[...]

- Oh, it's nothing, Johnny.

- That's right. It's nothing. Just one of Linda's whims.

- The silly little girl wanted to give her kind of party. But between you and Father, you've managed to change her funny little shindig into a first-class funeral.

- She should have realized that Father couldn't announce my engagement without some sort of fuss.

- She should have, yes, but unlike me, Linda always hopes.

- Bottoms up to Linda.

- Oh, Ned, now please. You've been drinking steadily since eight o'clock.

- Yes, funny old Ned. On New Year's Eve too.

- Johnny, try to stop him.

- Darling sister, I shall drink as much as I like at any party I agree to attend. And as much as I like is as much as I can hold. It's my protection against your tiresome friends.

- Linda's out of luck. She hasn't any protection.

- Robert, another highball, please.
