ABBOTT: I see you're here for your Hebrew lesson.
COSTELLO: I'm ready to learn.
ABBOT: Now, the first thing you must understand is that Hebrew and English have many words which sound alike, but they do not mean the same thing.
COSTELLO: Sure, I understand.
ABBOT: Now, don't be too quick to say that.
COSTELLO: How stupid do you think I am -- don't answer that. It's simple, some words in Hebrew sound like words in English, but they don't mean the same.
ABBOT: Precisely
COSTELLO: We have that word in English, too. What does it mean in Hebrew?
ABBOT: No, no. Precisely is an English word.
COSTELLO: I didn't come here to learn English, I came to learn Hebrew. So make with the Hebrew.
ABBOT: Fine. Let's start with Mee.
COSTELLO: You.
ABBOT: No, Mee.
COSTELLO: Fine, we'll start with you.
ABBOT: No, we'll start with Mee.
COSTELLO: Okay, have it your way.
ABBOT: Now, Mee is who.
COSTELLO: You is Abbott.
ABBOT: No, no, no. Mee is who.
COSTELLO: You is Abbott.
ABBOT: You don't understand.
COSTELLO: I don't understand? Did you just say me is who?
ABBOT: Yes I did. Mee is who.
COSTELLO: You is Abbott.
ABBOT: No, You Misunderstand what I am saying. Tell me about Mee.
COSTELLO: Well, you're a nice enough guy.
ABBOT: No, no. Tell me about Mee!
COSTELLO: Who?
ABBOT: Precisely.
COSTELLO: Precisely what?
ABBOT: Precisely who.
COSTELLO: It's precisely whom!
ABBOT: No, Mee is who.
COSTELLO: Don't start that again-go on to something else.
ABBOT: All right. Hu is he.
COSTELLO: Who is he?
ABBOT: Yes.
COSTELLO: I don't know. Who is he?
ABBOT: Sure you do. You just said it.
COSTELLO: I just said what?
ABBOT: Hu is he.
COSTELLO: Who is he?
ABBOT: Precisely.
COSTELLO: Again with the precisely! Precisely who?
ABBOT: No, precisely he.
COSTELLO: Precisely he? Who is he?
ABBOT: Precisely!
COSTELLO: And what about me?
ABBOT: Who.
COSTELLO: me, me, me!
ABBOT: Who, who who!
COSTELLO: What are you, an owl? Me! Who is me?
ABBOT: No, Hu is he!
COSTELLO: I don't know I maybe he is me!
ABBOT: No, Hee is she!
COSTELLO: Do his parents know about this? (STARES AT ABBOTT)
ABBOT: About what?
COSTELLO: About he!
ABBOT: What about her?
COSTELLO: That she is he!
ABBOT: No, you've got it wrong-Hee is she!
COSTELLO: Then who is he?
ABBOT: Precisely!
COSTELLO: Who?
ABBOT: He!
COSTELLO: Me?
ABBOT: Who'
COSTELLO: He?
ABBOT: She!
COSTELLO: Who is she?
ABBOT: No, Hu is he.
COSTELLO: I don't care who is he, I want to know who is she?
ABBOT: No, that's not right.
COSTELLO: How can it not be right? I said it. I was standing here when I said it, and I know me.
ABBOT: Who.
COSTELLO: Who?
ABBOT: Precisely!
COSTELLO: Me! Me is that he you are talking about! He is me!
ABBOT: No, Hee is she!
COSTELLO: Wait a Minute, wait a minute! I'm trying to learn a little Hebrew, and now I can't even speak English. Let me review.
ABBOT: Go ahead.
COSTELLO: Now first You want to know me is who.
ABBOT: Correct.
COSTELLO: And then you say who is he.
ABBOT: Absolutely.
COSTELLO: And then you tell me he is she.
ABBOT & COSTELLO: Precisely!
COSTELLO: Now look at this logically. If me is who. And who is he. And he is she. Don't it stand to reason that me is she?
ABBOT: Who?
COSTELLO: She!
ABBOT: That is he!
COSTELLO: Who is he?
ABBOT & COSTELLO: Precisely!
COSTELLO: I have just about had it. You have me confused I want to go home. You know what I want? Ma! ABBOT: What.
COSTELLO: I said ma.
ABBOT: What.
COSTELLO: What are you, deaf? I want Ma!
ABBOT: What!
COSTELLO: Not what, who!
ABBOT: He!
COSTELLO: Not he! Ma is not he!
ABBOT: Of course not! Who is he!
COSTELLO: I don't know. I don't know. I don't care. I don't care who is he, he is she, me is who, ma is what. I just want to go home now and play with my dog.
ABBOT: Fish.
COSTELLO: Fish?
ABBOT: Dag is fish.
COSTELLO: That's all, I'm outta here.
