Jim (C.). You have, have you?
Doug. (R.). You vulgaw fellow, how dare you lay your hands on a gentleman!
Jim. Because you forgot to be a gentleman, sir, that's how, and I'll do it every time, too, so you needn't try to come any of them games here.
Jen. (L.). Ain't you ashamed of yourself, Jim? Suppose the gentleman did say I was pretty, what then? There was no occasion for you to show your superiority, and it's entirely out of place. (Aside.) Just as if I should have allowed that jackanapes to kiss me! What stupid things these men are!
Jim. He had no business to do it. He had no business to be so near you; I won't stand by and see it done.
Doug. Weally, this is a most extraordinary thing! Look here, fellow— (Going towards him.)
Jim. Don't call me fellow, sir. (Crossing to L.)
