What a terrible noise, Mrs Royal! |
| JOYCE ROYAL: |
Isn't it annoying, Roy? It's out of oil. |
| ROY COYNE: |
A Rolls Royce! Out of oil? ............ And look! (pointing) ................ The water’s boiling! Perhaps you've spoilt the motor. Or even destroyed it. How disappointing! It’s such a beautiful Rolls Royce! (raising his voice) AND A ROLLS ROYCE ISN'T A TOY! |
| JOYCE ROYAL: |
How disappointing! I’ll be late for my appointment. |
