Ah, esto estas bien.
Well, this is nice.
Oh, yes.

Si, los dos solas.
Just the two of us.
Oh, yes, yes.
Si, bueno. Señora, hable mi de les hombres ingleses.
So tell me, Mrs. Queen, about Englishmen.
Well, they spend most of their time with animals, you know, and with other men. But, oh, when they do come to the women, they only want one thing!
[grinning] Que? Que?
And what is that?
Well, it’s a kind of pudding made of bread and butter and raisins, and, of course, the other thing...
Que el otro? Que el otro?
And what is the other thing?
[as though it's obvious] Oh, well, custard!
Crema!
[laughing] No...Edmundo; que tal es?
Edmund; what’s he like?
Well, I told you: this pudding...
No no no...
No?
En la cama! [put her hands together, resting them on her cheek]
No, what's he like in bed?
Oh. Well, in bed, he likes hot milk, with just a little touch of cinnamon.
No, no, no. [concentrating on the words] What is he like?
Oh. Well, he's like a little rabbit, really.
Conejo?! [giggles about this] Mama, mama, cuanto le quiero! [she hugs the Queen]
[popping up under their arms] Mummy, mummy, how much I love him!
