They're down stairs. Mrs. Bingo You wretch! Bingo Now, my dear, . I couldn't get out of it. Mrs. Bingo (haughtily) Then you'll have to take the consequences. Bingo But Mrs. Bingo You'll have to put up with practically nothing. Bingo That's what I told them. Mrs. Bingo You did? Bingo Yes. I told them that they needn't expect a single thing; that we'd scrape round in the kitchen if necessary and pick up whatever we could and that, as I hadn't let you know, that, was the best we could do. Mrs, Bingo What did you tell them that for? Bingo It's the truth, isn't it? Mrs. Bingo Certainly not. As if it makes any difference to me how many friends you bring home! I'll show you!
