Ispovest špijuna iz Severne Koreje

Many of you are familiar with Frank Stockton’s story 'The Lady or the Tiiger?', in which the prisoner must choose between two rooms, one of which contains a lady and the other a tiger...
The king of a certain land had also read the story, and it gave him an idea. Just the perfect way to try my prisoners!' he sad one day to his minister. 'Only, I won't live it to chance... If the prisoner is clever... he'll save his life – and win a nice bride to boot!''
'Excellent idea!' said the minister.

'Yesterday was a fiasco,' said the king to his minister... Well, we have five trials coming up today, and I think I'll make them a little tougher.'
'Excellent idea!' said the minister.

'Confound it!' said the king. 'Again all the prisoners won!' I think tomorrow I'll have three rooms instead of two...
'Excellent idea!' said the minister.
'Your conversation, though flattering, is just a bit on the repetitious side!' exclaimed the king.
'Excellently put!' replied the minister.
