CARDINAL
He gets my blessings.
They drink their cups of tea. The cardinal takes one of the cakes as crumbs fall down his gown but he eats them.
A nun wearing a blue tunic with matching head gear moves towards them while pushing a few strands of hair back.
SISTER CAMILLA
It’s nice to find the children of God together.
CARDINAL
We were talking about Homer’s generosity. He let us use his boat while ignoring
the general.
SISTER CAMILLA
They want to take him to court in the mainland.

BISHOP
He’s a hero.
SISTER CAMILLA
I want him canonised by the pope.
She sits at the table and takes a cup of tea as Fifi appears in the scene. She shows her teats through a transparent blouse and her pants under a small mini skirt.
BISHOP
Fifi, it’s nice to see you here.
FIFI
I’m enjoying Homer’s hospitality.
Fifi shakes hands with the priests and hugs Sister Camilla. A tall nun wearing the same clothes as the other one appears in the scene.
SISTER ROSA

CARDINAL

They all stand up and applaud.
HOMER
I hope you’re enjoying your stay in my yacht.
SISTER CAMILLA
We are glad to be in this ship, far from a dangerous country.
HOMER

He gestures to the girl.
HOMER
This is Amelia. She is the head of the revolutionary movement of our country.
Amelia salutes everyone army style and looks at Fifi.
AMELIA
I have seen your face in the papers. You must be the wife of the general.
Fifi nods.
FIFI
I’m glad to meet you.
AMELIA
I wish I could say the same thing.
HOMER
Let’s drink to our health and freedom.
A sailor appears with a tray full of glasses plus two bottles of wine and puts everything on the table.
HOMER
Cardinal, would you like a glass of wine?
CARDINAL
I want a cup of tea.
HOMER
Does anyone want wine?
FIFI
I want a gin and tonic.
AMELIA
I wouldn’t mind a gin and tonic, Uncle Homer.
A sailor goes around replenishing cups of tea and coffee and pours gin and tonic in the girls’
