GERALD. Yes. Wentworth's looking after him. Pamela will be here too. SIR JAMES. We haven't seen much of Pamela lately. What does _she_ think about it? GERALD (sharply). What do you mean? SIR JAMES. The disgrace of it. I hope it's not going to affect your engagement. GERALD. Disgrace? what disgrace? SIR JAMES. Well, of course, he hasn't been found guilty yet. GERALD. What's that got to do with it? What does it matter what a lot of rotten jurymen think of him? _We_ know that he has done nothing disgraceful. LADY FARRINGDON. I'm sure Pamela wouldn't think anything like that of your brother, dear. GERALD. Of course she wouldn't. She's been a perfect angel to Bob these last few weeks. What does it matter if he does go to prison? SIR JAMES. I suppose you think I shall enjoy telling my neighbours, when they ask me what my elder boy is doing, that he's--ah--in prison. |
