Searching

[ANTHONY, spoken]
Mr. Todd?

[JOHANNA, spoken]
No one here. Where is this Mr. Todd?

[ANTHONY, spoken]
No matter. He'll return in a moment, for I trust him as I trust my right arm. Now, you wait for him here, and I'll return with the coach in less than half an hour.

[JOHANNA, spoken]
But they are after us still. What if they trace us here? Oh, Anthony, please let me come with you.

[ANTHONY, spoken]
No, my darling, there's no safety for you in the street.

[JOHANNA, spoken]
But dressed in these sailor's clothes, who's to know it is I?

[ANTHONY, spoken]
No, the risk is too great.
(sung)
Ah, miss
Look at me, look at me, miss, oh
Look at me please, oh
Favor me, favor me with your glance
Ah, miss
Soon we'll be, soon we'll be gone
And sailing the seas
And happily, happily wed in France

[JOHANNA & ANTHONY]
And we'll sail the world
And see its wonders
From the pearls of Spain
To the rubies of Tibet—

[ANTHONY, JOHANNA]
And then come back to London (And then home)

[JOHANNA & ANTHONY]
Some day

[ANTHONY, spoken]
I'll return to you before those lips have time to lose that smile.

[BEGGAR WOMAN]
Beadle

[JOHANNA, spoken]
Someone calling the Beadle. I knew it!

[BEGGAR WOMAN]
Beadle, where are you?
Beadle, dear
Beadle
Beadle deedle deedle deedle deedle dumpling
Be-deedle dumpling
Be-deedle deedle deedle deedle deedle deedle deedle
Deedle deedle deedle deedle deedle...

[TODD, spoken]
You! What are you doing here?

[BEGGAR WOMAN, spoken]
Ah, evil is here, sir. The stink of evil—from below—from her!
Beadle dear, Beadle!

[TODD, spoken]
Out of here, woman.

[BEGGAR WOMAN, spoken]
Oh, she's the devil’s wife! Oh, beware of her, sir. Beware her. She with no pity in her heart.

[TODD, spoken]
Out, I say!

[BEGGAR WOMAN]
Hey, don't I know you, mister?

[TODD, spoken]
The judge. I have no time.

[TODD kills the BEGGAR WOMAN and sends her to the cellar.]
