The wha... pardon me?
Gonzo:
That's how the story begins, Rizzo, "The Marleys were dead, to begin with."
Rizzo the Rat:
Oh.
Gonzo:
As dead as a doornail.
Rizzo the Rat:
It's a good beginning. It's creepy and kind of...
[shivers]
Rizzo the Rat:
...hoo hoo! Spooky.
Gonzo:
Oh, thank you, Rizzo.
Rizzo the Rat:
You're welcome, Mr. Dickens.
Gonzo:
In life, the Marleys had been business partners with a shrewd moneylender named Ebenezer Scrooge. You will meet him as he comes around that corner.
Rizzo the Rat:
Where?
Gonzo:
There.
Rizzo the Rat:
When?
Gonzo:
Now.
[on cue, Scrooge appears]
Gonzo:
There he is, Mr. Ebenezer Scrooge.
Rizzo the Rat:
Say, is it getting colder out here?

that freezes your heart
