"Give me a rest, Mal."


Ben asks his wife. He's too tired to shout, but he won't give up defending his point of view.


"When are you going to see that this baby is a danger?"


Mal warns him again.


" You both stopped!" Rashid intervenes in what looks like a fight between two children: "If you want to be stable, stop fighting now." The two keep quiet, but their faces remain closed. "No stress for now, okay? I have to see something, try to stay calm."

"I want to see Mal."


Nanny speaks calmly to her sister.


" What?"


Helena laughs, doubting her own logical reasoning.


"I'm going to Auradon, Helena."


Nanny speaks slowly to see if the Fairy Godmother understands.


"I heard you the first time. I just don't understand."


She rolls her eyes at her sister's debauched tone and turns away from her again.


"How hard is it to understand?"


She doesn't need to read her thoughts to know that her anger and despair are gradually coming to the surface.


"You haven't appeared in public for years, Nanny."


She explains the first point that rebuts Nanny's desire. She doesn't understand why she suddenly wants to go to Auradon.


"There's always a first time."


She really isn't the same fairy she was a few months ago. She's convinced of what she wants and won't give up on it.


"I don't think you should go, sister."


"I'm not asking your permission." Nanny smiles at the implication that she is asking permission. "I've been wanting to see my granddaughter ever since she arrived in Auradon, but you know how I've been for the last few years."


"And you think now is the best moment?"


The Fairy Godmother recognizes her sister's stubbornness but expects her common sense to help her understand the reality they're in.


"I can't see a better time."


"You're the most stubborn person I know, Nanny." For a moment, She does think what the two of them are going to do. "All right, wait two days. Ben and she are going to announce the arrival of the heir, and the kingdom is going to be a mess, and you don't want everyone to know that The One of Legends is alive, right?
