SIMON. Godfather says that they sometimes yawn till they get a lock-jaw; that’s why they have just advertised in the papers for somebody to read to them.
FRANK. Read to them!
SIMON. Yes, a young lady.
FRANK. (quickly) Ah, there is a young lady here?
SIMON. No, sir, she hasn’t come yet.
FRANK. What a pity!
SIMON. And they won’t want a young lady now they have engaged me.
FRANK. (laughing) But you are not a young lady.
