"Lots of time for it," said Patricia, yawning and flinging herself down on the wide couch. "The men aren't through in there for more than an hour yet." The young man shrugged his shoulders. "If you people don't want to miss the first act, we'll have to be toddling," he said. "It's about five minutes after two.".

The lips that Patricia had designated as "nice and crinkly" widened in a bright smile that held no hint of hauteur. A tall dark-haired youth in a gray suit and overcoat, who had been standing with his back to them a short distance away, turned and showed a pleasant, homely face with two very lively eyes and a wide, firm mouth.
