Eliza worked with Professor Higgins for hours every day, learning to speak the English language the way a lady would speak it.0:04
Your vowels sound terrible.0:13
This is the best I can do.0:19
What am I to do with you?0:24
It was hard work, and Eliza often became frustrated and angry.0:26
However, one day, Professor Higgins decided that it was time to test Eliza by introducing her to some upper class people at his mother's house.0:30
Good afternoon, Mother.0:40
What are you doing here?0:41
Henry, you know this is the day when I invite people to tea and you offend all my friends.0:43
You say the wrong things to them and then they never want to visit me again.0:51
You know I'm not good at small talk.0:56
Anyway, there's a girl I want you and your friends to meet.0:59
Oh, Henry, do you mean that you've fallen in love at last?1:02
I haven't fallen in love.1:08
This girl is a project.1:10
She's a common flower girl.1:14
I've picked her off the street and I'm teaching her to speak like a lady.1:16
I want her to meet other upper class people.1:20
I've taught her to speak properly.1:25
And I've told her only to talk about the weather and everybody's health.1:27
It will be quite safe.1:31
So you say she speaks properly now?1:33
Her English is almost as good as your French.1:35
This is satisfactory.1:38
Well, it is and it isn't.1:40
Well, she pronounces all her words properly.1:44
The trouble is, you have to think not only about how a girl pronounces words, but also what words she pronounces.1:47
Henry, your guests are here.1:56
Mrs. Higgins, please show them in.1:59
This is my son, Henry.2:07
Colonel Pickering is here.2:12
Do come in, Colonel, let me introduce you to the Einsford Hills.2:14
What on earth are we going to talk about until she comes?2:22
What on earth do I know of philosophy or poetry or of manners?2:25
She looks quite impressive, doesn't she?2:33
Ah, Mother, this is Eliza.2:38
This is Mrs. Eynsford Hill, her daughter Clara, and her son, Freddy.2:44
Will it rain, do you think?2:50
There is no great change in the barometrical situation.2:52
What is wrong with that, young man?2:58
I bet I got it right.3:00
I hope it won't turn cold.3:02
Our whole family suffer from influenza when the weather turns cold.3:04
My aunt died of influenza.3:08
At least that's what they said.3:11
If you ask me, they did her in.3:13
What on earth do you mean, my dear?3:18
It means to kill someone.3:23
Do you mean that you think someone killed your aunt?3:26
Yes, she was as strong as a horse.3:30
Ain't no way she died of influenza.3:32
Oh, that's terribly funny.3:38
What are you laughing at?3:41
I haven't said anything funny, have I?3:42
Oh, I really must go.3:49
Well, I really don't think I can manage the new slang.3:55
Ugh, Mother, people would think we're so old fashioned if you don't get used to it.3:59
It's time for us to go.4:04
We have another home to visit this afternoon.4:06
Do visit me again on one of my at home days.4:10
Freddy, you are welcome to meet Miss Dolittle here again.4:14
And Clara, make sure you try out that new slang at the next home you visit.4:19
Well, mother, what do you think?4:28
Of course she's not a lady.4:33
She's beautiful and her pronunciation is perfect.4:36
But every word that comes out of her mouth shows that she is still a common flower girl.4:39
Do you think we can do something about her language?4:44
Not while Henry is her teacher.4:48
His language is hardly a good example.4:50
Well, perhaps you're right.4:53
Now, you two, I want you to tell me exactly how things are at Wimpole Street.4:56
Oh, I have moved there.5:00
Henry and I are working together on Indian dialects.5:03
Yes, I know all that.5:06
But where does the girl live?5:08
Well, she lives with us, of course.5:10
But is she a servant?5:14
Is she the lady of the house?5:15
Who exactly is Eliza?5:18
I think I know what you mean.5:20
All I know is that the girl is useful.5:25
Yes, she knows where everything is.5:28
She makes a note of all my appointments and so on.5:31
Don't you realise that when Eliza walked into Wimpole street, she brought a problem with her?5:36
The problem of what to do with her once you finish your lessons?5:41
Well, that's no problem at all.5:45
She can go her own way with all the advantages I have given her.5:48
She will have all the manners and habits of a fine lady.5:54
But she will not have a fine lady's money.5:57
Well, find her some employment.6:02
Oh, don't worry, Mrs. Higgins.6:03
We'll find her something to do.6:06
Well, Mother, we must go.6:09
Yes, we have to prepare Eliza for her visit to the ambassador's party.6:11
The two men only had a few weeks to turn their pupil into a proper lady, and they were determined to make the most of the time they had left.6:17
You may think you've got time to kill but don't forget Time won't stand still Clock is ticking, Seconds pass Tomorrow always comes too fast Clock is ticking, Seconds pass Tomorrow always comes too fast6:38
Time is precious so make haste Time?6:59
Time isn't something you should wait Every second of every day Is yours to use in your own way7:02
don't hang around, don't hesitate the next moment may be too late the minute keep slipping away so make the most of every day the minutes keep slipping away so make the most of every day7:30
Time is precious so make haste Time isn't something you should wait Every second of every day Is yours to use in your own way.7:51
