19 Ask the Oracle of Delphi what we can do to fix this problem! The Oracle states we must exile or kill the murderer of the former king.

20 Creon told me you may know who murdered the former king. Ummmm….If I were you, I would stop asking those type of questions. Well, if you must know, you killed him, and you don’t even know who your real parents are!

21 You rat! Why did you pay off Tiresias to tell such lies?!?!?!?! I DID NO SUCH THING! Stop Fighting!

22 Calm down! Listen to the story of my first-born son! Oh…

23 Message from Corinth: Your father is dead! At least I can no longer fulfill the prophecy! No chance you’ll catch me at that funeral, though.

24 Oh, btw, you are adopted. Oh…

25 I really don’t think you should try to find out who killed my former husband. Please let it go. Don’t be silly.

26 Was I really adopted? Yeah. You were supposed to be killed at birth. I saved you. Check out your ankles.
