*Knock, knock, knock

Regen: (sleepily) Who is it?

Dia: It's Dia your majesty

Regen: You may come inn

*Dia walks in, Regen is sitting up in bed and Hugo is asleep at the end of the bed

Dia: Good afternoon your highness, I trust you slept well

Regen: God we had such a rough night, Prince couldn't find a comfortable position and I just couldn't seem to find the best place to put my hands, it was just so hot

Dia: Okay...

*Dia starts tidying the room

Dia: Well I hope her highness has an easier time of it tomorrow

Regen: Thank you Dia... wait a sec, did you say it was afternoon?

Dia: Yes your highness

Regen: I have never been so happy to hear those words in my life

Dia: May I ask why?

Regen: Today you may. I hate Monday mornings as they are full of meetings that I am never prepared for and gossip that always seems to ruin my image

*Hugo wakes up and stretches before walking to Regen and giving her a lick on the cheek, she kisses his forehead then he sits next to her

Hugo: (yawning) Good morning

*Dia finishes tidying and walks up to Hugo who gives her his paw, she shakes it

Dia: Good afternoon Prince

*Dia takes a step and looks at Hugo and then at Regen

Dia: Well I shall be going then

* She curtseys and walks towards the door before turning around and walking up to Regen

Dia: Your highness, I am dreadfully sorry but I forgot to give you a really important message from the interrogator

*She hands Regen a piece of folded up paper

Dia: Now I really must go or your mother will have my guts for garters

* Dia curtseys then scampers off, Hugo curls up and falls asleep with his head on Regen's lap, Regen opens the letter

Chorus 2.0 : (in a stereotypical teenage girl voice) Dear your majesty, OMG you will never guess who I found yesterday. Miley Cyrus, nope, Justin Bieber, thank absolute fuuu

* Chorus 2.0 looks into the audience

Chorus 2.0 : udge sundae I didn't run into him or I would have been like baby,baby,baby no, like baby,baby, go! I actually found Hagatha, I really am amazing aren't I. Anyways me and the boys hand cuffed her and the original plan was to keep her safe in the dungeon but then we took pity on the poor old thing and hand cuffed her to the four poster bed in the guest room, BTW hope you don't mind. We let her keep her little basket of milk so she doesn't die of thirst, I know what you are thinkin, OMG they are so thoughtful. I know, thankyou. You can interrogate her whenever you feel like or whatever, I don't care. ttyl babes, Rusty (Interrogator)

*Regen shakes Hugo to wake him up

Regen: Prince, would you mind bringing Rusty here?

Hugo: Yes I would mind, I am still tired and I want to go back to sleep

Regen: Come on boy, fetch Rusty

Hugo: Uugh fine

*Hugo stands up and walks to the edge of the bed, he underestimates how high up the bed is and tumbles onto the floor, Regen laughs and Hugo picks himself up off the floor and walks out of the room. once he has left Regen falls back to sleep. Chorus 2.0 holds up a sign that says 5 minutes later

Rusty: Hi your majesty

*Regen wakes up startled

Regen: I wasn't asleep

Rusty: Sure babes, anyways you wanted to see me

Regen: Yes I did, I want you to bring Hagatha to the interrogation room, I will be there in half an hour

Rusty; Of course babes, why in half an hour though?

Regen: I need to get dressed

Rusty: Cool, see ya later, bye

*Rusty speed walks out of the room, Chorus 2.0 holds up a sign that says 3/4 of an hour later and Regen runs into the interrogation room. The interrogation room has a desk in the centre which has a lamp sitting on it and 2 chairs either side of the desk. Hagatha is tied up to one chair and Rusty is sitting on the other chair.

Regen: Sorry I am late, I couldn't decide what to wear and then I couldn't find the right shoes to go with my outfit

Rusty: Don't worry about it, anyway lets get on with it. Hagatha, what did you do to Hugo?

Hagatha: Nothing dearie

Rusty: Okay she clearly hasn't done anything, case closed

Chorus 2.0: Nope, case open, wide open

Rusty: How come?

Chorus 2.0: You haven't interrogated her properly. All you have done is asked a pointless question.

Rusty: Wow I have been doing interrogations for 2 years, and how long have you been doing them for. Let me think... how about never. You have no right to criticise me!

Chorus 2.0: I have the right when you plan to let a potential criminal go after one question

Rusty: You think you know better don't you

Chorus 2.0: Yes I do

Rusty: So please take over oh wise one

Chorus: Okay I will, Hagatha where were you on the night of Hugo's disappearance?

Hagatha: I was on my way to my daughter's house, I went at night to beat the early morning traffic dearie

Chorus 2.0: Okay, did anyone run into you?

Hagatha: Oh yes a young man stumbled into me, he looked a bit tipsy so I offered him a bottle of milk from my basket.

Chorus 2.0: Then what happened?

Hagatha: Well the poor man passed out on the floor, I didn't know what to do, so I shouted for help and my dear friend Eisen came and helped me put him in an alleyway. After that Eisen escorted me to my daughter's house and then left

Chorus 2.0: I believe everything except for the part about the bottle of milk

*Chorus 2.0 shines the lamp on Hagatha's face

Chorus 2.0: I know you tried to poison Hugo

Hagatha: How do you know that dearie?

Chorus 2.0: I was there when you did it

* Everyone gasps

Hagatha: How? I never saw you

Chorus 2.0: With magic

* Everyone gasps

Hagatha: I knew I should have checked that bottle, so what are you going to do with me?

Chorus 2.0: I will let you go free on the condition that you help me and Regen

Hagatha: Okay, what do you need help with?

Chorus 2.0: Turning Prince back into Hugo

Regen: what?

Chorus 2.0: I should have told you sooner but Hugo is Prince, this whole time you have been sleeping with Hugo in dog form

*Regen faints and Rusty runs over to help

Hagatha: (to the chorus) I will help you turn Hugo human but we'll need a few things
