Young Wife
Do you remember the ball at the Manufacturers’ Club?
Young Man
Do I remember it…? I sat beside you through the whole supper—quite close to you. Your husband had champagne…
Young Wife
(Looks at him with a hurt expression)
Young Man
I meant to speak only of the champagne. Emma, would you like a glass of cognac?
Young Wife
Only a drop, but first give me a glass of water.
