Shadazzle 1.01 - Jemima

I'll get it! You've no idea how stressed I've been lately. It's a miracle my hair isn't coming out in clumps. Well, you are planning a wedding, I imagine it's been stressful around here. It's mad, I hardly get any free time to myself anymore. I can barely keep up with the housework. If it's that bad, why don't you hire a maid or something? I wish we could, but... It's not really an option. Why not? Well, don't tell Fred, okay? He's far too proud... But we've been a bit short lately and I don't think we can afford it. Oh, right. A part-time maid can't cost that much, can it? It would be nice, I just don't think it's gonna work. What's all this about a maid? Oh, Alex was just suggesting that we get one, but I told her it wasn't necessary. Really? I think it's a wonderful idea. You do? Of course! But can we really— Don't fret, Florence! We shall hire a maid! Well, if you think so... We shall start interviewing applicants immediately. I'm sorry, what was your name again? My name Jemima. I clean. Do you have good cleaning skills? I clean. Who was your previous employer? Sorry, I speak no good English. I clean? Well, if you get the job, yes. I get job? Possibly... I get job. Well, you're confident. I bit psychic. Right... We'll be in touch. ...And there's no way you can—I see. Well, thanks anyway. Oh dear, not another one? Yep. Last one. Final option. Well, not the FINAL option... ...Jemima? Did you know that Prince William had gotten married? Yes, dear, it was all over the television. [Crashing sound] [Thud] [Smashing sound] Ah! Jemima! Miss-a Fred? We weren't expecting you for another hour! How did you get in? Door stuck. That looks like a lot of bags. Yes... Perhaps she got the wrong idea from the ad. We can't let her stay. No. We should go up there and tell her. Yes. What are we going to say? I don't know... Perhaps we should let her stay. Just for a while. Get to know her before we kick her onto the streets. Maybe... I suppose so. [Smashing sound] Jemima? What was that? Nothing! I clean! Should we go up there? Nah. You heard her. She clean. Hi, it's Florence. I've been thinking about it and... I'll take the job. Fred, dear, don't you think we ought to do something about... Well... About Jemima? If it would make you feel better, we could hire a handyman? Yes, that would make me feel better. I know it's stupid, and I've tried to get over it, it's just... Easier said than done. Florence, is there something you want to tell me? No, I don't think so. Do you, like, want some help or something? No, I find own way out. I don't know what to do, Jemima. What should I do? So, George seems nice. He's probably just after money. He's always after money. Why are you doing this? What are we going to do about the wedding now? We'll figure something out.
