Gabriel is on the basketball court of my "ei" location. He is playing hard with his team, sweating and breathing heavily. Suddenly, trumpets sound and a Prince, with all of his entourage, march onto the court. One of the servants places a silk-covered chair and stool in front of Gabriel. He politely gestures for him to sit down. Gabriel touches the upholstery with pleasure, and happily sits down. Immediately, the Prince kneels before him and gestures for Gabriel to GIVE him his foot. Gabriel is reluctant, but the Prince continues to urge him to do so. Finally, Gabriel agrees, and gives him his foot. The Prince looks hopeful, and brings out the glass slipper. Unfortunately, the shoe doesn't fit. The Prince GIVES Gabriel a disappointed look. Gabriel shrugs his shoulders, and jumps into the Prince's arms. They live happily ever after.

In the lounge of the (-ei) restaurant, Greg spies a young child playing with the Silk Scarf of its parent. (This is not how you treat Silk!) Greg hurries over, GIVING the child a set of Legos toplay with instead.
Parent GIVES Greg a grateful look.
"Maybe no silk scarves for while?"
