Snooks. Well, so long. You got my address in case you go dry.
They both smile genially at this pleasantry.
Jerry [opening the door]. All right. I’ll remember.
Snooks goes out. Jerry hesitates—then he opens the door to the up-stairs.
Jerry. Oh, Char-lit!
Charlotte [crossly]. Please keep that door shut. That smell comes right up here. It’ll start my hayfever.
Jerry [genially]. Well, I just wanted to ask you if you’ll take one little cocktail with me.
Charlotte. No! How many times do I have to tell you?
Jerry [crestfallen]. Well, you don’t need to be so disagreeable about it.
