LEONARD. I had forgotten about George Truefit.

MARY. I hadn’t.

LEONARD. My rival, the milkman, isn’t he?

MARY. Yes, he’s a milkman.

LEONARD. There’s something rather piquant in this. I wonder whether George Truefit would appreciate it. I suppose he wouldn’t poison the milk?

MARY. Poison the milk!

LEONARD. No, I am getting a bit heavy-handed. That’s stupid. What is he like? What’s George like?

MARY. He’s—he’s—you know where you’ve got him.

LEONARD. A fine fellow, is he?
