Millicent Jordan:
[First lines]
Darling, I've got Lord and Lady Ferncliffe! They'll come to dinner next Friday. I just had a radio from them on the boat! Wasn't that brilliant of me, getting the Ferncliffes? Oliver Jordan:
[underwhelmed]
Yes, that was very brilliant of you - if you want the Ferncliffes. Millicent Jordan:
But I *do*! You remember them darling, they entertained us in London. Oliver Jordan:
[sarcastically]
I remember them well, and very dull it was too - Australian mutton; and a lot of people who had been buried for years, and got up just to eat that mutton. Millicent Jordan:
You don't realize how important this is Oliver. *Everybody* will be after them. I thought you and Ferncliffe had lots in common. Isn't he interested in shipping too? Oliver Jordan:
[reluctantly willing]
Uh-huh, Mr. Oliver Jordan accepts. Millicent Jordan:
Of course it's terribly short notice
