Clarisse :
I've been thinking about it a great deal and
the truth is I think you'd make a very fine
princess. You know, people think princesses
are supposed to wear tiaras, marry the
prince, always look pretty and live happily
ever after but it's so much more than that.
It's a real job.
MIA : You are
an extraordinary person, Grandma. But I
don't think I'm meant to do this. I, I would
be so afraid that I would disappoint the
people of Genovia and I couldn’t bear to
disappoint you again.
Clarisse :
Well, as I said I
have faith in
you.
Man : I'm a
writer.
Joe : Ah!
Man : I write
soaps--soap opera.
Joe : Mm-hmm.
Man : Did you
ever see ''Middle House Road''?
Joe : No. No,
no.
Man : It's a
big hit. I wrote a character just like you
once. He was a spy.
Joe : I'm not
a spy.
Man : That's
what the character said.
MIA : I’ll
see you tonight, then.
Clarisse :
Mm-hmm.
MIA : Hahh!
Clarisse : I
do have one favor to ask. I
need you to formally renounce your title for
the press at the ball, you know?
MIA : You-
make a speech?
Clarisse :
Mm-hmm.
MIA : Oh, wh-
Do you think that maybe- considering my
history with the press it would be better if
you did it?
Clarisse :
Amelia, you wouldn’t stop driving your
Mustang just because a couple of insects hit
the windshield, would you? Besides, look how
far you've come and I’ll be right there with
you.
MIA : Come
on, Fat Louie. Time to pack. Let's get your
things. Louie, what have you got there? Come
on, Louie. We're going on a trip. We're
going to Colorado where we can climb some
real rocks. We
are so out of here, Louie.
''My dearest daughter, today is your
sixteenth birthday. Congratulations. I
present you with this diary to fill the
pages with your special thoughts--special
thoughts of your wonderful life. ''
Phillipe's Voice : “It is a custom in my family to pass
on a piece of wisdom when one reaches this
age. I pass it on to you as my father passed
it on to me. Amelia, courage is not the
absence of fear but rather the judgment that
something else is more important than fear.
The brave may not live forever but the
cautious do not live at all. From now on,
you'll be traveling the road between who you
think you are and who you can be. The key is
to allow yourself to make the journey. I
also want you to know I loved your mother
very much and still think of her often.
Happy birthday, my Mia. All my love, your
father. ''
MIA :
The trip is off,
Louie. |
