(Scene: Later, same day, in the throne room. Jo is flopped on a random ledge, looking overheated and half-asleep. So does just about everyone else in the room, including Jareth and the group of people he's meeting with.)
Jo: Damn, it's hot...
(Abruptly there is the sound of someone humming, and Gabriel skips into the room, hopping up onto a ledge. She has a fresh orange popsicle, which is stuffed halfway into her mouth. Cheerfully oblivious to everything, she sits and sucks on the popsicle. After removing it for a moment to breathe, she licks at the popsicle, then shoves it back in her mouth, so that most of it is engulfed. Everyone else in the room is staring at her.)
Gabriel: (mouth full) Hmmm hmmm...hm hmm hm hm hmmm...
(Jo slowly starts to make a face. Jareth twitches uncomfortably. Gabriel is oblivious. Fifteen minutes pass. Jo is now really making a face. Jareth looks highly nervous. Gabriel is still oblivious. Finally Jo hops off her ledge, walks over to Gabriel's, and climbs up next to her, tapping Gabriel on the shoulder.)
Gabriel: (mouth full) Hm?
Jo: Whisper whisper whisper whisper.
(Gabriel turns bright red, swallows hard, and pulls the popsicle stick out of her mouth.)
Gabriel: (very embarrassed) Really?
Jo: (solemn) Mm-hm.
Gabriel: (very, very embarrassed) Oh. I think I'll leave now.
(She hops down off the ledge and slinks into Jareth's room, blushing furiously. Jareth stares at the bare popsicle stick she left behind, then excuses himself, saying that he needs to go take a cold shower. Scroll to a chalkboard behind the throne. There is another point there for Jo and Gabriel.)
