EXT. COUNTRY - BREAK OF DAWN
Anya is walking ahead with Vladiair as Dmitri follows
he's still muddy, wet and unhappy.
VLADIMIR
No have a lot of work to do,
Anya! Come along, Meetoo!
Meetoo is trying to catch fire flies in his mouth.
VLADIMIR (CONT.)
We have to prepare you for an
audience with Sophie.
ANYA
Who's Sophie?
VLADIMIR
(lost in warm memories)
Ah ... the Lady Sophie... The
ravishing first cousin, once
removed, from the Empress. We
must convince Sophie that you
are the Princess before we'll
be granted a meeting with the
Empress ... your grandmother,
I mean.
Anya stops dead in her tracks, this is the first she's
heard of this.
ANYA
What?!
Dmitri, not paying attention, slams into the back
of Anya. Anya, not hurt, turns to Dmitri - who is
rubbing his now sore shoulder.
ANYA (CONT.)
You never said anything to me
about having to prove I'm a
Princess!
DMITRI
You are the Princess.
VLADIMIR
We're just going to refresh
your memory...
ANYA
I don't have a memory and I'm
not a Princess!
(looks down at herself)
Even if I were - no one's ever
going to believe it. I'm not
exactly...
Anya searches for the -word as she sits down next
to a frozen pond.
ANYA (CONT.)
(sadly to herself)
... good enough...
(to others)
I can't go through with this!
Dmitri sits next to Anya and looks at her reflection
in the ice.
DMITRI
What do you see?
ANYA'S POV
her smudged face and boy's clothes. Dmitri's hands
come into frame, wipe off her face with snow and
them pull her hair off her face. Anya does, truly,
look pretty.
DMITRI(CONT.)
See? The Princess is under there ...
VLADIMIR
Ah! Let us begin!
A POSSIBLE VLADIMIR SONG
Vladimir would begin to sing here, telling Anya that she
has a lot to learn. The music would probably have a
LIGHT, SOMEWHAT COMEDIC tone, and would be just a SHORT
SECTION OF SINGING, which would then SEGUE TO UNDERSCORE
for the scenes of instruction which follow.
We see the three of them from behind, walking down a
road - Meetoo trots behind them, happily.
VLADIMIR (CONT.)
You were born on the Adriatic sea at
the summer palace, where the parties
and the buffets were marvelous ....
EXT. SLEIGH - DAY
Vladimir is putting icicles in Anya's hair to keep it
up in a bun - she looks sweet, despite her boy's clothes.
She is reciting something to Dmitri.
ANYA
...and on my father's side,
there was [THIS SECTION IS NOT LEDGABLE]
Anya thinks as Dmitri looks at a long sheet of
paper, prompting her.
DMITRI
Every Russian family has one..
ANYA
(gets it)
Natasha! Natasha Feastavich!-
but we called her Nashie
Fooshie!
VLADIMIR
Did I tell you that?
ANYA
You must have.
EXT. PIG CART - DAY
Anya, Dmitri and Vladimir are sitting in the back of a
pig cart traveling down a country road. The pigs are very
interested as Anya is pointing to different pieces of hay
which "set" her imaginary table.
ANYA
(repeating)
...fish fork, salad fork, meat fork and. . .
(can't remember, then
exasperated)
[THIS SECTION ALSO NOT LEDGABLE]
DMITRI
(hinting)
It's the best fork of all
ANYA
The dessert fork!
VLADIMIR
(lost in a memory of
rich desserts)
Ah, yes ... I have always loved
that fork...
Dmitri and Anya exchange a look and then laugh,
adding ad libs of "we can tell" and "There's a
fork you should have skipped". This is the first
time Dmitri and Anya have laughed together -
actually the first time he's ever seen her smile.
EXT. PORT - DAY
Dmitri, who is sneaking around, pulling women's clothes
out of a suitcase that clearly isn't theirs! He takes
out a large, but pretty dress, a beautiful veil - and a
huge brassiere, which he quickly stuffs back in the
suitcase - somewhat frightened. He takes the dress and
veil puts it in his backpack and joins Vladimir and Anya
as they admire the ship.
ANYA
What a beautiful ship!
DMITRI
It used to be a private yacht
before the government took it over.
VLADIMIR
Oh, yes it was the seagoing vessel
of elaborate elegance in entertaining...
(looks at Dmitri and Anya explaining)
A party boat. It once belonged to ...
Vladimir honestly can't remember, Anya thinks it's
another quiz.
ANYA
Konstantin Petrovich of Moscow!
Dmitri and Vladimir exchange a quizzical look. No
one told her that...
Meetoo spots TWO UGLY PUG DOGS and a distinguished
ELDERLY DOWAGER. He runs happily to play with them.
She pulls her DOGS away from Meetoo.
ELDERLY DOWAGER
No, no, boys! You don't know where
he's been!
They give him a disgusted look and walk away. Meetoo
looks a little hurt.
INT. HALLWAY OF THE SHIP - NIGHT
Dmitri and Vladimir are standing by a closed door.
Anya is on the other side.
ANYA (0. C.)
No! I look ridiculous!
VLADIMIR
Come out! I can do alterations.
ANYA (O.C.)
You'll laugh.
VLADIMIR
I shant!
ANYA (O.C.)
Not you. Him.
DMITRI
I won't laugh - I swear...
The door opens and Anya comes out in the blue dress
Dmitri stole which at least ten sizes too big for her.
She is still wearing her hair up and despite the size
which actually gives her a "Kate Moss" waifish look
with her men's boots and baggy dress - the blue brings
out her eyes. Dmitri sees her and BUSTS OUT LAUGHING.
ANYA
You said you wouldn't laugh!
DMITRI
It's not you - it's the dress!
Anya storms back into the cabin and slam the door behind her.
INT. CABIN - SIMULTANEOUS ACTION
When Anya storms into the cabin, she catches a glimpse of
herself in the mirror.
ANYA
(to herself)
I'm never going to be..
Just then, the slamming door catches the back of her dress,
pulling more than half of it into the door frame. She sees
in the mirror that the now fitted dress shows a lovely
woman's figure. Pleased, she looks at herself.
ANYA (CONT.)
Well! Maybe I am...
EXT. CABIN DOOR - NIGHT
Vladimir and Dmitri wait outside the door. The door opens
and Anya appears, having tied the veil around the waist
of the dress, making it look fitted and beautiful. Dmitri
and Vladimir are surprised as Anya walks past them with
confidence and throws them a look over her shoulder.
"REPRISE OF VLADIMIR'S SONG (OVER MONTAGE)
The tone of the song would now change - - the older,
wiser person watching as two younger people are
unwittingly falling in love. The tone can still be
light, as are the visuals here, but there would be
an undercurrent of irony and romance. The song would
end as Anya and Dmitri have their first, momentary
embrace.
MONTAGE: (MOS)
ON DECK: Anya, still in her boots, walks gracefully
down the deck in spite of the ship's rocking motion.
Dmitri and Vlad can't even stand due to the motion.
Anya looks back and flashes them a smile.
IN THEIR CABIN: Dmitri gets out of the bed he's
been sharing with Vlad and walks over, past where
Anya is sleeping peacefully, to close the port hole
against a cold wind. He closes is and see's Anya -
she looks beautiful - he bends down to pull up her
covers and she SLUGS him.
UNDER A TABLE: Meetoo is walking around sniffing
feet. Suddenly, he runs smack into the TWO UGLY
PUG DOGS who growl at him. He runs away and finally
see's a woman's foot and a pair of pretty feminine
shoes, with heels, that she has kicked off. Meetoo
grabs them in his mouth and runs.
ON DECK: The sea is calm, but Anya - wearing the heeled
shoes for the first time - is teetering and wobbling
like mad. Dmitri and Vlad watch her with amusement.
Anya turns to them.
ON DECK: Dmitri has stuffed his feet into the woman's
shoes and is barely able to walk as Anya watches him
with great vindication.
BALLROOM: Anya walks -into the ballroom, steady and
graceful in her new shoes, on Vladimir's arm and
completes a perfect curtsy in front of Dmitri. Dmitri
applauds and moves down to her as she stands and smacks
him with her head accidently.
THEIR CABIN: Vladimir is directing Anya as she waltzes
gracefully in their swaying cabin. Dmitri enters and is
directed to join Anya. He does and they dance together,
with Anya clearly leading. The boat sways to the left
and Anya is thrown closer into Dmitri's arms. Neither
of them even try to readjust.
END MONTAGE
STILL IN THE SCENE
Vladimir walks over to Anya and nervously chatters (he
knows he interrupted something) as he leads her away
from Dmitri.
VLADIMIR
You are a natural! I don't know
how you ever learned to dance
that well! That must have been
some high class orphanage ...
EXT. SEA - NIGHT
As a storm begins to whip up, the wind starts to howl
and the waves become more violent.
REVERSE ANGLE
just as a BOLT OF LIGHTNING STRIKES the water, we see
Rasputin's face.
INT. CABIN - NIGHT
The storm is pitching the boat wildly. Vladimir is
sleeping, snoring loudly. Meetoo, sound asleep, is
sliding from side of the cabin to the other. Anya
is looking out the small port hole at the violent
sea when Dmitri, carrying his back pack, sits on the
bed next to her.
DMITRI
I wanted to show you something.
Dmitri takes out the music box and hands it to Anya.
She is immediately taken by it, something about it ...
ANYA
It's so beautiful ... and sad.
DMITRI
Sad?
ANYA
Lost. it feels lost. This was hers?
DMITRI
Yeah ... well, yours. You still
don't believe that you're the
Princess, do you?
ANYA
I know I must have had something
to do with the palace - I've had
little flashes of things - but
being the Princess? It doesn't
matter as long as I find my home.
DMITRI
Well, the only thing you've got
when you've got a home is a fear
of losing it! You're lucky you
don't remember the revolution --
I never had much, but what I did
have -- I lost.
ANYA
I'm sorry.
DMITRI
(false bravado)
Hey! It doesn't matter! You gotta
make your own way in the world!
Don't be sorry for me! I'm going
to get what I want don't you worry!
Dmitri goes back over to his bed. Anya sees through
him and knows how much it all did matter to him.
EXT. SEA CLIFF - NIGHT
The wagon sits on the edge of a high cliff. Rasputin
stands on the top of his wagon, staring at the sea
demonically. The jagged bolts of lightening and the
icy silver rain make him look all the more menacing.
RASPUTIN
(low, slow)
She's out there ...
The wind parts his beard and we see Bartok hanging
upside down in it, trying to stay out of the storm.
BARTOK
I'm getting a chest cold..
RASPUTIN
Bartok... a question.
BARTOK
I'm getting pneumonia. I have
a fever. Feel my forehead...
RASPUTIN
What do you think is the most
humiliating way to die?
Rasputin's eyes light up as if he just thought of the
answer to his own question. Bartok is thrown out of his
beard when he makes a sudden turn and leaps off the
wagon. Bartok follows.
BARTOK
My cousin Mischa, nice fellow
had some dental problems - you
didn't want to watch him eat,
let's put it that way...
Rasputin steps in
INT. WAGON - NIGHT
As Bartok continues, Rasputin moves to the
reliquary's cabinet.
BARTOK
... anyway, a bunch of other
bats were hanging in the belfry -
I know, cliche, but there you have
it, and Mischa, not the brightest
bat in the world, decides to hang
in the bell. Which was fine
for awhile until it started ringing ...
(shivers)
Ewwww, what a mess ...
RASPUTTN
(to reliquary)
Show her to me ...
BARTOK
And it didn't help the tonal
quality of the bell, either.
IMAGES, horrifying and frightening, begin to spin
into a small tornado. Rasputin throws open the door
and the TORNADO bursts out streaking across the water.
EXT. SEA CLIFF - NIGHT
Rasputin follows tornado to the cliff and watches
as it disappears into the horizon of the water.
Lightning and thunder crash as he laughs maniacally.
INT. CABIN - NIGHT
which is swaying with the storm. PAN past Vladimir,
snoring, his now limp mustache flopping wildly and
past Dmitri, sleeping restlessly. Move to Anya, who
seems quite content.
From under the door SMOKY IMAGES silently slither.
They float across the cabin and swirl around Anya.
CLOSE ON:
Anya's CLOSED EYES as the SMOKY IMAGES seem to enter
her head. She smiles in her sleep and we are in ANYA'S
DREAM. . .
EXT. FOREST - DAY
Anya, in a beautiful white dress, is walking peacefully
through a sunny part of a lovely forest on a spring day.
She reaches down to pick some pretty flowers, then looks
up as it seems to get dark... OMINOUS LOOKING CLOUDS cover
the sun. Anya reaches down for another flower when she
HEARS A GROWL.
Anya spins to see an ENORMOUS BEAR emerge from the trees.
(All the animals in the dream sequence have a SLIGHT
resemblance to Rasputin.) Anya is frozen with fear as MORE
BEARS emerge and head straight for her. She tries to back
away as the beautiful FLOWERS GROW LONG AND HORRIBLE THORNS
and wrap around her ankles, impeding her escape.
It gets darker as the BEAR'S EYES, glowing yellow, multiply
and move closer. Anya pulls free of the flowers and rushes
to the safety of a large tree She climbs the tree and
escapesthe bears. Looking down, from her perch on a sturdy
branch, the ground seems miles away.
Suddenly, the BRANCH JOLTS her and almost falling, she hold
on to it tightly. But the branch TURNS IN TOWARD
HER - no longer a tree branch, but A HUGE UGLY SNAKE with
red eyes and huge fangs that come right for her!
Anya leaps to another branch, which also turns into a snake.
She jolts backward and begins to fall ... toward a HUNDRED
YELLOW EYES, FIFTY BLOOD RED MOUTHS AND THOUSANDS OF SHARP
TEETH. As Anya falls, she lets out a SILENT SCREAM.
A BURST OF SUNLIGHT
as Anya lands in a field of soft GOLDEN WHEAT. Unharmed
and very relieved, she stands and looks around at the
beautiful sunny wheat field.
INT. CABIN
Reality. Anya's eyes are closed as she smiles in her
sleep and sits up in bed. TINY WISPS of smoke still
swirl around her head. As she gets out of bed, she
unintentionally steps on Meetoo's tail, waking him.
Meetoo watches as the sleeping Anya opens the cabin door
and walks out.
Meetoo rises to follow Anya but the ship pitches, sending
him sliding across the cabin floor.
EXT. DECK - NIGHT
Anya walks out on the deck, the ship pitching violently
in the storm, as she smiles.
IN HER DREAM
Anya is walking through the wheat field to the edge of
a BLUFF. A few yards below the bluff, Anya sees a beautiful
little pond where a FAMILY frolic's in the clear water;
laughing, splashing, swiming happily. Anya climbs over a
low flowering wall to look closer.
PULL BACK
REALITY: Anya has climbed over the railing of the deck
and is looking into the black ocean... smiling.
DISSOLVE TO:
A SMOKY IMAGE OF THE SAME SCENE
It's RASPUTIN'S POV as he watches his plan unfold in the
reliquary.
INT. CABIN
Meetoo finally rights himself from his slide across the
floor and begins to bark into Dmitri's ear.
EXT. DECK
Anya is waving happily at the dangerous water.
IN HER DREAM
Anya is waving to the FAMILY. They turn around toward
her and she sees that it's the ROMONOV FAMILY, from
the frieze that she saw in the palace. She is delighted
to see them as she feels a distance recollection of who
they are to her.
INT. CABIN
Meetoo jumps up and NIPS at Dmitri's hand. Dmitri leaps
up with an "owwww!" and looks over at the excited Meetoo.
DMITRI
If you have to go - wake her..
Dmitri looks over to Anya's bed - she isn't sits up and
throws his legs over the side
EXT. DECK
Anya is standing right on the edge of death...
IN HER DREAM
She isn't there. He of his bed.
the FAMILY is waving to her. NICHOLAS waves for her to
jump into the clear pond and join them. Anya nods and
moves to jump in...
EXT. DECK
Anya gets ready to jump into the violent and icy black
waves. She takes one step out when... DMITRI GRABS HER
SHOULDERS.
Anya JOLTS awake from her dream. Confused at first,
then terrified to see what almost happened to her.
isn't lifts her to the other side of the railing
and looks at her.
DMITRI
What were you doing?!
Anya puts her hands to her mouth in shock, shaking
and almost crying with fear, she throws her arms
around Dmitri and holds him tightly.
Dmitri is surprised at first, but tightens his arms
around her.
DMITRI (CONT.)
It's okay now - I've got you.
You're safe...
They stand steady on the deck in a tight embrace,
their feelings for each other are stronger than the storm.
DISSOLVE TO:
THE SAME, as seen through the reliquary
Rasputin watches ... seething quietly, as Bartok peeks
meekly over his shoulder.
BARTOK
Boy, don't you hate it when
that happens?
RASPUTIN
(controlling)
She leads a charmed life, that
little one ... Someone is always
there to save her. In the palace
as a child, on the train and now
... it's him.
Rasputin studies Dmitri in the reliquary - Dmitri and
Anya still in a warm embrace.
BARTOK
Nice looking fellow. I mean,
don't get me wrong - I'm not
attracted to him in the physical
sense, I just ...
But Rasputin's not interested, he stares into the
reliquary and speaks directly to it.
RASPUTIN
You are toying with me, aren't
you? You let me get so close...
The reliquary, as if in answer, seem to be chuckling.
Rasputin smiles and joins in with it.
RASPUTIN (CONT.)
Bartok ... have you ever been to Paris?
BARTOK
Me? No. Rich food - it kills me.
Ever try and fly after one of
those heavy sauces?
Rasputin returns the reliquary to its cabinet.
RASPUTIN
We are going to Paris - and while
we're there, let's kill the young
man. He annoys me.
EXT. BOAT DOCK (LA HAVRE) - DAY
As Anya walks down the plank her dress gets caught
on a nail. Dmitri is walking toward her as she yanks her
dress free and accidentally punches him in the stomach.
Dmitri takes it like a man.
ANYA
Oh! I'm sorry...
DMITRI
It's okay. Didn't hurt..
Vlad has been watching as he walks down the plank
with Meetoo - they exchange an "oh boy" look, both
noticing that clearly something is different between
Anya and Dmitri. Anya catches something out of the
corner of eye and turns quickly.
CLOSE ON a sign: "Paris 30 kilometers"
Anya walks away from Dmitri and over to the sign
and looks at it longingly.
ANYA
(to herself)
I'm almost there... I'm finally
going to know...
AT THE OTHER END OF THE DOCK
Vladimir stares into his purse, depressed.
DMITRI
How is our current financial status?
VLADIMIR
If I used the word "bleak" I would
be optimistic.
As he says this the ELDERLY DOWAGER from the ship
passes by with her TWO OBNOXIOUS PUG DOGS. Meetoo
growls as Vlad and Dmitri get an idea.
VLADIMIR (CONT.)
The "Odessa Dunk"?
DMITRI
It worked in Odessa...
Vladimir picks up Meetoo and whispers instructions.
Meetoo likes the plan.
NEW ANGLE
as Meetoo races past the PUGS. They ignore him, so he
stops and makes a face, giving them a sloppy "razzberry",
which piques them a little. Meetoo then bends over and
waves his furry little butt at them. Now the PUGS are
offended and TAKE OFF after him, yapping all the way.
Meetoo turns and scrambles with the Pugs in hot pursuit.
As they get closer, Meetoo SUDDENLY STOPS and the Pugs
go FLYING OFF they edge of the dock and into the water
below. Meetoo looks over the edge and gives them a 'Boy,
are you guys morons look as the ELDERLY DOWAGER runs
up screaming.
ELDERLY DOWAGER
Help! My little dogs! Chevalier! Maurice!
Hold on, darlings!
Dmitri comes running up, a little too gallant.
DMITRI
I'll save them, Madame
Dmitri dives into the water as Vlad rushes up behind
the Elderly Dowager. Anya watches from a distance as
Dmitri climbs out of the water carrying the soaked
(and pissed) Pugs.
VLADIMIR
Such bravery! Why, that man should
be rewarded! Amply rewarded!
MINUTES LATER
Dmitri hands Vlad a pile of FRANCS as Anya approaches.
ANYA
That was really very kind of you.
She gives him a kiss on the cheek and walks away with
Meetoo, who turns back and gives Dmitri a look. A
little guilty, Dmitri turns to Vlad.
VLADIMIR
I won't say a word...
EXT. GRAND OPEN CAR - DAY
Traveling is style! Vladimir is driving - badly - with
Meetoo in the front seat. Meetoo covers his eyes. Dmitri
and Anya are in the open back seat, enjoying the beautiful
French countryside.
Dmitri looks over at Anya.
DMITRI
Nervous?
ANYA
Yes - If I can't convince Sophie,
I'll never be able to see Tatiana....
DMITRI
You'll convince her. You have the
qualities of a princess you're
poised and strong... and beautiful
... even if you forget a couple
dates of family names - she'll know.
Anya smiles at Dmitri, knowing that all the confidence
she has is because of him. She takes his hand but
looks away.
EXT. TATIANA'S PARIS HOUSE - DAY
They pull up in front of the beautiful white house.
Anya is nervous as Vladimir walks up to the front door
ahead of Dmitri and Anya. Vladimir knocks. Sophie
answers the door.
She moves with grace and regal poise.
VLADIMIR
May I present her Royal
Highness Princess Anastasia!
SOPHIE
Oh good! We haven't seen an
Anastasia in several days!
Anya looks to Dmitri, a little confused by that last
comment. Dmitri makes a little "she's slightly crazy"
signal.
They all leap to avoid her butt as she bustles into
the house.
INT. DRAWING ROOM - DAY
Sophie, flanked by her sisters, sits at a table. Anya,
looking nervous but poised, sits across while Dmitri and
Vladimir hover nervously at the far end of the room.
Sophie's PAT CAT, TILLIE, attempts to cuddle up next to
Meetoo, who wants nothing to do with her.
SOPHIE
I'd just like to ask you a
few questions, dear...
Sophie opens a huge book that SLAMS open. Vlad and
Dmitri jump.
ANYA
Of course.
SOPHIE
Where were you born?
SCENE CONTINUES MOS
TIME LAPSE MONTAGE
Dmitri watches Anya answer questions gracefully and
without hesitating. Anya smiles as her answers begin
to surprise Sophie.
DMITRI (V.0.)
The real Anastasia couldn't have
grown up to be lovelier.
Sophie and the sisters look tired. Sophie has her last
question.
SOPHIE
(almost giggling)
This is the hard one ... what rare
treat was served on the night of
the Three Hundredth Anniversary of
the Romanov Dynasty? The last ball
they ever had?
Dmitri and Vladimir exchange a nervous look. It's
obvious they never briefed Anya on this one.
Anya thinks a moment, then looks up, smiling, as
she remembers ...
ANYA
Father had fresh tropical fruits
sent in. Oranges and pineapples
from the far east. I remember ...
I remember I threw an orange to a
young boy who was hiding under a
table...
Dmitri is shocked. He know this is Anastasia Romonov
and he can't believe it.
SOPHIE
(shocked)
Yes ... yes, it was fresh fruit.
Well, maybe not "fresh" Estelle
got one rather brown banana but ...
CLOSE ON
Dmitri, as he stares at Anya as Sophie prattles on.
MINUTES LATER
Anya sits near the window, stroking Tillie ...
much to the consternation of a jealous Meetoo.,
She looks out the window and sees Dmitri, deep
in thought, wandering in the garden.
OUT OF HER EARSHOT at the other end of the room,
Vladimir speaks to Sophie.
VLADIMIR
Are you impressed with our Anastasia?
SOPHIE
Oh, heavens - I must say, yes.
VLADIMIR
Then, you'll take her to see
Tatiana?
SOPHIE
Oh, heavens I must say... no, no
actually, I can't - Tatiana has
refused to see any more girls.
VLADIMIR
Perhaps you could convince her?
SOPHIE
Oh, heavens, no... but ...
(Vlad-leans closer as
Sophie shares a
naughty secret)
She is going to be at the
Ballet Russe tonight! That's
the Russian Ballet - Russe for
Russian, oh those crazy
French... they only go to see
which dancers will defect.
She rises heading towards Anya. Her butt knocks over
a vase, which Vladimir deftly catches.
SOPHIE
Come my dear, we've much to
talk about.
EXT. GARDEN
Vladimir has finished giving Dmitri the details.
Both are ecstatic.
VLADIMIR
We did it! We did it, my boy! We're
going to see Tatiana at the ballet
tonight and we're going to be rich!
Rich!
DMITRI
But it's not the money, Vlad.
VLADIMIR
(shocked)
Are you feeling all right?
ANYA (CONT.)
(deeply grateful)
But you never doubted who I was,
did you, Dmitri? Not for a second ...
Anya gratefully kisses Dmitri an the cheek and
runs into the house. Vladimir, who's been watching,
has a warning.
VLADIMIR
Life is funny, isn't it. You find
the right girl ... and then you
lose her.
DMITRI
What do you mean?
VLADIMIR
Dmitri ... You must understand that
once you take her to Tatiana... well,
it's over... nothing can happen between
you. She's a princess and you're a
commoner.
Dmitri understands this and is devastated. Vladimir pats
him on the back as he walks into the house.
