Adol. I wish I’d stayed home!
Sam. It was all your fault that we came. You said there would be lots of nice girls there, and we should be sure to fall in love with ever so many.
Reg. Ha! ha! ha!
Adol. [Scared.] Oh! oh!
Sam. [Clutches Adolphus fearfully.] What was that?
Reg. [Comes forward, smiling. Adolphus R. C. Sammy C. Reginald L. C.] Gentlemen, you seem distressed. Can I serve you?
Sam. [Brightens up suddenly. To Adolphus.] Oh! you coward, to get frightened like that! Why can’t you be brave like me?
Adol. You were just as afraid as I was.
Reg. [Laughs.] Have a smoke? [Offers cigar-case to Sammy.] It will help to quiet your nerves.
