'Gentleman'? [you can tell she's smiling now] I take it he's been on his good behavior. [it's a joke, and you can tell she doesn't quiiite believe Vayne's statement]

Is there any reason he wouldn't be? I believe I shall take this opportunity to know him better, as anyone who is important to you is important to me also.

Zidane is a very good person... but sometimes his manners might be a little lacking. [Is that affection in her voice? Oh yes.]

[And then, a pause. She grows serious] Vayne, once this is over, there are some important matters I need to discus with you. Among these matters... your friend, Dr. Cidolfus. I'm not sure if you're aware of some of his particularly unethical behavior.

[He's noticed and is mentally plotting to do something about it.]

Of course, I am willing to discuss anything you deem important, my dear. I must say, I am not informed of this issue you speak of. Pray enlighten me?
