Well, Gilbert... What do you think?

Gilbert

My lady! You were not meant to notice me.
link
Manuela

Nobody could miss a good man like you.

Gilbert

My apologies for interrupting.

Gilbert

Please excuse me.

Manuela

No, Gilbert. Hold on a moment. You're not disturbing me. Truly.

Manuela

I want very much to know what you thought of my singing.
link
Manuela
volume_up

The least you can do is tell me.

Gilbert
volume_up

You were lovely. Y-you sounded lovely.
link
Manuela
volume_up

Lovely? Is that what you really feel? Please be honest.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Why would you suppose I was dishonest?
link
Manuela
volume_up

That is not the look of someone who just heard what they deem to be lovely.

Manuela

It hurts my confidence when my voice can't even lure a fleeting smile to your face.

Manuela
volume_up

It's as though my singing voice has died since stepping off the Mittelfrank stage...
link
Gilbert
volume_up

My lady Manuela, that could be no further from the truth.
link
Manuela

If that's the case, then, Gilbert, I challenge you to a duel!
link
Manuela
volume_up

My singing versus your iron mask. I will break through, and I will see passion in your eyes!

Why did she leave so suddenly?

And what could she have meant by a duel? Something is surely troubling her...
