An elderly man visits his grandson, who is sick and in a bad mood. The boy doesn't want to spend the afternoon with his grandfather or listen to a book he finds boring, but the old man ignores his protests and starts reading a novel called The Princess Bride. The movie is directed by Rob Reiner, Peter Falk plays the grandfather, and Fred Savage plays the grandson. The book he reads takes place in a fairy-tale Europe, where Westley, a farm boy, loves Buttercup and is willing to do anything for her. The boy listens reluctantly, and the grandfather promises he'll like the story as the narration gradually breaks through the grandson's objections.

[repeated line] As you wish.
[to Inigo] You're that little Spanish brat I taught a lesson to all those years ago. Simply incredible. Have you been chasing me all this time, only to fail now? I think that's the worst thing I've ever heard of. How marvelous.
I always think everything could be a trap...which is why I'm still alive.
[after knocking out Fezzik] I don't envy you the headache you'll have when you awake. But, in the meantime, rest well...and dream of large women.
[to Buttercup] There is a shortage of perfect breasts in this world. It would be a pity to damage yours.
