[Chrome and Juliana are talking in the hothouse at night]



Chrome:
There will be flowers of brown and green and black.



Juliana:
Black?



Chrome:
The Larousse collection specializes in dark plants, often black. Primula Arricula. Canna Indica. Tulipfera Nigra. Anemone Atrocarrulea.



Juliana:
I would be unacceptable then in a Larousse collection.



Chrome:
Oh, I think you would be rare enough, exotic enough.



Juliana:
But my skin is white.



Chrome:
Completely white?



Juliana:
Completely.



Chrome:
No blemishes, no stains?


[Juliana shakes her head "no."]



Chrome:

Juliana:

Chrome:
Perhaps if Monsieur Larousse was here he would be able to verify.



Juliana:
But in the absence of Monsieur Larousse -...



Chrome:
I am not worthy.



Juliana:
And I might not always find it convenient to wait for the arrival of Monsieur Larousse. May I move now?


[She flutters her fan, extinguishing the last candle]
