24
They need a lot of sleep, those big fellows
They must- then at one, with Father and Mother and Dinah- Then at two, then at three- every hour on the hour. We fought like wolves on the way home
25
I hope you explained
Certainly not. He should have known. He was extremely rude. You'd have thought I'd been out with Dexter.- I wonder where Dext was? I half expected him to- I don't like the look behind Dexter's eyes, Sandy. It makes me sad.
26
Don't be sad, Tracy
Oh, Sandy, if you knew how I envy you and Sue that darling fat creature you've just produced-
27
You'll probably have four or five of your own any day now
Six! Oh, I hope- I do hope- I hope I'm good for something besides knocking out golf balls and putting horses over fences
28
You're good for my money any day
Thanks! Was I really mean to George, I wonder? I don't want to be.
29
You're in an odd mood, little fellah. What's amiss- what's afoot?
I guess it's just that- a lot of things I always thought were terribly important I find now- and the other way around- and- oh, what the hell.
30
I don't think I'd spend much more time with Connor tonight, if I were you.
Why not?
31
Writers with wine sauce intoxicate little girls
They sort of do, don't they?- he fascinates me. He's so violent, Sandy.
32
He's fallen Tray. I could hear him bump.
Mind your own beeswax, old Nosey Parker
33
Get thee to bed
No!
34
- before you have to be carried.
No! No! No! I feel too delicious, Sandy. I feel just elegant. Is that my bedroom telephone?
35
Now you're hearing things
It couldn't be anyone but George. I was sort of swinish to him. Perhaps I'd better-As for you- get to work, you dog? Stop leaning on your shovel.
36
Miss not an inflection
Is it Connor the poet, or Connor the conspirator?
37
Champagne, entwining arms
That's pretty is it poetry?
38
Sample from his own pen: 'Pittsburgh is a gentle city'".
Sidney is a gentle man
39
Nimble scrivener, it's an idea
Brilliant I wish I'd thought of it
40
Baby Giant Tycooness
But would it not be a low and dirty deed?
41
What is this mist before my eyes?
I tell you what: let's all have a quick swim to brighten us up. Go get Liz, Sandy.
42
Not me it's too cold this early
It's the best hour of the day! Dexter and I always swam after parties.
43
I haven't got any bathing suit
But we won't need any. It's just ourselves!
44
Let's dip into this instead
No takers? Go get Liz anyway Sandy
45
If she's not in bed- or even if she is
That was an odd thing you just did
46
Me?
You. For a moment you made me- self conscience
47
How? About what?
Never mind. Hello, you
48
Hello
You look fine
49
I feel fine
Quite a fellah
50
They say
Did you enjoy the party?
51
The prettiest sight in this fine, pretty world is the Priviledged Class enjoying its priviledges.
Also somewhat of a snob
52
How do you mean?
I'm wondering.
53
Consider gentle reader they toil not neither do they spin
Oh yes they do! They spin in circles
54
- Tracy you can't marry that guy
George? - I'm going to. Why not?
55
I don't know, I'd have thought I'd be up for it, but somehow you just don't seem to match up
Then the fault's with me
56
Maybe so, all the same you can't do it
No? Come around noon tomorrow- I mean today
57
Tracy-
Yes, Mr. Connor?
58
How do you mean I'm a snob?
You're the worst kind there is: an intellectual sob. You've made up you mind awfully early it seems to me.
59
- and I'm nothing of the sort, not Mr. Connor
The time to make up your mind about people is never. Yes you are, and a complete one
60
You're quite a girl
You think?
61
I know.
Thank you, Professor. I don't think I'm exceptional
62
You are though
I know any number like me. You out to get around more
63
In the upper clahss? No, thanks
You're just a mass of prejudices aren't you? You're so much thought and so little feeling professor.
64
Oh I am am I?
Yes, you am, are you! Your damned intolerance furiates me. I mean infuriates me. I should think that of all people a writer would need tolerance. The fact is- you'll never- you can't be a first rate writer or a first rate human being until you learn to have some small regard for - aren't the geraniums pretty professor? Is it not a handsome day that begins?
65
Lay off that professor
Yes professor
66
You've got all the arrogance of your class alright haven't you?
Holy suds, what have classes got to do with it?
67
Quite a lot
Why? What do they matter- except for the people in them? George comes from the so- called lowered class, Dexter comes from the upper. Well?
68
Well?
- though there's a great deal to be said about Dexter- and don't you forget it!
69
I'll try not to
Mac, the night- watchman, is a prince amount men and Joey, the stable boy is a rat. Uncle Hugh is a saint. Uncle Willie's a pincher.
70
So what?
There aren't any rules about human beings, that's all!- you're teaching me thing, Professor; this is new to me. Thanks, I am beholden to you.
71
Not at all
"Upper" and "lower" my eye! I'll take the lower thanks.
72
- if you can't get a drawing room
What do you mean by that?
73
Mt mistake
Decidedly
74
Okay
You're insulting
75
I'm sorry
Oh don't apologize
76
Who the hells apologizing?
I never knew such a man
77
You wouldn't be likely to dear- not from where you sit
Talk about arrogance!
78
Tracy- (2nd one)
What do you want?
79
You're wonderful
Professor- may I got out?
80
Miss Lord will please wait
Miss Lord is priviledged.
81
I'm telling you
I'm-! Now I'm getting self conscience again. I- it's funny- Mike let's-
82
What?
I-I don't know- go up, I guess. It's late.
83
There are fires banked down in you, hearth fires
You- I don't seem to you- made of bronze then-
84
You've got tears in your eyes
Shut up, shut up! - oh mike - keep talking-keep talking ! Talk will you?
85
I've stopped
Why? Has your mind taken ahold again dear Professor?
86
You think so?
Yes, professor
87
A good thing don't you agree?
No, professor
88
Drop that Professor- you hear me?
Yes professor (coy)
89
That's really all I am to you is it?
Of course Professor
90
Are you sure?
Why, why, yes- yes of course Profess- golly. Golly Moses.
91
Tracy dear-
Mr. Connor- Mr. Connor-
92
Let me tell you something-
No don't- all of a sudden I've got the shakes
93
I have too
What is it?
94
It must be something like love
No, no! It mustn't be. It can't-
95
Why? Would it be inconvenient?
Terribly. Anyway, it isn't. I know it's not. Oh Mike, I'm a bad girl-
96
Not you
We're out of our mind
97
-'right into our hearts.
That ought to have music.
98
It has, hasn't it?- Tracy, you lovely-
They're coming
99
The hell-
It's-it's not far to the pool. It's only over the lawn, in the birch-grove- it'll be lovely now.
100
Come on-
Oh- it's as - it's as if my insteps- we're melting away- what is it? Have I- have I got feet of clay, or something?
101
-quick! Here they are-
I- I feel so small all at once
102
You're immense- you're tremendous
Not me- oh, not me! Put me in your pocket , Mike-
