Eponine’s Errand
Eponine is alone in the square.
Eponine:
Cosette! Now I remember!
Cosette! How can it be?
We were children together
Look what’s become of me…
(Marius returns.)
Good God! Ooh, what a rumpus!
Marius:
That girl, who can she be?
Eponine:
That cop! He’d like to jump us
But he ain’t smart, not he.
Marius:
Eponine, who was that girl?
Eponine:
Some bourgeois two-a-penny thing!
Marius:
Eponine, find her for me!
Eponine:
What will you give me?
Marius:
Anything!
Eponine:
Got you all excited now,
But God knows what you see in her
Ain’t you all delighted now
(She refuses Marius’ money.)
No, I don’t want your money sir…
Marius:
Eponine! Do this for me…
Discover where she lives
But careful how you go
Don’t let your father know
‘Ponine! I’m lost until she’s found!
Eponine:
You see, I told you so!
There’s lots of things I know
(Marius leaves.)
‘Ponine… she knows her way around!
