- Hey. Pinoke. What's happening to your nose?
- Monsters? Weren't you afraid, Pinocchio?
- No, ma'am, but they tied me in a big sack.
- Pinoke! Your nose is growing!
- So they tied you in a big sack. And where was Sir Jiminy?
- Jiminy? Uh. They put him in a little sack.
- But, Pinoke! I tell you, your nose is branching out like a tree.
- I didn't. They chopped me up into firewood!
- Oh! Oh, look! My nose! What's happened?
- Looks like a plum tree to me.
- Perhaps you haven't been telling the truth, Pinocchio.
- Perhaps?
- Oh, but I have. Every single word!
- Oh! Oh! Please, please help me. I'm awfully sorry.
- You see, Pinocchio, a lie keeps growing and growing until it's as plain as the nose on your face.
