"He's just come back from the Far East" "He's been away for over 20 years" "He's been away all right, doing porridge" "He's been in prison?" "He was in the nick with my brother-in-law" "He's in and out of there like a fiddlers elbow" "Do you know what his specialty is?" "Finding lonely women, asking them to marry him" "Taking their life savings and scampering" "I'm getting married in the morning" "Enter" "Ah Miss Courtney, I've got some rather disturbing news" "Nothing you could say to me today would disturb Mr. Brown" " I think this might!" "It's about Albert" " Ah Albert, my future husband" "I've just been speaking to Sid and..." "Husband?" "Yes, we're getting married by special license" "Oh no" "Now Mr. Brown, I know you were fond of me" "But you mustn't take it too hard" "Has he tried to borrow any money from you?" "I fail to see what business that is of yours" "He has..." "I hate to have to tell you this Miss Courtney" "But your future husband is a crook" " Don't be so impertinent" " It's true I'm afraid" "He's a con man!" "He specializes in proposing to lonely women and taking their money" "Nonsense!" "I don't believe it" "Ask Sid, his brother-in-law was in prison with him" " Prison?" "Are you sure?" " I'm afraid so" " Perhaps he's reformed" " You don't really believe that, do you?" "No, I thought it was too good to be true" "He's coming back to take me out to dinner" " What shall I do?" " Don't worry Miss Courtney" "I'll deal with him" "Leave everything to me" "I've got a message for you from Miss Courtney" " Oh yes" " Push off" "What?" "We know all about your little games" "So I'd advise you to get lost quick, before I throw you out" " You and whose army?" " Me and this army" "Yeah, well... perhaps I had better be going" "All right Miss Courtney, he's gone" "Oh thank you Mr. Brown"
