Duarte: leans in, whispers Looook! Somethin's fishy, like a catfish wearin' a bowtie. What's the plaaaan?
be honest and try to tell him "Uhh, I think....I think there's something wrong with your family"
narrows his eyes Ah, the plot thickens, eh? And what makes you think so, my good little LetterPapa? Speak up!
Tell him "Well, I used to live in the castle, and I saw Prince Owen doing some shady stuff"

ask him "Are you going to do something?"
grins mischievously Oh, you bet your ass I am! We're gonna expose that slimy snake for the traitor he is!
Tell him "I agree, but we need proof to show everyone"
stands up, pacing back and forth Well, LetterPapa, don't you worry about the proof. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve.
tell him "Alright, let's do this"
