Winning London Page #6

I guess we're not third wheels any more.

I guess not.

Any chance I can get some of this on tape?

Dylan!

Just asking.

Youre ridiculous.

- I know about you and the girl.

- What of it?

I hope you're not losing sight

of what's important.

She's what's important.

Do you think she's staying up at night

writing soppy love notes?

No, she's got her eye on the gold.

Can't you see, she's getting in your way?

Good night, Father.

Chloe Lawrence?

- Es.

- For you ma'am.

Thank you.

James got in a fight with his father.

He wants me to meet him.

You can't go now.

What if you don't make it back in time?

You guys can manage without me.

Hello? There's a trophy calling your name

in the next room.

And for the first time, Riles...

...I just don't hear it.

Wait.

- Where's Chloe?

- She has a stomachache.

- What?

- A fever.

She thinks she has the flu.

- Great.

- Well, that's great.

Okay, you know what? It's up to you four.

Youve got to step up to the plate,

right here.

Bring it in.

- ''Game on'' on three. One, two, three.

- Game on!

You don't think anything happened to him?

Youre right. He's fine.

- Did you get everything?

- Es.

Well, they're about to start, James.

Remember, strong finish.

Hold on.

- What are you doing here?

- What do you mean?

- Where's Chloe?

- Like you don't know.

Where is she?

You tell me.

Youre the one who sent her the note.

What note?

It was on your stationery.

He wouldn't stand me up, I know it.

You didn't believe that I could win it

on my own?

So you sent her off

on some wild goose chase.

Youll thank me for this someday.

If you don't tell me where she is...

...Im marching up to that podium,

and disqualifying myself and my team.

He's not coming, is he?

Delegates, we have arrived

at the final day of competition...

... which will be divided into two parts:

First, the question and answer session...

... to test your knowledge

of your assigned country.

Second, the oral essay...

... where one member of the delegation

will represent your team.

United Kingdom.

Are you ready to proceed

with the final round Q and A?

I know you can't talk, but...

...was a pretty blonde girl waiting here?

Thank you.

One of the world's largest trading powers.

That was a historic peace agreement

with Ireland in 1998.

Prime Minister is appointed.

No, the Queen is politically neutral.

That would be Queen Victoria in 1887.

The economy's among the four largest

in Western Europe.

The dominant industrial

and maritime power of the 19th century.

That would be Queen Elizabeth I in 1603.

That would be Henry Vlll, ''I am, I am.''

Chloe.

Come on. We're late.

Non of us have ever given

the oral essay before.

We're doomed.

Okay guys, fourth and goal.

The game's on the line.

- Riley, you take the ball.

- I'm in.

Next up, United Kingdom.

Good luck, Riles.

Wait.

It's her turn.

Miss Lawrence. Your question.

Is there a place for the British monarchy

in the 21st century?

The royals are in big trouble

with their subjects.

Talk to the cabbie down at Trafalgar or...

... the shopkeeper in Soho,

and they'll tell you.

The royal family is too stuffy...

... out of touch, aloof.

Too removed from ordinary people

and their ordinary problems.

There's a growing movement

in this country to make the royals...

... less royal.

Because the downside to having

kings and queens and lords and ladies...

... is believing that birthright

makes you better than everyone else.

It doesn't.

So, should we dump the royal family?

Talk to that same cabbie

or shopkeeper, and chances are...

... they'll bite your head off

for even suggesting it.

Being part of a country

is like being part of a family.

Just because we complain doesn't mean

they don't have a place in our hearts.

The Queen still represents Britain

in a uniquely British way.

And I, for one,

would feel a little lost without her.

Thank you.

We've finally come to the end

of our competition and our conference.

It's been quite a wild ride,

to say the very least.

But that is the road of diplomacy,

as you've seen firsthand...

There are no easy answers

to the world's problems.

Creative solutions and creative people

make the world go round.

And that leads me to my first award.

The Crystal Dove.

In Model U.N. Speak,

it's the most valuable player.

From the beginning

she has gotten results...

... she has demonstrated ingenuity

and integrity.

For these reasons and many more...

... the Crystal Dove

goes to Miss Riley Lawrence.

Thank you.

I've never won anything in my life.

Well done.

Now for the moment

you've all been waiting for.

It is my honor and great pleasure

to announce the winner...

... of our competition

and the first place trophy.

First place with 347 points goes to...

... United Kingdom!

In second place, Ireland.

Third place, China.

Congratulations everyone.

Congratulations. You played a good game.

I think I owe you an apology.

And I was thinking I owed you one myself,

Lord Browning.

Can we say we've leveled the polo field?

Absolutely.

I hope to see you at the manor very soon.

- You were amazing.

- What?

Awesome, incredible, spectacular!

Proper preparation prevents

poor performance. The five P's.

Okay, this is serious.

Let's go, I'm back. I'm back.

This isn't some Bruce Willis action film.

What's invisible and smells

like a little bitty worm?

James I.

Come on, Chloe, lighten up. Riley did...

Lighten up...

191... Sorry, I was off!

Wow, look at all the famous dead people.

Her Royal...

That's how I'll always think of you...

I so could not get into a girl

who didn't do sports. That wasn't the line.

Jesse, Jesse, Jesse, just...

James.

Jesse is quite a player.

Jesse is quite the polo player.

James is quite the polo...

To Jesse. Boy, guys. Jesse...

James, looking great out there.

What's invisible and smells like a worm?

What do you get...

What happens when you hang

from a mango tree?

What's the similar...

We can't negotiate with terrorists. It's...

It's definitely our turn.

Let's take them out.

Talk to the cabbie down Trafalgar or the...

... newscaster.

Lets take them out.

Okay.

He can't see me tonight.

He has to go to father with his dinner.

Was there a pretty blonde...

Was there a pretty blonde girl

waiting here?

Sorry, I completely missed that.

What does thou think

of the Dodgers this fortnight?

Me thinketh...

Is the clubroom up this way?

You kill me, man, you kill me.
