[George Banks has just been discharged]
Well, Banks - have you anything to say for yourself?
Well, sir, they say that when you have nothing to say, all you can say is...

(He feels something in his pocket, takes it out, and looks at it: Michael's tuppence. He starts to laugh)
Confound it, Banks! I said do you have anything to say!

DJ Mr. Dawes Jr
In 1773, an official on this bank unwisely loaned a large sum of money to finance a shipment of tea to the American colonies. Do you know what happened?
Yes, sir, I think I do. As the ship lay in Boston Harbor, a party the colonists dressed as red Indians boarded the vessel, behaved very rudely, and threw all the tea overboard, making the tea unsuitable for drinking. Even for Americans.
DJ Mr. Dawes Jr
Precisely. The loan was defaulted. Panic ensued within these walls. There was a run on the bank.
DS Mr. Dawes Sr.
From that time to this, sir, there has not been a run on this bank... UNTIL TODAY. A run, sir, caused by the disgraceful conduct of your son, do you deny it?
I want it to feed the birds.
DS Mr. Dawes Sr
Fiddlesticks, Boy. Feed the birds and what have you got? Fat birds.
