Fagin: Sorry, Bill, but we have a problem.
Fagin: Oliver will probably tell the police where we are and what we do.
Mr Sikes: We need to speak to him quickly. The police don't know Nancy, so she can go and find out what's happened.
Nancy: A police officer told me that he went somewhere in a coach with a gentleman called Mr Brownlow.
Fagin: We must find out where he is before he tells anyone about us!
Go and find Oliver. Don't stop until you find him, not even for a minute.
