Please make yourselves at home. Let me take your coats. Dinner's almost ready. I hope you brought your appetite. Your house is lovely, Amand. Very interesting decor. Very Gothic. I think it's amazing. Oh, you have such good taste, Amand. I'm thinking of redecorating my house. Maybe you could give me a few pointers. It would be my pleasure. Please have a seat. Can I offer you a glass of wine? We would love some. Here you are. A very special Merlot. Brought directly from my home country. It has a unique ingredient, which gives it a pleasant aroma and a superior flavor. Mmm, it's delicious. It's a bit bitter for my taste. Almost tastes like... Like... Ellen. Ellen! Are you okay? Did she pass out? Yeah. I hope you didn't poison her drink too much. You'll ruin our meal.
