OLLIVANT. [Affectionately.] Glad to be home again, Mary?
MARY. [Evasively.] The garden is so pretty.
OLLIVANT. Hasn't changed much, eh?
MARY. It seems different; perhaps it's the night.
OLLIVANT. I guess it isn't up to its usual standard. Haven't seen your mother there so often this spring.
EMILY. [Quietly.] This dry spell is not good for flowers.
OLLIVANT. [Turning to EMILY and patting her.] Is there any of that spray mixture left, Emily, dear?
EMILY. I haven't looked lately.
OLLIVANT. I'll order some to-morrow. Think it would be a good idea, daughter, if you'd spray those rosebushes every couple of weeks. The bugs are a pest this spring.
[OLLIVANT goes to the mantel, and while his back is turned, MARY makes a quick questioning gesture to her mother, who sighs helplessly. MARY ponders a moment.]
