TENTH SCENE.
THE SAME. FRAU VON DROSSE.
Frau von Drosse.
Ah--Herr von Hallerpfort! (He kisses her hand.) How does this happen? Two lieutenants in the house at the same time--if that doesn't bring luck!
Fritz (quickly).
We have orders together, mamma.
Hallerpfort.
And alas, madam, we have to be off this very minute.
Frau von Drosse.
How is that? Then I don't have my full hour? And now everything is so beautifully arranged.... Fritz, my dear Hallerpfort--just a bite, won't you?... Richard, dear, come to my aid.
