Katie
By the way, how do you know she isn't here?
-
Calbury
She?
-
Katie
The girl the Evening News said you were going to marry?
-
Calbury
Oh, yes. I saw that. Me and Penelope Fitzdouglas. Isn't it ridiculous?
-
Katie (annoyed)
Sidesplitting.
-
Katie
Sorry, am I going too fast for you?
-
Chips
My dear young lady, I could easily go just as fast as you if I cared to risk a broken ankle and be carried back on a stretcher. It's extremely foolish to leap around in a ruined circus like a mountain goat. Especially in those shoes. These stones are treacherous.
-
Katie
Yes, well, you're very active for your age!
-
Chips
Since you cannot conceivably know what my age is, your most flattering compliment must be based on a somewhat conjectural premise.
-
Katie
You've done it again. Now that's three times you've made me laugh. And only this morning I thought I'd never laugh again. I suppose it's your being a schoolmaster.
-
Chips
I fail to see what is so laughable about that.
-
Katie
Well, no, it's not laughable. One doesn't laugh at people only because they're funny. Not some people. C'mon...there's so much to see before the sun goes down on us...
-
Katie
What does that mean?
-
Chips
Gnothe seauthon. Know yourself. The watchword of Apollo.
-
Katie
The god of prophecy?
-
Chips
Among other things...
-
Katie
Know yourself. That's quite a watchword. Gnothe seauthon.
-
Katie
I'm going to ask Apollo a question.
-
Chips
You mustn't ask a personal question, well, not a specific one like uh...
-
Katie
Like "Will Bill Calbury come back to me?" No (sighs), I won't bore Apollo with that, I promise you.
