Robert 'Bibi' Bonnard:
[crying] I won't go back to school! I'll never go back to school! I didn't do it-it isn't fair! Why do I have to tell lies to escape a beating?

Jacques Bonnard:
What-what's the matter? What happened? What is it at that school? Maman! Who beat you?

Susan Bonnard:
Beating? What beating?

Jacques Bonnard:
Come on, Bibi. Now, please, stop crying and tell us, what happened?

Uncle Desmond Bonnard:
What is this of a beating?

Robert 'Bibi' Bonnard:
In school, the principal finds a dirty picture. It's from my 'Gay Paree' which I have taken there. [Susan looks up at the brothers, reproachfully. The brothers look embarrassed]

Uncle Desmond Bonnard:
Now, wait. They are not dirty pictures in Le Gay Paree. They are, it is true, pictures of women with few clothes, but this is not dirty! Ah, no!

Robert 'Bibi' Bonnard:

Susan Bonnard:

Jacques Bonnard:
This is not dirty.

Robert 'Bibi' Bonnard:

Uncle Desmond Bonnard:
This is... indelicate, but it is still not dirty.

Robert 'Bibi' Bonnard:
But also with the pencil, many things have been added.

Uncle Louis Bonnard:
THIS could be dirty.
