But I don’t WANT to, Meg!
You’re too young to turn your hair up, Amy!
Yer hands clean at last?
Ink! Again!
You gonna do something about this?
What am I supposed to do?
Some creature came begging and your ma went off to see what was needed.
Why are you wearing the costume, Jo? We’re not rehearsing today.
Josephine is so childish, Meg. It is most aggregating.
Amy!
“Aggregating!” That’s a new one.
You mean “aggravating”, dear.
But come the new year, she’ll take me to EUROPE!
I’d a thousand times rather sit with Aunt March than be the Mingotts’ governess, with Mrs. Mingott, of the Manhattan Mingotts, always talking down to me.
“Libel”. Labels are for pickle bottles.
We all got through school, Amy, and you’ll survive it, too.
I’M NERVOUS!
Amy, hush!
Why does she get one thing and me another!
Different people need different things.
And you need to go to school - for you have a terrible case of the moron!
Jo!
Really, Josephine, you are positively de-lusual!
…“Delusional”.
We each can play our part.
No Christmas?
Christmas without any presents!
Oh, Marmee, it does seem so-
And me at school-
Maybe no presents, Marmee. But we each have a dollar! Perhaps we could just… spend it on ourselves!
Jo. You know you can’t.
PREE-SENT!
Marches… march!
Glory Glory Hallelujah
Glory Glory Hallelujah
Glory Glory Hallelujah
His Truth is marching on!
Pariah.
Jo.
Besides, that money is to buy something for ourselves, not for others!
I know we ought to give up presents gladly, but I’m just not that good.
We ought to do many things-
-we ought to be grateful! After all, we have father and Marmee and each other.
So I’m getting myself a muff!
Amy-
What’s that?
Hannah said Mr. Laurence’s grandson moved in next door. His parents died.
An orphan, growing up alone in that big house - you’d be sad, too.
He has a tutor, Hannah said, and his grandfather.
You would have never given me a dime, in our school days.
Don’t be jealous.
