Little Women

Now you are so tall and turn up your hair,

you must remember you're a young lady.

No, I'm not. And if turning up my hair

makes me so, I'll wear it down till I'm 100.

Jo!

As for you, Amy, your absurd words

are as bad as Jo's slang.

Your airs are funny now,

but you'll grow into an affected goose...

...unless you take care.

If Jo is a tomboy and Amy's a goose,

what am I, please?

You're a dear and nothing else.

We're three ungrateful wretches

who don't deserve you.

Wait until I become a famous author

and make my fortune.

Then we'll all ride in fine carriages,

dressed like Flo King...

...snubbing Amy's friends and telling

Aunt March to go to the dickens.

Let's rehearse.

We'll start with the fainting scene.

You're as stiff as a poker in that, Amy.

Well, I can't help it.

I've never seen anyone faint...

...and I don't intend to make myself

black-and-blue tumbling as flat as you do.

It's easy if you'll only watch me. Come on.

- Lf I can drop gracefully, I'll...

- Now, when I come in...

...you'll see the horrible look in my eyes

and you shrink back trembling.

Go ahead.

Get into the mood, Amy.

Now, when I start toward you,

with wicked intentions...

Oh, Amy, you...

...draw back in horror,

covering your eyes with your hands.

"Roderigo, Roderigo!

"Save me, save me!"

There, now you see? Now, it's easy.

Now, here I come.

"Roderigo, Roderigo!

"Save me, save me!"

- You were marvelous.

- That was lovely.

Glad to find you so merry, my girls.

- Darling.

- Marmee.

- How is your cold, Meg?

- Much better.

Beth, dear, kiss me, baby.

Thank you, Jo. Thank you, dear.

- You look tired to death, Jo.

- No, Marmee, I'm not tired.

- Your slippers are all ready now.

- That's my Bethie, dearie.

Did you have a hard day, Marmee?
