If you didn't come to
make any announcement, why--
MARIAN
Yes, what did you butt in for?
GEORGE
Why, I got a letter from your friend Grace, and--
MARIAN
Grace? What did she have to say to _you_?
GEORGE
She said she was sorry I had to get a divorce, but I told her--
MARIAN
Sorry _you_ had to get a divorce! Well, if I don't fix _her_!
GEORGE
Oh, she's getting married, too.
MARIAN
Who to?
GEORGE
That fellow, what's his name, that's got the garage over on Seventh
Avenue.
MARIAN
Snider! So _he's_ the one! Well! And I suppose she'll be all over town in
a new car.
GEORGE
Sure. Saw him to-day. A big yellow one. I always told you she was out for
money. And you thought she was in love with Jackson!
MARIAN
Hypocrite! She was. Or she told me so. Cried all over me. Have you seen
Jackson?
GEORGE
Yes. He's as blue as your old kimono. He said--
FRED
Look here, Marian! I'm not going to wait all night for my dinner!
MARIAN
Order your old dinner! What did Jackson say, George?
