[Basil is in hospital and a nurse is tending to his injuries]
Don't touch me! I don't know where you've been!
Yes, yes. We must have our little jokes, mustn't we?
Yes, we must, mustn't we? My God, you're ugly, aren't you? Mind boggling!
[The nurse is shocked by Basil's comments]
Basil?!
I-I'll get the doctor.
You need a plastic surgeon, dear, not a doctor.
How dare you talk to Sister like that. Get back into bed!
You do not seem to realise that I am needed at the hotel!
No they don't. They're managing beautifully without you.
Polly cannot cope!
Well she can't fall over waiters or get her head stuck under desks or start burglar alarms or lock people in burning rooms or fire fire extinguishers straight in her own face. But I think the hotel can do without that sort of coping for a couple of days. What do you think, Basil, hmm?
