INT. GRANTHAM’S HOUSE
(Mary, Spratt, Violet:)
Mary is arrived.
:Mary: Thank you, Spratt.
:Spratt: I trust you enjoyed your stay in Liverpool, M'Lady?
:Violet: You found it extremely interesting, didn't you, dear?
:Mary: Yes, I did. I think we'll have some tea. Thank you, Spratt.
:Spratt: Very good, Your Ladyship.
:Mary: Obviously, it's very shocking to someone of your generation.
:Violet: Don't let us hide behind the changing times, my dear. This is shocking to most people in 1924.
:Mary: Yes.
:Violet: Can we be confident that there will be no unwanted epilogue?
:Mary: You can be quite sure.
:Violet: Well, I must say that makes a nice…
:Mary: A nice what?
:Violet: A nice kettle of fish. Is there any chance of a proposal?
:Mary: Every chance. He already has. He wants to set the date.
:Violet: Oh. Oh, I see. Well, I'm not saying I approve because I don't. But it does put things in rather a different light.
:Mary: Yes.
:Violet: When will you announce it?
:Mary: I'm not sure. We haven't decided.
:Violet: Then you'd better get on with it. If I was seduced by a man, I would not let any grass grow under his feet if he'd offered to do the decent thing.
:Mary: I wasn't seduced, Granny.
:Violet: A young woman of good family who finds herself in the bed of a man who is not her husband has invariably been seduced.
:Mary: She couldn't have gone to bed with him of her own free will?
:Violet: NOT if she was the daughter of an Earl.
(Spratt comes back)
:Violet: Oh, there you are, Spratt. Lady Mary's been telling me all about her conference.
:Spratt: I hope you found it interesting, M'Lady.
:Mary: I learned a great deal that I never knew before.
:Violet: Thank you, Spratt.
