Act 1; Scene 2 (BARTLEY'S LINES BECAUSE I NEED TO MEMORIZE THEM.)

Bartley: (long pause, looking over sweets, more pause) Do you have any mintios?

Eileen: We only have what you see.

Bartley: In America they do have Mintios.

Eileen: Go to America so.

Bartley: Me Aunty Mary did send me seven mintios in a package.

Eileen: Good on your Aunty Mary.

Bartley: From Boston Massachusetts.

Eileen: From Boston Massachusetts, uh-huh.

Bartley: But you have none?

Eileen: We only have what you see.

Bartley: You should get some Mintios, really, because Mintios are nice sweeties. You should order some in. You should get somebody from America to go sending you some. In a package. (sigh) Now I'll have to be taking another look for meself.

Eileen: Take another look for yourself, aye.

Bartley: (pick over sweets, long pause) Do ya have any Yalla-Mallows?

Eileen: (pause) We have only what you see.

Bartley: They do have Yalla-Mallows in America.

Eileen: Oh aye. I suppose your Aunty Mary did send you some in a package.

Bartley: (thinking freely) No. She sent me a photograph of some in a package. The only proper sweeties she sent me were the seven Mintios. (pause) Really iy would've been better of she's only sent me four Mintios, and then put in three Yalla-Mallows with them, so then I could've had like a selection. Or three Mintios and four Yalla-Mallows. Aye, But, ah, I was happy enough with the seven Mintios if truth be told. Mintios are nice sweeties. Although the photograph of the Yalla-Mallows did raise me curiosity about them. (pause for a beat) But you have none?

Eileen: (bewildered) Yalla-Mallows?

Bartley: Aye.

Eileen: No.

Bartley: Oh.

Eileen: We have only what you see.

Bartley: I'll have to be taking another look for meself so. I want something to go sucking on. For the trip, y'know.
