JOHN. I’m sure both Mr. and Mrs. Ayers would like you to consult before anything is said or done in the matter. The dining-room is at your service.
PAMELA (crossing to and opening door L.). Yes—yes—of course.
DOCTOR. Well, if you particularly wish it, I’ll see Mr. Trippett.
PAMELA. This way, doctor.
DOCTOR. I thank you, madam, I thank you.
(DOCTOR exits, followed by PAMELA. JOHN places chair L.C. under table. TULLY jumps up.)
TULLY. I’ve had enough of this! I’m going mad!
JOHN. Bertram! Bertram!
TULLY. Bertram be damned! (Holds his mouth instantly.)
JOHN (crosses to TULLY). I think you’re very ungrateful. Just as everything’s going so splendidly.
