Children from village: He's here! He's here! The groom is here!
Villagers: Hurry. Let us prepare.
Childre: Hurry up! I wanna see him. I wanna see Atka.
Children from village: Nita, he's here!
Nita's Father: They're here! Prepare for the ceremony.
Nita: He must have brought his entire village with him.
Aunt Siqiniq: Well, my sweet, this marriage is extremely important.
Aunt Taqqiq: That's why we came to help you get ready.
Nita: No, no. That's OK. I can get myself ready.
Aunt Taqqiq: Go ahead. Use all the water. Then we'll just air-dry your hair.
Aunt Siqiniq: Air-dry? Certainly not. Towel-dry is shinier.
Nita: You know...
Aunt Siqiniq: We'll put your hair up to show off your beautiful eyes.
Aunt Taqqiq: Up? No, down, of course, to frame that beautiful face.
Aunt Siqiniq: No. We'll put it up to show it off better.
Aunt Taqqiq: Down.
Aunt Siqiniq: Up.
Aunt Taqqiq: I am going to say "down."
Aunt Taqqiq: She's nervous. She needs to eat. I'll get some smoked salmon.
Aunt Siqiniq: Salmon? On a nervous stomach? She needs hackberry root steeped in rainwater.
Aunt Taqqiq: In the morning? No.
Nita: No, no, I'm fine. I think I'll feel better when I'm dressed.
Aunt Taqqiq and Aunt Siqiniq: Dressed?
Aunt Taqqiq: I have just the outfit for you.
Nita: But you don't understand. I already have one picked out.
