Look here, can you spare me 10 or 20 minutes? It's not exactly a service matter. You have to come down to the gate. I hate to keep a woman waiting. You mean, your...? As it happens, I was spotted at the station and now my French lady-friend thinks I've got an English mistress. Come on! Are you dragging me there to deal with your absurd love-life? Mine? It's yours! The poor woman is in a dreadful state of anxiety about you. You haven't written to her once, she says. You can't mean Miss Wannop? Do you swear it? Cross my heart, Miss. I saw the captain with my own eyes this very morning, Miss! I've been dreadfully worried about him. You're welcome to wait in the guardroom, Miss. No, it's perfectly all right. I don't want to disturb Captain Tietjens when he's on duty, so long as he's all right. You've all been absolutely sweet.
