~2 days later at Aldovia airport~
Paparazzi: when's the prince supposed to arrive?
Paparazzi: an hour ago. Maybe he missed his flight...
Paparazzi: probably shacked up with some countess somewhere.
(The paparazzi wave the taxi for Dixie and someone else hops in)
Dixie: excuse me.
Random: I'm sorry, I really have to go.
Dixie: no, but this my cab.
Random: I apologise!
Dixie: you can't just do that!
(The person shuts the door)
Dixie: SELFISH JERK!
(The cab pulls away)
Paparazzi: that man just took her cab!
Dixie: seriously, can you believe that guy?
Paparazzi: who does he think he is?
~~~~
Press guy: first time?
Dixie: Hm?
Press guy: First time covering the royals?
Dixie: first time covering anything! Any words of wisdom?
Press guy: pick a new career!
Dixie: okay...
(All the cabs and Vans Start pulling up to the palace)
Dixie: Wow!
(All the paparazzi/press/reporters get out their cars and vans and go inside to the press room)
Reporter: Come on! What's taking so long?
Paparazzi: yeah!
Blake: Ladies and Gentlemen thank you so much for coming today! I realise you've traveled a great distance to be here, but I'm sorry to announce we're going to have to cancel the press conference...Prince Noah is...unavailable at this time.
(Everyone groans and sighs)
Paparazzi: (stands up) more like he is avoiding the press!
Everyone: Yeah!
Reporter: does this mean that the prince is abdicating the throne?
Blake: I can assure you, his coronation is very much on schedule, and will take place at the annual Christmas Eve ball.
Paparazzi: then where is he?
Everyone: yeah!
Blake: uh, the polite young lady with the head band.
Dixie: (stands up) when are you rescheduling the press conference?
Everyone: yeah?
Blake: we, uh, don't have any plans for that at this time.
(Everyone groans)
Dixie: is it possible to arrange an interview with Prince Noah?
(Everyone chuckles)
Blake: there will be no interviews with the prince. Thank you so much for coming!
Reporter: King Tim would never have done This! Come on!
(Everyone leaves the press conference and are all leaving the palace grounds)
Reporter: talk about a real jerk-around!
