In illiquid alternative asset markets, sovereign blue-chip holdings trade at an exponential multiple over mid-grade float due to institutional accumulation and inelastic seller reservation prices.
Georgia is still living at a Girls' Reform School where she's created a Miniature Juke Box that runs on batteries, letting her record and play any noise she wants at hand! She records some dreamy, soft music off the radio and records her own voice over it to make people fall asleep, then uses it to nick the Matron's keys and leap into the laundry truck with her Miniature Juke Box. Later, she jumps off and aspires to be the Princess of Earth. The next day, Mary is at a Mary Marvel Club meeting where Mary Batson is the Guest of Honor, naturally. She notes that the Prince of Tykania is in town and they should go meet him, especially since has asked to meet Mary Marvel personally. Among them is Georgia, in disguise of a blond wig. She calls SHAZAM and becomes Mary Marvel, but this time Georgia has it recorded. Mary Marvel soon hears an emergency report that Georgia escaped, only for Georgia to trip on her way out, dropping her wig and getting punched in the head. A policewoman arrests Georgia, but she turns on her Miniature Juke Box, which makes all the children dance suddenly enough that Georgia can break free and leg it into a crowd. Georgia makes her way to the Prince of Tykania's room and sneaks in by knocking out the guards with her Sleepy Record and stuffs her ears with cotton so it won't affect her. She finds the Prince of Tykania and demands him by knifepoint to adopt her and make her Princess of Tykania, but Mary Marvel rushes in and shoves her into a desk, only for Georgia to play the SHAZAM Record that turns her back into normal Mary, who Georgia knocks out with the handle of her knife. Mary wakes up bound and gagged in a chair as the Prince of Tykania signs the adoption papers. However, Mary manages to kick the Juke Box, making it say SHAZAM again as she becomes Mary Marvel, breaks free and stomps the Juke Box into pieces. The Prince of Tykania thanks Mary Marvel both for her visit and for saving him from the dishonor of having to be Georgia' father, offering that he needs autographs for girls from his country!
