Doctor Gogol:
[Referring to wax statue of Yvonne, being loaded into a truck]
Where are you taking that figure? Lavin - Waxworks Proprietor:
To the melting pot. Doctor Gogol:
Melting pot? Lavin - Waxworks Proprietor:
There's fifty francs of wax in that thing. Doctor Gogol:
Then no doubt you'd take seventy-five for it, would you? Lavin - Waxworks Proprietor:
What's the idea? Doctor Gogol:
Did you ever hear of Galatea? Lavin - Waxworks Proprietor:
Gala - who? Not wanting a statue of him, are you? Doctor Gogol:
I don't want a statue of Galatea. You see, she was a statue herself. Pygmalion formed her. Out of marble, not wax. And then she came to life in his arms. Lavin - Waxworks Proprietor:
[calling to his assistant]
Start the motor, Henry. There's queer people on the streets of Montmartre at this time of night. Doctor Gogol:
[handing him his card]
Here, a hundred francs if you deliver the statue to my house. Lavin - Waxworks Proprietor:
[reading card]
It's a go, Dr. Go... gol. First thing in the morning
