It's all right.
[Lionel moves to the corner of the room, while Elizabeth calmly continues to sip her tea] [Motioning]
Bertie, over here.
Are you all right, Logue?
Yes.
[getting up and moving to Logue's corner]
Well, shouldn't we go through? What is it?
'[Myrtle Logue enters the living room, and looks into Lionel's study. Not seeing them, she turns round, and is confronted with the sight of Queen Elizabeth sitting at her table]
[lost for words]
You're... You're..!
It's "Your Majesty" the first time. After that, it's "ma'am." As in "ham." Not "mum" as in "palm."
I haven't told her about us. Sit down, relax.
[In the living room]
I'm told that your husband calls my husband "Bertie," and my husband calls your husband "Lionel." I trust you won't call me "Liz?"
[nervously curtsying]
Your majesty, you may call me "Mrs. Logue," ma'am.
Yes we can. I have to choose the right moment.
Logue, you're being a coward.
You're damn right.
[leaving the office]
Hello, Myrtle, darling. You're early. I believe you two have met. But I don't think you know... King George VI.
It's very nice to meet you.
[nervously curtsying again]
Will their Majesties be staying to dinner?
[seeing her unease]
We would love to, such a treat, but alas... a previous engagement. What a pity.
