IDA. (curtseys)
The man is noble, strong and brave;
Woman should be his loving slave.
SUSAN. That notion's in its little grave!
GRANDMA. Very good, my darlings, (she rises) Edith, yesterday you could not tell me all the ingredients of bread. Do you know now what you omitted?
EDITH. Yes, Grandma Gregg. Add a cup of butter.
GRANDMA. Correct. IDA, if you had a husband and he came home very late, what would you do?
IDA. (curtseys) I would pretend to be fast, fast asleep.
GRANDMA. Yes. And what would you say the next morning?
IDA. "Good morning, dear. I was asleep when you came in. I hope you had a pleasant evening."
