Lady Frederick
Ah, but won't you alter it – like Nelson. Don't be hard on Rose. She's really in love with Gerald. Do give them a chance. Won't you? Ah, do – there's a dear.
Admiral
I don't want to hurt your feelings, but Sir Gerald is about the most ineligible young man that I've ever come across.
Lady Frederick
[Triumphantly.] There, I knew we should agree. That's precisely what I told him this morning.
Admiral
I understand his place is heavily mortgaged.
Lady Frederick
No one will lend a penny more on it. If they would Gerald would borrow it at once.
Admiral
He's got nothing but his pay to live upon.
Lady Frederick
And his tastes are very extravagant.
Admiral
He's a gambler.
Lady Frederick
Yes, but then he's so good looking.
Admiral
Eh?
Lady Frederick
I'm glad that we agree so entirely about him. Now there's nothing left but to call the young things in, join their hands and give them our united blessing.
Admiral
Before I consent to this marriage, madam, I'll see your brother —
Lady Frederick
Damned?
Admiral
Yes, madam, damned.
Lady Frederick
Now listen to me quietly, will you?
Admiral
I should warn you, Lady Frederick, that when I once make up my mind about a thing, I never change it.
Lady Frederick
Now that is what I really admire. I like a man of character. You know, I've always been impressed by your strength and determination.
Admiral
I don't know about that. But when I say a thing, I do it.
Lady Frederick
Yes, I know. And in five minutes you're going to say that Gerald may marry your pretty Rose.
Admiral
No, no, no.
Lady Frederick
Now look here, don't be obstinate, I don't like you when you're obstinate.
Admiral
I'm not obstinate. I'm firm.
Lady Frederick
After all, Gerald has lots of good qualities. He's simply devoted to your daughter. He's been a little wild, but you know you wouldn't give much for a young man who hadn't.
Admiral
[Gruffly.] I don't want a milksop for a son-in-law.
Lady Frederick
As soon as he's married, he'll settle into a model country squire.
