A line from Baron Frankenstein

You think I'm an idiot, don't you? But I'm not! Anyone can see with half an eye that there's something wrong. And I have two eyes, and pretty good ones at that. Well, what is it?...What's the matter with my son? What's he doing?...Why does he go messing around an old ruined windmill when he has a decent house, a bath, good food and drink, and a darn pretty girl to come back to? Ha, will you tell me that?

I understand perfectly well. There's another woman — and you're afraid to tell me. Pretty sort of experiments these must be.

Baron Frankenstein
[toasting Henry and Elizabeth]

Here's to a very good health...to a son of the House of Frankenstein...Here's to jolly good health to Frankenstein.

Well, tell them to unprepare.

Oh, but such a lovely bride! And such a fine young man, the very image of his father.

What do you suppose I'm here for, pleasure?
