00:23She's the greatest little oddity we've ever had here.
00:25Oh, I don't know, Miss Dame.
00:26Even her clothes are fit for an Easter fair.
00:30Oh, come you spirits that tend of mortal thought. Unsex me here.
00:41Whosoever loveth not, knoweth not God. For God is.
00:47Love.
00:48Besides, I don't believe a minister would stoop to such a sordid intrigue with a child of fifteen.
00:53Laura, what's been happening at that school?
00:55What do you mean?
00:56I'm going to tell them everything about you. About this awful dress and about your horrid mother working in a horrid post office and doing dressmaking.
01:02And I'll tell them your mother's a drunk.

01:30I can't see the girl in a void.
01:32Well, we don't talk about it.
01:37By the way.
01:40I love the man to save me!
01:45Subher him.
01:48Wait a minute!
01:50Trumsey, girl. Trumsey, out of my sight.
02:13Girl, another trashy novel.
02:15I shall miss you.
02:18Very much.
02:20I shall miss you.
