Act 1, scene 4

King Hirsch: Guten morgen Dornröschen! Get up and get ready, I have some business to attend to but your tutor will be here soon

Regen: Nein!! 

*Queen Ente strides in and pulls open the curtains

Queen Ente: I have to tutor Hugo, can you do ask your father asks for once?

Regen: Fine, whatever, Ich hasse the time difference over here!

*Regen gets up and dressed and heads to breakfast, a couple of minutes later Madam Hearst arrives and stands behind Regen who is wolfing down food

Madam Hearst: If you are to be Queen some day, you really ought to stop gorging

Regen: Entschuldigung, Wer glaubst zum Teufel du, dass du bist?

Madam Hearst: Darling, one must speak in ENGLISH if one is going to rule an ENGLISH kingdom

Regen: I will only repeat myself once, who the hell are you?

Madam Hearst: I am Madam Hearst but you may address me as Madam, I am your new tutor

Regen: Oh... well are you sure? I wasn't expecting someone so...old

Madam Hearst: How dare you talk to me like that!

Regen: How dare you disturb me while I am having breakfast!

*Madam Hearst pulls Regen's chair away from the table, Regen falls onto the floor with a thud

Regen: What did you do that for?

Madam Hearst: I will not tolerate rudeness, especially from a girl who has yet to learn her place

Regen: At least help me up

Madam Hearst: You are quite capable of helping yourself

Regen: Thank you so much (sarcastically)

* Regen follows Madam Hearst to a room which has maps all over the walls, a desk and chalkboard at the end of the room and a small table in front of the desk with a single chair. Madam Hearst stands in front of the chalkboard and points to the table

Madam Hearst: Sit

*Regen reluctantly sits down

Madam Hearst: In my lessons and in life there are four essential rules. Number one, obey all your betters, number two don't speak unless you are spoken to, number three know your place and number four, do your duty...
