Cindy Latoon's Private Pain: Gemstone Exam
Storyboard Text
- I have an exam on gemstones.
- Hey, mom. Can you help me?
- I have lots of those.... sure!
- With what?
- "Gemstones for beginners"? Is that our work material?
- No, dearie. It's just a silly green book among other silly books.
- I'll be teaching you.
- Oh the agony.....
- WATCH YOUR TONGUE!
- Which color?
- Why, the brown ones that line this purse!
- Our first gem will be the diamond!
- Y'know....
- These gems have a funny story too... I asked for clear but the jeweler was like no.
- This one fell off, so I'll demonstrate with it. If you want a starter fact, they look great on people of color!
- According to this book, all diamonds being colorless, is a misconception. This actually the most common natural diamond color!
- This is common??
- Oooh the largest faceted diamond is called The Golden Jubilee! That's a cool name!
- Hmm, now it's part of the crown jewels of Thailand! Mom, can we go see it?
- DIE COMMMON SCUM!
- Wow , she's really not paying attention! We can't go see the crown jewels of Thailand!
- Oh lord, please destroy most of the brown diamonds so they are not common. Amen.
- Maybe I'll learn about a couple other diamonds.... rare ones. Okay, let's see.
- How about red? The rarest type. And green? Green is pretty rare too.
- I have some of those! Wait here!
- YOU OWN A RED DIAMOND!!??? BUT THEY'RE SO RARE!
- Here they are. One green diamond and one red diamond.
- But.... I was studying!
- What is she talking about? Red diamonds are the least common diamond, they can sell for up to one million dollars per karat, and most of them have been found in the Argyle mine, and they can't be found in any jewelry store, really.
- Red diamonds can be found at almost any jewelry store! They're the most common diamond, and have a value of ten dollars!
- Oh, cool. Most green diamonds only have a thin layer of green and have another shade such as yellow, blue,or grey. This book is a way better teacher than mom. Hmm, wow. People trying to create the green color have used RADIATION! RADIATION! Wow I wonder if mom's green diamond necklace is safe.
- What are you doing? I was just going to talk about green diamonds!
