The Baron
Piter.
My Lord!
Piter.
The Atreides will be leaving Caladan soon, Baron, and I have here your answer from Duke Leto.
What does Leto say, Piter?
He wishes to inform you that Vendetta - as he puts it, using the ancient tongue, the art of Kanly - is still alive. He does not wish to meet or speak with you.
I made my peace gesture... the forms of Kanly have been obeyed.
As you instructed me, I have enlightened your nephews concerning my plan t...
My plan!
The plan to crush the Atreides. Feyd, Rabban... go quietly... no other great house of the Landsraad must ever know of the Emperor's aid to the Baron. The entire Landsraad would turn against the Baron and the Emperor.
Put the pick in there Pete And turn it round real neat.
You're so beautiful my Baron Your skin, love to me Your diseases lovingly cared for For all eternity.
I will have Arrakis back for myself... he who controls the Spice, controls the universe... and what Piter didn't tell you is we have control of someone who is very close to Duke Leto. This person... this traitor... will be worth more to us than ten legions of Sardaukar.
Who is the traitor?
I won't tell you who the traitor is or when we'll attack. However, the Duke will die before these eyes and he'll know... he'll know... that it is I - Baron Vladimir Harkonnen - who encompasses his doom.
