In the lurch, Phillip! How in the lurch? You’re only asking a longer leave than usual.
Phillip
There, there. I don’t want you to worry your dear head with politics. The new doctor will be here any minute now. That’s far more important.
Mrs. Lattin
I would rather know exactly. It doesn’t worry me.
Phillip
It’s all been arranged most satisfactorily, dear; and I’m very pleased. So you’re pleased with me—eh?
Mrs. Lattin
Phillip—what has been arranged?
