Rating: G
Length: 266
Competitor: Raoul
Round/Fight: 2/A

Lesson Five: Constructive Dilemma. If P then Q and if R then S; P or R, therefore Q or S.
Now, this is where we really begin to narrow it down. Headquarters did have restricted access, and aside from you, the commander of our camp, there were only two people with clearance to that area – two men who were, in fact, both likely candidates for the object of your hidden desires.
You’re getting that ‘thinking’ expression on your face again. I’ll wait for it. The moment it dawns on you, I’m certain that you will be filled with nothing but shock – yes, there it is. Please, contain your disgust! I am not insinuating that you were consorting romantically with a knight who, aside from being happily married with children older than you are, was also our former training master. However – I beg your pardon? I am going to pretend that you never even mentioned aging well. Would you like to hear the rest of my argument? I thought as much.
Now, I had been left feeling rather torn, as the method of constructive dilemma had me both curious and revolted. According to that argument, there were a series of choices you might have made on your own that would have changed the outcome of the affair. If, in the hallway, you turned left, then you would have been going to our lord Stump, and if you had turned right, then you would have been heading toward our realm’s greatest commander Giantkiller. You must have turned either right or left, and therefore you either went to our Lord Stump or our Commander Giantkiller.
Have I impressed you with my logic? In all actuality, I have impressed myself.

Maybe once we'd have seen it during Smackdown!
