Rosie It's all right, Mum. We're here now.
Cybill I told you that car was a waste of money but you wouldn't listen to me.
Rosie Don't, Mum.
Cybill Well, I'm just saying.
Rosie Yes, Mum.
Duane Benton enters stage right. He is overloaded with suitcases.
Duane (putting the cases down) We only just made it, Rosie. A minute later and we'd have been soaked to the skin.
Rosie Yes, Duane love.
Cybill Well, if you'd listened to me in the first place.
Rosie Yes, all right, Mum.
Cybill I see. My opinion is of no consequence.
Rosie Of course it is.
Cybill And don't you go helping him with those cases, my girl. This is your honeymoon. You're supposed to be cherished by the man you marry, not run after him like an unpaid skivvy.
Duane Fat chance.
Cybill What did you say?
