Miss Plimsoll

Shall we roll up the window, Sir Wilfrid?

Just roll up your mouth, you talk too much. If I'd known how much you talk I'd never have come out of my coma.

Miss Plimsoll

I almost married a lawyer once. I was in attendance when he had his appendectomy, and we became engaged as soon as he could sit up... and then peritonitis set in and he went just like that!

He certainly was a lucky lawyer.

I'd better take that thermos of cocoa with me. It helps me wash down down the pills.

Miss Plimsoll

Let me see. My learned patient is not above substituting brandy for cocoa. [opens thermos and smells] Sniff, sniff. It is cocoa. So sorry.

If you were a woman, Miss Plimsoll, I would strike you.
