Sydney. Yes.

Kit. Right. [He turns from her and goes out.]

Margaret. [Looking up] Was that Kit? Sydney, don’t let him go.

Sydney. Kit! Ki-it!

Kit. [Returning joyfully] Yes! Yes, old thing?

Sydney. [Impassively] Mother wants you.

Margaret. Oh, Kit—would you take this for me? It’s for Mr. Meredith. I expect you’ll meet him, but if not, I want you to take it on. At once, Kit.

Kit. Right, Mrs. Fairfield!

Margaret. [Detaining him] What’s the matter, Kit?

Kit. [His head up] Nothing, Mrs. Fairfield.
