Reminiscnet of Mr. Deltoid's "Yes?" from (Stanley
Kubrick's, at least) A Clockwork Orange (1971) ...
INT. EM'S BEDROOM – DAY
Alex comes out of his room and finds P.R. Deltoid
sitting on bed in parent's room.
ALEX
Hi, hi, hi there, Mr. Deltoid, funny surprise to see
you here.
DELTOID
Ah, Alex boy, awake at last, yes? I met your mother on
the way to work, yes? She gave me the key. She said
something about a pain somewhere... hence not at
school , yes?
ALEX
A rather intolerable pain in the head, brother, sir. I
think it should be clear by this afterlunch.
DELTOID
Oh, or certainly by this evening, yes? The evening's a
great time, isn't it, Alex boy? ...
