:45:00
Don't slouch, Lucy. Go and talk
to Mrs. Pool. Ask her about her leg.
:45:05
Would Cecil and I be missed
if we went for a walk?
:45:09
I think it would be all right.
Don't get your frock muddied.
:45:32
It's disgusting the way an engagement
is regarded as public property.
:45:37
All those old women smirking.
:45:40
One has to go through it.
They won't notice us much next time.
:45:44
But their whole attitude is wrong.
:45:48
An engagement -
horrid word in the first place -
:45:51
is a private matter
and should be regarded as such.
:45:54
Oh.
:45:57
- There's your philosophizing parson.
- Don't you like Mr. Beebe?
:46:01
I never said so.
I consider him far above the average.
:46:06
Mr. Beebe, I've had a wonderful idea.
:46:08
I'm going to write to our Miss Alans
and ask them to take Sir Harry's villa.
:46:14
Sir Harry deserves a tenant
as vulgar as himself.
:46:18
Oh, Mr. Vyse, he's really very nice.
:46:22
Gentlewomen! Yuck!
:46:24
Acting the little god down here
with his patronage
:46:28
and his sham aesthetics,
and everyone is taken in.
:46:32
I'll write to them,
and if you'd also send a word?
:46:35
Certainly. A highly suitable
addition to our little community.
:46:40
Goodness, how cross you are!
:46:48
It was that miserable tea party
and all those dreadful people.
:46:52
And not being alone with you.
:46:55
Hmm.
