• [the Interrogator questions Charlie, who is tied to a railroad track] 

  The Interrogator : Is Kingsman worth dying for?

  Charlie : No it fucking isn't! Shit! I'll tell you what you want, please! Chester King's Arthur! Arthur's head of the secret spy agency! It's called Kingsman! Get me out of here!

  The Interrogator : Thank you, Charlie. Much appreciated.

  [Interrogator walks away] 

  Charlie : No, that wasn't the fucking deal!

  [Train passes over Charlie and the section he's tied to drops down. Section rises as Arthur arrives at the scene] 

  Arthur : I had such high hopes for you. You're a bloody disgrace.

  Charlie : I'm so sorry. Please untie me.

  Arthur : Untie yourself.

  [Arthur walks away] 

  Charlie : Arth- Arthur, please. Shit. Anyone!

  [Merlin, Hart, Eggsy, Roxy, and Percival observe the scene in the control room] 

  Merlin : Galahad, Percival, congratulations. Your candidates have reached the final stage of the testing process. As tradition allows, you will have 24 hours to spend with them. Eggsy, you should know your father reached this point. From now on, there are no safety nets. Understood?

  [Eggsy and Roxy look at each other and nod to Merlin] 

  Merlin : Good. Dismissed.

  [the Kingsman agents and candidates leave the room. Merlin turns around and turns on the loudspeaker at the railway] 

  Merlin : Charlie, time to go home.

  Charlie : Fuck you! Fucking dad's gonna hear about this!

• Merlin : Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Merlin. You are about to embark on what is probably the most dangerous job interview in the world. One of you, and only one of you, will become the next Lancelot.

  [Grabs bag on bed] 

  Merlin : Can anybody tell me what this is?

  [All candidates except Eggsy raise their hand. Merlin selects Charlie] 

  Merlin : Yes?

  Charlie : Body bag, sir.

  Merlin : Correct. Charlie, isn't it?

  Charlie : Yes, sir.

  Merlin : Good. In a moment, you will each collect a body bag. You will write your name on that bag. You will write the details of your next of kin on that bag. This represents your acknowledgment of the risks you are about to face, as well as your agreement to strict confidentiality, which incidentally if you break, will result in you and your next of kin being in that bag. Is that understood?

  [All candidates except Eggsy, still with a confused look, nod] 

  Merlin : Excellent. Fall out.

• Merlin : Congratulations on completing your first task. Charlie, Roxy, well done. For those of you who are still confused, if you can get a breathing tube through the U-bend of a toilet, you have an unlimited air supply. Simple physics... worth remembering. Eggsy, well done for spotting that was a two-way mirror.

  Charlie : He's probably seen enough of them.

  Merlin : Yeah, you can all wipe the smirk off your faces because as far as I'm concerned, every single one of you has failed. You all forgot the most important thing: Teamwork.

  [Merlin points at the quarters. The candidates get up and see that Amelia has drowned] 

  Gary 'Eggsy' Unwin : So much for classic army technique.
