Hannay
Well, I've never been to Glasgow. I've been to Edinburgh and Montreal and London. I'll tell you all about London at supper.
Margaret
John wouldn't approve of that, I doubt.
Hannay
Why not?
Margaret
He says it's best not to think of such places and all the wickedness that goes on there.
Hannay
Well, why not listen now, before he comes back? What did you want to know?
Margaret
Well, is it true that all the ladies paint their toenails?
Hannay
Some of them.
Margaret
Do London ladies look beautiful?
Hannay
They do. But they wouldn't if you were beside them. [John enters the house]
Margaret
You ought not to say that.
John
What ought you not to say?
Hannay
I was just saying to your wife that I prefer living in town than the country.
John
God made the country. Is the supper ready, woman?
