???: You got them?

Vanessa: Yeah, I do.

*Vanessa places two steel balls on the table*

Vanessa: So?

???: What?

Vanessa: Are you gonna join me?

???: Oh, right! Sorry, I forgot.

Vanessa: Right... so, what's your name?

Natalia: My name is Natalia, but you can call me Nat.

Vanessa: Thanks for helping me, Nat.

Natalia: No, thank you.

*Someone knocks on the door*

Natalia: Who is it?

Prince Felix: It's Felix.

Natalia: I bet it's that damn King Felix... we should get rid of him.

Vanessa: How are we gonna do that?

Natalia: You open the door and I'll throw my balls at him.

Vanessa: Pause.

Natalia: Resume. The steel balls you dumbass.

Vanessa: Oh... I knew that.

Natalia: What balls would I have? I'm not one of those men.

Prince Felix: Hello?

Natalia: I'm coming. Open the door.

*Vanessa swings open the door and then ducks*

Vanessa: Now!

*Natalia throws her steel balls at Prince Felix's face and sends him flying*

Natalia: No!

Vanessa: What's wrong?

Natalia: It wasn't King Felix.

Vanessa: Then who the hell was that?

Natalia: You don't know? That's Prince Felix!

Vanessa: I still don't know who that is!

Natalia: Stop yelling at me!

Vanessa: You just killed someone!

Natalia: Okay, and? You're guilty by association!

Vanessa: You're a fucking dumbass.

*Natalia runs over to Prince Felix*

Natalia: Prince Felix, I'm so sorry, I thought you were King Felix.

*Prince Felix coughs*

Prince Felix: King... Felix is dead...

Natalia: What! What the hell happened?

Prince Felix: Ambush...

*Prince Felix bleeds out*

*Vanessa comes over*

Vanessa: Is he dead?

Natalia: Yeah... I think.

*Natalia reaches into Prince Felix's pocket and takes his keys and money*

Vanessa: What the-

Natalia: This is probably the dumbest reason ever but let's go find who killed King Felix and made me mistake the two.

Vanessa: That is pretty stupid.

Natalia: Your reason is no better.

Vanessa: Whatever.
