Geoffrey. I couldn't, old girl; there were reasons—I don't have to tell you I wanted to.
Jinny. I don't know! Was there a pretty girl up there, Geof? I'm sure I shouldn't think her pretty if you were in love with her. I believe I shall be awfully jealous of your wife when you get one!
Geoffrey. Rubbish! Hasn't Jack come back yet?
Jinny. "Come back" from where?
Geoffrey. Brooklyn.
Jinny. Brooklyn! Why, he told me—what did he go there for?
Geoffrey. [Embarrassed.] I don't know if you don't—
Jinny. You do!!
Geoffrey. No—really—I—
Jinny. Oh, it's something to be concealed, then?
