Start: Olivia: There, this is more like it. Sit down, sit down. Pony pulls up a chair next to her and sits.
Olivia (casually plucks an orchid out of her vase and starts eating it): Mmmmm… Would you like to try one?

End: Olivia: It was there that he taught me how to live on orchids and read the stars… Zanzibar, say it!
Pony: Zanzibar! Hey, let’s play Geography!
