He sighs, sadly. "Yes, of course. I thought you would say that. But it is true: I am often unappreciated. It is a sadness of people such as myself. You see, if I were to make this request, I would be questioned. Valentine, why are you doing this? Valentine, why would we listen to you? Valentine, your ideas, we do not respect them, for we do not understand your value as a scholar, we are without the capacity for this understanding, and so on, and so on, and so on--but you? You are liked and respected by these simple and straightforward people, and if you were to make this request? You would be heard, instantly."
He snaps his fingers. Instant.
"It can only be you, mademoiselle, that does the asking. It is essential to this project that you do."
