Brig Hilton:

I know! Why don't we take somebody into the house? You know, a roomer! Anne Hilton:
Oh, well, if you're going to throw away aces, Jane, that's fine with me. Brig Hilton:
But Mother, listen to me, why shouldn't we rent a room? There's such a terrible shortage. Jane Hilton:
Go away. Down with five. Anne Hilton:
It's perfectly ridiculous, Brig. A stranger in our home. Where you get your ideas is beyond me. Jane Hilton:
Certainly it's ridiculous. It's communism, that's what it is! Brig Hilton:
Oh, pooh! We could get an officer maybe. And it might be sort of like having Pop back. Jane Hilton:
An officer? You know, Mother, I think maybe she's right. I understand there's not a room to be had in town. It might be very patriotic of us to take an officer into our house. Brig Hilton:
Patriotism hasn't anything to do with it. You're just crazy about uniforms, that's all. Ha! Patriotic! Jane Hilton:
I think we should do everything we can for our soldiers. That's being patriotic, I... Anne Hilton:
Brig, Jane, now that's enough. Do you want to finish this game, or don't you? Jane Hilton:
102. It's a blitz. Anne Hilton:
Turn out the dining room lights, Brig. Brig Hilton:
Suppose Pop were looking for a room in some crowded city like this. Anne Hilton:
Hurry up, Jane, it can't be that hard to figure out. Brig Hilton:
And Suppose there were a nice family like ours that had three bedrooms for three people. Don't you think it would be just malicious of them not to want to rent a room to Pop? Anne Hilton:
Well, Jane? Jane Hilton:
I won almost $6,000. 592 points at $10 a point. Anne Hilton:
All right, deduct it from what you owe me. Brig Hilton:
And poor Pop, sleeping in the park! Anne Hilton:
All right, all right. Pop is sleeping in the park, and the people are all malicious, and we decide to rent him a room. Now you satisfied? Jane Hilton:
You will, Mother? You'll do it? Anne Hilton:
I didn't say I'd do it. I'll think about it. Brig Hilton:
I just knew you couldn't be mean like those characters in that other city. I wonder how much we can get for Jane's room. Jane Hilton:
My room?
