Kings

Kings2009



Michelle Benjamin:
I'm in trouble... I can't get out of it on my own, and no one else can help me.

Queen Rose Benjamin:
You should have thought of that during your photo shoot... With David Shepherd, I presume?... You've always been my little girl, even when we both pretended you weren't. Tomorrow, that's over. Your pictures will be broadcast; they'll be everywhere you turn, and places you do not. And there's nothing to be done.

Michelle Benjamin:
But you're the queen; can't you do something?

Queen Rose Benjamin:
It is the queen that is allowing it to happen. The story will dominate the news; you'll be ridiculed by women, made fantasy by men. And while David is congratulated, you'll be dragged through the mud... But when the dust settles, and memory fades, you'll be thought of as a woman - which is what you are - sexual, desirable... formidable. And you'll wield that power in ways young girls cannot.
