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
