    My fav bit is:
    Ben: “so, we meet again!”
    Simon: “you don’t zay zat I zay zat!”
    Ben just has so much sass and angry Simon is hilarious.

    The singular term Geneva Convention refers to the agreements of 1949, negotiated in the aftermath of World War II. The first Geneva Convention was established in 1864 BUT only 12 Nations signed it.. Switzerland, Baden, Belgium, Denmark, France, Hesse, Holland, Italy, Portugal, Prussia, Spain, and Wurtemburg. The German State of WW2 technically never signed it and thus were not legally under its restrictions.
