(The town of Bafsk. Music cue, "Work I Say". Dark Knights are working all over, hauling lumber, lifting girders, throwing tools over a house or two into a set of stairs. One man in the middle of the town is the only one not working. He wears a blue coat, pants, pirate-like hat, and has a curly red mop sticking out of it. This is General Borghen, a man that was once a count for the kingdom of Fynn. Firion and co. spot the Dark Knights and Borghen, and Firion jerks Maria and Guy behind a building again.)
Firion
(Through clenched teeth) Get back! (They quickly hide, but then peep slowly back out when the Dark Knights begin to sing.)

Dark Knights
(Chanting) Wood,/Steel,/Cement,/And faster!/Wood, and lift!/Steel, and rise!/Cement, and drag along!/And faster! (Singing) As I slave over this giant airship,/I wonder will the rebels know just/What has hit them? Who knows./This will show them all what for!/We won't quit! (They lay down their tools, and begin to dance)/Not until the...

Borghen
(Singing) Get back to work!/Hear me now? To work I say!

Dark Knights
(Singing) We're working hard as we can/To finish the Dreadnought.

Borghen
(Singing) Get back to work!/Hear me now? Get back to work!/To work I say! Lest we don't finish...

Firion
(Whispering to Guy and Maria) Come on!
(They slink around the buildings just as Borghen whips his head around. Firion and co. quickly duck behind another building.)
Borghen
(Half singing, half speaking) Who goes there? Who calls me?/Prob'ly just nervous ears.../Try to keep your freakin' voices down,/Lest a rebel spy hears us!

Dark Knights
(Singing) We just need to finish!/We must now get back to work!

Borghen
(Singing) Get back to work!/Hear me now? To work I say!

Dark Knights
(Singing) We're working hard as we can/To finish the Dreadnought.

Borghen
(Singing) Get back to work!/Hear me now? Get back to work!/To work I say! Lest we don't finish.../(As Firion ushers Guy and Maria on while Borghen is distracted) To work I say! Lest we don't finish...
(Firion eventually spies the Agent that Hilda had told them about. He beckons Maria and Guy closer to him, and they eventually come up to the Agent. He looks over the trio.)
Agent
Are you the ones that Hilda told me to look out for?

Firion
We are a part of (whispering) the Wild Rose Rebellion!

Agent
That answers my question. Just follow the paths to the best of your ability, and you'll reach the Dreadnought in no time. Good luck. (Runs off to "help" with the ship.)

Firion
Come on! (They dash down the stairs.)
Don't ask me why I chose to name the song Borghen and the Dark Knights sing "Work I Say"; it was mostly modeled after what he says to you when he's in charge of overseeing the Dreadnought's construction. Specifically, the part where he says, "Back to work! Work, I say!" or whatever. It's to the tune of Deliver Us from The Prince of Egypt.

Final Fantasy II copyright to Square Enix, Deliver Us to the writers of Prince of Egypt, the idea to make FFII a musical to me.
