[ACTION]

[Young (5-9) Sonia Nevermind is standing obediently outside of the school, as if awaiting someone. Occasionally she rocks back and forth on her heels - and by the way, she is dressed incredibly elaborately. Like almost Disney princess ball-gown elaborate. She tilts her head, wondering what's taking so long. Dare you ask what she's waiting on?]

[VOICE]

[Sonia's mastered the phone at that age anyway, so she calmly states the following message.]

Is this the police? I would like to report my own kidnapping. I cannot name the assistants or give you a proper description , but it is of utmost importance that I be returned to my father and mother immediately. I await your correspondence.

[princesspool]

Oh, don't you worry. When we find the real kidnapper, I'm going to send him to jail for a million years. And another million for kidnapping you.

[tsunball]

Wow, a million?! [ His brain can't even comprehend just how big exactly that number is. Just that it's a whole lot. ]

I didn't know people had to stay in jail for that long!

[princesspool]

Bad people should be in jail forever and ever!

[tsunball]

Well.. I guess that's right. If they do something really bad, I mean.

.. Stealing from the cookie jar isn't that bad, right? [ He doesn't want to go to jail since he did that at his parents' house, save him, Sonia.. ]

[princesspool]

... You eat cookies from a jar?!

[tsunball]

Uh.. yeah. [ A little hesitant. Did he say something wrong..? ]

Why, don't you eat cookies from a jar?

[princesspool]

I have my cookies baked by my pastry chef and sent straight to me. Why would you have them any other way?

[tsunball]

[ Another little hesitant pause. He wonders if he shouldn't just make up some lie and say that he totally does that too except he sends them in a jar! Or.. something like that..

.. But on the other hand, that explanation sounds pretty lame. Maybe she'll find out he's lying and dislike him, so.. ]

Well, mom usually buys them in the store. And if you don't keep them in there, they'll go bad.. that's what she said. [ He's almost sulking a little. You're going to seem so uncool, Leon! ]
