Police Sgt. Riley • The Giant
- [repeated line]
- The Giant: Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum! I smell the blood of an Englishman. Be he alive or be he dead, I'll grind his bones to make my bread.
- Patrick the Harp: [the giant just entered the castle dining hall, carrying a bag filled with jewels] And a good "Good Morning" to ya master!
- The Giant: Good morning, harp. Housekeeper, housekeeper!
- [Polly enters as he's emptying the bag onto the table]
- The Giant: Where's my breakfast?
- Polly the Housekeeper: On the way.
- The Giant: And bring me my favorite hen.
- Patrick the Harp: What, heaven forbid, do you see in that white feathered biddy?
- The Giant: Golden eggs, Patrick. Solid golden eggs!
- Polly the Housekeeper: [Jack enters the room, pushing a grill, wearing a chef's hat and apron. Polly whispers in his ear] The cells are unlocked and I put the keys back.
- Patrick the Harp: They're whispering master! What're they whispering about?
- [Jack sneers at the harp]
- Jack: Oh, I hate him.
- Polly the Housekeeper: Please take care of yourself.
- [Exits the room]
- Jack: [Musing to himself] I think she's worried. She cares for me.
- The Giant: Where's my breakfast?
- [Looking over the jewels]
- Patrick the Harp: Beautiful they are, but can they bring you happiness?
- [the giant finds a very small one and tosses it on the floor]
- The Giant: How'd that little one get in here?
- [Getting impatient]
- The Giant: Where's my breakfast?
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: You heard the giant!
- [Picks up the jewel the giant tossed and looks at it through a magnifying glass]
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Can I help you put them away?
- The Giant: Can I trust you?
- [Begins putting the jewels back in the bag]
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Eh, why, what a ridiculous question.
- [the giant grabs him by the shirt and repeats the question]
- The Giant: Can I trust you?
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Well frankly, no...
- The Giant: [Polly has come back, carrying a hen. The giant takes it from her and starts petting it] My jewel of jewels!
- Patrick the Harp: My jewel of jewels. What can she do that I can't do?
- The Giant: [Looks over at the harp] Can you lay a golden egg?
- Patrick the Harp: I shudder at the thought.
- The Giant: [Lays the hen down on the table] Show him how talented you are. Lay hen, lay!
- [after a moment it lays a golden egg, the giant picks it up]
- Patrick the Harp: It's only gold.
- The Giant: It's my main source of wealth.
- [to Polly]
- The Giant: Take her away.
- [to Dinkelpuss]
- The Giant: You!
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Y-yes, sir?
- The Giant: I like a dishonest man, who admits it. Carry these jewels back to the vault. She'll show you where it is.
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Yes, sir.
- [Takes the bag and leaves with Polly]
- Polly the Housekeeper: [the giant is preparing to eat Jack] The prince and the princess, they're trying to escape!
- The Giant: Let them.
- Polly the Housekeeper: They've taken your jewels and your hen that lays the golden egg!
- The Giant: The scoundrels! Keep him salted.
- [Hands her the salt and exits the room]
