HARRY
Fancy Donna with a grown-up
daughter!
SOPHIE
Have you got any children, Harry?
HARRY
No. I haven't put myself in the path
of paternity.
SOPHIE
It's never too late.
HARRY
I don't think my other half would
agree.
SOPHIE
Oh - you don't want children?
HARRY
No, no, it's not like that. It's just that:
: well, I'd have liked a daughter. I'd
have spoiled her to bits.
SOPHIE
Lucky thing.
HARRY
Is your Dad here?
SOPHIE
I don't know.
HARRY
What?
SOPHIE
I don't know who my Dad is.
GIRLS
Is there a man out there?
Someone to hear my prayer:
BILL
Can I be nosey, I'm a writer so it
goes with the territory.
SOPHIE
Go on.
BILL
How did your mother get this place?
When I knew her
she was singing in a night-club on
the mainland.
SOPHIE
She was left some money, in a will.
We lived with an old lady when I
was little. Her name was Sophia?
BILL
What, my Great-Aunt Sophia?
SOPHIE
I think it must be.
BILL
But: I always heard her money
went to: family:
Wait a minute - how old are you?
SOPHIE
Twenty.
GIRLS
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
