Mrs. Lovett: Barker, his name was. Benjamin Barker.

Sweeney Todd: What was his crime?

Mrs. Lovett: Foolishness.

Sweeney Todd: You have a room over the shop, don't you? If times are so hard, why don't you rent it out?

Mrs. Lovett: People think it's haunted.

Sweeney Todd: Haunted?

Mrs. Lovett: Yeah. And who's to say they're wrong? You see, years ago, something happened up there. Something not very nice.

Sweeney Todd: No! Not Barker. That man is dead. It's Todd, now. Sweeney Todd. And he shall have his revenge...

Anthony Hope: Is everything alright Mister Todd?

Sweeney Todd: My mind is far from easy, in these once familiar streets I feel shadows... everywhere.

Anthony Hope: Shadows?

Sweeney Todd: Ghosts.

Mrs. Lovett: You're barking mad! Killing a man what done ya no harm!

Sweeney Todd: He recognised me from the old days. Tried to blackmail me. Half me earnings.

Mrs. Lovett: Oh, well that's a different matter then. For a moment there I thought you lost your marbles. Ugh! All that blood. Poor bugger. Oh well!

Judge Turpin: Oh yes... such practices. The Geishas of Japan, the concubines of Siam, the catamites of Greece, the harlots of India. I have them all here, drawings of them. Everything you've ever dreamed of doing with a woman. Would you like to see?

Anthony Hope: I think there's been some mistake.

Judge Turpin: I think not. You gandered at my ward, Johanna. You gandered at her. YES, sir, you gandered!

Anthony Hope: I meant no harm.

Judge Turpin: Your meaning is immaterial. Mark me! If I see your face again on this street, you'll rue the day you were born.
