"Mother": Oh, look

Claire Lemmon{?}: Put that one back, and then pat him on the head

Jim: Hang on, can we not make them alive?

"Mother": That's all we need!

Claire Lemmon{?}: No, because then we can put all the dead ones in a round circle

Tim: Yeah. Pretty as a picture... why- why would they not be better alive?

"Mother": Because we'll have to beat them [laughs]

Tim: This one looks too quiet

"Mother": Quiet as a mouse

"Mother": Shh, look who's coming round the corner

Babba: Hello!

"Mother": Do you know him?

Tim: It's tiny Bob Leith, pretty as a picture

"Mother": Shall, shall we beat him senseless?

Tim{?}: Yes, but this is where I take my tiny- knife!

"Mother": Quiet as a mouse
