For the grocer	Mr Hyde reads to the family	Is good!	You must ask Uncle Chris about the dowry!
What kind of man are you?	Uncle Chris, does it have to hurt this much?	You can see Dagmar tomorrow.	You're not eating.
Keep the nickel.	Mr Hyde takes his leave of Mama.	Uncle Elizabeth!	Who wants Coffee Sugar?
What are you getting for graduation?	For our grown up daugther.	You drink with me.	My Arne.
The most handsome Norgwegian baby!	I brought twelve manuscripts	And that's how it all started.	But first, and foremost, I remember Mama.
