A grand palace dining room. Silverware and candles are set upon a long table. Servants move silently, serving food. No one speaks. Quiet classical music flows through the air.
Looking around the table The dignity of the imperial family begins at the dining table. Straighten your backs. Do not let your utensils make a sound. Everyone begins their meal in silence.
While eating, looking at Sophie Today's cabinet meeting looks like it will run long.
