Gossip [taking the glass and looking through]. Oh, he has kissed her! Isn’t that dreadful? But I guess the little Fairy Queen won’t care, now that the Prince has come back.
Billy Bundy [taking the glass]. Let me see. I don’t believe he kissed her at all. He wouldn’t do such a thing. It is very wrong to think bad things about people which never happen. [Flossie and Gossip laugh.]
Billy Bundy. Hush, they have reached home.
Santa Claus [enters, with the Old Lady]. Where is the Fairy Queen?
Gossip. The Fairy Prince has returned, and the Queen has gone off with him.
Old Lady. It’s too bad. Do you intend to get a divorce?
Santa Claus. I would like to, but I am too tender-hearted. I must protect the Queen from the scandal-mongers.
Flossie Fixit [looking through window]. Oh, the Queen and the Prince are coming!
Old Lady [looking through window]. There is my long lost son.
Santa Claus. Let’s hide, just for fun.
