This is just like a world tour.” “Indeed, sir.” “Why the soupy tone? Dash it, Jeeves. Don’t you like it…? ” “Of course, sir. You are most generous.” “Bally whatsit! Paris. Two months?” “And the Riviera, sir?” “Fine two more, but we must stay put somewhere simple.” “Yes, sir.” “And…oh, never mind.” “Sir?” “It’s silly.” “Really, sir?” “We’ll share a bedroom?” “Sir? Oh. Yes, please!” “Corking, Jeeves.”
