Answer: Fezzik

At the end of the movie, after Prince Humperdinck has been defeated, Fezzik shows up with four white horses. Inigo congratulates him on his good work.

Answer: honest

Count Rugen says this to Westley while in the Pit of Despair, just after having tried, 'The Machine' on him. Westley's memorable response is a whimper.

Answer: Westley

Westley, played by Cary Elwes, said this to Buttercup when he really meant 'I love you.'

Answer: Vizzini

When Princess Buttercup is out riding her horse, she runs into Vizzini, Fezzik and Inigo pretending to be lost circus performers. They enquire as to whether there's a village nearby.

Buttercup is played by Robin Wright, Vizzini by Wallace Shawn, Fezzik by André the Giant and Inigo by Mandy Patinkin. André the Giant was a French professional wrestler who was 7ft 4 inches tall!

Answer: Inigo

Vizzini, Fezzik and Inigo have taken Buttercup captive and are sailing towards the Cliffs of Insanity. As they sail, Inigo keeps looking behind them. Vizzini, annoyed, asks him why.

Answer: upsetting her

Prince Humperdinck says this to Count Rugen, in a scene following the fire swamp. He is commenting on Buttercup's obvious distress.

Answer: Vizzini

Vizzini: 'I supppose you think you're brave, don't you?' Buttercup: 'Only compared to some.'

Answer: Fezzik

Fezzik, played by the late Andre the Giant, had an incredible gift for rhyme. This line followed Vizzini's line 'No more rhymes now, I mean it!'

Answer: Vizzini

In this scene, upon hearing that Vizzini intends to kill Buttercup, Fezzik voices his opinions. Vizzini then has a rant at both Fezzik and Inigo. Prince Humperdinck does indeed plan to kill Buttercup, but not until later on in the film.

During the filming, because of his back problems, André the Giant couldn't actually lift anything heavy, so in scenes where it appears he his carrying great loads, they are actually attached to wires!

Yellin is the commander of Prince Humperdinck's troops and is played by Malcolm Storry.

Answer: Fezzik

Fezzik and Inigo hear Westley's scream in the village - the sound of ultimate suffering - and follow it to the grove where the secret entrance to the Pit of Despair is. They find Westley dead, as Fezzik confirms by putting his ear to Westley's chest to listen for a heartbeat. Inigo responds, "It just is not fair." From there, they go to find Miracle Max.

Answer: in liquid

Westley says this to Vizzini when they are engaging in the battle of wits. It immediately follows the line, "I smell nothing."

The role of the grandpa was played by Peter Falk.

Answer: Vizzini

When they have scaled the Cliffs of Insanity, Vizzini and Fezzik leave with Buttercup and leave Inigo behind to defeat the Dread Pirate Roberts, who is slowly climbing them without the rope for assistance. Inigo says that he is going to duel him with his left-hand because if he uses his right hand it will "be over too quickly".

They mention several fencing masters during the duelling scene who were, in fact, all real fencing masters from the 14th - 16th centuries.

Answer: Prince Humperdinck

As Prince Humperdinck and Count Rugen are examining the traces of the cliff-top duel, Count Rugen asks the Prince the question, to which Humperdinck responds, "I always think everything could be a trap - which is why I'm still alive."

Prince Humperdink, played by Chris Sarandon, is extremely talented in the field of hunting and tracking.

Answer: Fezzik

After Westley (still as the Dread Pirate Roberts) defeats Inigo it is Fezzik's turn to try and beat him. Vizzini tells him to finish the pirate "his way" by "picking up one of those rocks, hiding behind that boulder and the minute the man in black's head is in view, hit it with the rock!"

Answer: Valerie

Valerie is upset at her husband, Miracle Max, "I'm not a witch, I'm your wife. But after what you just said, I'm not even sure I want to be that anymore."

Billy Crystal's character replies "You never had it so good." Valerie goes on to try to convince her husband to help, but he doesn't until Inigo says that helping Westley will hurt Humperdinck.

Answer: True

Inigo says "You?", to which Fezzik responds, rhyming as usual, "True!" This is the beginning of Inigo and Fezzik's 'reunion'.
