PAUL. It's the usual place.
ZACK. Me and Martha Wrigley! And everybody listening!
PAUL. Take him with you, Joe.
ZACK (going slowly). Well, I don't favour it at all. I'll do my best for Martha, but I'm a silly best for any girl. I've got no heart in this.
(Mrs. Munning goes up towards Zack. Paul stops her with a gesture. Exit Zack, after Wrigley and Martha.)
MRS. MUNNING (turning angrily.) You're crossing me in this. I've not said much so far because there's time to stop it yet.
PAUL. You won't want to stop it, mother.
MRS. MUNNING. Won't I? I'm not particular fond of Zack, but he's my son as much as you, and I've no taste to see a Munning standing up in church with a daughter of Joe Wrigley's.
PAUL. I've just two things to say to that. The first is that you started it with joking about marriage, and the second's what you're planning now for Virginia and me.
MRS. MUNNING. Virginia?
