With the gentlemen's chorus, of course.
2:23:06
A chorus of fat leeches.
2:23:08
- Leeches?
- Yes!

2:23:10
No, they'd be gentlemen.
2:23:12
They'd be in their carriages
and they'd be rushing across the stage.

2:23:16
The horses would be
galloping across the stage...

2:23:18
...with the ladies chasing after them
to talk to them...

2:23:22
...but they wouldn't be listening,
they'd be far too busy.

2:23:27
Hmm.
2:23:28
Expensive to stage.
2:23:31
And there'd be dozens of doors...
2:23:33
...and ticking clocks on the stage.
2:23:35
He's made a vow to give her the key...
2:23:38
...but he never does.
2:23:40
Who might "he" be?
2:23:44
Well, he's her husband, I suppose.
2:23:46
The hero.
2:23:49
No, not the hero.
2:23:51
Anyway.
2:23:52
One day...
2:23:54
No.
2:23:56
Late one night...
2:23:58
...she suddenly decides to try the door...
2:24:01
...and it opens!
2:24:03
Ah. So it wasn't locked after all.
2:24:06
And she climbs up the stairs...
2:24:09
...and there, on the sands...
2:24:11
...are hundreds of nannies
all pushing empty perambulators about!

2:24:28
And every time she tries to be born...
2:24:32
...he strangles her with her umbilical cord.
2:24:54
I shouldn't imagine
Sullivan'd much care for "that".
