The Brighton united twins -- A surprising gift for showmanship -- Nowhere else under the sun -- A total absence of synchrony -- Betwixt the two, there ain't so much as a farthing's worth of self-pity -- A slip of mother nature's hand -- Strangely wise and filled with unvoiced thoughts -- The act contains nothing repellent or gruesome -- Not a trifling sum -- By wiles and conceits -- A four-sided love triangle -- Freedom was the most important -- They were just average girls -- How to manage a bride when her sister is present on all occasions -- Too bad only one of them went for boys -- She won't bother us any more than a kitty sleeping on the other pillow -- People get badly hurt by love sometimes -- Be gracious under any circumstances -- Their phone was not going to stop ringing -- Scared, shaking, hungry little puppies -- Those days are now over, over forever.
