Treasure Island Quote

Captain Abraham Smollett: [shouting flabergasted] Who hired this crew? This is undoubtedly the seediest bunch of cutthroats, villains and scoundrels I have ever seen, so who hired them?
[Everyone points at Young Squire Trelawney, who in turn points at his finger]

Captain Abraham Smollett: Your finger hired the crew?

Squire Trelawney: No, that's silly. The man who *lives* in my finger hired the crew: Mr. Bimbo.
[Holds finger to ear]

Captain Abraham Smollett: A cook? And a guy who lives in a bear's finger?

Squire Trelawney: Exactly!

Captain Abraham Smollett: [Smollet and Mr. Erroll sigh heavily] I'm starting to worry about this voyage.

Mr. Samuel Erroll: Mm-hmm...
