Clara--Oh, well, you can get in before the people come. Now, Emile, listen. You said you'd help Frank with the tea. When you take the cups away don't move the screen what ever you do. Just hand them around like this. See--Emile--Bien. Clara--And Mrs. Grumper will be behind the screen washing. Wells--What? Clara--Washing cups, you goose! Wells--Oh!
