It should go something like this:God: So, that could have been a guy under mind control.Paladin: Er, I hadn't thought of that.God: Could've had accomplices that you don't know how to find now.Paladin: Oh.God: Could've given him a trial and then executed him to show it to everyone.Paladin: Well, I could also have carried out his severed head and made an announcement.God: Okay, granted, but he didn't get any opportunity to be redeemed.Paladin: Oh.  Oh, yeah.God: And you didn't give him a fair challenge and chance to defend himself, and even though the little girl was there, you should have done that, because, remember, even flanking can sometimes bring dishonor.Paladin:  Oh, right.God: In atonement, you must perform strenuous physical labor while meditating upon your actions and thinking of the ways in which you might improve your behavior in the future.  Please assume push-up position.Paladin: I will not fail you, my lord.  (drops into push-up position)God: Alright.  Now, give me... two.Paladin: Er, what?God: You heard me.  Two!  Two good ones!  Nose to the ground!  Straight back!Paladin: Um, okay.  One... and... two.  (finishes push-ups)God: Good.  I hope you've learned your lesson.  (gates back up to heaven)</blockquote>
