Sladder: Now, Splurge, we must do some business.

Splurge: Yes, sir.

Sladder: Sit down, Splurge.

Splurge: Thank you, sir.

Sladder: Splurge, I am going to say to you now, what I couldn't talk about with all those gardeners hanging about. And, by the way, Splurge, haven't we bought rather too many gardeners?

Splurge: No, sir. The Earl of Etheldune has seven; we had to go one better than him, sir.

Sladder: Certainly, Splurge, certainly.

Splurge: So I bought ten for you, sir, to be on the safe side.

Sladder: Ah, quite right, Splurge, quite right. There seemed to be rather a lot, but that's quite right. Well, now to business.

Splurge: Yes, sir.
