Gabriel: Mr. Howard, I’ve come to call on Ann… I’ve come to call on Ann!
Mr. Howard: Well, of course you call yourself a man.
Ann: Father, stop it! You heard him!
Mr. Howard: Well, call on her.
Mrs. Howard: I’m nearly finished.
Ann: You needn’t worry, father.
Mr. Howard: Yeah, I know.
Gabriel: Oh, I think bundling bags are a wonderful tradition. I don’t mind it in the least.
Mrs. Howard: Be still.
Ann: Tea?
Gabriel: Please.
Mrs. Howard: There. … Come, dear.
Gabriel: It’s very good!
Ann: I’m pleased that you like it.
Mrs. Howard: Peter, don’t worry. I sew better than my mother did.
Mr. Howard: I hope so.
