Olivia Flaversham:
Now will you please listen to me? My daddy's gone, and I'm all alone.
Basil:
Young lady, this is a most inopportune time.
[Resumes playing violin]
Basil:
Surely your mother knows where he is.
Olivia Flaversham:
I... I don't have a mother.
Basil:
[Stops playing with a screech]
Well, um... then perhaps... See here! I simply have no time for lost fathers.
Olivia Flaversham:
I didn't lose him. He was taken by a bat.
Basil:
Did you say... bat?
Olivia Flaversham:
Yes.
Basil:
Did he have a crippled wing?
Olivia Flaversham:
I don't know, but he had a peg leg.
Basil:
Ha!
Dr. Dawson:
I say, do you know him?
Basil:
Know him? That bat, one Fidget by name, is in the employ of the very fiend that was the target of my experiment! The horror of my every waking moment. The nefarious Professor Ratigan!
Dr. Dawson:
Ratigan?
Basil:
He's a genius, Dawson. A genius twisted for evil. The Napoleon of crime!
Dr. Dawson:
As bad as all that, eh?
Basil:
Worse! For years I've tried to capture him, and I've come close, so very close, but each time he's narrowly evaded my grasp! Not a corner of London is safe while Ratigan is at large. There's no evil scheme he wouldn't concoct. No depravity he wouldn't commit. Who knows what dastardly scheme that villian may be plotting even as we speak.

Now, will you please listen to me?
My daddy's gone, and I'm all alone.
Young lady, this is
a most inopportune time.
Surely your mother knows where he is.
I... I don't have a mother.
(VIOLIN SCREECHES)
Well... Um...
Then perhaps...
See here, I simply have
no time for lost fathers.
I didn't lose him. He was taken by a bat.
- Did you say bat?
- (STUTTERING) Yes.
- Did he have a crippled wing?
- I don't know, but he had a peg leg!
I say, do you know him?
Know him? That bat,
one Fidget, by name,
is in the employ of the very fiend
who was the target of my experiment!
The horror of my every waking moment.
The nefarious Professor Ratigan!
(THUNDERING)
- Uh... Ratigan?
- He's a genius, Dawson.
A genius twisted for evil.
- The Napoleon of crime.
- (THUNDERING)
- As bad as all that, eh?
- Worse!
For years, I've tried to capture him,
and I've come close, so very close.
But each time,
he's narrowly evaded my grasp.
Not a corner of London's safe
while Ratigan's at large.
There's no evil scheme
he wouldn't concoct!
No depravity he wouldn't commit.
Who knows what dastardly scheme
that villain may be plotting,
even as we speak?
(RATTLING, POPPING)
(GEARS GRINDING)
(CHUCKLING)
Quite an ingenious scheme,
eh, Flaversham?
And aren't you proud to be a part of it?
This whole thing is...
It... it's monstrous.
RATIGAN: We will have our little device
ready by tomorrow evening, won't we?
You know what will happen if you fail.
(BELL RINGS)
I... I... I don't care!
(POPPING, RATTLING)
(SPUTTERING)
