CHARLEY. Lil—I. . . .
LILY. You are pleased! But of course you are.
CHARLEY. Of course, dear.
LILY. Isn’t it lovely to think of! And can’t you imagine mother as grandmamma! Won’t she be a fuss! Why, you’re quite overcome. There! Go away and get ready. You didn’t open your letters. There’s the door. I suppose it’s Maggie back.
LILY goes out, and re-enters a moment after with MAGGIE.
They meet CHARLEY going out, and MAGGIE, looking at him almost stops him.
MAGGIE. What have you been saying to Charley, Lil?
LILY. Why?
MAGGIE. I thought he looked a little—upset. . . .
LILY. He is rather. He’s quite overcome, in fact. But then he would be, of course.
