Rogue Male Page #6

- But I'll ...

- Looks like rain.

I'll wait in the car, like a gentleman,

and you will fetch up the bags.

Here, the Major -that's I-, as he so often

remarked we were two of a kind,

At least, to the casual eye.

I'm sorry to abandon you, but all

good things must come to an end.

Goodbye, Major!

Goodbye dear, and remember: don't

renounce your Queen too soon!

I'll remember, Major!

Premature exposure may come out to be fatal.

Good bye, major!

- I'd like to give you a kiss, Major!

- You might catch a cold, my dear. Just stay in the dry.

Bye, bye, now! Don't get too wet!

I have to tell you now that no such

undertaking has been received,

and that consequently, this

country is at war with Germany.

Anyway, Neville asked me

would I care to renounce my duties.

Frankly, since I never quite known

what this were, I readily agreed. Oh, yeah!

Oh, there you are, Bobbity! I

wondered when you'd surface.

I expected you a bit sooner, to be honest.

Oh, yes, but I couldn't find a taxi cab.

That! Of course, that explains it.

Cause I had a word with Winston. And he says

that if you care to go round by the Admiralty,

he has an idea that might

be rather up your stream.

- Fine. I'll go around.

- Do that, do that...

Oh, Bobbity! You know that spot of

trouble you talked me about... Well,

now it seems that Neville has passed the word

-informally, of course- that the whole thing can

now be unofficially regarded as officially...

Dead and buried?

- Yes, if you like it like that.

- Fine. I'll go see Winston.

Do that. Get him to give you a good

job right away before he gets kicked out.

Because I don't think he's

going to last any longer...

Ok. Thanks, uncle.

Bobbity, I'll be at the Athenaeum,

later, if you feel like a little plain supper

in some middle class company...

Thank you, uncle.

That's my nephew, Bobbity. Splendid fellow!

But so silly!

Do you know what he did before?

Oh, you're just not going to believe this,

but he actually tried to pop Hitler.

And missed. Very odd.

He's usually quite a decent shot.

My plan is far advanced.

I recognize that I may not get away alive,

but this time I shall not hesitate.

And that's really all that matters to me,

without you.
