| Just Another Day in the Life of the Prince |
| The Royal Party arrives at the Opera House for the ballet; the prince's girlfriend already 'out of place'. |
| She proceeds to embarrass and humiliate all around her with behaviour more appropriate to a soccer match: snacking on munchies and having the temerity to offer some to the Queen; then cheering wildly and obnoxiously at the most inappropriate parts of the performance. |
| Her poor manners result in her belongings jettisoning themselves onto the the stage and the dancers below thus bringing her to her final coupe de gras - a blazing exit across the stage during the most dramatic point of the ballet. The Royal Party is left front and center of this debacle. |
| Back at the palace, the prince finds little peace in drink, whilst his mother measures him up yet again. |
| If ever he needed compassion and love it is this moment. He is desperate for her to be there for him; to love him. He begs and pleads, cries his soul out for her to love him and help him. |
| But his desperation is frightening and abhorrent to her; his need for love a repulsive weakness. She pushes him way as she always has, and coldly, she reminds him who he is and what is expected of him. |
