FAGIN

Oh ladies, I forgot, you must meet our new lodger, Master Oliver Twist Esquire.

(NANCY and BET curtsey. OLIVER bows solemnly.)

NANCY

Charmed!

BET

Pleased to meet you, I'm sure.

(OLIVER bows. The GANG laughs and cat calls. OLIVER looks at them, hurt and angry. NANCY, seeing this, immediately takes his part.)

NANCY

Don't you take no notice of 'em Oliver. Just 'cause you've got manners and they ain't.

(to GANG)

You wouldn't know quality if you saw it, none of you. Dodger!

DODGER

NANCY

Have you seen the way them quality gentlemen treats their ladies?

DODGER

Of course I have.

NANCY

DODGER

NANCY

So how's it go then Dodger?
