Frankie: You began it.
John: Somebody asked me to rearrange the world; and I’m doing it. I certainly wouldn’t sweep away all existing marriage laws all at once——
Colin: When are we coming to what you would do?
John: I should go all out for a much larger tolerance; I should allow certain special relationships, within the present system, to be open and decent and honourable.
Frankie: There is something else.
Gwen: What?
Frankie: ... It’s difficult to say.
Colin: Good heavens! Somebody’s found something they can’t say. It must be awful.
Gwen: Go on, Frankie.
