The Adventurer: The Curse of the Midas Box Page #2

Still, I'm sure they

mean a lot to you.

What parent doesn't

Cherish their children?

Mr. Grimm, Mr. Grendel!

We really must find her boys.

We're all just worried sick.

It's just a little hard when you don't

know exactly what they look like, sir.

(GLASS CLINKING)

Get off at the next stop.

Search every boarding house,

work house, reformatory, everywhere.

Just find them.

Please, sir. We need help.

Try the work house down the road.

- But...

- Keep moving.

- But, sir.

- I said, keep moving!

Mariah, I'm starving.

Wait here.

Here we go, chicken and sprouts.

Uh, we've got pork pies.

Please, sir. Could you spare a copper?

A penny or two?

Anything would do. Much obliged.

- Here.

- (COIN CLINKING)

Thief!

What did you do?

MAN:
Officer!

Where do you think

you're going then, eh?

(HORSES SNORTING)

Well, look what we have here, now.

Some dirty new guests.

MAN:
Welcome to Gateshead Manor.

Come on!

- MAN 1:
Line up!

- MAN:
Get up!

Get a move on!

Stand up straight!

For your crimes, you

will serve the time.

But, first,

we have some visitors that would

like to make your acquaintance.

Mariah, they found us.

I can see that, Felix.

Oi, oi...

Sounds like a couple of

toffs took a wrong turn.

Do I know you? What have

you been up to, eh?

What are you going to do?

(MIMICS) What are

we going to do?

We're not even supposed to be here.

Oh, is that right?

(MAN TALKS INDISTINCTLY)

Look, everybody.

Lord Muck and his little

brother have come to tea.

One lump or two, Your Lordship?

Get off him.

You're pulling my leg, aren't you?

Let's see what you're

made of, shall we?

(GROANS)

You glocky sod!

(ALL SHOUTING)

- (BELL RINGING IN THE DISTANCE)

- MARIAH:
Felix, come on!

Shut the gate!

Found ya!

- (HORSES NEIGHING)

- (PEOPLE SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY)

We've been looking

everywhere for you.

That's funny.

So have I.

(GROANING)

You've knocked my bleeding tooth out.

Looks like you're in

a spot of trouble.

I feel it only fair to warn you.

I have studied over five

separate forms of martial art.

Well, study this.

Now that's not very

gentlemanly of you.

- Doesn't I look like a gentleman?

- (CHUCKLES)

- (GROANING)

- (GRUNTING)

- To the scaffold.

- (GROANS)

FELIX:
Mariah!

Get off me! Let me go.

- (GUNSHOT)

- (HORSE NEIGHING IN THE DISTANCE)

(GROANS)

- FELIX:
Mariah!

- MARIAH:
Felix!

- Come on, boy.

- Felix!

Toodle-oo, old chap.

(SCREAMING)

- (THUDDING)

- (GROANS)

(GUNSHOTS)

- We really have to leave.

- MARIAH:
Felix!

(SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY)

Mariah!

Mariah! Mariah! Mariah!

Jump!

- (HORSES NEIGHING)

- (CARRIAGE RATTLING)

- Mariah!

- Felix!

- No!

- No, Mariah!

- Mariah!

- No, Mariah! No!
