Sometimes it doesn't matter how much things are done with good intentions, you can still be "sent to hell", so to speak. One key version of this was Juliet's Skype with the French Government after her conversion. While most of it was unintelligible due to almost all of it being in French, when she suddenly became angry and started swearing in French at the person who was talking with her, it was clear that he had suggested something she wasn't happy about, but didn't have much of a choice.
"I don't really know France's policies on things like 'dancing' or casinos," said a PR-MD agent later, "But what is clear is that France wants to do something similar to Lyre/Animalia for their own colony, but Juliet's not too happy about it."

Meanwhile there was a meeting at Animalia Ambassadoria about some plans for the summer, but there were a few confusing things.
"Why can't we see Juliet's manor house, if only as a picture?" asked Miles, a little surprised.
"For the same reason why Juliet brought all seven of her girls with her now." answered the PR-MD agent, "Her manor house is getting fumigated for bedbugs. So the entire mansion is enclosed in a fumigation tent"
"Oh, right." said Miles, remembering when a number of hotel chains had to be closed due to bedbug infestations.

Meanwhile two of the girls with severe learning disabilities that had arrived with Juliet had also undergone conversion. Fifi had become a skunk Animalian (as I already said) while another girl, Mia, had become a cat Animalian. Though why they chose "sexy maid" outfits from Miss Vivian's had a surprising explanation.
"I've been using cleaning my family's mansion as a means to teach my girls discipline." said Juliet, "It's just that they like helping out my real servants quite a bit."

Elsewhere, two PR-MD agents were discussing Miss Fabina's meeting with the "gyaru" girls that Ami had sent her as part of her new "Plastic Recycling" program.
"Why was Miss Fabina reluctant to meet with them?" asked one Agent.
"I think it was less that she didn't want to meet them," said the second, "and more that she didn't like the way they, what was the word she used... 'destroyed' their old selves to become 'gyaru'."
"It's scary what some people will do to themselves in order to achieve a certain look." said the first.
"I hear ya, man." agreed the second. "I once heard that, in order to achieve the 'flapper' look during the 1920s, some girls would resort to deliberately swallowing tapeworm eggs."
