Gloria Disappears
[GLORIA, spoken]
You led Rodney on. He never had any nerve until you showed up.
[VENUS, spoken]
Why, that's the nicest thing anyone ever said to me.
[GLORIA, spoken]
I'm going to sue that little weasel for breach of promise, and name you!
[VENUS, spoken]
Be careful, dear, you're not appealing to my better nature.
[GLORIA, spoken]
Oh, I'll scratch your eyes out!
[VENUS, spoken]
Now, Lambie, you're overtired. You're just a bundle of nerves. I'm going to send you on a nice long trip to the moon, or would you prefer something a little closer, like the North Pole? Have a nice trip, dear, and be careful of drafts.
