Charlie Brown is inside the English manor, where he is about to be put to death because it is suspected he stole something. Over his head hangs a battle axe and a sword suspended by a rope, the other end of which is in the hands of the couple of aristocrats who have put him on trial. Charlie sincerely says he is innocent, his words coming out of his mouth and floating over to the aristocrats, who swat them away with disgust and certainty.
