Sarina: I’m afraid I was otherwise engaged. I was able to coax Hugh out of his abstraction for a short while and we repaired to a small, out-of-the-way room to …
You know, I have wondered, on occasion, which customs and traditions that we take for granted would be most valued generations from now? Perhaps we should discuss this.
Parthenope: I had thought, when I wore this rented sword, that I would be the only armed woman in the room. As it seems, every woman in the place is carrying steel.
Carlotta: This dance is quite exhausting! But Riccardo is so accomplished at it. At least I am feeling more energized now. The crowd is so colourful and so stimulating!
vvb’s side note: OMG! it’s Sayid from LOST – i absolutely love that show and didn’t realize he was in Bride and Prejudice until now! OMG! i’m going to have to rewatch it ;-D
My favorite! Sorry, Carlotta, can’t skip this one!
Carlotta: Enjoy! Riccardo is coming back I see. I am so nervous!
Lucia: Oh Bianca! (shouting). Kareem excels! I love this!

Mars: Venus, hold my spear. I must join the other men in this!!

Lucia: Carlotta! (shouting) So good to see you!
Carlotta: *Beams a radiant smile at Lucia*.
Sarina: Venus. I have been longing to catch up with you to share a short coze. Are you enjoying yourself? Mars — my dear, too divine.
Venus (shouts): I will NOT stand like a wallflower for this! … this is like a mating dance we used to do. (throws Mars’ spear aside and joins in).
Venus shouts back: I’m sorry dear Sarina! Lovely to see you tooooo. I must join the other girls.

in that case, don’t miss Mira Nair’s Khamasutra either… Naveen Andrews is there too – yummy as ever (from the late 90s) with Indira Varma! 😉
Lady Vee catches her breath and laughs aloud after Lord Vee gives her a final twirl.
