HETTY. And we’ve such a nice boat, Mr. Skruff!
FLOR. You can paddle yourself about in it for hours, Mr. Skruff!
HETTY. Yes, the longer the better, Mr. Skruff!
GRITTY. Come along, Sammy! (twisting SKRUFF round—SKRUFF resisting).
HETTY. Good-bye, Mr. Skruff!
FLOR. Ta, ta, Mr. Skruff! (GRITTY drags SKRUFF off, struggling at R.)
FLOR. Well, Hetty?
HETTY. Well, Florence?
FLOR. Were you ever introduced to such an objectionable individual before?
HETTY. Never! and the creature evidently shows symptoms of falling in love.
