A scene from Yellow Submarine 1968
Jeremy

Medic, pedic, zed oblique, orphic, morphic, dorphic, Greek. Ad hoc, ad loc and quid pro quo, so little time, ha-ha, so much to know!

John

Well, can you tell us where we're at?

Jeremy

A true Socratic query, that!

John

Oh yeah? And who the Billy Shears are you?

Jeremy

Who? Ah, who indeed am I? [hands out several business card to the Beatles]

John

'Jeremy'…

Paul

'Hillary'…

George

'Boob'…

Ringo

'P'hhhhhhd.'

All

Who?

Jeremy

Eminent physicist, polyglot, classicist, prize-winning botanist, hard-biting satirist, talented pianist. Good dentist too. Ha-ha!

George

Lousy poet.

Jeremy

Critic's voice, take your choice.

Ringo

Must be one of them angry young men.

Paul

Or a daffy old creep.

Jeremy

I, daffy old creep?

John

You speak English?

Jeremy

Old English, middle, a dialect, pure.

Paul

Well, do you speak English?

Jeremy

You know, I'm not sure!

Ringo

He's so smart, he doesn't even remember what he knows.
