Mayor- "Thank you Masked Man. Please let us show our gratitude with this gift."

Masked Man- "No. I will not take any gifts"

Mayor- "Why not? Please accept our gift."

Masked Man- "No. I cannot accept any gifts"

Mayor- "What, do you think you're too good for our gift?"

Masked Man- "Oh, ok. I'll accept a gift. I want the horse."

Mayor- "The horse? Why? What do you want to do with the horse?"

Masked Man- "An unnatural act."
