Casper is at the skating rink leaning against a railing as it snows. Several couples skate on the ice. Casper goes to a refreshment stand near the ice and buys a glass of hot cider, which he drinks. Ginevra, Jonathan, and Maeve arrive in a rented car and get out near the rink.
GINEVRA: All right. Here are your skates, try to look like you know what to do with them. |
She hands Maeve a pair of ice skates and rubs circulation into her leg.
MAEVE: I do know which part goes on the ground. |
GINEVRA: We'll have to go get some rentals in a minute, after we — aha! There he is, let's get you over there and then we'll be right back. |
Ginevra, Jonathan, and Maeve walk toward Casper.
MAEVE: It's sweet of you to come along, Jonathan. A little extra company is always welcome. |
JONATHAN: No bother, miss. |
Maeve waves at Casper as they arrive. Casper kisses both Maeve's cheeks, then both Ginevra's. Maeve kisses his cheek back.
GINEVRA: Mr. Iversson— uh. |
CASPER: Ms. Glaistig it is good to see you again. Oh and you Ms. Bianchi... Jonathan yes? |
He shakes Jonathan's hand.
MAEVE: Hello, there, Mr. Iversson. I hope we didn't keep you waiting? |
CASPER: Oh not at all — I just arrived myself. Thank you again for joining me. I have to say I was happy to hear that you also enjoyed skating — it's been awhile since I've had the opportunity so you'll have to forgive me if I take a few moments to get back in the swing of things. |
MAEVE: Of course, thank you for the invitation. |
JONATHAN: I can be running to the rentals for you if you like. Let you visit for a bit. |
GINEVRA: Oh, no, I'll come with you. I'm not quite sure of my size. You two go, we'll catch up! |
She squeezes Maeve's hand and grabs Jonathan's arm. Ginevra and Jonathan walk away toward the refreshment stand.
JONATHAN: Oh, all right then. |
MAEVE: I don't think I'll have to forgive you for much, Mr. Iversson. If Ginevra gave you the impression that I'm a frequent skater, I'm afraid she was stretching the truth. |
She shakes her head.
MAEVE: I mean, I do know how, but only the basics. |
CASPER: Did you want to head onto the rink now? Or would you prefer to get a warm drink first, there is a man over there selling a nice warm apple cider if you'd like. |
Maeve gestures toward the rink.
MAEVE: Oh, let's save the hot drinks for later. We'll probably need them after we've frozen ourselves in the wind for a little while. If that's all right with you? |
CASPER: That is more than all right with me Miss Glaistig. |
They both put on their skates. When they finish, Casper holds out a hand to Maeve.
CASPER: Hmmm well then we will have to rely on each other not to lose our footing. |
Maeve takes Casper's hand and he leads her to the rink, where they step onto the ice.
CASPER: If I remember correctly... the idea is not to fall. |
Ginevra and Jonathan arrive at
JONATHAN: Are we on some secret mission, then, or did I miss something in the way here? |
