Isle of the Lost
Mano: Marinette! Is Chloe back too?
Marinette As if. I, um, forgot that you guys don't open till midnight. Place looks good. So what is your deal? Has your grandmother given you any customers yet?
Mano: Ah, just a witch here and there. Mostly, it's a lot of scrubbing and scouring and sweeping. Lots and lots of sweeping.
Marinette: Sounds like the old Cinderella treatment, eh?
Mano: Yeah, she's gone from Wicked Stepmother to Wicked Grandmother.
Marinette: That's not really much of a switch. Hey, Mano, you used to do Chloe, right?
Mano: Yeah. I thought of the ponytail
Marinette: You have any ideas for me?
Mano: Mm. The washed-out blonde with blue tips? The best of no worlds. You can't see where your face ends and your hair begins! Oh, what is this, "Bored to Death Pink"? Hmm. How far can I go?
Marinette: The works? I mean, whatever makes me feel like me, but, you know… way worse.
Mano: Yay!
Marinette: Hey! There I am.
Mano: Voila!
Marinette: Voila.
Mano: For me?
Marinette: Yeah. You earned it.
(Nino comes in)
Nino: Fork it over, you runt. Now the rest of it. Hmm. Thank you. Mm-hmm.
(Mano hands him the money)
Marinette: Still running errands for Alya, or do you actually get to keep what you steal?
Nino: Well, well, well. What a nice surprise.
Marinette: Hi, Nino.
Nino: Just wait until Alya hears you're back. She's never gonna give you back your old territory.
Marinette: Oh, well, that's okay. Because I will be taking it.
Nino: I could hurt you.
Marinette: Not without her permission, I bet.
(Nino knocks over the stuff on the counter thingy)
Mano: Great. More sweeping
