- Alice Bright: Mr Higgins. I'm going to tell you the truth. I'm an actress, hiding from the police.
- Sam Higgins: What, you act as bad as all that?
- [repeated line]
- Alice Bright: I'm going to tell you the truth.
- [but she then gives a different reason for being there each time]
- Claff Owen: Opens the door with invisible hands and vanishes.
- Sam Higgins: Don't be silly. How can you vanish if you're invisible? If you're invisible you're vanished before you've started.
- Claff Owen: He's a good boy when he is normal.
- Sam Higgins: Ah, when he's normal. But he ain't normal. I mean, he has these come and go fits; when they come, somebody goes.
- Alice Bright: Mr Higgins, I'm going to tell you the truth. I live nearby in a small village. Life in a small village is very dull, Mr Higgins.
- Sam Higgins: Not with you there, I'll lay a pound to a sausage.
- Alice Bright: Of course I do all I can. I belong to a psychic society. Wales is full of folklore, you know.
- Sam Higgins: Is it?
- Alice Bright: Didn't you know?
- Sam Higgins: No.
- Alice Bright: Now, I've heard this legend about 'the phantom light' and I mean to investigate it for my society.
- Sam Higgins: Well I'm very sorry Miss, but you can't do it on my lighthouse. You see, I got me instructions, and though they mentions a lot o' funny things, they don't mention no women. We've got work to do on a lighthouse, and females is tattoo.
- Sam Higgins: Now listen! We got to act quick. An' don't interrupt!
- Claff Owen: I did not interrupt.
- Sam Higgins: No, but you was going to.
- Claff Owen: I was not!
- Sam Higgins: Well you're doing it now! Shut up!
