Lickboot
[Discussing Robyn Starling]
Just pray the police find her, or we're doomed to return to the ranks of the peasantry. And you'd better hope this rumor that dashing Daddy Starling may have survived the avalanche is just a rumor, or we'll be worse than ordinary. We'll be...
Aunt Pristine Figg
Don't say it!
Lickboot
Poor.
Aunt Pristine Figg
Penniless!
Lickboot
Bankrupt!
Aunt Pristine Figg
No more m-money?
Lickboot
[In a sinister tone]
We've got to have– money!
Tom
[Tom is walking along the corridor when Jerry, holding the crumpled telegram, runs past him on his way to Robyn's bedroom. Tom catches up to Jerry.]
Hold it! [Picks Jerry up] What's the big rush? [Drops Jerry, then catches him]
Jerry
[Holds the telegram up in Tom's face]
Read this. Robyn's father is alive.
Tom
"Daddy–" [Reads the telegram] "Tibet"? [Continues reading the telegram] Hey! She's not an orphan no more!
[Tom grabs the telegram from Jerry, drops him, and runs up to Robyn's bedroom. Jerry runs after him.]
Robyn
[Tom, Jerry, and Robyn arrive at Robyn's nest.]
There it is. There's the cabin, daddy built it just for me. We come up here every summer. He taught me to swim, and sail, and fish. Daddy will know where to find me, maybe he's here already. I bet he is. [Ties the boat to the dock, Robyn runs up the cabin stairs and enter the cabin] Daddy?
Aunt Pristine Figg
[A dark figure turns on an oil lamp, which reveals to be Aunt Figg]
Daddy– is dead.
Robyn
[Screams in terror]
AAAAAAAAAAAAH! TOM! JERRY! HELP!
Lickboot
[Lickboot closes the door, leaves poor Tom, Jerry, and Ferdinand outside, and locks the door.]
And if you know what's good for you. You'll never run away again. Never.
Robyn
You're not taking back! You'll never take me back!
Lickboot
[Grabs Robyn by the wrist]
Oh, yes we will!
Robyn
[Screams in fear]
AAAAHH!
Lickboot
[Kicked my knees]
Ow, why, you little!
Aunt Pristine Figg
[The oil lamp gets knocked as the cabin is caught on fire.]
You fools! Look what you’ve done! Lickboot, grab the girl and let’s get out of here!
Lickboot
Robin, the house is burning down, you must get out before it's too late!
Robyn
No! No, I won't go with you! You'll never take me back! [Screams in alarm] AAAAAGHHH!
Aunt Pristine Figg
Lickboot, let’s get out of here before we all fry!
Lickboot
But the girl.
Aunt Pristine Figg
Forget her! We got to save ourselves!
