When I get growed, I shan't never do anything I don't want to.
GEORGIANA. Then you'd be the most wonderful person in the world, and
they'd put you in wax in the Eden Musee!
STEVEN. [_Kissing_ PHIL, _then_ CHRIS, _then_ TOOTS.] Good-by, dears.
THE CHILDREN. [_Dolefully._] Good-by.
[STEVEN _crosses to the door Left._
GEORGIANA. Never mind, I'll finish with you. Don't turn around, Phil.
LIZZIE. [_At the door Left._] Beg pardon, sir, but Moles has been and
told me what you was going to do for him, sir. Would you be considering
it great impertinence if I asked you to take six hundred dollars what
I've saved, sir, and do things with it?
STEVEN. Certainly, Lizzie, send it by Moles in the morning.
LIZZIE. [_Delighted._] Oh, thank you, sir!
STEVEN. I'm glad to do it; you've served us faithfully for some years
now, Lizzie.
[_He goes out._
LIZZIE. He's gone, miss.
[_She goes out also._
GEORGIANA. [_Calls._] Ready!
[PHILIP _turns and looks about the room, then begins to look under
things. He sees his_ AUNT GEORGIANA _first and is about to touch her,
but she laughingly motions him not to and points out_ TOOTS'S _hiding
place.
