CUT TO:
BUTTERCUP: bursting into the Prince's chambers. Count Rugen stands nearby.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 73.
BUTTERCUP: It comes to this: I love Westley.
I always have. I know now I always will. If you tell me I must marry you in ten days, please believe I will be dead by morning.
CUT TO:
PRINCE HUMPERDINCK Just stunned. Finally, softly, he begins to talk.
HUMPERDINCK: I could never cause you grief; consider our wedding off.
(to Rugen) You returned this Westley to his ship?
RUGEN:
Yes.
HUMPERDINCK: Then we will simply alert him.
(to Buttercup now) Beloved, are you certain he still wants you? After all, it was you who did the leaving in the Fire Swamp. Not to mention that pirates are not known to be men of their words.
BUTTERCUP:
My Westley will always come for me.
HUMPERDINCK: I suggest a deal. You write four copies of a letter. I'll send my four fastest ships. One in each direction. The Dread Pirate Roberts is always close to Florin this time of year. We'll run up the white flag and deliver your message. If Westley wants you, bless you both. If not ... please consider me as an alternative to suicide. Are we agreed?
And she nods --

A VERY THICK GROVE OF TREES The trees are unusual in one respect: all of them are extraordinarily heavily knotted.
PULL BACK TO REVEAL Humperdinck and Rugen, walking into the grove of trees.
RUGEN:
Your Princess is really a winning creature. A trifle simple, perhaps, but her appeal is undeniable.
HUMPERDINCK: Oh, I know. The people are quite taken with her. It's odd, but when I hired Vizzini to have her murdered on our engagement day, I thought that was clever. But it's going to be so much more moving when I strangle her on our wedding night. Once Guilder is blamed, the nation will be truly outraged. They'll demand we go to war.
They are deeper into the grove now. Rugen is searching around.
RUGEN:
Now, where is that secret knot?
It's impossible to find.
(Finding the knot on the tree he hits it, and it opens, revealing a staircase leading underground.) Are you coming down into the Pit?
Westley's got his strength back.
I am starting him on The Machine tonight.
HUMPERDINCK: Tyrone, you know how much I love watching you work. But, I've got my country's five hundredth anniversary to plan, my wedding to arrange, My wife to murder, and Guilder to frame for it. I'm swamped.
