Oh wonderful to see you my god you were

just a little boy and here you are yes

here we are

thank you for arranging all this for me

hello madam and welcome home thank you

[Music]

good God

everything's still here look em in the

couch where mother would curl up and

read and look there her sewing basket

the bookcase

fathers armchair

and I wonder I wonder

yes exactly in place my first love

chrissake

well never mind it can be fixed

well here it is darling but I don't want

you to feel as if you're in a museum if

you see anything you don't like we'll

change it this is our house now you know

I only lived here until I was four my

one real attachment was that you dream

now Mary will help you with the

housework this is a very big house and

you were supposed to be getting your

strength back and Paul your age come on

and let me hope I'm in your condition

when I get to be your age well can't you

go

Kathy Kathy where are you going up to my

room daddy oh let her go George

come on let's unpack our things

[Music]

to see the way she acted when she came

in

I mean Kathy how comfortable she seemed

to be in their room in the whole house

for that matter and in the place she's

never seen before well maybe you'd like

it better if she were upset

well would you what are you talking

about George

it's getting pretty ridiculous you know

and I know that I've had a nervous

breakdown right well it's not hereditary

and it isn't catching the way you go

around analyzing everything Kathy says

it does it's too much George darling you

don't understand my feelings are just

the opposite I'm just delighted to see

Kathy with so much confidence and I'm

thrilled because she seems to feel so at

home here that's all I meant

maybe I expressed myself badly I'm sorry

if I've upset you

what are you doing nothing nothing at

all

taking up hold on darling your women are

coming to your rescue

[Music]

[Music]

Jack and Jill up the hill to fetch a

pail of water Jack fell down and broke

his crown and Jill came after Jack and

Jill went up the hill I had a feeling

someone's watching even the garbage

well it must have been a dog or a cat I

can't see anything now you really wanted

me to go out there and take a look

around

vivianne look what I found three spies

please repeat what you told me is he

just taking a walk and when we were just

taking a walk in my backyard looking for

you

I'm so sorry please excuse them but

Walter brings them here every chance he

gets and he knows it's forbidden it

doesn't matter at all a large garden can

be very tempting let me introduce my

family my wife Vivian our daughter Kathy

and I'm George George Kimball how do you

do

we're just moving in I'm Margaret Burton

your neighbor and this is Geraldine

Walter and Peter hey Cathy I can see

you'll be having lots of fun with this

merry crew you'd like that wouldn't you

Cassie

yeah I've got an idea why don't you drop

by tomorrow afternoon we can get

acquainted and the children too splendid

thank you very much come children move

[Music]

mommy I'm tired

mommy's little help was tired and would

you go upstairs and lie down

[Applause]

[Applause]

[Music]

why don't you want to see anymore

[Music]

ah Kathy you could have answered me you

know what's that filthy rag look at

those hands go wash them before the

Burton children get here and get rid of

that disgustingness otherwise someone

might get locked in there I'm so pleased

to see Kathy we'll have some new friends

to play with your home is perfectly

charming I should warn you Hagia that

has an absolute passion for anything

happiness booth past you tell Vivian if

you listened to my regret long enough

she'll convinced you that I'm not

exactly normal

Oh you know I'd never say anything like

that but Agatha is the only person I

know who can make inanimate objects talk

making animate objects talk what do you

mean it's actually quite simple

every object animate or inanimate has

its own story its own history in fact

now when a medium is present Agatha is a

medium yes it's true that's why I'm so

attracted to all things they have

experienced so much they tell me so much

take for example that photograph over

there

it's a picture of my husband his father

I never met him okay

you'll be the little girl and your

father's taking you it's really okay

repeat after me are we going to look for

money don't talk to me about your money

all women are b*tches repeat all women

are b*tches

watch out daddy here's a rabbit no no

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

your eyes hurt don't they well it's

perfectly natural

you've been burnt in a fire just wait a

minute and I'll make it stop her

[Applause]

[Music]

what's going on here answer me answer me

we have to leave mommy right now

what an afternoon I'm sorry excuse me

but I think the factory needs the better

of me for all of us anyway thanks for

the coffee

I have a feeling the children have

brought themselves into a situation they

just couldn't handle I hope this

demonstration of mine hasn't upset you

it's very strange though I usually have

a much harder time getting smooth but

thanks photo well never mind I must be

going now

it's been very nice meeting you Vivian I

hope I shall see you again sometime soon

well it's been quite an experience to

say the least I'd do drop by again and

next time you're in the neighborhood

I'll bye for now

Kathy are you gonna tell me what went on

here

[Applause]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

they're now sneaker what's the matter

easy

easy now calm down you don't feel quite

at home yet

[Applause]

wasn't very good
