TULLY (calling through door and whistling). I must have some one in the room—Bogie! Bogie! Bogie!

MAMIE. Bertie! Bertram! Come here! (BERTRAM going towards her.) I want to show you something very important.

TULLY (backing away from her). I’ll take your word for it!

MAMIE. It’s the Rajah’s letter. Just the top two hooks, please—as quickly as you can. (Approaching TULLY with her shoulder towards him.)

TULLY. Really, I don’t understand. I’m quite a novice.

MAMIE (annoyed). You don’t want me to tear the thing off?

TULLY (advancing timidly). For heaven’s sake, don’t do that!

MAMIE. Well, pull your socks up, Bertie, and undo the top one.

(TULLY pulls up his socks.)
