The White Elephant 2: Quick!
| Peter: | Quick! Quick! |
| Gordon: | What?! Is it a fire? Right, everybody calm down! Calm down! |
| Peter: | What? It's not a fire. We've got a customer ... |
| Ceilia: | A customer?! At last. |
| Gordon: | Well, what does he want? I haven't got all day. |
| Peter: | He wants the ... 'Spatchcocked peasant with lemon and herbs.' |
| Gordon: | Pheasant, not peasant. Call yourself a waiter? Honestly ... |
| Ceilia: | Come on then Gordon, get a move on, we can't let another customer get away. |
| Gordon: | I know, I know. Now where did I put the pheasant ... |
| Mary: | I'll give you a hand if you like. |
| Gordon: | You stick to washing up, love. Cooking pheasant is a job for a professional chef ... now where is that stupid pheasant? |
| Peter: | ... the customer says 'pull your finger out' – he's off to the theatre soon. |
| Gordon: | I'll tell him where he can stick his finger ... |
| Ceilia: | Gordon, stay here and cook – come on, quick as a flash. |
| Gordon: | I need a pheasant! |
| Mary: | I've found the pheasant - and it doesn't smell too fresh. |
| Ceilia: | Can't we get a fresh one A.S.A.P.? |
| Gordon: | Where are we going to get a pheasant at this time of night? – anyway, I cook, not go shopping. |
| Mary: | OK, I'll go and tell the customer shall I? |
| Ceilia: | We need a quick fix ... can't we use a chicken? |
| Gordon: | Chicken isn't pheasant. |
| Mary: | Listen, listen ... we don't need a pheasant. |
| Ceilia: | Why? |
| Mary: | He's gone. |
