SCROOGE: You’ll want all day tomorrow, I suppose.
CRATCHIT: If it is quite convenient, sir.
SCROOGE: It’s not convenient and it’s not fair. If I were to stop half a crown for it, you’d
think yourself ill-used. And yet, you don’t think me ill-used when I pay a day’s wages for
no work.
CRATCHIT: Christmas only comes once a year, sir.
SCROOGE: (He stands. He starts buttoning his coat and putting on his scarf.) A poor
excuse for picking a man’s pocket every twenty-fifth of December! But I suppose you
must have the whole day. Be here all the earlier the next morning!
I owe you a hug and a kiss for the Dickens’ quote!
Happy Thanksgiving to You and to Yours!
