I agree.16 Another quick dip from the maid. Elvira follows suit and removes her elbow-length gloves, which she hands to her. MAID Your shoes, Mum? She curtsies once again. Elvira begins to curtsy, then catches herself. ELVIRA Okay, hold it right there! I usually get paid for this sort of thing... EMA If you please, Madam. I'm afraid it's imperative. You see, my husband suffers from an acute affliction of the hearing. Sounds that seem commonplace to you and I, cut into his head like knives. ELVIRA You sure he doesn't just have some kind of kinky foot thing? Elvira hops on one foot as she tries to remove her boot. She bumps into a Ming vase sitting on a pedestal. The vase falls and SHATTERS. Elvira yanks the boot off and falls into a rocking chair. The chair rocks back over a cat's tail. The cat HOWLS and leaps away, tripping a SERVANT that happens to be passing by carrying a huge array of pots and pans. The Servant drops the pots and pans and they CLATTER to the floor. Zouzou sees Elvira struggling to remove her other boot. Facing away from her, she steps over her extended leg and grabs the boot. Elvira puts her other foot on Zouzou's butt and pushes. Zouzou and the boot go flying into a huge GONG. The SOUND of the gong ECHOES throughout the castle. Elvira stands and smiles sheepishly.
