First stop: Paris, France!
But what about the casino
that you're going to start with daddy?
Oh that.
Baby doll I don't know quite how to say this,
but your dad's a bit of a downer.
He smells real bad and drools a lot.
And sometimes when I look at him, I throw up a little
bit in my mouth and then I have to swallow it.
That's not true.
Shh.
(alarm honking)
You know.
I have to go.
Baby doll?
Stephanie!
I've been looking everywhere for you.
Why?
I'm afraid darling that the spill at the Purple Mist planthas made us all severely sick.
The town is being quarantined.
Quarantined?
No, you're making all of this up!
You're lying!
(growling)
Stephanie, my love.
Sooner or later you're going to have to accept it.
We're infected.
The whole town.
The mutations are imminent.
We're no longer welcome in the world outside. Stop saying these things!
That's far enough Ma'am.
Get off me!
