影片对白

GUPTA: The phone's ringing off the hook.

MIA: What?! Oh!

O'CONNELL: Mia, your mother's on her way.

GUPTA: Gupta. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. The queen is coming to Grove High School.

SUKI: A limo with flags!

MALE REPORTER: A Genovian limousine has arrived. The queen is getting out.

MAN: Your Majesty.

SUKI: Why all the secrets? All we keep hearing is ''No comment. No comment.'' Do you have a comment?

MAN: Your Majesty—

MALE REPORTER: Will you be visiting the White House?

MALE REPORTER: Are you taking the princess home?

MIA: Mom, I don't know who told on me.

CLARISSE: We'll get to the bottom of this.

GUPTA: Here's your tea, Your Majesty. I'm sorry we don't have finer china.

CLARISSE: That’s perfectly all right.

GUPTA: Here.

CLARISSE: Joseph?

JOE: Speak.

MIA: Paolo?

PAOLO: Majesty, it was I who told the press about the princess, about you. I outed you. So to speak. I don't mean to imply--

JOE: Grazie. Prego.

PAOLO: But not for money, Principessa. Paolo hates money. He spits on money. There was no money. Well, there was some money. After all, a man like me, each ring is--The point is, it was pride and ego who drove me to know that royalty would see one day the beauty was mine! The hair was mine! That I, Paolo Puttanesca, was responsible for--

JOE: Grazie. Prego.

PAOLO: By the way, your hair--magnificent. The next time, we go a little lighter?

MALE REPORTER: Your Highness, would you like to say anything?

GUPTA: Isn’t that just awful? Doesn't anyone respect royalty anymore? What is it like in Genovia, Your Majesty? Do people just fawn over you?

CLARISSE: I wonder, would you give us a moment alone?

GUPTA: I’m the vice-principal.

CLARISSE: Joseph, would you take this fine educator and show her your security plans for Amelia’s safety?

JOE: What? Ah, yes, of course. Of course. Yes.

GUPTA: Your Majesty, thank you.

JOE: Your security system is a bit lax.

GUPTA: Oh, is it?

HELEN: A week ago, Mia was a normal little kid.

CLARISSE: She has never been normal. She was born royal. And we cope with the press every single day and we will do it again.

HELEN: You don't have to do this. You can get out of this whole thing right now.

CLARISSE: Your mother is right, Amelia. We had a bargain.

MIA: All right. I will think about it and let you know soon.

CLARISSE: Good. A diplomatic answer. Polite, but vague.
