A terrible thing has 'appened.
You're the son of the Mikado!

1:47:04
A terrible thing "has" happened!
You've become a cockney!

1:47:07
I thought one would suggest
something of his lowly station...

1:47:11
...being a cheap tailor and all.
1:47:13
Rubbish! We're in Japan,
not Stepney or Bow. Do it properly.

1:47:17
Oh. Very well.
1:47:19
Nonsense. A terrible thing has happened.
It seems you're the son of the Mikado.

1:47:25
Yes! But that happened some time ago.
1:47:28
Is this a time for airy persiflidge?
1:47:31
Persiflage, Grossmith.
1:47:32
- Is it?
- It is.

1:47:34
Is this a time for airy persiflage?
1:47:37
Doesn't sound right to me.
1:47:39
Persiflage, mirage, fromage.
1:47:42
- Decoupage.
- Exactly.

1:47:44
Your father is here...
1:47:47
...and with Ka-tisha.
1:47:49
- Katisha.
- It amuses me to say Ka-tisha.

1:47:52
It doesn't amuse me, Grossmith.
Nor does it scan.

1:47:56
My father? And with Katisha?!
1:47:59
Yes, he wants you particularly.
1:48:01
So does she.
1:48:06
- Ooh, but he's married now!
1:48:08
But bless my heart,
what has that to do with it?

1:48:11
Katisha claims me in marriage, but I can't
marry her because I'm married already.

1:48:18
Consequently,
she will insist on my execution...

1:48:21
...and if I'm executed,
my wife will have to be buried alive.

1:48:28
You see our difficulty.
1:48:31
- Yes, I don't know what's to be done.
- Make as to leave. Stop him.

1:48:36
There's one chance for you.
1:48:38
If you could persuade
Katisha to marry you...

1:48:41
...she would have no further claim on me.
1:48:44
And in that case, I could come to life
without any fear of being put to death.

1:48:49
I? Marry Katisha?
1:48:51
I really think it's the only course.
1:48:55
My good girl, have you seen her?
She's something awful.

1:48:58
- Appalling.
- Something appalling.
