Victoria - I have to say Max [stretches out] This might be the ONE good idea that you’ve ever had
Max- Wow, thanks Victoria. That’s actually pretty sweet coming from….
Victoria - [yawns] Don’t push your luck [rolls into a sleeping Chloe]
[Chloe wraps her arms around Victoria, which she doesn’t object to]
Max- [smiles before laying back down] Yup, a perfect day……. [lays down on grass and closes her eyes]
Kate- And look ! The butterflies have come out to play
Max- [eyes fly open] What ?!

Victoria - [grumbles]
Max- We have to get out of here…..
Kate- [smiles[ Oh look Max [points at Max’s shoulder] This one likes you
[Max looks at her shoulder, and finds an orange butterfly perching on top of it]
Max - [screeches]
