Or maybe it's this cheese.

Oh, gorgonzola!

My favorite tango!

Mr. Denny, you no want eat?

No, clear this stuff.

You won't grow up to be

a big strong boy like

grandpa here if you don't

eat your din-din, Fred.

Say listen, Lily, as long as you've got

to use it, the name's Dennis Carson.

Okay, Fred.

This name is Vantine,

as long as you've got to use it.

Don't worry, I won't

have much occasion to.

Nice light-hearted

little fellow, isn't he?

We've had a hard day's

work, Vantine.

What else do you do besides work?

Don't you know any games?

If it was the summer of 1894,

I'd play games with you, sister.

But life is much simpler now.

I bet you painted

your hometown red!

I'll say I did.

Good night, Denny.

- Good night, Mac.

- Good night.

Here... Cut that out

and eat something.

You'll just get stewed.

- I never get stewed.

What if I did?

Would it turn your hair gray?

No, but it'll put red spots

on your liver.

Especially if you don't

eat something.

Come on, big boy, I know

you've had a hard day in the office.

Get out of here!

Put the rest of that cheese in your

mouth, where it'll do the most good.

I'll go quietly, officer.

That's roquefort,

the other's gorgonzola.

- I happen to like roquefort.

- I like gorgonzola.

Is there any brand that would

stop you from talking?

I'll order a ton of it.

I'll keep quiet.

You know you wouldn't like roquefort

if you knew the way it was made.

They've got a whole town that does nothing

but make roquefort somewhere in France.

I was reading about it

the other day.

It comes from sheep's milk,

did you know that?

And they do the rottenest

things to the sheep...

Ewes, don't they call 'em?

Before they milk them, the sheep people

slap them all around underneath

to make the milk thicker and

then they put it in a cave and...

I don't care where it's made

or who slaps who.

All I want you to do...

- You don't have to snarl about it.

There are a lot of people who would be mighty

interested to know how they slap cheese...

I'm not interested in cheese.

You said you liked roquefort

and I was just telling you

how they slap it out...

You want me to slap you

out of this room?

You and what man's army?

If you don't keep quiet I'm gonna

lock you up in one of the outhouses.

What would you think of that?

I'd still like roquefort.

I mean gorgonzola!

There, I knew you had

a laugh in you, that's perfect.

Shake and go to the

head of your class.

Now wait a minute, Fred.

Come here.

Hey!

You talk too much, but

you're a cute little trick at that.

Why haven't you been around before?

You change your mind quick enough.

Your hair's always been that color?

Always been a towhead.
