hope so. Bye!

(Exit King waving.)

ZINDY: I've had a great Easter holiday on Earth.

ZORK: Me too, but it's time to return home to Zargon 5.
