精彩對白

White Queen: The blood of the Jabberwocky. You have our everlasting gratitude. And for your efforts on our behalf ...

Alice: Will this take me home?

White Queen: If that is what you choose.

Hatter: You could stay.

Alice: What an idea? A crazy mad wonderful idea! But I can't. They are questions I have to answer. Things I have to do. I'll be back again, before you know it.

Hatter: You won't remember me.

Alice: Off course I will. How could I forget? Hatter,why is a raven like a writing desk?

Hatter: I haven't the slightest idea. Fairfarren Alice.

Hamish: She left me standing there without an answer.

Girls: A case of nerves, no doubt.

Hamish: Alice.

Hamish's father: God, lord! Are you alright?

Alice's mother: What happened to you?

Alice: I fell down a hole and hit my head. I'm sorry, Hamish, I can't marry you. You're not the right man for me. You'll always have problems with your digestion. I love you, Margaret, but this is my life. I'll decide what to do with it. You're lucky to my sister for your wife, Lowell. I know you'll be good to her. I'll be watching very closely. There is no prince, Aunt Imogen. You need to talk to somebody about these delusions. I happen to like rabbits, especially white ones. Do not worry, Mother. I'll find something useful to do with my life. You two remind me of some funny boys I met in a dream.

Hamish's father: You've left me out.

Alice: No, I haven't, sir. You and I have business to discuss.

Hamish's father: Shall we speak... in the study?

Alice: Oh, and one more thing. My father told me he wanted to expand his trade routes to Sumatra and Borneo. But I don't not think he was looking far enough. Why not go all the way to China? It's vast, the culture's rich and we have a foothold in Hong Kong. To be the first to trade with China, Can you imagine it?

Hamish's father: You know, if somebody had said that to me, I'd have said you've lost your senses. But I've seen that look before. As you're not going to be my daughter in law, perhaps you'd consider becoming an apprentice with the company.

Alice: Hello, Absolem.
