:30:00
And Horace is so nasty.
:30:03
He's odd, but he's not so bad
when you get to know him.
:30:06
And he has his own laboratory.
:30:07
Where he collects monsters
and pickles them in jars?
:30:10
- Yes.
- Think what he'd do to It.
:30:12
Er... yes. Good point.
:30:14
Don't mention It in front of the pickler.
:30:17
What are you whispering about?
And what's It?
:30:21
- Ah... well...
- Er...
:30:23
It...
:30:24
It's a game of hide-and-seek. You're it.
:30:26
You count to a thousand while we hide.
:30:29
A thousand? Isn't it usually 20?
:30:32
Well, it's such a big house
and Jane and I are only girls...
:30:36
Oh, fine.
:30:38
One, two, three...
:30:41
I hated saying, "We are only girls. "
:30:42
- Where are you going?
- Here's a clue.
:30:44
- It rhymes with "hand hairy".
C YRIL: Oh, no.
:30:47
No way. We're not going back.
:30:48
You saw all the trouble that wish got us into.
:30:51
Oh, look, this must be the pole
that's been sticking up Cyril's...
:30:54
Back off! You can insult me all you like, but...
:30:57
Thanks, but I'll save that for later.
:30:59
I'm going, whether you're coming or not.
:31:06
Hand hairy...?
:31:09
Hand hairy?
:31:14
Sand-fairy.
:31:16
Oh, pendulous expression,
furrowed brow - bad news?
:31:19
- This letter from your publisher.
- Yes, yes. Immaterial.
:31:23
Impact inconsequential.
:31:24
They want to make big changes to your book.
:31:26
- They do?
- Yes.
:31:27
Difficult Sums For Children isn't catchy enough.
:31:30
- Catchy?
- They're suggesting a new title.
:31:33
Counting The Fun With Charlie Chicken.
:31:36
They're replacing you with a chicken.
:31:38
- Ridiculous.
- Of course it is.
:31:40
We must write back and tell them.
:31:41
Give me the name of the chicken
and the address of his coop.
:31:44
No, no, your publishers.
You can't have a counting chicken.
:31:47
Of course not. Can't count without fingers.
:31:50
No use. Oh, I suppose he could use wings.
:31:52
No, that's silly. He'd only get to two.
:31:54
Unless... er...
:31:56
Noah managed two by two.
:31:58
Gosh, that flood must have been
a terrible setback.
