Gertie.

I suppose you never did the washing up in England. Too grand?

Norah.

I don’t suppose anyone would wash up if they could help it. It’s not very amusing.

Gertie.

You always want to be amused.

Norah.

No. But I want to be happy.

Gertie.

Well, you’ve got a room over your head and a comfortable bed to sleep in, three good meals a day, and plenty to do; that’s all anybody wants to make them happy, I guess.
