The Great McGonigle:
[after Baby Albert has splashed soup over him] I don't know whether to eat from the coat or the plate!

Cleopatra Pepperday:
[after Baby Albert throws McGonigles watch into a bowl of molasses] Oh, Albert! Look what you've done to Mr. McGonigle's watch! Oh...

[the watch is shown sinking]

Cleopatra Pepperday:
Oh, I'm so sorry... Oh, Mr. McGonigle!

The Great McGonigle:
It's all right.

Cleopatra Pepperday:
He has such an impulsive nature.

The Great McGonigle:
Yeah, just like my own. Don't apologize. It's all right. It's just a little child... it's just a little child.

Cleopatra Pepperday:
Oh, he does the cutest things!

The Great McGonigle:
That he does!

Cleopatra Pepperday:
You should see him when no one's around.

The Great McGonigle:
Oh, I'd like to catch him sometime when...

[Correcting himself]

The Great McGonigle:
Uh, SEE him sometime when no one's around.

Cleopatra Pepperday:
Oh, Albert, why did you do that?

The Great McGonigle:
[Mumbling to himself] Bet the minute hand won't be a bit of use after this!

Cleopatra Pepperday:
Mr. McGonigle, I hope he hasn't hurt your watch.

The Great McGonigle:
[Sarcastically] Oh, no, how could you hurt a watch by dipping it in molasses?

Cleopatra Pepperday:
Oh, he's never done that before.

[She titters]

The Great McGonigle:
Well, I hope he doesn't do it again - not with this watch.
