• 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!

  Elsa Craddock : Everything!

  Wavertree : [catching on]  Oh... oh, she has! Oh... heh heh... oh, whoo! What a relief, sir! Now I need lie no more!

  Dean of Cardinal : Ah, then you admit it!

  Wavertree : Yes, rah-ther sir! Every time! I'd have told you in the first place sir, but we Wavertrees always protect the lady in the case!

  Elsa Craddock : [somewhat sarcastic]  He has a natural power over women. Try to use it for good, Marmaduke.
