My brother Ned, Mr. and Mrs. Potter. They're friends of Johnny's. Mrs. Susan Elliott Potter:
He used to live with us. Professor Nick Potter:
We've come to warn his future bride about him - he never puts the cap back on the toothpaste. Professor Nick Potter:
Mm-hmm. Then we'll drink a toast to Johnny - he *needs* it. [fills champagne glasses] Mrs. Susan Elliott Potter:
Needs it? Edward 'Ned' Seton:

I mean he's doing all right. He's having a whirl. Julia's got his hair slicked down and Father's seeing that he meets the important people. Professor Nick Potter:
My word, are there important people downstairs? Linda Seton:
Oh, frightfully important. That's why I want to give a party up here. Professor Nick Potter:
