- Bertie: Theatrical circles?
- Aunt Agatha Gregson: As I instructed you in my letter.
- Bertie: Letter?

- Bertie: Parroting?
- Jeeves: I am familiar with the name Bassington-Bassington, sir. There are the Shropshire Bassington-Bassingtons the Hampshire Bassington-Bassingtons and, of course, the Kent Bassington-Bassingtons.
- Bertie: Ah, so, the world's pretty well stacked up on Bassington-Bassingtons then.
- Jeeves: Tolerably so, sir.
- Bertie: No chance of a sudden shortage, I mean, ha?
- Jeeves: Presumably not, sir.
