### Reprise

* Kayla Boubenweir: Is he gone? Can you imagine? He asked me to marry him! Me! The wife of that boorish, brainless... *Madame Gasket! Can't you just see it? Madame Gasket! His little wife No, sir! Not me! I guarantee it I want much more than this provincial life! I want adventure in the great wide somewhere I want it more than I can tell And for once it might be grand To have someone understand I want so much more than they've got planned*
