Act 2 - Scene 6 Flashcards
Grab anything that looks like it’ll float! We’re gettin’ outta here!
No- first take me to the trunk. Remember the mission.
Forget the trunk- the trunk is safe. What we need is a raft!
It’s not your decision, Peter. Protect the trunk- that’s the mission!
Blinking fierce-
It’s Father! Father- oh, good! He’s signaling me all the way from the Wasp!
What’s it mean?
He’s using Norse Code! It’s Norse Code, everyone!
Um- sorry- I think you mean Morse Code.
Not Morse Code. Norse Code! From Norway! The ancient Viking signaling system.
What’s he saying?
Unless I miss my guess, he’s saying, “Marla bella furna seena heina furna.” And then he says, “un, gettsie Molly doozee blingen.” That’s: “First take Molly to the trunk.” “Coom heller high water.” That’s: “Remember the mission”
Very convenient.
“Un gettsie blingen doozee plakken.” That’s: “Take the trunk down to the beach.” “Marla bella furna”- “Father’ll be there with the longboat.” “Seena heina furna”- “We’ll be” “heina furna”- um, “safe, if we can just get past the pirates and make it to the beach.” “Den tooren inder flanken essen, neckon freska tudor! Nayben nay benessa, nay benanka, binta rubalenka sinkin-hookin keep de motor cookin, anka Danke, Papa.” -“Love, Daddy.
I feel kinda stupid not knowing Norwegian.
It isn’t a contest. Though, if it were, I’d win.
And the running- you’re really fast. Better than me.
Well, you’re a better leader.
Really?
No. C’mon, take me to the trunk!
BUTTERFLY AND DEEP FAT FRY! BUTTERFLY AND DEEP FAT FRY!
The Mollusks!
THE MOLLUSKS!
We’ll have to outrun them!
Hear that, Prentiss? That’s the sound of a leader!
I’m not leaving you!
Afraid I’ll beat you to the top?
As if! Bravo, Peter.
