Joe: Now tell me, what kind of dancing do you do?

　　MIA: Dancing? Just the normal kind. You know, like…

　　Joe: I see. We have a Genovian alternative. Now, the dances here are very sedate right from the hips. In place. No bobbing of the head, please. It’s not a doggy on a dashboard. Straight up. Let’s practice this here. Now, this dance is between a waltz and a tango, you see?

　　MIA: It’s a wango?

　　Joe: no. all right, here we go. Spin out and spin into me. Um…try again. One more spin. Very quickly, now pull away. That’s it. Good. Good attitude. Spin in. good.

　　MIA: I did it? Grandma, I spun without hurting anyone!

　　Clarisse: That’s very good news. Better. It’s coming along. Now you may go home. Thank you, Joseph.

　　Joe: You’re been wearing black too long.

　　Lilly: Mia! Are you ready?

　　MIA: On, hey. I’m really sorry but I can’t do it today. I’ve got a Grandma thing. And I‘ll call you. Bye.

　　Lilly: What? Has your grandma turned into the big bad wolf? Cute, Jeremiah, but a way to a girl’s heart is not by treating her like a vending machine.

　　Clarisse: You’re late.

　　MIA: I know. I am really sorry about it.

　　Clarisse: And where is Paolo?

　　Charlotte: Send in Paolo

　　Clarisse: Ah! Always prompt. Good afternoon. We’re so pleased you could make yourself available to be here.

　　PAOLO: Your Majesty.

　　Clarisse: We won’t waste time. Let the work begin.

　　PAOLO: Ah, of course. Where is the beautiful girl?

　　Clarisse: My granddaughter Amelia.

　　PAOLO: She is gorgeous. Let us take a closer look.

　　Clarisse: Paolo, we have a limited number of days before the state dinner.

　　PAOLO: Fizzy, busy, and dizzy. In the best sense.

　　Clarisse: Oh, I would like it if your ladies would also sign our confidentiality agreement.

　　PAOLO: Majesty, they know what is a secret, eh?

　　Charlotte: Excuse me, Your Majesty. The Genovian press secretary’s waiting for your call.

　　Clarisse: Oh, of course. Well, I’m afraid I’m going to have to leave and come back and be surprised. Charlotte, watch him like a hawk.

　　PAOLO: so we begin, princess? In Paolo’s hands, remember: you will be beautiful. You have thick hair. Like a wolf. Do you wear contact lenses?

　　MIA: well I have them, but I don’t really like to wear them that much.

　　PAOLO: now you do.

　　MIA: you broke my glasses!

　　PAOLO: you broke my brush. I love your eyebrows. We’ll call them “frida” and “kahlo”. If Brooke Shields married Groucho Marx that child would have your eyebrows. Do you want to know a big secret?

　　Woman: tell me.

　　Paolo: the cucumber does nothing. This is something we make up. Majesty, Paolo is exhausted because, Majesty, only Paolo can take this and this… and gives you a princess.

　　Clarisse: better. Much better. Why don’t we go and have a wonderful cup of tea? Come, Mia![page]分页标题[/page]

　　Michael: Lily, the car’s here!

　　Lilly: I’m coming!

　　Michael: thanks for the ride. Thank you.

　　Lilly: Michael, don’t always think you can get a ride with us. Who destroyed you?
