Liz. That will suit us best, I’m sure. Come, sister.

[Kitty leads the way out, followed by both sisters.

John. I’ll just step outside and see that Jerry’s tending to the horse.

[He hurries out, and Robert is left alone with Rose.

Rose. [Coming towards him and holding out her hands.] O, Robert, is it the same between us as it was last time?

Robert. [Looking at her critically.] You’ve got your hair different or something.
