*While they are walking to where their date is*

Benjamin: Tell me something about yourself that you've never told anyone

Magnolia: Um... my middle name is Pixie

Benjamin: *While letting out a chuckle* Magnolia Pixie. Mine's Florian

Benjamin: Me, too. That- we have so much in common already

Benjamin: Let's go for a swim

Magnolia: Hm? What? Uh... right now?

Magnolia: I think I'm just gonna stay here

Benjamin: No, no, no. Come on

Magnolia: I think I'm just gonna stay here and try some different fruits

Benjamin: Okay

Magnolia: Are those little crowns on your shorts?

Benjamin: Maybe

*As he is swimming Magnolia starts singing*
