Usher-dude: Excuse me, sir! You need a ticket to enter here!
Balthier: I have one, see? Admit One Doctor and one assistant. This is my assistant, Fran.
Usher-dude: Oh, terribly sorry sir.
Balthier: Right, well make sure too remember us.
Fran: I don't understand, mist. Why are we mist at this mist opera house?
Balthier: Look, Fran: If you're going to be my assistant, you need to stop saying mist every other word. Can you even go a full sentence without saying mist?
Fran: I mist. Can. Can mist.
Balthier: Right. Anyway, try to enjoy tonight. Not long after this some very unpleasant things happen at this opera house.
Fran: Mist?
Balthier: Yes, an “Opera Ghost” causes a spot of trouble. Turns out that a famous fellow wrote a book and another man wrote a very popular musical based on it.
Fran: What is the name of the opera?
Balthier: Hannibal by Chalumeau. Leblanc, the famous Spanish diva is singing. Well, the diva of her time period. Well, of this area. Well, for now anyway.
Fran: And what year have we arrived at, mist?
Balthier: 1870. Come along, Fran. We can’t stand about here, can we?
Fran: Can we?
Balthier: No
Lenne: We never said our love was evergreen or as unchanging as the sea. But if you can still remember stop and think of me. Think of all the things we‘ve shared and seen. Don‘t think about the way things might‘ve been. Think of me, think of me waking silent and resigned. Imagine me trying too hard to put you from my mind. Recall those days, look back on all those times, think of the things we‘ll never do. There will never be a day when I won‘t think of you!
Fran: Very pretty
Balthier: Her name is Lenne, but she’s pretending to be Christine Daae. The ‘victim’ of the Phantom’s affections.
random people: (screaming) The chandelier!
Balthier: What?
Fran: What’s happening, Doctor?
Balthier: That’s not supposed to happen yet! Rose! I mean Martha! I mean Fran! get down!
Fran: Balthier! I-
Balthier: Fran? Fran? Where’d you go?
someone: The Phantom of the Opera is here!
Balthier: Oh, bugger.
