"...Do you think you can get out of this trap, hero?" You laugh coldly, slowly, examining the trapped guy from head to toe. Marius is firmly chained to the wall. Covered in wounds, he no longer looks as intimidating as he did just a few minutes ago. "There is no turning back, it seems. The end of your story is here and now, and I will be the one to end it."

...If the script was correct, Marius himself should have interrupted your speech by now with his self-righteous protest. But he remains silent, his lilac eyes examining you with surprising concentration. Maybe you've missed something and the scriptwriter has edited this moment? Though it's hard to believe, judging by the incredulous, tired and annoyed looks on the staff's faces. Your script is right - Marius has just... missed his lines for the umpteenth time during the filming hours.

You give him a questioning look. This is the fifth time you've re-shot this scene, and you've never been able to get to the end, because von Hagen is too distracted. He's not usually like this.

As if coming out of a trance, the guy suddenly grinnes, looking away from your face a little embarrassed.

"..For such a hot villain, I am generally even willing to sacrifice the integrity of our universe. I can't resist you." he winks, to the exasperated groans of the staff.

What?

"No, well that's no good. Von Hagen, come to me after the technical break," comes the director's angry voice.

Marius doesn't look too thrilled about this as the staff gently removes the prop chains from his hands.
