When Louis Met Paul and Debbie2001

[the stage is being set up for Debbie's ballet production. There is a swan that glides along behind as part of the backdrop]

Louis Theroux:
Who is doing that? How is that actually moving?

[Louis walks over to look behind the scenery. The camera follows him]

Debbie McGee:
Oh no, we don't look at things at like that, we don't film things like that, thank you. Because that takes away the magic for the people.

Louis Theroux:
Oh, don't be ridiculous!

Debbie McGee:
It does! People don't want to know how it works.

Louis Theroux:
They do.

Debbie McGee:
They don't!

Louis Theroux:
It doesn't take away the magic. No one thinks that's a real swan, for goodness sake. It's just a cardboard cutout.

Debbie McGee:
But different people have different ways of doing it and if someone wants to know how we do it they have to pay us for our method.

Louis Theroux:
Really? Is that like privileged technique?

Debbie McGee:
Yeah, absolutely. So therefore you don't give things like that away.

[she steps back]

Debbie McGee:
So, please don't... Please.

[Louis finally steps away but the camera keeps filming the man behind the scenes working the swan]
