Dialogue


“Sometimes I miss her,” TweedleDum said to TweedleDee. “Do you think she might come back?”

“Hard to say. One never knows about these things.”

“No one ever comes to visit us any more.”

“The Queen was here just the other day.”

“Oh, which one?”

“I forget. I never CAN keep them straight.”

“What did she want?”

“She asked about you.”

“Oh?”

“She said, ‘Where the hell is that blockhead TweedleDum?’

I said I didn’t know.”

“She did?”

“Yes.”

"I thought YOU were TweedleDum.”

“No.”

“Oh. Are you quite sure?”

“Quite.”

“That’s odd! I could have sworn I had a dim memory of being TweedleDee at one time.”

“It IS hard to keep track when you’re just a figment in someone else’s dream.”

“What?”

“Nothing.”
