PRIMROSE DEANE.
(Curtseying.) I thank you, fair sir. How very agreeable we've become all of a sudden.
TED MORRIS.
"Become!" Ain't I always agreeable?
PRIMROSE DEANE.
No. Not when you talk about going away and never coming back, and say you hope it will be a long while before you see any of us again.
TED MORRIS.
I—I don't think I said I "hoped" it would be a long while. I think I said I feared it might be.
PRIMROSE DEANE.
Oh, well, it's all the same. You needn't go away at all unless you liked.
