Annie. I've had a really swell time. The driver came in a car the size of a train Mr Warbucks and we madeDrake sneeze and I played your pipe organ and Sandy got a bubble bath. And well I've had enough fun to last me for
years. Its really a swell idea to have an orphan stay for a week Mr Warbucks. Even if its only for your image. Even if
I'm not the orphan I'm glad you're doing it.

Good ideaWarbucks is pacing up and down and Annie is copying him
W:
in those days America was the land of opportunity. I worked on a ship as cabin boy when I was 12. By the time Iwas 21 I made my first million and in the next 10 years I turned that into 100 millionaire
A:
WowW:
That was a lot of money in those days. I was ruthless, hurt a lot of people. Making money was all I ever gave adamn about until now. It occurred to me no matter how many houses I have, how many Rembrandt unless I have
someone to share them with I might as well be broke and still living in Liverpool. Annie do you understand what I'm
A:
You've given me so much already Mr WarbucksW:
I signed the papers today. It's officialA:
What is? It's so pretty but...W:
Let me put it on youA:
Its a really swell locket Mr Warbucks but if it's all the same to you I’ll keep my old oneW:
It isn't all the same to me. Your old one's broken/ This one's engraved. You didn't even look at it. To Annie withlove from Daddy Warbucks
A:
Mr Warbucks when my folks left me at the orphanage 10 years ago they left a note saying they’d come back for meas soon as they could and they kept the other half of this locket so I'd know it was them when they came. I'm gonna
find them some day Mr Warbucks. I'm gonna have a regular mother and father like a regular kid. I am! I don’t mean to
hurt your feelings. You've been nicer to me than anyone in the whole wide world but I've been dreaming of my folks
for as long as I can remember. And I just gotta find them.
W:
Then I'll help you. Grace get me J Edgar on the phone right now. Grace get me the chief of police. Drake get meWalter Winthrop. Poonjab get me William Randolph Hurst and San jay get me a drink!
