The Goddess of Bran Muffins ( c ) 2024 4 .
DEMETER I ’ m looking for Joanne Michelson . I was told to come to the soundstage .
MARY Are you the new makeup artist ? If so , I have a list of things that you ’ ll need to--
DEMETER No , no . I ’ m not a makeup artist . I ’ m Demeter .
Both Joanne and Mary freeze , slowly reassessing Demeter .
Oh !
MARY
Mary doesn ’ t know what to do with herself . Does she bow ? Curtsy ? Offer a handshake ? She vacillates among the three .
Your highness !
MARY
DEMETER No need for that . I ’ m simply Demeter .
Demeter shakes Mary ’ s hand . Mary might be a little starstruck . She can ’ t let go .
Mary . Mary .
That ’ s enough Mary !
I ’ m Mary .

JOANNE
MARY
Yes , I figured that out .
DEMETER
