[Starts to get out from under the table, but Coleman enters, so she crawls back.
[Lieutenant Richard Coleman is a handsome, finely built man of about thirty-two. He is a West Pointer, is a good oarsman, a crack shot, and a good fellow all around. No finicking about him, no nerves. Just a sane, healthy

Dick. Hello! Many happy returns, Phil. [Shakes hands.] Where's your Aunt Georgiana! [Silence.] Is she out?
Phil. No, she's under the table!
Christopher and Toots. [Delighted.] She's under the table! She's under the table!
Dick. [Laughing.] What!
Philip. Hide and seek.
