COAST. How?

GEORGIANA. You must know how mad he is over speculation? But perhaps you

COAST. Why doesn't he keep out of it?

COAST. There's only one way.

GEORGIANA. What?

COAST. Ruin him!

GEORGIANA. That's too anarchistic! You speculate.

COAST. But I always win!

GEORGIANA. Can't you teach him?

COAST. Listen, if I could do that, I'd be the richest man in the world
before I got through.
