• Amiot : [Upon hearing about a thief in the opera house]  Call the police at once! This must be stopped!

  Vereheres : Monsieur, I'm afraid the police can't stop that. It's he.

  Amiot : Who?

  [VEREHERES begins to make gestures at his nose and chin] 

  Amiot : Oh, please. Don't start that nonsense again, Vercheres. At your age, you ought to know that there aren't any ghosts.

  Vereheres : Monsieur, you are skeptical, but I don't like ghosts. I'm a busy man.

  Lecours : What's that?

  Amiot : Oh, our brilliant stage manager insists there's a malicious ghost prowling about the Opera. If anything goes wrong, he thinks this ghost did it!

  Vereheres : Oh, monsieur...

  [to LECOURS, again making gestures to his nose and chin] 

  Vereheres : He has a long nose, and a big red beard!

  Lecours : You make me nervous!
