"Look at me. Look at your father, A r i a, why are you hiding?"
{My father's a bad, bad man. He hurts people, he - he - h-}
M o m, don't just sit there, help me!
Hush, hush, baby, if Father hears you, you know what he'll do, quiet now. Hush, hush.
{He whispers tales of happiness and perfection and sanity, but what is that?}
"Just pretend, A r i a. Just play pretend for our audience. Do you hear them clapping?"
Jester, Jester, w he r e a re you? Make them go away!
S top crying !
Air, air, I need air! I don't like the ocean anymore.
"Dry your tears, A r i a, you'll ruin your makeup."
"Oh, sweetheart, can't you see?
With him,
we'll be a perfect family."
