Warren appears at L.

Warren. Kitty, how does that ruffle thing work? I can't get it around my head at all. I don't know the combination.

Kitty. Oh, I must have sewed it together. Can't you get it over your head?

Warren. Not without choking myself.

Kitty. Wait a minute. I'll rip it for you. (Exits L.)

Warren (gets box of cigars and hands it to Googin). Here's a little Christmas present, Googin. They're awfully good. I smoked two of them.

Googin (lights one). Thank ye, sor.

Warren. Don't let my wife see you smoking in here. She doesn't like it.

Googin (chokes, takes cigar from mouth, looks at it). What kind of a stogie is it, Mr. Williams?

Warren. It's pure Havana. Santas Odoriferous.
