Engleesh call-a the Speetfire. Si! comprendo? So I-a 'elped 'er out with the
immigration-a, no! What are-a friends for? eh!
Now, the debt-a this, an' the debt-a that. Too much. Too much-a
headache-a. So I-a go. More time for Bunga! Bunga! Heh! Heh! My-a fillies
are waiting. An'-a I wan-a to be young again.
Easy! I'ave-a plastic man ... I mean-a surgeon. 'e stick hair, pull face -- no
