If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Saturday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Saturday's quote:
Ep #1140 (1692) - Amadeus - 'This man is a warlock, the living embodiment of Lucifer himself--he's depraved and evil!--his acts of sorcery are legendary--he MUST be condemned--and it is your Christian duty to tell this tribunal all you know about him!'
From "#1140/1141: Robservations 10/24/03: Who is Miranda?"
The Robservations references the quote perfectly...

we are transported back in time 150 years, where a very youthful-looking Angelique is being chastised by a man--Amadeus Collins, a judge--in a courtroom--"Wittingly or unwittingly," he says, "you have done Satan's bidding--you realize that the penalty for your sins is death." Yes sir, I know that, she says, trembling. And yet, Amadeus continues, you refuse to bear witness against Judah Zachary. I told you my reasons! she cries. "A curse upon your reasons!" he retorts, banging his fist repeatedly on the table for emphasis. "This man is a warlock, the living embodiment of Lucifer himself--he's depraved and evil!--his acts of sorcery are legendary--he MUST be condemned--and it is your Christian duty to tell this tribunal all you know about him!" I want to, she says, but I can't because I'm afraid of what will happen! You have nothing to fear in this courtroom, he assures her, you will stand here (he points to a podium), draped in the protective cloak of the Almighty--think of it, my child, think of the golden opportunity God has given you--he is willing to forgive your own sins--you will be immune from persecution, and given safe escort out of this country!--but only if you cooperate in helping us dispatch Judah Zachary back to the hell from whenst he came!--if you refuse, you will take his place in the prisoner's dock.[/spoiler]
