Jarvis. Snapped the blade. Now how am I going to cut a hole in that trunk?
Princess. (Crossing to dresser) Will my shears do?
Jarvis. If they are not too large. Where are they? (Princess gives Jarvis shears.) Thank you. What time does the boat sail?
Princess. Nine o'clock.
Jarvis. Good—that will give Rusty time to get aboard with these trays and my baggage.
Princess. We've ten minutes before they call for the trunk. (Knock at door 6. Princess looks at Jarvis, who makes gesture cautioning silence and exits door l. Princess crosses and opens door.) Come in, please.
Rusty. (Enter across center) Where's Marse Warren——? (Enter Jarvis across to Rusty.) Lord bless you, Marse Warren—I certainly thought he got you!
Jarvis. (Patting Rusty on the back) Never mind what you thought. Help me with these—it's ten minutes to six—we sail for Europe in three hours.
Rusty. Three hours! Good Lord! You mean we——
Jarvis. Yes, you and I. What are we going to wrap these in? (Picking up trays.)
