Queen Esther:
[after being told of the King's intentions]
And who is this honored man?
Haman, the Amelekite:
A scribe. A Jewish scribe, who claims to have saved the King's life.
Queen Esther:
I should think you would be honored by such a privilege given by the King.
Haman, the Amelekite:
[seething]
Honored? Prestige of Persian is at stake. What will it be said of your husband, the king that he commanded his highest prince to lead a Jew through the streets? A Jew, my lady!
Queen Esther:
And how is a Jew any different than you or I?
Haman, the Amelekite:
They are our enemy! They must be destroyed.
Queen Esther:
They may your enemy, but not mine.
Haman, the Amelekite:
The way you defend them, one might almost think...
Queen Esther:
[challenging]
One might think what, my prince?
Haman, the Amelekite:
One might think that is all, my lady. One might think.
