Dialogue
edit- Ollie Dee: Good morning, master.

- [They began to work on. Ollie tries to paint the wood horse and Stannie paints the rabbit eyes. He tries to talk to him.]
- Stannie Dum: Say, aren't you gonna ask him about the money to pay off the mortgage.
- Ollie Dee: I can't ask him now, Don't you see what a bad humor he's in?
- Stannie Dum: Well, If we don't get that money, Mother Peep's gonna be turned out of his shoe and she won't have any place to sleep. We can't let her do that.
- Ollie Dee: Why, If I ask him now, he'll jump right down my throat.
- Stannie Dum: But, I thought you and he are just like that.
- Ollie Dee: We are!
- Stannie Dum: Well, why don't you ask him?
- Ollie Dee: Why don't YOU ask him?
- Stannie Dum: Well, I can't ask him.
- Ollie Dee: Why?
- Stannie Dum: Well, he and I are just like that.
- Ollie Dee: Oh, don't be silly. He likes you better than he does me.
- Stannie Dum: Does he?
- Ollie Dee: Yeah... He told me he did.
- Stannie Dum: Does he?
- Ollie Dee: Yeah.
- Stannie Dum: [to the Toymaker] Oh, master?
- The Toymaker: What?
- Stannie Dum: Ollie wants to speak to you.
- The Toymaker: Well, what is it?
- Ollie Dee: Well, could I speak to you privately please, sir? I've got a very important question, I want to ask you.
- The Toymaker: Don't bother me now, Can't you see that I'm busy? Go on with your work.
- Ollie Dee: Well, if you knew how important it was, you see'd me privately because if you--
- The Toymaker: WILL YOU SHUT UP AND GO ON WITH YOUR WORK?! [bangs the mallet, Stannie turns on the choo-choo train, it moves, pushes the paint can and spills at the Toymaker]
- Little Bo-Peep: Tom-Tom, I don't know what mother will do, if they were really lost.
- Tom-Tom: Aw, don't worry. They'll be found. You've lost them before, haven't you? As a matter of fact, the last month, you've lost them five times.
- Little Bo-Peep: Oh, I couldn't have?
- Tom-Tom: Yes, you did. And four times the month before that. You see? You're getting worse. [Bo-Peep nods, sniffles] What you need to someone to help you look after the darn things.
- Little Bo-Peep: Who, for instance? [sniffles]
- Tom-Tom: Oh, He'd have to be most unusual, energetic, resourceful and with any amount of patience. A fellow sort of... Well, like me. [She turns to him, scoffs and she turns back] Not interested? [She shakes her head] Not even a little bit? [She shakes her head again, He opens the foot stocks, grabs her ankles, closes them] And I'll just keep you there until you are interested.
- Santa Claus: Hello, everybody! How's everything! And how are my two boys?
- Ollie Dee: Hello, Mr. Santie.
- The Toymaker: Can't wait until you see the wooden soldiers we made for you. The finest piece of work, we've ever turned out!
- Santa Claus: Splendid!
- The Toymaker: Yeah. Ollie? Go bring one of them in.
- Ollie Dee: Yes, sir! [to Stannie] You'd better help me. They're heavy. We'll bring them right out, Mr. Santie!
- Silas Barnaby: You see, child? Such folly. Wasting your affection on a common pignapper.
