H——Mrs.Hughes(the Housekeeper) C——Mr.Carson(the Butler)
H: They’ve all gone?
C: They have, thank the Lord 1.
H: Oh, what about the lawyer?
C: Oh, he was the first away. Didn’t even stay for the luncheon 2.
H: I wish they’d made their minds up. Gwen’s put clean sheets on the Blue Room bed. Now she’ll just have to strip 3 it again.
C: Can’t you leave it for the next guest?
H: Well, only if you don’t tell. So, has it all been settled?
C: No. I don’t know if anything’s been settled. There’s a fellow in Manchester with claims to the title. I gather, but it’s all a long way from settled.
H: You mustn’t take it personally.
C: No, I do take it personally, Mrs. Hughes. I can’t stand by and watch our family threatened with a loss of all they hold dear.
H: They are not our family.
C: Well, they’re all the family I’ve got. I beg your pardon.
H: Do you ever wish you’d gone another way? Worked in a shop or a factory? Had a wife and children?
C: Do you?
H: I don’t know. Maybe. Sometimes.
