[PHILIPPA] Alexander. [ALEXANDER sighs] What?

[ALEXANDER] I said I'd be right back— [PHILIPPA] You’ve been here for over thirty minutes. Don’t you think it’s embarrassing for me to be out there alone?

[ALEXANDER] No. Why would I? I’m not your boyfriend. [PHILIPPA] I never want you to be either. Sadly, you are my date for the night and we haven’t even danced. My mother already scolded me about it.

[ALEXANDER] Not my problem. [PHILIPPA] Will you ever stop being so self-centered? [ALEXANDER] Will you ever stop being incredibly annoying?

[PHILIPPA] You just hate being told you’re wrong— Will you stop blowing smoke on my face? [ALEXANDER] Or what— Hey!

[ALEXANDER] Why did you do that? That was my last one. [PHILIPPA] Oh no~ I feel terrible. Do you want me to get more for you?

[PHILIPPA] Do whatever you want after this ball, Alexander, but don’t make me look bad in front of people who look up to me.

[EMILIA] Philippa? [PHILIPPA] Hey, Emilia. [EMILIA] Are you okay? Did something happen? [PHILIPPA] No, no— I’m alright. Just taking a break from all the dancing. My head was starting to spin. [PHILIPPA] I don’t think I’ve seen you dance all night, though. [EMILIA] I’m not much for dancing these days. [PHILIPPA] ...My mom would understand if you left early. [EMILIA] Don’t worry about me. Where’s your date? [PHILIPPA] You mean the worst date I’ve ever had? I haven’t seen him in a while. [EMILIA] My mom was looking for him and she couldn’t find him either. [PHILIPPA] Have you seen Maud? [EMILIA] No... Why? [PHILIPPA] You know how they are. [EMILIA] No way, right? They wouldn't leave mid-ball—

[ALEXANDER] Can you walk any slower? My guards can catch up to you like that! [MAUD] Shut up. I had to change clothes while all you did was take off your jacket. [ALEXANDER] Whatever, just hurry up. [MAUD] Why are you in such a hurry? Did my sister do something? [ALEXANDER] What? No, I don’t care about her. [MAUD] Aww, she did do something. [MAUD] You two were taking a long time in the balcony... Is the old flame coming back— [ALEXANDER] Is your boy-toy of the month coming or not? [MAUD] Let’s just go. [ALEXANDER] That’s what I thought.
