absolutely quiet.
- Mr. Browne, you have
the Star of Astoroth, I believe.
- Oh, yes.
It's in my nice, clean hanky.
It's all right, Mr. Browne.
I should have realized
that it would be quite impossible...
to take an object
from one world into another.
If only I would've had the sense
to remember the words on that star.
- I know the words, Miss Price.
- Don't bother Miss Price. She's thinking.
Charlie, why don't you and I nip down
to the village and get something for supper?
And I might conceivably
call into the pub for a pint...
to steady my nerves.
- Trebonna-
- I do know the words, Miss Price.
Come along. How can you know
the words when Miss Price doesn't?
Fre- Frebunna.
- You wish to put this
on Miss Price's bill?
- That is correct.
I don't believe we've met.
Oh, allow me
to introduce myself.
I am Miss Price's teacher,
Emelius Browne, from London.
Professor Browne.
Of course!
Oh, how many times I've seen your name
on your packages to Miss Price.
Oh, extremely masculine
handwriting.
I should have known.
Professor Emelius Browne.
- The very same.
- I'll confess somethin'.
Such was the nature and frequency
of your correspondence with Miss Price,
I ventured the hope there was somethin'
of a personal interest between you.
If there only were.
Miss Price is a fine woman.
I most heartily agree.
We're very fond of her here.
- I'm sure.
- In point of fact,
how many times
I've said to myself,
"Oh, fortunate is the man
who can secure Miss Price for a wife".
Well, one could
say that, yes.
You yourself
are not married?
Alas, no.
These are strange and fearful times
in which we live, my good woman.
Who could ask someone
you cherish...
to share such
an uncertain future?
Very well. Don't say I didn't
warn you, Professor Browne.
One of these days-you mark my words-
someone will come riding out of nowhere
to seize and carry off Miss Price...
- before your very eyes.
- I shouldn't be surprised. Charles.
Good morning.
And who was that,
may I ask?
Professor Emelius Browne
from London.
He's come to see Miss Price.
A very good friend, I understand.
Oh. Indeed.
- That Mrs. Hobday seemed to fancy you.
- Shh, shh, shh!
- I consider her a very dangerous person.
- What, her?
Mrs. Hobday is that most dangerous
of species: a matchmaker.
Troop movements and massing of barges
in French and Dutch channel ports.
The prime minister has told the nation
to be on the alert...
for signs of a possible invasion.
That was the news-
To think I might have been able
to do something about all this.
It's out of your hands now, my dear.
If only I could've remembered
those words. It's maddening.
Why don't someone ask me?
Come off it, Paul.
You can't remember those kind of words.
You mean like
Treguna, Mekoides,
Trecorum Satis Dee?
Treguna, Mekoides, Trecorum Satis Dee?
How do you know that?
Easy. Says so
right here in me book.
You mean it was there
in your book all the time?
Yeah. But nobody
ever listens to me.
Treguna, Mekoides,
Trecorum Satis Dee.
Nothing happened!
Am I doing something wrong?
Well, to tell you the truth,
it does seem a bit old-fashioned.
- After all, we are in the 20th century.
- What do you suggest?
Well, it needs rhythm,
tempo, music.
As I always say,
"Do it with a flair".
- Do you mind if I have a go?
- Oh, of course not.
Now, come along, you lot.
We need all the help we can get!
