Buccaneer's Girl Page #3

in the morning to see them sprout.

He'll be bald before I'm through.

Jared, if there's any trouble with

that girl, I'll hold you responsible.

Oh, you needn't fret about her, sir.

She's locked in the cabin. I have

the key right here in my pocket.

Well, I'd better put it in my pocket.

Then I know she won't cause any trouble.

Aye, aye, sir.

Cast off.

Good morning, Mama. It's a

beautiful morning, isn't it?

So it's a beautiful

morning. What about it?

You look tired, Mama.

Go inside and rest.

We have no time to rest. The

customers are already in the market.

We gotta put the rest

of the vegetables on...

No, no, no, Mama. Later.

Out of my way. I was wondering when I...

Sorry, but you should have let me out.

So this is where you keep her.

Mama, I swear, I never saw her before.

After 20 years, you keep a

woman in the vegetable box.

It isn't true! After 20 years, I didn't!

I never saw your husband

before in my life.

I slept in there last night

because I had no place else to go.

Liar. Mama.

Hag. No, no, no, please.

Mama... Police! Police!

Please, Mama, don't.

Joseph, hadn't you better go?

If Madame Brizar will pardon me.

Of course.

Police! Police! Police!

Please, Mama!

I wouldn't have your husband

on a salad with mayonnaise!

He's good enough for me, but

he's not good enough for you?

Police! Mama!

You know what? If he's

so good you can have him.

Please stop screaming for me. I'm here.

Now what is the cause

for this disturbance?

He hid her in our vegetable closet.

I never saw her before.

He lies. With my own eyes I saw her.

For 20 years, she accuses me

of flirting with every woman

who comes to buy vegetables!

Because it took me

20 years to catch him!

Believe me, Mr. Policeman.

I didn't do anything.

I open the closet door and there she is!

Silence! I can't hear

you for the shouting.

Go inside. The rest of you, disperse.

Madame Brizar's compliments,

mademoiselle. She wants to see you.

Look, I'm in a hurry,

and I'm in trouble enough.

Then you should want to

see Madame Brizar.

This way, please.

Madame Brizar.

Did you want to see me? Yes.

You could be very attractive,

my girl. What's your name?

Deborah McCoy.

Stand back a little, so

that I can see you better.

Hmm.

Not too bad. Not too bad.

There she is! By the carriage!

Get in, Deborah. Why?

Because that policeman

is looking for you.

Now drive on.

Do you mind if I ask a question?

By all means.

Where are we going?

Home.

Come, come, child. In we go.

You may put the carriage away.

Yes, madame.

Come, Deborah.

Good morning, Toussaint.

Good morning, ma'am.

Monsieur Narbonne and

Monsieur Patout are waiting.

Oh. At this early hour?
