Mrs. Stocroft: " - some spark of human goodness!"
Mrs. Stocroft: [in her calm, normal voice again] Well, good night, Mr. Walker. Sleep well! The dining room will be open for breakfast at 7:30 AM. Please be prompt.
Steve Walker: It's that rotten pirate, he did it!
Captain Blackbeard: What manner of craft be this we're cruisin' in?
Steve Walker: It's an automobile.
Captain Blackbeard: Eh?
