Sydney. [With a sudden spurt of suspicion] Kit! What colour are mine?

Kit. [Helplessly] Oh, er—oh—

Sydney. [Terribly] Kit! What colour are mine? [Relenting] Look at my frock, you donkey! What do you suppose I wear blue for? So Alice has got blue eyes!

Kit. How do you know?

Sydney. I know you, Kit. You’re conservative.

Kit. As a matter of fact, she isn’t unlike you. That’s what made me talk to her.

Sydney. Oh, you’ve talked to her?

Kit. [Warming] Oh, yes—quite a lot. She’s a friend of my sister’s.

Sydney. She always is.

Kit. What d’you mean—“she always is”? I tell you I’ve only met her four times. I can’t make you out.
