MRS. LEVI<br />

That way we'll all be together so we can dance at Ermengarde's wedding!<br />

VANDERGELDER<br />

That does it! You've gone too far, <strong>Dolly</strong>! I'll dance at no weddings! Besides, I don't know how and it would take<br />

me weeks, months, years to learn….<br />

(Reads card she extends to him)<br />

….All right, I’ll dance….<br />

MRS. LEVI<br />

Horace! I never thought I'd hear you say a thing like that!<br />

(PAPER HANGER appears upstairs)<br />

VANDERGELDER<br />

That front room, idiot! Well, go on! What are you waiting for?<br />

(Xing to get on SR steps)<br />

Horace Vandergelder, what is going on up there?<br />

(MUSIC starts)<br />

MRS. LEVI<br />

VANDERGELDER<br />

VANDERGELDER<br />

I know the old paper ain't worn out, yet, but that fella's just set up in business and needs a good start. You see,<br />

Thank you, Ephraim....<br />
