(Kneeling on stool R.C.) But you are! In spite of all his worries and preoccupations about his election, Bobby takes the greatest interest in you, Celia---- (CELIA: Yes?) I tell you he does! (Forgetting herself in her zeal) As soon as he has time, Bobby means to do everything he can to get Admiral Grice to propose to you! (CELIA: What!!) (Crestfallen) Oh--I oughtn't to have told you, I suppose. But it's true, all the same. (Reproachfully) You don't appreciate Bobby's noble nature, Celia. You don't know how Bobby realizes your--your loneliness, Celia. Unless you could hear him talk about you, you'd never guess how much darling Bobby pities you.
