[about Lily's friend] " Zavier " with a " Z? "

Lily:
No, I think it's with an "X."

Heather:
No, I'm certain it's a "Z." " Zavier " Like " Zorro. " It's the same sound. [Draws a "Z" in the air with her finger] Zorro marked his name with a "Z."

Lily:
It's an "X."

Heather:
But Zorro's with a "Z." I t's the same.

Violet:

Heather:
But it's Zorro- with a "Z."

Violet:
Actually there were two " Zorros. " One spelt his name with a " Z " and made a " Z " mark for Zorro , the other one spelled him name with an "X" and with his sword he'd make an "X" mark .
