[draws his sword]
What do you say, boy? Should I be afraid of you?
Romulus Augustus:

Odoacer:
"Why is Caesar treated so?"
[Odoacer seizes Romulus by the hair and holds up the sword so that his face is reflected in it]
Odoacer:

Romulus Augustus:
I see...
Odoacer:
Tell me.
Romulus Augustus:
I see a Caesar. I *am* Caesar.
[pause]
Odoacer:
Wrong answer.
