MAMIE (very amused all the time). Ripping, isn’t it?

TULLY. Yes, isn’t it?

MAMIE. Are you married?

TULLY. No, I regret to say.

MAMIE. A bit of luck in store for some one.

TULLY. Oh, thank you!

MAMIE. I expect you have a gay old time.

TULLY (twiddling his fingers down his leg). No, not so very gay. . . .

MAMIE. I know—you’re a fly-by-night.

TULLY. No, I assure you all my people are most respectable.
