Aoi is already on stage, she’s waiting for Allan…

When he finally shows up:
Aoi: Nice scene, very real if you ask me.
Allan: Why, we just stuck to the script there.

Aoi: Yeah, right… Anyway, we need to talk.
Allan: Really, about what?
Aoi: You, trying to match me with Fabian.
Allan: Huh? Where did you get that idea?

Director Sherrill: Ok, guys, enough talk. I don’t want to see you, but Richard the Beautiful and Regina the Fiery, so take your breaths and get into character now. 

Allan and Aoi obey their director, and take deep, deep breaths.
Director Sherrill: And… ACTION!

Allan: Cheers, my beloved queen!
Aoi: Sorry, my king, but I’m not exactly cheerful at the moment.
Allan: Why not? I won a duel for my honor, that’s something to be cheerful about.
Aoi: A cheerfulness overshadowed by your unfaithfulness, milord.

Allan: My unfaithfulness? Rather, I would say yours, my queen. There are rumors that my squire has been to your chambers, I nearly killed him for that.
Aoi: W-Why, you did not?

Allan: Of course I did not kill Edward, I am a merciful king!
Aoi: (Visibly disappointed) Oh, I see… Still, none of what you heard is true, they are just rumors.
Allan: Are they? Well, what they say about me and Ed were rumors too. So let’s forget about them and celebrate.

Allan: Like I said earlier, cheers!
Aoi: Alright, I hope you enjoy your wine, it’s a very special crop I got only for you, my dear Richard.

Allan: Thank you, Regina, your kindness makes me want to be a better man. I’ll never fail you again.
Aoi: (Suspiciously confident) I know you won’t, darling.

(Both Richard and Regine drink cheerfully).
Allan: (To his real self) Yuck, this is just plain water, I wish it was actual wine.
Director Sherrill: Alright, drink a little more… AAAND CUT!

Director Sherrill: Beautifully done, guys. It stays. Al, try not to lose your concentration again, honey.
Aoi: Yeah, try not to think about real alcohol while you’re acting, ‘honey’.

Allan: Well, I’d concentrate better if they put real scotch in those prop glasses, just saying.
Director: Not a chance, darling! Now you two take a little break and prepare for your next scene.
