Transcript:
Phoebe: Mom, you took my unicorn! Marigold: Oh, hello, Phoebe. Mom: I HAD to paint her. Marigold: And I HAD to pose. I have posed for innumerable grand tapestries. I have always prided myself on my posing skills! Phoebe: So you're saying you're a poser? Marigold: I am saying I am a MAGNIFICENT poser.

Ba doom ching! I love how Savvy Phoebe is. Also, her parents totally look like people who would name a child Phoebe, creative, but nerdy, down to earth folk.
I don’t think there are any spelling rules when it comes to a pun. :p

I saw her in the Cloisters tapestry in NYC. Very famous unicorn, Marigold is.

I do see that Phoebe’s Mom has painted a proper unicorn, horn and all. But being a painting, It doesn’t have to be boring-ized for the masses.
I wonder what a photograph would show…

Check the Bass cartoon production of ‘’The Last Unicorn’’ for getting that shimmer in all kinds of lighting effects for both the equine and the human forms of the unicorn.

This is one of the only times I’ve seen where Phoebe actually has the last laugh on a clueless Marigold, even if Marigold technically has the last word.
