Snoops, you don't have a way with children. You must gain their confidence. Make them like you.
Snoops Yeah? How do you do that?
You force them to like you, idiot! At the next low tide, I'm going to put her down there myself, and keep her there, until she finds it. And it is as simple as that!
Snoops Oh, as simple as that, is it? Well, you're the boss, boss.
Yes.
Snoops Welsher! Swindler! Chiseler!
Shut up, Snoops! And don't move. If either of you try to follow me, you'll get BLASTED!
Teddy goes with me, my dear. I've become quite attached to him.
Who could be ringing at this time of night? [answers; kindly] Madame Medusa's Pawn Shop Boutique.
Snoops Hello, Boss!
Snoops! Don't tell me, Snoops. Let me guess! You've found it! [laughs like crazy] You've found the diamond!
Snoops Snoops Bottles? What bottles? [seethes] You caught Penny sending messages... in BOTTLES?! [lividly] You blundering fool! Can't you control a little girl?! SHUT UP! I am taking the next flight down to Devil's Bayou! [hangs up hard in a huff and prepares to pack her bags]
She's insane. Utterly mad.
I want that diamond. I've got to have the Devil's Eye! You didn't leave the girl down in the cave long enough.
Mr. Snoops She won't take orders.
You are too soft!
Mr. Snoops But the water was rising and the tide was coming in, and all she did down there was fuss about her teddy bear getting wet.
Snoops, you don't have a way with children. You must gain their confidence. Make them like you.
Mr. Snoops Yeah? How do you do that?
You force them to like you, idiot! At the next low tide, I'm going to put her down there myself, and keep her there, until she finds it. And it is as simple as that!
Mr. Snoops Oh, as simple as that, is it? Well, you're the boss, boss.
Yes.
Brutus! Nero! Stop that infernal racket! I mean now! [whacks Brutus and Nero on the head, causing Bernard to tumble helplessly and look dizzy, then screams in alarm at the sight] Aah! Snoops! Snoops, a mouse! Oh, kill it, kill it! Kill, Snoops, kill it! [Snoops obeys and swings at Bernard and inadvertently breaks the chair apart while Miss Bianca climbs out and joins Bernard before Medusa screams in alarm at the next sight] There’s another one! [when Bernard and Bianca flee, and as Snoops attempts to squash them with his broom, Medusa shoots with a shotgun to send the two mice fleeing in fright] Oh, what is wrong with this thing? Snoops, what’s wrong?
Mr. Snoops I don’t… [the shot mistakenly hits his hair and sends Bernard and Bianca scurrying out into the river below]
Who could be ringing at this time of night? [answers; kindly] (Hello?) Madame Medusa's Pawn Shop Boutique.
Mr. Snoops Hello, Boss!
Snoops! Don't tell me, Snoops. Let me guess! You've found it! [laughs like crazy] You've found the diamond! [Mr. Snoops speaks indistinctly through the phone; in annoyance] Give you time? You bungler! You have been down there for three months! [Mr. Snoops indistinctly continues; firmly] Bottles? What bottles? [seethes] You caught Penny sending messages in bottles?! [enraged] You blundering fool! Can't you control a little girl?! SHUT UP! I am taking the next flight down to Devil's Bayou! [hangs up in outrage, picks up her suitcase and opens it, and storms off to get her stuff, leaving Bernard to fall over, and causing objects to collapse on top of Bianca]
This is terrible. We've got to go with her.
Yeah, come on. In the suitcase. [climbs into the suitcase]
Bumbling boob. He fouls up everything. Leave him for a few weeks and… [scoffs and puts on her purple coat while Bianca tries to get in with Bernard, but ends up falling out; tries to close her suitcase] Oh, why won't this stupid thing close?! [finally closes her trunk, then leaves Bianca out]
