EPONINE   'Parnasse, what are you doing   So far out of our patch?      MONTPARNASSE   This house, we're going to do it   Rich man, plenty of scratch   You remember he's the one   Who got away the other day   Got a number on his chest   Perhaps a fortune put away!      EPONINE   Oh Lord, somebody help me!   Dear God, what'll I do?   He'll think this is an ambush   He'll think I'm in it too!      What'll I do, what'll I say?   I've got to warn them here   I've got to find a way.      (Thenardier arrives with the rest of his gang)      THENARDIER   This is his lair   I've seen the old fox around   He keeps himself to himself   He's staying close to the ground   I smell profit here!      Ten years ago   He came and paid for Cosette   I let her go for a song   It's time we settled the debt   This'll cost him dear      BRUJON   What do I care   Who you should rob?   Gimme me my share   Finish the job!      THENARDIER   You shut your mouth   Give me your hand      BRUJON   (catching sight of Eponine)   What have we here?      THENARDIER   (not recognizing her)   Who is this hussy?      BABET   It's your brat Eponine   Don't you know your own kid   Why's she hanging about you?      THENARDIER   Eponine, get on home   You're not needed in this   We're enough here without you      EPONINE   I know this house   I tell you there's nothing here for you   Just the old man and the girl   They live ordinary lives      THENARDIER   Don't interfere   You've got some gall   Take care, young miss,   You've got a lot to say!      BRUJON   She's going soft      CLAQUESOUS   Happens to all      MONTPARNASSE   Go home, 'Ponine,   Go home, you're in the way      EPONINE   I'm gonna scream, I'm gonna warn them here.      THENARDIER   One little scream and you'll regret it for a year.      CLAQUESOUS   What a palaver   What an absolute treat   To watch a cat and its father   Pick a bone in the street      BRUJON   Not a sound out of you!      EPONINE   Well I told you I'd do it, told you I'd do it...      (She screams)      THENARDIER   You wait my girl, you'll rue this night   I'll make you scream, you'll scream all right   Leave her to me, don't wait around   Make for the sewers, go underground!      (The gang scatters. Marius and Cosette run back into the garden and he hurriedly introduces Eponine before she takes   off)      MARIUS   It was your cry sent them away   Once more 'Ponine saving the day   Dearest Cosette - my friend 'Ponine   Brought me to you, showed me the way!   Someone is near   Let's not be seen   Somebody's here!      (Marius leaves quickly as Valjean enters)      VALJEAN   My God, Cosette!   I heard a cry in the dark   I heard the shout of angry voices in the street.      COSETTE   That was my cry you heard, Papa,   I was afraid of what they'd do.   They ran away when they heard my cry.      VALJEAN   Cosette, my child, what will become of you?      COSETTE   Three men I saw beyond the wall   Three men in shadow moving fast      JAVERT   This is a warning to us all   These are the shadows of the past      Must be Javert!   He's found my cover at last!   I've got to get Cosette away   Before they return!      We must get away from shadows   They will never let us be   Tomorrow to Calais...   And then a ship across the sea!      Hurry, Cosette, prepare to leave and say no more,   Tomorrow we'll away!   Hurry, Cosette, it's time to close another door   And live another day!
