Scene 8
And this is Cousin Helga from Baden-Baden
ALICE: Who’s that looking over her shoulder?
Oh no. That’s her other head.
ALICE: She has two heads?
Well, you know what they say
(MORTICIA and ALICE share a laugh)
ALICE: And who’s that man in the dress?
Oh. That’s Aunt Herman. Wednesday’s uncle.
And here’s Gomez and me, at our wedding.
MORTICIA: Oh. That’s Aunt Herman. Wednesday’s uncle.
And here’s Gomez and me, at our wedding.
ALICE: What’s that?
Our wedding vows.
That’s so romantic. “We promise to tango at least three times a week,”
For passion.
“We promise to tell each other everything.”
For truth.
ALICE: Everything?
Of course.
ALICE: And you’re still married?
More than ever.
ALICE: Boy it sure doesn’t work that way in our house.
How does it work?
ALICE: Well what’s good for the gander is a nice quiet goose; if I told Mal my secrets, all heck would break loose.
Alice, I’m shocked. What kind of marriage is it where you keep secrets?
WEDNESDAY: We found each other. It’s kind of a miracle.
Gomez!
WEDNESDAY: Daddy, you promised after dinner.
What were the three of you whispering about?
GOMEZ: Come, Lucas. I should you the most. Did you ever see a rat as big as a dachshund?
LUCAS: No sir.
Gomez.
What’s going on?
Nothing. We were just talking.
That wasn’t talking, that was conspiring.
