"Infant Phenomenon!"
"Infant humbug" is more to the point!

:51:05
She has been 10 for the past 8 years!
:51:10
They keep her on a diet of gin and water
to hold back her growth.

:51:13
- You don't say!
- I do say, sir. I do!

:51:16
That hammy sprawler keeps the rest of us
from doing our specialties.

:51:21
Mine is the Highland Fling.
:51:24
Would you like to see it?
:51:27
Please.
:51:34
Ladies and gentlemen...
:51:36
based on the receipts
Mrs. Crummles has shown me...

:51:39
Liverpool has little relish...
:51:42
for high-minded theatrical entertainments
properly conducted.

:51:47
We must give them our pity.
:51:53
Now, we must give them something
they will pay to see.

:51:56
Romeo and Juliet.
:51:58
But we have no Romeo.
Mr. Leadville's leg is broke.

:52:04
I don't mind! I can manage!
:52:09
Old friend...
:52:11
it may be time
for you to move on from Romeo.

:52:15
Move on?
:52:16
To what?
:52:19
Lear?
:52:21
Mr. Nickleby will take that part.
:52:24
And do you not think his friend
would make a smashing apothecary?

:52:33
His face practically erupts with drama!
:52:38
What an acquisition!
:52:40
These speeches! Listen to this.
:52:43
"Oh, that I were a glove upon that hand...
:52:46
"that I might touch that cheek."
:52:48
Are you worried
about how to memorize so much?

:52:51
I am, and I have barely a word to say!
:52:54
It is not only that...
:52:55
but a desire to know someone
to whom I could say such things.
