* Sebastian: We're here! Feast your eyes on your new workplace.
* Angela: It's beautiful!
* **Priya and her mother Rani** visit the store.
* Sebastian: Angela, this is Priya and her mother, Rani. You'll be designing Priya's wedding dress.
* Angela: Hi there! I'm Angela, Angela Napoli.
* Rani: This is the third store we've been to this week. I hope you're better than the rest of those amateurs.
* Angela goes into the thoughts.
* **Devil: Wow, who's this little ray of sunshine? Show her who's boss, Angela!**
* **Angel: And squander Sebastian's goodwill? Let's just behave - how ban can she be?**
* Angela: Don't worry miss, I'll--
* Rani: Miss? Where are your manners, little lady? You will refer to me as ma'am, or so help me!

* Angela: Er... I've only just got started.
* Rani: Just got started! You know, back in my day, people didn't waste precious time.
* Angela: Actually, it'd be faster if Priya could wear the dress while I work on it.
* Rani: And exhaust my poor daughter like that? The nerve!
* Rani: You just need to work a little harder, don't you think?
* Angela goes into her thoughts again.
* **Devil: Who does she think she is?**
* **Angel: I have to admit, she's a little... pushy.**
* **Devil: We're the professional here! We should boot her out of the store so we can do our--**

* Rani: Ah, you've brought in some help! Good.
* Jenny: Er... Who's this, Angela?
* Rani: I have just had the most brilliant idea...
* Rani: Let HER wear the dress instead of putting it on that mannequin.
* Priya: Mother, wouldn't it make more sense to--
* Rani: I don't want to exhaust you, my dear. Angela wanted SOMEONE to wear the dress, so why not her?
* Jenny: Wait, what? Why? Our body types are completely different!
* Jenny and Angela walk aside from Rani and Priya.
* Angela: Jenny, please? We'll be finished in no time, and it'll keep her mom quiet for a while.

* Rani: The groom, of course.
* Rani: Where is he, anyway? I haven't seen him in a while.
* Priya: I, er... He's... at work!

* Priya: Er... Excuse me. Is Miss Napoli here?
* Jenny: Angela's in the back.
* Priya: Oh...
* Priya: I'm sorry, but... aren't you...?
* Jenny: Jenny Garcia. Nice to meet you.
* Priya: I knew it! You're the reporter from New York News! I follow you on *InstantSnap*!
* Jenny: Aw, it's nothing. I just read off a teleprompter. Not a big deal.
* Jenny: So, are you excited for your wedding? What about your fiancé, is he cute?
* Priya: I... Er...
* Jenny: What's wrong? Is it something I said?
* Priya: Miss Garcia, I... I need your help!
* Priya: My fiancé, Kalyan... He went missing a few days ago! I need to find him before mother finds out.
* Jenny: Missing?! You mean he bailed?
* Priya: I don't know... Please, you have to help me!

* Priya: Well... We didn't really want to get married in the first place.
* Priya: We wanted to move in together, but... Mother thinks that if you live together, you have to be married.
* Priya: So Kalyan asked me to marry him, but... I could feel his heart wasn't into it.
* Jenny: So he ran off, huh. And I'm guessing you don't want your mom to find out.

* Jenny: I'll ask Angela for advice. She always has good ideas!
* Jenny: Well, most of the time...

## Level 24 - Authority Issues

* Jenny: Angela, can I ask you--
* Angela: Hold still.
* Jenny: Angela, can I--
* Angela: Stand up straight.
* Angela: Jenny, I really need to impress Sebastian this time. Please, just let me concentrate.
* Jenny: Angela, there's something about Priya that--
* Angela: Ugh, that reminds me. Priya's mom - she's so bossy, right? I'd go crazy if I had a mom like that.
* Jenny lowers her arms to her hips.
* Angela: Keep your arms up!

* Angela goes to the back to get sketches.
* Priya: So... Did you talk with Miss Napoli?
* Jenny: I, er... I have a different plan.
* Jenny: You know, I didn't think Kalyan's calling the whole thing off. Maybe he just needs some time to think!
* Jenny: All we need to do is convince your mother that Kalyan's still around, until he comes back on his own.
* Priya: Maybe you're right...
* Jenny: I'm sure he'll show up eventually!
* Jenny: ...Right?

## Level 25 - Fraudulent Imitation

* *Angela: Uh-huh. Listen Jenny, remember what I told you?*
* *Angela: Everything needs to go right this time so I can make a good impression.*

* Jenny sits on the bench.

* Angela: It didn't actually fit. Priya's mom wanted me to use one of my friends, Jenny, as a model.
* Angela: I should've just told her no... I knew it would ness up the dress, and I ended up getting in a fight with Jenny about it...
* Sebastian: Sounds like you've got some apologizing to do.

* Angela: I assure you, ma'am, I know how to do my job.
* Rani: Really? Because after you screwed up both my daughter's dress AND her wedding, I'm not so sure!
* Rani: It wouldn't surprise me if you had something to do with Kalyan getting cold feet...
* Angela: Why you...!
* Jenny runs into the store to stop the fight.
* Jenny: Stop it! That's not true!
* Jenny: It was me. I wrote Kalyan's letter. None of it was true.
* Priya: But she only did that because I asked her! The truth is... Kalyan's missing.
* Rani: What?! Why didn't you tell me?
* Priya: I... I just...
* Rani: What POSSIBLE reason could you have for hiding something from your own mother?!
* Rani: And WHY in the world would he run off in the first place?!

* Jenny: Calm down, Priya. We'll just...
* Jenny: Let's just take the bus and check out every stop.
* Priya: Okay...
