The last Plantagenet has been found, according to DNA analysis, forensic analysis, and radiocarbon dating.
"You fought with Captain Reynolds in the war?"
"I fought with a lot of people in the war."
"And your husband?"
"I fight with him sometimes, too."

*ahem* Let the representative from New Jersey take the floor...
