Jeeves and Wooster 1x2

Bertie Is in Love
(or, Golf Tournament)

Season 1, Episode 2

& Barmy: I mean, as far as I can see, the trick in playing the piano is to get one hand to do one thing, while the other one's... doing something else.
    Lady Wickham: Well, yes...
    Barmy: I can do that with a knife and fork, so I don't see why...


& Wooster: Tell me, Jeeves, were you always like this, or did it come on suddenly?
    Jeeves: Sir?
    Wooster: The brain. The grey matter. Were you a brilliant child?
    Jeeves: My mother thought me intelligent, sir.
    Wooster: Well, you can't go by that. My mother thought me intelligent too.

& Wooster: But, Jeeves, I...
    Jeeves: Master Blumenfield junior will not detect that I have purchased another dog.
    Wooster: Another dog?
    Jeeves: Except to the eye of love, sir, one Aberdeen Terrier is much like another.


& Wooster: What on earth did she do that for?
    Jeeves: I fancy* she was upset, sir, at the vigour* with which the audience expressed their disapproval of her choice of song.
    Wooster: Now, Jeeves, you're not going to tell me that Miss Bellinger sang Sonny Boy too?
    Jeeves: Yes, sir.
    Wooster: Well, what an extraordinary coincidence!
    Jeeves: Er, not entirely, sir. I took the liberty of accosting Miss Bellinger on her arrival at the hall and saying that Mr Glossop had requested that she sing Sonny Boy as a particular favour to him, sir.
    Wooster: I say, Jeeves!
    Jeeves: Precisely, sir.
