MRS. WOLFF
He's takin' his time again to-day.
GLASENAPP
[_Writing._] Patience! Patience!
MRS. WOLFF
Well, if he's goin' to be so late again to-day, he won't have no more
time for us.
GLASENAPP
Goodness! You an' your trifles! We got different kinds o' things to deal
with here.
MRS. WOLFF
Aw, I guess they're fine things you got to do.
GLASENAPP
That's no way to talk. That ain't proper here!
MRS. WOLFF
Aw, act a little more grand, will you? Krueger hisself sent my girl here!
GLASENAPP
The same old story about the coat, I suppose.
MRS. WOLFF
An' why not!
GLASENAPP
Now the old fellow's got somethin' for sure. Now he can go stirrin'
things up--the knock-kneed old nuisance.
MRS. WOLFF
You c'n use your tongue. You better see about findin' out somethin'.
MITTELDORF
[_Appears in the doorway._] You're to come right over, Glasenapp. His
honour wants to ax you somethin'.
GLASENAPP
Has I got to interrupt myself again?
[_He throws down his pen and goes out._
MRS. WOLFF
Good mornin', Mitteldorf.
MITTELDORF
Good mornin'.
MRS. WOLFF
What's keepin' the justice all this while?
MITTELDORF
He's writin' pages an' pages! An' them must be important things, I c'n
tell you that.
