EXT. OUTSIDE THE BARRACK - DAY
Hervy is standing as he's guarding a barrack, holding a shield and a sword; this barrack, viewed from the outside, is a grey building made of iron and embodies strength, order, and rule and may look like a prison, too.
Not far from the building, we can see some treetops and a grey marble bench.
Anyway, Leo arrives outside the barrack; he is wearing his knight uniform, and a purse made of cloth is hanging on it.
LEO: I have a possible solution to our problem.
HERVY: Finally, you got convinced that I was right!
LEO: It's just... I didn't think it was possible that she could pick us, but then I read the invite and saw that the party is in honor of the people, so maybe Isabel has changed her mentality. Now, she wants to give charity to everyone and choose a broke husband.
HERVY: Yes, I thought that too. Anyway, which is the solution? Have you found someone interested in Isabel?
LEO: No, I haven't. Unfortunately, I can't do miracles. But... (more)
Leo takes out a little glass ampoule from the cloth. The glass ampoule has a fluid that looks like water in it.
LEO (CONT'D): You see this thing? (more)
Leo is holding the ampoule in his own hands, as Hervy has a weirded-out look all over his face.
LEO (CONT'D): This contains the remedy for our problems.
HERVY (Thinking he had an enlightenment): Sir Lancelot's soul! He's going to save us all.
LEO (gives his brother a stink eye): You jerk, this is a love potion.
HERVY: We could give it to Isabel to make her fall in love with somebody...
LEO (he shakes his head in denial): Love potions are just like weapons, and their victims change. This one you see is supposed to be light, and the differences won't be too evident, but Tybalt is not that stupid. He might notice there's something weird, and he would trace it to us. So, I thought... We only have to find out if Isabel likes someone, and then we'll use the potion on him.
HERVY: And how do we know if Lady Isabel likes someone?
LEO: Well... I already know it all.
