James: Hey! Wait up!
Peggy: What are you doing here?
Elina: Yeh, just tell your father already will you (rolls her eyes)
Eliza: Who is this?
Peggy: The most annoying human being to ever exist, Prince James
James: You see, I'm your brother! (talking to Eliza)
Peggy, Eliza and Elina: What the hell?!?!
James: See, I overheard my father talking about his long lost daughter and when I saw you, I just knew! You look just like your mother
Eliza: This is crazy! Since when am I a princess? I've always been told I'm just a dirty worthless orphan. Wait till Lady Prescott hears! But with that being said, she probably already knows, and that's why she framed me to be executed
James: Just please let me help you. I don't want my sister dead anymore than you do
Elina: I don't think we can trust a royal
James: Both of you (points at Eliza and Elina) are royals. It's just you that isn't (to Peggy)
(everyone glares at him)
James: Hey, we were all thinking that!
Elina: Actually, we weren't
James: Just puhlease let me help you guys, i'm begging you
Peggy: I STILL don't trust you, and yes even though I'm a maid, my opinion MATTERS
James: Well, you're going to have to trust me, I know you've got the girl (looks at Eliza)
(Elina huffs)
Eliza: Hey maybe he's not that bad. ANd he's right, we practically HAVE to trust him now
(everyone walks across the stage, even James)
Elina(quietly to Eliza): Not that bad? I think you need your head checked
James: Hey, I heard that
