Cousin Sidney Quotes in Tom Sawyer (1973)

[after Tom Sawyer in the house, Sid heard a noise]

Cousin Sidney: Tom's home!

Cousin Mary: You little beast!

[after Tom comes home, Aunt Polly grabs his ear, takes him outside to the laundry with Cousin Sidney and Mary]

Aunt Polly: Whiskey! The stinking smell of whiskey in my house! Now, give me that shirt.

[He gives the shirt to her]

Tom Sawyer: But, it saved Muff's leg! You see this snake? It was... It was just jumped out from under the rock, bit Muff's part of a leg and slithered away. Left him lying in the dirt, writhing and screaming, close to death!

Aunt Polly: Lies, lies and more lies!

Cousin Sidney: What kind of snake?

Aunt Polly: Sidney, you stay out of this. Mary?

Tom Sawyer: But, this stranger came along with this snake remedy and he was pouring on Muff's leg. He was kicking so that some of it just happened to splash on my shirt and it was just healed up like magic. Can't you see the fang marks.

Aunt Polly: Fang marks?

[grabs him, slap him]

Aunt Polly: Upstairs, no supper. Upstairs.

Tom Sawyer: But, Aunt Polly...

[sighs, he goes back inside, upstairs to bed, She washes the shirt in the laundry]

Cousin Sidney: Snakebite remedy. That's a good one.

Aunt Polly: Yes, it was.
