Anyone remember? "Romani ite domum"
For fun, and to smile at "Roma Victa": [spoiler]--[Brian approaches the palace wall at night, and starts painting something
on the wall. He does not, however, see a group of Roman guards approaching
from behind him, led by a Centurion who reads his writing.]

CENTURION
What's this then? 'ROMANES EUNT DOMUS.' People called Romanes, they go the
house?

BRIAN (frightened but beligerent)
It, it says 'Romans go home'.

CENTURION
No, it doesn't. What's Latin for 'Roman'? Come on...

BRIAN
Aaaahh..

CENTURION
Come on.

BRIAN
Ah! Romanus?

CENTURION
Goes like?

BRIAN
Annus?

CENTURION
Vocative plural of 'annus' is?

BRIAN
Anni?

CENTURION
Romani. [He crosses out the 'es' and writes in 'i'.] Eunt? What is eunt?

BRIAN
Go.

CENTURION
Conjugate the verb 'to go'.

BRIAN
Uh. Ire - Uh... eo, is, it, imus, itis, eunt.

CENTURION
So eunt is?

BRIAN
Ah, Uh, Third person plural of present indicative. They go.

CENTURION
But Romans go home is an order, so you must use the?

--[The centurion lifts Brian by the sideburns...Ouch.]

BRIAN
The imperative.

CENTURION
Which is?

BRIAN
Ahm. Oh, oh, um... I, I.

CENTURION
How many Romans?

BRIAN
Ah. Plural, plural... ite, ite.

CENTURION
Ite. [He again corrects the writing on the wall.] Domus? Nominative? 'Go
home'? This is motion towards, isn't it, boy?

BRIAN
Dative, sir.
--[The Centurion whips out his weapon, and prepares to slit Brian's throat.]
Ahh! No, not dative, not the dative, sir. Oh, Ah. Uh. The accusative
accusative. Ah, Domum, sir. Ab domum! Ah! Oooh! Ah!

CENTURION
Except that 'domus' takes the?

BRIAN
The locative, sir.

CENTURION
Which is?

BRIAN
Domum. Aagh! ah.

--[Again, the writing is amended.]

CENTURION
Domum... um... Understand?

BRIAN
Yes, sir.

CENTURION
Now write it out a hundred times.

BRIAN
Yes, sir. Thank you, sir. Hail Caesar, sir.

CENTURION
Hail Caesar. And if it's not done by sunrise, I'll cut your balls off.

BRIAN
Oh, thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. Hail Caesar and everything, sir. Oh!

--[The Centurion walks off, leaving two sentries behind to guard him.]

--[Dawn over Jerusalem. Brian has written the slogan all over the
front of the palace, in letters a hundred feet high.]

BRIAN (passing out)
Finished!

--[The Sentries pick up their shields and spears. One of them points his
spear threateningly at Brian, and speaks.]

ROMAN SOLDIER STIG
Right. Now don't do it again.

--[The two walk off as Brian admires his handiwork. Unfortunately, another
group of guards come along, and realize what has been written. Brian sees
them, and scarpers. They give chase, careless of the citizens.]

INCONSEQUENTIAL
Hey! Bloody Romans.[/spoiler]

Reg: All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?
Attendee: Brought peace?
Reg: Oh, peace - shut up!
Reg: There is not one of us who would not gladly suffer death to rid this country of the Romans once and for all.
Dissenter: Uh, well, one.
Reg: Oh, yeah, yeah, there's one. But otherwise, we're solid.

Gotta love Monty Python
