HELEN: After the divorce,
we all discussed it.
:17:04
Your father
and your grandmother...
:17:06
both agreed
to keep that distance...
:17:08
so you would have a chance
of a normal childhood...
:17:10
free of
emotional complications.
:17:13
We were going to tell you
when you were 18 years old...
:17:16
but when your father died,
things changed, Mia.
:17:20
We wanted to protect you.
:17:22
You know what?
:17:25
I don't feel protected.
:17:28
You try living for 15 years...
:17:30
thinking that
you're one person...
:17:32
and then in five minutes
you find out...
:17:33
that you're a princess.
:17:34
Just in case...
:17:36
I'm not enough
of a freak already...
:17:37
let's add a tiara!
:17:39
[ Sighs ]
:17:42
Well, drink your soup.
:17:44
I'm not really hungry.
:17:46
Fine.
:17:47
Good night, sweetheart.
:17:51
Fat Louie...
:17:53
[ Purring ]
:17:54
You are so lucky...
:17:56
you don't know
who your parents are.
:17:57
[ Meow ]
:18:03
I've never ridden in a limo...
:18:06
he admitted bitterly
to himself...
:18:08
as he crossed
to the open window...
:18:10
and looked out at the bay,
the fog looming...
:18:13
like his pathetic life
before him.
:18:15
I can't believe I won an Emmy.
:18:17
I have this favorite photo
of Phillipe.
:18:20
We had so much fun
when we were in college.
:18:23
He was so full
of joie de vivre...
:18:26
always laughing and smiling.
:18:28
CLARISSE: I remember.
:18:30
Helen, if Amelia refuses
to accept the throne...
:18:34
then Genovia will cease
to exist as we know it.
:18:37
So the future
of your country...
:18:40
is in the hands
of my 15-year-old?
:18:50
Here it is.
:18:55
Oh.
:18:57
CLARISSE:
Phillipe was ready to be king.
