BERTHA
What gallantry!
MONTY
It was. The beastly thing took about half an hour. By the time it was over we seemed to have known each other for a lifetime (looks at watch). Two minutes is up. Time to start, Bertha.
BERTHA
It isn’t.
MONTY
It is. You’ll be late for dressing to a certainty if you don’t go.
BERTHA
I like that. I can dress as quickly as you if it comes to that.
