Merlin and Gaius argue about the true intentions of the knight and sorcerer Mordred, who has been foretold to be the one to kill King Arthur in a prophecy.
"He's beguiled you. He's beguiled you all."
Commentary:
In regards to Miss Mags Wildwood, Capote describes her physical appearance by employing the word beguile, stating that her odd features possibly created a false sense of attractiveness that could be compared to true beauty. Merlin, when discussing the actions and sticking to his "gut-feeling" that something is not quite right about Mordred's actions, accuses Gaius, along with the citizens of Camelot, of being victims of the sorcerer's trickery.
