In its place, she wears a playful pair of shorts.She had really hoped that someone would notice, but the house is empty and gravely quiet, except for the sound of a low muttering coming from the bathroom.
It's Grenadine muttering to herself, having been sedated and placed in a bath.
Marie offers her a magazine to take her mind off her obvious woes, but Grenadine only snarls at the dutiful maid, rejecting the In Touch that might have eased her worries.
