Captain von Trapp:
Now, Fraulein. I want a truthful answer from you.
Maria: Yes, Captain? Captain von Trapp: Is it possible - or could I have just imagined it - have my children by any chance been climbing trees today? Maria: Yes, Captain. Captain von Trapp: I see. And where, may I ask, did they get these... ummm... Maria: Play clothes. Captain von Trapp: Oh, is that what you call them? Maria: I made them. From the drapes that used to hang in my bedroom. Captain von Trapp: Drapes? Maria: They still have plenty of wear left. The children have been everywhere in them. Captain von Trapp: Do you mean to tell me that my children have been roaming about Salzburg dressed up in nothing but some old drapes? Maria: Mmm-hmmm. And having a marvelous time!
