Trippet
Not a slice!
Dudley Ah, if only I were young again. You'd give me the keys to the wine cellar.
Trippet
I wouldn't bet on that.
Peacock (entering and seeing Dudley on his knees to Trippet) Ah, Dudley! How passionate you are! My God! That's no way to prepare for an enema. Come along, return to your room and try to calm yourself while waiting for the return of Mr. Flem. (Dudley leaves) That's funny, really.
Trippet
Do you have any idea what he wanted from me?
Peacock
It's not really difficult to figure out. Dirty old gallows-bird.
Trippet He was trying to cajole me with his sweet talk and passionate gestures—but I'm not that kind of woman.
Peacock
Good, Trippet. Don't give in to human weakness.
Trippet
I'd let him croak before he could have any.
Peacock Now wait a minute—if he shows any signs of croaking! You must satisfy him, Trippet! Ahem! I intend that he live a long life.
