Crimson: Hello, Asmodeus. You don't know me, but you don't need to. All you need to know is that I have your little jester here with me. If you want him back alive, you will give me exactly what I want.
Asmodeus: Do you have any idea who you are FUCKING WITH?!
Stolas: I think it's a recording...
Crimson: You probably just asked if I know who I'm dealing with. And, oh yes, I know: the weakest and most non-threatening of the Sins. The King who will do whatever it takes to save the worst kept secret in all of Hell. We both know you won't risk anything happening to the clown. So be a good little bitch boy and do the thing. My lawyers will be over shortly with the contract of demands. You have until the Witching Hour to sign it. (Evil Laugh) Now cut. I SAID CUT IT, YA FUCKING MORON!! (video message ends)
