Carve. You're so sudden.

Janet. It's sudden or nothing.

Carve. (Holding her hand.) I say—what can you see in me?

Janet. Well, if it comes to that—what can you see in me? (Withdrawing her hand.)

Carve. I—I don't know what it is.... Something.... (Lightly.) I dunno! Everything!

Janet. That's too much. Good-bye! I'll come about this time the day after to-morrow.

Carve. Supposing I have a relapse?

Janet. (At door.) You won't if you do as I tell you.

Carve. But supposing I do?

Janet. Well, you can always telegraph, can't you?
