Benton Fraser | Due South

1. I speak eight languages and can sign two more.
2. I am an only child.
3. I'm American.

[ Constable, did you even try? ]

How many siblings do you actually have, then?

[maintiensledroit]

[ He said it with a straight face! ]

...Well, there's only me, Kate.

[ It's possible he doesn't understand this game. ]

[castitas]

[ ... The narration has made a terrible mistake because they can't read properly. Kate must now pay for this. She's going bright red, incredibly flustered. ]

Oh, no. No. I— I'm sorry. I misheard you.

I thought you said you wasn't one. Like I know the third one's the lie, and— I just— I—

[ Lord, please strike her down now. Please. ]

[guidemyway]

I've only heard you speak one language.

[maintiensledroit]

You may have only heard me speak one, but that doesn't mean I only know one.

[guidemyway]

Oh yeah? Prove it.

Is America not a continent? It sounds as if all of these could be true.

[maintiensledroit]

Well, yes. Anyone living in North or South America could certainly call themselves 'American' without truly telling a falsehood.

[ Is that why you picked it, Fraser... so you wouldn't have to actually lie. ]

But during my time, only those in the United States were colloquially known as "American."

[meadqueen]

Ah, and you are from the northern portion. Tricky, Constable.

The hell you ain't American! [ he laughs. ]
