Song I think I'm gonna like it here

Scene 8a

Mr Warbucks marches in

Mr W:
Has the painting arrived

G:
Yes sir

Painting is held up for him. It's the Mona Lisa

W:
I don't like it. Send it back. Any messages?

G:
Yes. President Roosevelt called 3 times. He said it was urgent.

W:
Everything s urgent to a democrat. What else?...Wait! There's something interesting about that woman's smile. I

might learn to like her. Hang that in my bathroom.

G:
Mr Warbucks I'd like you to meet...

W:
Why do I smell wet dog?

Annie comes out from hiding with Sandy

Annie:
Because we gave Sandy a bath

W:
What's this?

G:
This is Annie sir. This is the orphan who will be staying with us for a week

W; Orphan. What are you talking about?

G:
Sir its a press story for the papers remember? It's only for a week

W:
This doesn't look like a boy. Orphans are boys

G:
Oh you didn't say you wanted a boy sir. You just said an orphan so I got a girl

W:
I want a boy

Annie:
I've got an interesting smile too sir. Don't you think you could like me too sir? Hang me in the bathroom?

W:
Take them back now!

G:
Oh Sir but she only just got here

Annie:
That's ok. We'll be ok. It was real nice meeting you anyhow. I sure do like your place.

W:
Thank you Annette

Annie:
Annie. I've had a really swell time. The driver came in a car the size of a train Mr Warbucks and we made

Drake sneeze and I played your pipe organ and Sandy got a bubble bath. And well I've had enough fun to last me for

years. Its really a swell idea to have an orphan stay for a week Mr Warbucks. Even if its only for your image. Even if

I'm not the orphan I'm glad you're doing it.

W:
I'm glad you approve. Let's get to work.

G:
Are you sure you need a boy? Couldn’t she stay. Its only for a week?

W:
Whatever but just for the week.
