Lynn: Incoming

Markl: YES!

Sophie: Who's it for?

Lynn opens letter, reads to herself silently and lets out an annoyed huff

Lynn: It's not even for one of us!!!

Chihiro: What?  Are you sure?

Lynn: Listen I may not have left the bathhouse.....ever, but I do know how to read!

Haku takes the letter gently and glances at it.

Haku: If course, it's for Yubaba.

Chihiro: WHAT!!!!!?

All of the sudden there's a puff of smoke and there stands the witch of the bathhouse herself.

Yubaba: You rang ( she says with a cackle)

Chihiro, Haku and Lynn all rub their temples annoyed.

Yubaba: Well, lets just see what this little letter says shall we?  Clearly a very intelligent person sent it if they asked about me so we shouldn't keep them waiting.

Princess Mononoke: Ok who is this bitch?

Lynn, Haku and Chihiro all look at her making a "cut it out" motion.  Mononoke just sighs.

Yubaba: As I was saying, "Who is Bohs father, who is your husband."  Well, I don't see how that is anyone's business.

Mononoke: Oh come on lady we've all had to answer questions we didn't want to!  Out with it!

Hashitaka: You see hun this is why a lot of people want to kill you.  Shhhhh

Mononoke punches him in the shoulder, hard.

Yubaba: Fine, well you see I always knew from a young age that I wanted to be wealthy, so I took it upon myself to find the riches man I could, and I succeeded, his name is of little importants but his fortune, now that I could get behind.  Even when I was young I was still a very powerful witch so I did what any woman would do and I hypnotized him into marrying me.  We were together for 2 agonizing years until one day he somehow broke the spell on him and was going to run to tell the authorities.  Well, I couldn't let that happen, so I banished him to an island that no one knows except me and I keep him locked away there.  The only good thing besides the money that came out of that marriage was my beautiful boy.

The room is dead silent.

Lynn: Well, that's the answer to a question I really never wanted to ask.
