Charlie. I want to know where the deuce they get their men from.
Algy. I fancy they discover them in the City.
Jack. I never met—such shocking people before.
Capt. O. Too dreadful for words. I could only conclude they must have been relations. [Roars of laughter.
Jack. By the way, did you notice that there was a "bounder" who was reversing?
Uninvited M. (with great indignation). No!!!
Jack. I tell you it's a positive fact—I know it to my cost; for I was dancing with that youngest daughter, you know—the one who has the fluffy fringe over her forehead—and the brute bounced against us, and sent us flying. Never even apologised. If I could have got him outside, I declare I would have given him a deuced good hiding. A man like that ought to be kicked.
Uninvited M. Were the women any better?
Algy. Well, if you call Mrs. DASH any better!
Uninvited M. (with tragic intensity). You don't mean to say she was there!
