I Married a Witch Page #3

thou wast chattering about?

[ Jennifer ] Each Wooley

must marry the wrong woman.

[ Daniel ]

Ha! What a curse!

Every man who marries...

marries the wrong woman.

True suffering cometh...

when a man is in love

with the woman he cannot marry.

Father, suppose a man

were in love with a witch.

With me.

I would not marry him.

[ Daniel ] Ha!

[ Hiccups ] Ooh, pardon me.

I need air.

For tonight

I'll merry, merry be

Tomorrow I'll be sober

[ Drunkenly ]

Let's get out of here.

Let's go for a little ride.

[ Whistles ]

Broom!

Father, give me a body.

[ Daniel ] Oh, no.

[ Chuckles ]

Thou didst get into enough

trouble with thy last one.

[ Jennifer ] Thou canst not

give me a body.

Thou wouldst not even know

how to begin.

[ Daniel ]

No? I'd merely make a little fire.

[ Hiccups ] As thy last body

was destroyed by flame...

thy new one would be

born in flame!

[ Jennifer ] Prove it.

Start that great house on fire.

[ Daniel ] A hotel for pilgrims.

[ Chuckles ]

'Twould be a pleasure

burning that.

All right, I will.

Worra, worra, fizzle, dizzle...

let the flame begin to sizzle!

P-I-L-G-R-I-M...

H-O-T-E-L!

- [ Cackling ]

- Good-bye, Father.

Good-bye, Jennifer.

Be a bad girl.

- That's the Pilgrim Hotel!

- It would have to be

on our way home.

- [ Bell Clanging ]

- We'll have to stop.

You wouldn't go through fire

for your future wife? [ Chortles ]

Boy, look at those flames.

I never saw such a fire.

- Is there any way we can get through?

- Sorry, Mr. Wooley. It's all blocked off.

- Some firebug must've touched this off.

- He did a good job!

This is the craziest fire

I've ever seen!

Laps up water like a cat!

- You're sure everybody got out?

- Yes, sir. We've checked every room.

Yeah, they're all

accounted for.

It's all right, men. Everybody's safe.

Get these people back.

We're stuck here

for a while.

Tell them who you are.

They'll have to make way.

- I'm sorry, Estelle.

- Wallace, where are you going?

- There's Mr. Wooley!

- [ People Clamoring ]

- Make way for Wooley.

- Make way for the next governor.

- Would you like to go through?

- Yes, thank you.

Folks, let him get by.

- I'm voting for you.

- There goes a great guy.

- Hello, Mr. Wooley.

- Hello.

Don't get too close.

I got a bet riding on you.

- How did it happen?

- Nobody seems to know.

There was an explosion on the roof.

The top floor went like that.

Then the fifth,

then the fourth.

Now it's on the third. Soon it'll be

on the second, and then the first...

then it'll all cave in on the basement.

[ Laughing ]

- What's so funny?

- Oh, it's fully insured...

and I love

building new things.

I want to build it

in a classic gothic design.
