Indeed, Sir

"Dreadful business, Jeeves. We don't have a palm tree either. Where were you going to tie me to with this towel?"

"I couldn't say, Sir."

"Where is the special remedy for ... a certain purposes. I can't think of the word."

"Lubrication, Sir?"

"Exactly."

"I'm afraid I can't help, Sir."

"Dreadful business, I say!"

"Indeed, Sir."
