Medical Student: Isn't it true that Darwin preserved a piece of vermicelli in a glass case until, by some extrordinary means, it actually began to move with voluntary motion? Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Are you speaking of the worm or the spaghetti? [the class laughs] Medical Student: Why, the worm, sir. Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Yes, I did read something of that incident when I was a student, but you have to remember that a worm... with very few exceptions... is not a human being. Medical Student: But wasn't that the whole basis of your grandfather's work? The reanimation of dead tissue? Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: My grandfather was a very sick man. Medical Student: But as a Fronkensteen, aren't you the least bit curious about it? Doesn't the bringing back to life what was once dead hold any intrigue to you? Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: You are talking about the nonsensical ravings of a lunatic mind! Dead is dead! Medical Student: But look at what has been done with hearts and kidneys... Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Hearts and kidneys are tinker toys! I am talking about the central nervous system!

Yes? Isn't it true that Darwin preserved A piece of vermicelli in a glass case Until it actually began to move With a voluntary motion? Are you speaking of the worm or the spaghetti? Why, the worm, sir. Yes, it seems to me I did read something Of that incident when I was a student, But you must remember that a worm, With very few exceptions, Is not a human being. Wasn't that the basis of your grandfather's work, The reanimation of dead tissue? My grandfather was a very sick man. But as a Fronkensteen, Aren't you the least bit curious about it? Doesn't bringing what was dead back to life Hold any intrigue for you? You're talking about The nonsensical ravings of a lunatic mind. Dead is dead! Look what has been done with hearts and kidneys. Hearts and kidneys are tinker toys! I'm talking about the central nervous system! But, sir... I am a scientist, not a philosopher! You have more chance of reanimating this scalpel Than you have of mending a broken nervous system! But your grandfather's work... My grandfather's work was doo-doo! I am not interested in death! The only thing that concerns me is the preservation of life! Class... is... dismissed. Dr. Frankenstein. That's Fronkensteen. My name is Gerhardt Falkstein. I've traveled 5,000 miles To bring you the will of your great-grandfather, Baron Beaufort Von Frankenstein. Oh, my sweet darling, Oh, my dearest love. I'll count the hours that you're away. Oh, darling, so will I. Not on the lips. What? I'm going to that party at Nana and Nicky's. I don't want to smear my lipstick. Of course. All aboard! Oh, dear! Well, I guess this is it. Freddy, darling, how can I say in a few minutes What it's taken me a lifetime to understand?
