Steven. But I gave Georgiana my word.
Coast. Of course she got that promise out of you because she thought you'd lose again.
Steven. Yes, but my word is my word.
Coast. Do you suppose she'd mind, if you won, won back Louise's money, won back the girl's happiness?
Steven. Suppose I tell her what you can do and ask her to let me off this once?
Coast. No, women don't understand business. She wouldn't realize I can know I'd win, any more than you feel sure and lose.
Steven. Yes, it would do no good to ask her.
Coast. Too bad, because I'd guarantee you
wouldn't lose, not this deal. Of course I wouldn't be responsible for any future transaction.
Steven. But I'd be satisfied with this one, if I got back my losses.
