Since You Went Away

You may drop me a line with your address. And if you have any affairs that require...

Jane Hilton:

I beg your pardon, Colonel Smollett. There's someone here to see you. Your grandson. Colonel William G. Smollett:
William? Cpl. Bill Smollett 2nd:
Hello, Grandpa! Colonel William G. Smollett:
To what peculiar combination of circumstances do I owe this visit, William? Cpl. Bill Smollett 2nd:
Well, you see, I was transferred out here to Chamberlain Field, and I found out at your office... Colonel William G. Smollett:
Indeed? I wasn't even aware that the United States forces had been honored by your membership. Cpl. Bill Smollett 2nd:
I enlisted, sir. Last summer. Colonel William G. Smollett:
So. I don't think we need trouble these young women with your autobiography. Let's go into the living room. If you will Excuse me. Cpl. Bill Smollett 2nd:
Excuse me. Colonel William G. Smollett:
I presume you've come to me for help of one sort or another with your tail between your legs. Cpl. Bill Smollett 2nd:
No, sir, I thought you might like - Well, you see... Colonel William G. Smollett:
Or is it money that you're after? Speak up, boy. Cpl. Bill Smollett 2nd:
I thought you might like to see me. Colonel William G. Smollett:
A very mistaken notion if ever you had one, and you've had plenty as we're both well aware. Cpl. Bill Smollett 2nd:
After all, I thought we may not see one another again. I don't know when I'll be shipped out. Colonel William G. Smollett:
Come, William. Let's not dramatize these things. There's no need for any pretense of affection between us. You've paid your courtesy call. Cpl. Bill Smollett 2nd:
Well, all right, if that's the way you feel about it! I'm sorry to have disturbed you. Colonel William G. Smollett:
You may drop me a line with your address. And if you have any affairs that require attention, I shall have my lawyers look after them. For your late father's sake. Now, I'm sure you will Excuse me. I'm a bit tired
