MitYS: hold it right there, seventeen!
JESSE: you!
MitYS: me! Where's your little friend? Oh, who am I fooling? This wood is now mine.
JESSE: what?
MitYS: why don't you show me what you've been hiding?
JESSE: I- I have no idea what you're talking about.
MitYS: that simply is not true. Once upon a time, once upon a time- started just like that. My granny told me a story- how that woman loved to gab!
JESSE: what does this have to do with me?
MitYS: only everything. Said there was a man with a wife and sons, and the story goes their beauty froze. Sound like anyone familiar, or should I take a stab?
JESSE: you don't know a thing about me.
MitYS: I know you know where the spring is, so why don't you show it to me?
JESSE: Miles! It's him! This is the man!
MILES: hold it right there!
MAE: Miles, no!
MitYS: oh my God, it's all of ya! The tale's come to life, just like my granny said!
JESSE: Ma, he knows the secret.
MitYS: and I've been guarding it with my life! My lips are sealed, Granny didn't raise a snitch! I can make you filthy rich! We'll bottle the water and sell it for a fee; split the profit equally.
MILES: you're mad!
ANGUS: we would never!
MAE: we just want to live our lives in peace!
MitYS: what is wrong with you people?! You could be sultans! You could have kingdoms! Did you not think of this before? If you could put a price on eternal life, they'd pay anything and more! Just lead me to the water!
JESSE: here. Take this vial. Just let her go!
MitYS: oh my God. There it is. Today is the day...
JESSE: you take this.
MitYS: the waiting is over...
JESSE: and... I'll show you the spring.
MitYS: the answer's so simple, so perfectly pure...
JESSE: please, let her go.
MitYS: the secret to eternal life and now I'll never-
MAE: no!!
