"Perhaps *I* might be of assistance"

I'll note that I was already freaked out by the idea of having conjugations/declensions/whatever depend on relative social status and that the only correct way to say "No" when speaking to a social superior is to use some contortion like "It is adequate," and hope the person you're speaking to gets it.

Damn.  Now I need to go rent "Rising Sun" again.
