When the Warden is about to punish him, he begs him to not see said prisonner again, and the Warden of course decides to have them share a cell.

* BatmanGambit: Zizanion, unable to attack Mithron because of his guards, delivers a message announcing he will make the palace blow up at midday. Bouclette, as a precaution to protect the king, has him immediatly moved to a different, more isolated castle in the country. Turns out this is exactly what Zizanion expected them to do, as it makes it easier for him to place the bomb in this more isolated and unguarded castle ''before'' Mithron arrives. [[spoiler:Fortunately, their car ends up with a damaged tyre and they arrive too late, causing the castle to blow up without them inside.]]
