  • Elsa Craddock: [In the Dean's office, confessing] Oh Marmaduke, how can you? We were foolish, but it was only a flirtation.
  • Wavertree: [confused] I'm awfully sorry sir, but I'm afraid this is all rather beyond me...
  • Dean of Cardinal: [impatiently] Now don't lie to me sir, Mrs. Craddock has freely confessed everything!
  • Wavertree: Everything?
  • Dean of Cardinal: Everything!
