Austin. My dear girl, it's the only answer I can give you.
Jinny. When you are through I have something for you!
Austin. What?
Jinny. I'll give it to you when you have finished.
Austin. I'm ready. [He rises. Jinny rises too, and gives him the telegram with the torn tickets on top, and then rings the bell, at Right.] What are these torn papers?
Jinny. Our theatre tickets!
[He looks at her.
Austin. And when did this telegram come?
Jinny. This afternoon.
