Script: Mrs. Pinch
SIDE 1
FRANCOIS THE CHEF
It's my special creation, Mrs. Pinch! Leeks, beets, and celery!
(MR. and MRS. PINCH each taste a spoonful.)
MRS. PINCH
Mmmmm! It's delicious, Francois.
FRANCOIS THE CHEF
Monsieur?
MR. PINCH
Needs more pepper. Back to the kitchen!
(FRANCOIS bursts into tears, skulks away.)
MRS. PINCH
Really, dear? I thought it was quite tasty.
MR. PINCH
Bah!
(RESTAURANT PATRONS begin pointing offstage, as through the restaurant window.)
PATRON #1
Is that...? Is that?
PATRON #2
Yes. Yes. It is. Charles Dickens.
PATRON #3
He's coming this way!
PATRON #4
To the Inn!
(MR. and MRS. PINCH look out the window to see what all the hubbub is about.)
MRS. PINCH
Oh, my stars and garters, it is!
