You're damned small-minded. Don't bother us. (To his father.) I quite understand your point of view, sir. (TIMBRELL: Oh! do you? You understand me very thoroughly, don't you?) You see I have far more faith in your practical wisdom than in my own. I'm in a mess. You'll say I ought to stop and face the music. My point is that it does no good. And then there was that infernal wedding of Edgar's; I had to get out of that. They didn't want me any how. Oh! I know I cut a very poor figure. From your point of view. And I quite understand it, mind you. I'm very much with you now. And when I look at you, Mary, I feel rather horrible. (MARY: I didn't think you'd have run away.) No, that's bad, isn't it?
