Melody Allen: Here’s a horse pistol.
[Gives him the gun. Horatio turns to the horse behind him]

Dr. Ralph Greenway: Bottles flying through the air, glasses filling themselves up, and somebody tooted into my stethoscope!

Emily: [Calling to the ghosts of the well] Analog dos mirabus spirae cuttar, nimbus hypnosticos lazzum bid-dar.

Dr. Ralph Greenway: Emily! When you came in here just now, did you or did you not kick me?
Emily: Certainly not.
Dr. Ralph Greenway: [getting worried] Oh!


Horatio Prim: [he and Melody collide and are wearing each other’s clothes] Odds bodkins, we’re all mixed up!
