Good afternoon, Miss Farrell.

Good afternoon, Drake. Everyone.

Good afternoon, Miss.

Has Mr. Warbucks arrived yet?

DRAKE

No, Miss. We're expecting him any minute.

ANNIE

Do you really live here, or is this a train station?

GRACE

We really live here.
(To SERVANTS) 
Now, would you all come here for a moment, please?

Quickly everyone.

This is Annie. She'll be with us for Christmas.
(To ANNIE) 
Annie, this is everyone.

ANNIE

Hi, everyone.

DRAKE

May I take your coat, Miss?

ANNIE

Will I get it back?

GRACE

Of course, dear. Now, what do you want to do first?

ANNIE

The floors. I'll scrub them first; then I'll get to the windows.

GRACE

Annie, you won't have to do any cleaning. You're our guest.
