D'you mean to say...?
Captain Montgomerie.
I will be quite frank with you. I should never have allowed Gerald to lose so much money which there was no likelihood of his being able to pay, if I had not thought it earned me some claim upon your gratitude.
Lady Frederick.
[Shortly.] Gerald will pay every penny he owes you to-morrow.
Captain Montgomerie.
[Blandly.] Where d'you suppose he'll get it?
Lady Frederick.
I have no doubt I shall be able to manage something.
Captain Montgomerie.
