I Married a Witch Page #2

It seems all ablaze.

Is it on fire?

[ Daniel ] Not yet!

[ Cackling ]

What's knittin', kitten?

You like to cut a rug?

Let's ditch these ickies. How about

goin' to heaven in your jalopy?

That's solid, Jackson.

Now you're cookin' on the front burner.

What language is that,

Father?

[ Daniel ]

I don't know, but we'll learn it.

[ Big Band:
Mellow ]

[ Jennifer ]

See how they dance today.

They stand so close.

[ Daniel ] Well, well, well.

Things have changed.

[ Jennifer ] I never thought I'd see

clothes like that in New England.

[ Daniel ] These cannot be

the descendants...

of the Puritans we knew.

[ Jennifer ] There's something

that hasn't changed...

in 270 years.

[ Daniel ]

Keep thy mind on our business!

[ Jennifer ]

'Twould be nice to have lips

lips to whisper lies...

lips to kiss a man

and make him suffer.

Father, why cannot I have

lips and eyes and hair?

- [ Door Opens ]

- [ Daniel ] Careful. Someone's coming.

Quick! Do as I do!

These bottles

we'll hide in them.

Quick! Quick, quick,

quick, quick, quick!

[ Jennifer ]

Whee!

[ Daniel ]

Are you all right, Jennifer?

[ Jennifer ] 'Tis full of bubbles

in here. They tickle!

[ Daniel ] My bottle has

the tang of maple rum!

[ Jennifer Whispering ]

Look, Father!

Come closer, man,

so I can see thee better.

[ Daniel ] Riddle-dee-dee,

riddle-dee-doe...

get thee hence and stub thy toe.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Jennifer Whispering ] There was

something familiar about that face.

Could we follow him?

- What'll it be, Mr. Wooley?

- The same bourbon.

Yes, sir, Mr. Wooley.

[ Jennifer ] Wooley!

I knew I recognized those features.

[ Daniel ]

Well, well, well.

A descendant of the man

who had us burned.

[ Cackling ]

[ Jennifer ]

No wonder he looks so unhappy.

I put a curse upon his family.

[ Giggles ]

Well, I thought lovebirds

always flew around in pairs.

Estelle's talking politics.

- What's the matter? Election jitters?

- No.

How can I lose, with Masterson

and all his papers in back of me?

My future father-in-law

has never backed a loser.

If he spoils his record this time,

I'll have to hock my stethoscope.

You're betting on a sure thing, Dudley.

He isn't missing a trick. Look at that.

Posters at a private party.

The whole marriage is just

another campaign stunt to him

insisting we hold it

the day before the election...

so I'll get a good

publicity break on election day.

Wallace, I think

you've had enough to drink.

- Now, Estelle

- I'd like to go home.

Yes, dear.

Can we drop you, Dudley?

Yes, thanks.

[ Jennifer Snickering ]

The curse is working.

She has the look of a shrew!

Here, Tom.

Jennifer, what's that curse
