Ah, your mother wasn't an actress.
Imogen.
No.
Rose.
Mine was, and I remember her saying to me once, "Rose, if ever you have the chance, get out of it."
Imogen.

Rose.
Yes. "Get out of it," mother said; "if ever a good man comes along, and offers to marry you and to take you off the stage, seize the chance—get out of it."
