But how is Peter Lukas involved, Oswald internally repeats.

"I suppose if it works for her it works for her?" Mordred says, still trying not to laugh.

"Peter Lukas goes to all those parties too but Mariam dislikes him. Apparently he talks like he learned all of human interaction from a Dale Carnegie course. --Well, see you around." Inaaya gives Mordred her contact information so he can find her to schedule Church Expeditions.

"See you around!"

Meanwhile--

One Faldetta Peach is creeped out by Anita following her and runs away.

Another Faldetta Peach spots Araari following her.

"Oh, hello!"

“...Hello.”

"I saw you following. You don't have to be worried. I know you want to get into the business! It's really a great business. You set your own hours, work as little or as much as you want."

“I don’t really want to get into the business. I just wanted to know what you were doing.”

"Oh! Well, you should think about it. It's really a great business. Our boss respects women, you know. It's all about women supporting other women."

“That sounds quite nice! I’m glad that you like your job. Who is your boss?”

"--oh I shouldn't say that. She'll get mad at me."

“Of course. I apologize for asking.” Araari has kind of picked up on what is and is not appropriate for showing respect in America but she’s very out of her depth in Malta. Probably better to err on the side of being rude by doing nothing? “I don’t want to get you in trouble.”

"It's okay!" she says. "If you join you can find out!"

Meanwhile--

A third Peach thinks that she should take Magnificence with her while she runs her errands.

:O

yes okay he will hang out with this human who has excellent taste. but if she tries to trap him somewhere he is going to RUN AWAY.

She is going to the Hospital!

That sounds fun!

The nice lady is going to the hospital but she does not seem to be sick at ALL.

She goes into a meeting with a nurse.

CURIOUS. WHY then is she going to the hospital.

what is the MEANING of this BEHAVIOR.

She is going to a MEETING with a NURSE.

They are having a DISCUSSION.

A meeting about WHAT. Can he LEARN.

The nice lady was selling something and the nurse gives it to her!

Aha. It is perhaps THE THING HE IS SUPPOSED TO BE WATCHING FOR.

He will attempt to take a PICTURE.

The nice lady receives a box full of vials of a SUBSTANCE.
