Act 1, scene 8 Flashcards
…all my favorites for dinner.
Was everything to your liking, Mellersh?
Yes, Frederick, There’s something I need to speak to you about.
May I speak to you about something, Mellersh?
…Mr. Arnott is exhausted.
No. You first, Mellersh.
Do you remember last month your asking me about holidays?
Well, yes. Mellersh. It’s funny you should mention that.
Extra money, I mean.
Taking me, Mellersh?!
Did you hear me? I said that I am taking you on holiday!
That is really the most extraordinary coincidence.
For a rest.
Yes, really most extraordinary. Because I was just about to tell you that I am…going.
Going? Going where?
To Italy.
It is not impossible.
It is not ridiculous.
Listen to me, Rose.
Listen to me, Mellersh. I’ve been invited.
I’ve listened enough.
A friend has invited me. With a home there.
I’ve waited enough.
and I am going.
So we agree then.
I have, Mellersh. I’ve mentioned her to you.
Rose
Rose.
And now i am to believe that you are actually asking me…
I am not asking you anything Mellersh. I’m telling you!
