Mr. Brown: Mrs. Partridge?
The Voice of Mrs Partridge: We're closed!

The Voice of Mrs Partridge: We're not here!
[she put the blinds down]
Mr. Brown: No, no. Please, let me in.
The Voice of Mrs Partridge: Go away!
Mr. Brown: I'm sure, there's time. Listen, they didn't eat the baby. It was a chicken, actually.
The Voice of Mrs Partridge: There's no more nannies! You've had the lot!
[she slams the door and Mr. Brown leaves]
