"Who are you?
Where are you taking me?"

"I'm Miss Fleck"

"The Mighty Squelch"

"Doctor Gangle"

"At your service..."

"...And his"

"Come along and follow us"

"Come and follow faster"

"Come along and follow us"

"Come and meet the master
Hurry up and follow us, hurry if you care to
Soon the dark will swallow us, follow if you dare to"

"Is this where Mr. Y lives?"

"This is where he works"

"Step lively, child"

"He is waiting"

"What is this place?"

"This is my realm, illusion's domain
Where music and beauty and art are first rate
Go, look around, while I finish my work"

"May I?"

"What's this?"

"Just a song in my head"

"Go on"

"I think it's beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful notes
Beautiful, beautiful sounds
Don't you agree?
It's beautiful"

This boy...

"So very beautiful"

"This music..."

"Music that comes on control"

"He plays like me..."

"Floating and lovely and bold"

"He's just 10 years old...
10 years old!
My God... my God!"

"Let me show you something, I want to know what you think."

"Have you ever yearned to go
Past the world you think you know?
Been enthralled to the call
Of the beauty underneath?"

"Have you let it draw you in
Past the place where dreams begin?
Felt the full breathless pull
Of the beauty underneath?"

"When the dark unfolds its wings
Do you sense the strangest things?
Things no one would ever guess
Things mere words cannot express?"

"Yes!"

"Do you find yourself beguiled
By the dangerous and wild?
Do you feed on the need
For the beauty underneath?"

"Have you felt your senses surge
And surrendered to the urge?
And been hooked as you looked at the beauty underneath?"

"When you stare behind the night
Can you glimpse its primal might?
Might you hunger to possess
Hunger that you can't repress?"

"Yes!"

"It seems so beautiful
So strange, yet beautiful
Everything's just as you say"

"And he's so beautiful
Perhaps too beautiful
What I suspect cannot be
And yet, somehow, we both see
The very same way"

"Is the music in your head
Have you followed where it led
And been graced with a taste
Of the beauty underneath?"

"Does it fill your every sense
Is it terribly intense?
Tell me you need it, too
Need the beauty underneath"

"When it lifts its voice and sings
Don't you feel amazing things?
Things you know you can't confess
Things you thirst for nonetheless"

"It all so beautiful
Can it be?
Almost too beautiful"

"Do you see what I see?"

"Heavenly!"

"To him it's beautiful
My world is beautiful"

"How can this be what it seems?"

"All of my most secret dreams
Somehow set free"

"You can feel it
Yes!
Come closer
Yes!
You've no fear of the beauty underneath"

"You can face it
Yes!
You can take it
Yes!
You see through to the beauty underneath"

"To the splendor
The splendor
And the glory
Glory
To the truth of the beauty underneath
The beauty underneath"

"You'll accept it
Yes!
You'll embrace it
Yes!
Let me show you the beauty underneath"

"To the splendor
The splendor
And the glory
And the glory
To the truth of the beauty underneath
The beauty underneath"

"You'll accept it
Yes!
You'll embrace it
Yes!"

"Let me show you the beauty under"

Gustave screams and runs to find his mother.
