Enter Malvolio and Maria
Maria: You swine! You asshead! You devil incarnate! What grievance ist so deep?
Malvolio: I was wronged. Was I wrong to cause the same harm to those who caused me harm?
Maria: Yes! Death carries further weight than humiliation ever could! We meant no more than amusement. You have destroyed the full pantheon of thine acquaintances.
Malvolio: Nay. Two remain. Two who were integral parts of my disfigurement.

Malvolio draws sword
Malvolio: With what art thou armed, wench?
Maria: Righteous fury, the same as you ever were.
Malvolio sheaths sword
Malvolio: You speak truth. Know only that same fury will be thy gallows.
Malvolio loops rope around Maria's neck
Maria: If thy senses art so far gone, thou might hope only for destruction at thine own hand, else Satan naught relinquish hold in death.
Malvolio strangles Maria
Exeunt
