Tupper. I dunno, sir—give it up.
Plant. No prevarications! You saw the two young ladies.
Doctor. (surprised) Two young ladies! I see now!
Tupper. Are you their father, sir? I didn't think you was old enough.
Plant. (pleased, releases him, pats his head) Good lad! (crosses down L.)
Doctor. Where have they gone, Tupper?
Tupper, I dunno, sir—they was fetched.
Plant. Fetched? Who by? (rushing at Tupper furiously)
Tupper. I dunno, sir, two gentlemen—they didn't leave no name, they simply come, saw the ladies—-and carried 'em off.
(Bus.—Plant threatening Tupper—Tupper arm up.)
