Empress of Everything

I’ll have una bella tazza di caffe. That’s Italian for a beautiful cup of coffee. (( looks smug ))


((Meryl lifts an eyebrow and smiles sweetly at the EE))

** Sediamoci a tavola while Monroe prepares our belle tazze? **

THE PHANTOM OF THE FILM:

((A burst of strange, exotic pipe organ music blares wildly as a masked man steps out from behind the columns))

**Pardon moi, Mademoiselles. I could not help but notice the quaint little afternoon coffee break. I am certain I can afford my presence to such an occassion. I hope you do not mind, but I have sto-, ah, procured some fine delicacies from Monroe's secret stash and can now offer the best of the best. Surely, you all would be willing to dine in style with me, and we could share the most delicious gossip from throughout the set. I must apologize for my fishy odor, it is not fresh caviar or baby squid or any other surprise of the sea, but one which I am currently unable to avoid.**

((The Phantom pulls out another chair and sits at the little bistro table, holding forth a Biker's Basket overflowing with scrumptuous goodies.))

**Now, where's the Espresso? - Oh yes, Milady High Priestess, I think I may have discovered a mutual friend of ours, for some reason left to rot in the bowels of the pit between the Sacred Relic Room and the Properties Storage Facility. He is quite famished, and I have offered what restitution I can, but be assured I am certain he is still hungry. He has not eaten in several days.**

GUY RAPHAELSON:

((Guy is scruffy looking, shabby in more than a few edges, his hair out of place and a wild glint in his eyes.))

**Ha! Hello, your Holy Highness, and the Empress of Everything. How alliterative. I-I-I only hope.... well I'm not certain what I hope, not anymore.**

((Guy's wildness is overcome by sudden and ubrupt vulnerability. He almost crumples to the ground but the Phantom steps forward with ease and catches him in his arms. Guy grabs hold of a bistro chair and pulls himself up.))

**I'm sorry, dear ladies. I haven't used my limbs for some time. If the Phantom hadn't found me when he did... I don't know what would have happened to me.**

MONROE:



What happened to that romantic tete-a-tete coffee break I was looking forward to?   >:(

** Now here instead I've got a veritable 3-ring circus going: A formidable clash of the ultra-mega-divas, all barbed sugary remarks and arched eyebrows. A mysterious masked phantom complete with blaring pipe organ music in tow, and some scruffy-looking poor wild man, crumpling on the floor. **

((Sighs, exasperated))

%% And all of them wanting me to serve them tasty treats, coffee......... I'd normally be delighted to do so......but not just now!!! Alma can be here any minute! %%


((Realization dawning))

%% Nothing here will help me woo Alma, that's for sure. I'm on my own. %%


((Decisive))

Well all right! See if I don't make it anyhow! I'll just...... I'll ask her out, that's what!


((Distracted despite himself:))

** Butt Butter?!? What's that about? **

THE PHANTOM OF THE FILM:

** Nonsense, we've no interest in disturbing your tete-a-tete. I have taken the liberty of providing a more private ensemble for us. We will leave this lovely porch bistro to you and your paramour, as I have had the common courtesy of reserving our seats..** ((dramatic organ music plays)) **..within.**
