[Chips and Staefel are discussing Katie, Chips's new wife] Staefel:
Oh, dear fellow, dear fellow, I hope you've been wise. Chips:
Of course, I've been wise you old idiot. Staefel:
A pretty face is not everything, you know, dear fellow. There's so many questions of temperament and suitability. Chips:
"Suitability?" That's a horrible word, Max. It isn't even in the dictionary. Staefel:
It's in Webster. Chips:
Oh, Webster. Are you implying she's unsuitable to me? Staefel:
I'm simply wondering is she's suitable... as your wife
