Henry : Come away from the window, Min.

Minnie: Ohhhh, I’m only watching them dig that, that hole… the hole, Henry. The hole, Henry cocky!

Henry: You were watching a man digging a hole?

Minnie: Oh, is that a man?

Henry: It’s sinful, Min. D’you want people to start talking? Looking at a man you don’t even know?

Minnie: Ohhhh, I don’t know what’s come over you lately, Henry. You’re not the man I used to know.

Henry: Oh? And who is this man you used to know, then?

Minnie: It was you!

Henry: You used to know me?!

Minnie: Yes, yes.

Henry: I’ll get even with him!!
