Oh, my goodness. So much energy and coupled with sneezing and coughing.
Yes.

You should try this oil I ordered online, Helen.
What's it for, Sam?
It cures all ailments.
That's a false claim.
I swear by it. All my aches and pains are gone.
That's the placebo effect.
But I'm the living proof!
Ah! I'm very skeptical.
Try it and see for yourself.
No thanks.

Achoo! Oh, no. A.. a… a… achoo! Sam…
Here! Try this oil.
Saaaam…. Achoo!

Yeah, the oil doesn't seem to have helped Sam at all.
Yeah.
Uh-huh. I'm also very skeptical.
Hmm…

I've never heard that.
Me either.

You need to watch your diet and get more exercise.
I don’t have time for that.
This is no laughing matter.
But I feel fine!
Listen carefully: you're at high risk for a heart attack or stroke.
I think “the white coat syndrome” elevated my blood pressure.
I've ruled out that possibility.

Oh, I don't need your diddly diagnoses. (diddly = くだらない、つまらない)
Did you say deadly?
I said diddly.
You didn’t.
I did. I did. I did. I did. I did. I did. I DID.
Didn't didn’t didn't didn't I'm so tired.
You are the one that needs more e-x-e-r-c-i-s-e, exercise.

I love this musical.
You do?
Yeah.

Well, thanks guys.
Thank YOU.
You’re welcome.

Save Our Earth! Slow down global warning!
What was that you said?
Look at the sign.
Uh, oh! May I have a flyer?
Of course.
Do you recycle everything?
Almost everything. I have very little trash.
What’s your position on plastic bags?
There’s no doubt I in my mind that plastic bags must be banned.
What about paper bags?
In my view, they should be prohibited, too!

Well, I'm sure your voice will be heard.
Thanks.
At least by my family tonight.
Thanks.

Too much screaming.

So Katie, what's your position on plastic bags?
Yeah, I really... I'd rather bring my own bags, so usually I bring my own bag with me and don’t use plastic bags.
Is that right?
Yeah.
My neighbor supermarket is trying to get everybody to do that.
Oh, wow!
Is that right?
Yeah.
Well, on a larger scale I heard someone tell me that the state of Hawaii is going to ban plastic bags.
Oh?
Wow!
When?
In two or three years, so it will be... it'll start in 2015 or something.
That's huge.
Oh, that's a good idea, I think.

I think this is a first.
Oh!
It is.
Yes.
Let’s hear it.

Excuse me Ma'am, this is private property.
I have no intention of leaving.
If you don’t cooperate, I'll have to arrest you for trespassing.
Oh, come on! You’re not being fair at all.
On the contrary, I’m upholding the law.
This precious building is part of our town’s history!
You’re under arrest.
No, no, no. Get your hands off of me. This is a travesty of justice.

You’re still under arrest.
No way.

My goodness! She is still under arrest.
I don’t think so.
It was pretty arresting there, you know.
Yes.
I think the policeman should be under arrest too… bad singing.
Oh, no. On the contrary, you’re both wonderful.
Thank you.
Welcome. Thank YOU.


Keep on singing and smiling.
