(The Scene is in Kensington Palace , London , on Christmas Day.)
King Edward: My fellow Royals and Nobles , let us commemorate Christmas by enjoying this banquet prepared for us. Let us remember the joyous birth of our Lord.
Queen Jessica: Let us all get to our seats. His Majesty The King has some honours and appointments to announce.
King Edward: I would like to thank of you Nobles for so faithfully serving this nation and the Crown. I would like to reward all of you. In particular , Duke Thomas has been a great help to my family , especially during Queen Jessica's illness , which she recently recovererd from.
Duke Thomas: You flatter me , Your Majesty. I thank you for your benovelence.
Queen Jessica: I will personally like to thank Duke Thomas for his care and concern for me. I , as Queen Consort have decided this. Duke Thomas shall be my personal Lord In Waiting.
King Edward: (Appears Shocked)
Queen Mother Clarrise: Jessica , wouldn't it be more appropriate if you had ladies in waiting?
Queen Jessica: I think it is fine. Why can't a fine Noble like Duke Thomas serve me , The Queen?
Princess Edwina: Jessica , if my brother is fine with it , then I think you can go ahead with it.
Queen Jessica: Edward , just approve it! There is nothing big to it anyway.
King Edward: Well , anything you desire , my beloved consort. Your wish is my command. Hence , I noe declare Duke Thomas , The Duke Of Manchester , personal Lord in waiting to Queen Jessica , my wife and Queen.
Duke Thomas: I shall accept this heavy responsibility and do everything associated with it well , Your Majesty.
Queen Mother Clarrise: Duke Thomas , this is a big responsibility.
Duke Charles: My Honoured Duke Thomas , I think you are more suited to serve outside the Royal Residences , back in your dukedom of Manchester. I don't think such an indoor job is suited for you.
Queen Jessica: Duke Charles , it is I who wants him to serve me. Are you saying I do not know what I am doing?
Queen Mother Clarrise: Jessica , Charles has a point...
Queen Jessica: Don't interfere Mother.
King Edward: Enough! I henceforth declare that Queen Jessica has the right to choose her own attendants. If her choice is Duke Thomas , so be it. In any case , I trust Duke Thomas. He has been an old Noble of the court.
(The Scene is in The Royal Chambers in Kensington Palace)
Queen Jessica: Honey , I love this place. After the previous refurbishment , it looks as good as new.
King Edward: It is your Christmas gift , Honey.
Queen Jessica: That's so sweet. Thank You!
King Edward: No problem , Jessica. I love you , dear.
(The Scene is in The Noble Stratmore Residence in Windsor , England)
Lady Denise Stratmore: Oh , Elizabeth , you have yet another letter from a secret admirer!
Lady Elizabeth Stratmore: Oh , Denise. I myself am confused. Beauty and Attraction can sometimes be weary. I really do not know which of my suitors to pick. In particular , my heart fonders for Duke Charles , the Duke of Liverpool , as well as Earl Alexei , the Earl of Snowdon.
Lady Alexandrina Stratmore: It turns out that many eligible male Nobles have sought your hear , sister. Duke Thomas , Duke Charles , Earl Alexei , Duke Brandon , even Sir John Cunningham , the Army General!
Lady Elizabeth : You have failed to mention one more. He is none other than The Tsar of Russia! During The Tsar 's last visit to Great Britain , he met me while I was at Buckingham Palace. Subsequently , he sent me letters from Russia! The Tsar is a nice man , but somehow I do not fancy him. Apparently , after I rejected him , he has been very upset with me.
Lady Alexandrina : What about the other suitors you rejected?
Lady Elizabeth: I am still on talking terms with Duke Thomas and Duke Brandon. However , we rarely communicate with each other. I do not know the reason. I still do communicate occasionally with Sir John Cunningham though.
Lady Denise: Somehow , I feel that Duke Thomas hasn't given up on you yet. I heard that even The King and Dukes Charles and Brandon think this way too.
Lady Elizabeth: I cannot be bothered. Duke Thomas is not for me. We were once attached for a very brief period of time , but it did not work out. Anyway , what about the two of you? How are your romantic lives?
Lady Alicia: I have no suitors at the moment.
Lady Denise: Neither do I , sister.
(The Scene is in The Queen 's Chamber , Buckingham Palace)
Duke Thomas: Your Majesty , I have arrived.
Queen Jessica: Great. (Dismisses all servants) Now we have privacy.
Duke Thomas: Your Majesty , you look absolutely gorgeous today.
Queen Jessica: Thank You. Let us have some tea , shall we? (Serves Tea)
Duke Thomas: (Helps himself to tea) Your Majesty , how has the plan been?
Queen Jessica: Oh. In two weeks time , The King will go to Russia for a state visit. During that time , we can spend time together in the privacy and shelter of Balmoral Castle. It is a beautiful place.
Duke Thomas: Yes! Thank Goodness you took my suggestion by telling His Majesty to visit Russia.
(Meanwhile...Outside The Chamber)
Earl Alexei: What , Duke Thomas is having an affair with The Queen? How dare Thomas! He may be my good friend , but I certainly must teach him a lesson.
Lady Elizabeth: My my , The King will be so hurt when he finds out. What shall we do? I really do not want The King , my great friend , to be saddened and enraged.
Earl Alexei: I don't know. As His Majesty's subjects and friends , we ought to tell him the truth.
Queen Jessica: (Comes Out) Who is there?
Lady Elizabeth: Your Majesty , we wanted to pay new year respects to you. We have just done so to His Majesty.
Earl Alexei: Thomas , I heard everything you said.
Duke Thomas: (Changes Face) Alexei , do not breathe a word of this. I beseech you.
Queen Jessica: Yes , Elizabeth. Please help us and do not spread this around. If His Majesty hears this , he will be hurt.
Earl Alexei: More than that. This is high treason!
Queen Jessica: Please , Elizabeth. On account of our friendship.
Duke Thomas: And On account of ours , Alexei....
Earl Alexei: I do not know what to do , Elizabeth.
Lady Elizabeth: Let us return to our residences to think about it. We shall depart ,Your Majesty. Farewell. (Leaves)
Earl Alexei: Farewell (Leaves)
Queen Jessica: I pray their lips are sealed.
Duke Thomas: So do I , Your Majesty.
