Act 2, Scene 5. The bedchambers of Corinne. Enter Sir James.
Corinne: Mine mother hast given me guidance on what to do with a man, and what not to do.
Sir James: Alack,'tis not mine purpose.
Corinne: O, then what ist thine purpose Sir James?
Sir James: I do seek information...
Over to you, but Sir James has to end up with a clue that leads him to Venice.
Act 2, Scene 5. The bedchambers of Corinne. Enter Sir James.
Corinne: Mine mother hast given me guidance on what to do with a man, and what not to do.
Sir James: Alack,'tis not mine purpose.
Corinne: O, then what ist thine purpose Sir James?
Sir James: I do seek information... What else occurs here at Schloss Drax-ula ?
Corinne:" We have Zumba classes, needlepoint, a book club and every sunday
a cake sale "
Sir James:" I was thinking more of the Raker of moons quest, anything similar "
Corinne:" Nothing I can think off, Sir Hugo always goes on about how he hates
England, the queen, how English knights are all soooooo stupid to ever discover
his secret in Venice, that beith all ! "
sir James:" so nothing unusual then "
Corinne:" Sorry, No...... He has a safe in his office, it's very secret full of his plans
he mentioned once that it had plans of something secret in Venice "
Sir James:" odd that everthing seems so normal"
Corinne:" Aye, Sir James, everthing is so boring, even the training of the crews, in
Battle techniques, assassination methods, overthrow of governments, all just normal
everyday stuff"
Sir James:" Don't worry about it, it was a long shot that anything unusual might be happening "
Corinne:" Sorry Sir James, Sir Hugo is just a typical slightly unhinged megalomaniac, looking
for revenge on thine world, .... nothing strange. ........ except perhaps... he has a book on
a town in the north of England called Manchester, maybe that's important ?"
Sir James:" Forsooth!, it's known as the Venice of the north, so perhaps Venice should be the
place to start ! .....Now on that guidance of your mother ?"
corinne:" She said if I got the urge, I should suck a fisherman's friend, .... so I joined an
angling club !"
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
Well, that's us just about finished with the first part- well done there!
We could now start in Venice, or do the scene where Drax makes James shoot a pheasant (not) then feeds Corinne to his dogs.... if we want to do that then it's easy to slip in a line earlier about the dogs.
Sir Hugo:" Goodmorrow,Sir James, may I introduce before they take their leave
la signora formatori verdi and alla Cone tess asp nove millimetri"
( the ladies depart the field .... Bickering! )
Sir Hugo:" I have organised this tournament to find the best Archer in the land
How good are you as a bowman Bond ?"
Sir James:" I only stopped to thank you for your hospitality"
Sir hugo:" Are you a scaredy pants, or ..... French !"
Sir James:" Doubtith That I am in thy class "
Sir Hugo:" Takith my bow, and try yon target "
Sir James:" I see your arrow is dead centre, a perfect score"
Sir Hugo:" unbeatable, dear fellow "
Sir James:" It looks terribly difficult"
(sir James draws back his bow and lets fly as Corrine arrives with
two guard Chihuahuas, still looking at Sir Hugo Bond's arrow, splits
Sir Hugo's arrow in twain )
Sir James:" No it isin't "
Sir Hugo aside:" Flash Git !"
sir James leaves.....
Sir Hugo:" Chang? Or is it Charr? heard how you did speak with Sir James, last
evening. You are dismissed, lets see if thine legs can out run my trained puppies"
Corrine runs but is soon covered in excited yapping Chihuahua puppies, soon she
expires from their insane cuteness.
Sir Hugo exists stage left.....
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
Act 3, Scene 1. Venice. Sir James arrives at St Mark’s Square in a gondola.
Sir James: I bid thee, tarry here, Franco.
Franco: Oui monsieur James, I'll just sell some cornettos, till thy return.
" Just one cornetto, give it to me delicious ice-cream of Italy .... #"
( A french guy playing an Italian character, revenge for Rene Mathis )
(Sir James doth walk to a shoppe, with a sign “Drax Venini Glass: Ye Perfectly Ordinary Glass Shoppe, Nothing Unusual Here”, and enters.)
Exotic Maiden: Can i do something TO you,..... Pardon FOR you, good sir?
Sir James: Oh, in many ways I am sure, but methinks I should like to look around.
Exotic Maiden: I prithee feel free, good sir, for all is in order in this shoppe, ye won’t find anything suspicious, no sirree. Although please regard this scroll, and prithee do not explore Here,( Secret
apothecary Lab), Here ( Henchman's Hangout Union members only ) or definitely not this chamber.
Sir James: why not that chamber ?
Exotic maiden: tis the ladies privy !
(Sir James doth look at some glass vials, before spying Apothecary Goodhead also looking around. He follows her outside. Only to see an American explorer and his female companion emerge from
a sewer cover and run off.)
Sir James: Apothecary Goodhead, what a surprise to find thee here!
Gala: ‘Tis an amazing coincidence, Sir James.
Sir James: Thou shalt dine with me forthwith. My hostlery doth a fine soup in a basket.
Gala: Alack, nay, for I must lecture tonight.
(Exit Gala. Sir James calls for Franco, pushes past a group of
tourists buying ice-cream and they set off in the gondola.)
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
Please never worry about making any changes, we all want it to be funny
so if it works fine, if not then we can all try and change it to something better {[]
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
A purse which turns in to a Bear Trap, a lady's muff which can be expanded
to make a furry jousting pole . A sword with a walking stick hidden in it.
A ruff than changes to a spare wheel for a carriage. A selection of wigs
containing various homing pigeons, a parchment called " spying for girls"
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
Loving this one! {[]
Maybe in the above scene, we can work in Darx's business making him a... Merchant of Venice?
Mayhap Gala would'st then mistake Sir James for Shylock instead of Sherlock
I will have a go tonight if I get a moment
"Drax C&D Inconspicuous... " ) ) -{
Glad you spotted that! It was a small step from "C&W" to "C&D".
If you don't mind, I'll slip in the Merchant/Shylock reference right now (again, well spotted, I missed that opportunity- which shows the benefits of teamwork) and if you get a moment perhaps you could look at Sir James meeting Gala then being attacked by Jaws, who is rescued by Dolly- I can't think how to do that without the cable cars...

Then the kidnapping attempt in a medical carriage ?
And perhaps Jaws falls through the recently repaired big top, causing the ringmaster to exclaim "Nay, not again"?
Confused for years !
We have GOT to have a braces joke!
What's wrong with you, Barbel? :v
Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!
And Higgins, just cos you missed the two references* don't make out they're not there! After all, you only noticed 3 out of the 5 in LTK!
