Mary. You don’t know how great it is. (Mary starts for door) Now, I’ve a big surprise for you. Rodney’s not at the office—he’s in there.
Martin. What do you mean?
Mary. Only that I thought I’d handle you less sentimentally than he would. You see, once before I spoiled Rodney’s plan. This time I thought I ought to fix it up for him. (Opening door) Rodney—Ambrose.
Martin. Say, what is all this?
(Rodney and Peale enter.)
Rodney. Hello, father!
Mary. Rodney, it’s all settled. Your father has gone in with us. I’ve the contract.
Rodney. Then we can get some soap!
Martin. All you want.
Rodney. Then I don’t care what the arrangement is—now that we can make good—twenty per cent of the profits, and any old salary.
