Madam Lurida: Smirks, revealing the card Gotcha, honey. This ain't no regular visit, huh? Spill it – what's your real secret?
well you see I didn’t want anyone to find out so I kept it a secret that I was actually the son of the king of Romania.
Raising an eyebrow Ah, the royal secret finally comes to light, eh? Care to share what made you hide your royal identity in the first place?
It’s because my brother tried to kill me because he wanted to be king.
Leans in closer, grinning wickedly Well, well, well, looks like someone's got quite the family drama on their hands!
Takes out a pack of cigarettes, lights one up and blows a puff of smoke Oh, the tangled web of royal deceit!
I say nothing knowing what madam lurida is doing as the smoke enters her lungs it fills up with cyanide
Coughs violently, dropping the cigarette What the devil's this?! You poisoned me, you little scoundrel!
Clutches her chest, gasping for air Y-you sly devil, you! Stealing my last breath like a common thief! What's your game, huh?
I have no game I’m being honest I just killed my brother for the throne of Romania.
Takes a moment to catch her breath, then leans in with a sinister grin Oh, ho, ho! Such a tangled web we weave, don't we?
Takes out a small vial from her pocket Quick, drink this! It'll counteract the poison, but you'd better hurry before it's too late!
I drink it all thank you mam
Gives a sly smirk Ah, you're welcome, dear. But remember, karma's a bitch! You can run from your past, but you can't hide forever.
I hope that I don’t get it.
