LILY and CHARLEY follow him.
MAGGIE runs in quickly and opens the sitting-room window, through which TENNANT can be seen shaking hands again and again with CHARLEY and LILY.
MAGGIE. Good luck!
LESLIE. [shouting through window.] Give my love to What’s-his-name, the Prime Minister!
MAGGIE. [singing.] “For I’ve lately got a notion for to cross the briny ocean.”
LESLIE. [joining.] “And I’m off to Philadelphia in the morning.”
LESLIE drawls out the last word, bursts out laughing and turns away.
MAGGIE. Anybody would think you were excited.
LESLIE. If a man will be a fool, Miss Maggie, he may as well go away a happy fool. A cheer costs nothing. So much for him. Now it’s me.
