Mrs Swettenham: That's right--isn't it, Edmund?

Edmund: Yes, Mother--that's right.
Mrs Swettenham: We were in the car.....And Edumd said . . . What was it you said?

Edmund: "What a good idea."
Mrs Swettenham: Well, um--yes that will be fine, thank you.
Patrick: Edmund?
- Edmund: Thank you.
- Well, Phillipa. You looked very busy this morning.
Phillipa: There was nothing secret about it and we're not hatching anything.

Edmund: No, no. By no means. You see, I had to call at Dayas Hall with some honey for Mrs. Lucas.
(Blackout)

Edmund: Come on--you've had your joke. Put them back on.
Phillipa: I can't see--have you got those matches Edmund?

Edmund: Blast! That was the last one.
Patrick: They must be fused.

Edmund: Where's the fuse-box?
Miss Blacklock: There's no need . . .
(Lights come on)

Edmund: He's unconscious. Must have knocked himself out.
Patrick: Who is it?

Edmund: I've no idea. Better get his gun--before he comes round.
Miss Blacklock: It's nothing--just my ear . . .

Edmund: Why the handkerchief?
Patrick: I don't suppose the police would be very happy if I got my fingerprints all over it.
Mrs Swettenham: Police?

Edmund: They'll have to be called in, mother.
