MAGGIE. Look here, my lad, if you're too proud to do a job like that, you're not the husband for my sister. ALBERT. It's the look of the thing. Can't you send somebody from here? MAGGIE. No. You can think it over. (_She raises trap_.) Tubby! TUBBY (_below_). Yes, Miss. (_He appears half-way up trap_.) Why, it's Miss Maggie! MAGGIE. Come up, Tubby. You're in charge of the shop. We'll all be out for awhile. TUBBY. I'll be up in half a minute, Miss Maggie. (_He goes down and closes trap_.) MAGGIE. Well, Albert Prosser? ALBERT (_up_ L.). I suppose I must. MAGGIE. That's right. We'll call it your wedding gift to me, and I'll allow you're putting yourself out a bit for me. (_Going with him to the door. He goes. She turns and comes to_ C.) |
