JUDGE
And you, Lucy?
LUCY
[_with a nervous glance at JOHN_]
Absolutely.
JUDGE
[_to the lovers_]
There. You see?
[_ERNEST looks from one to the other in amazement._
HELEN
[_laughing_]
I don't believe a word of it!
JUDGE
Why not? why not?
HELEN
Very well, then invite the whole family here next Sunday!
JUDGE
They'll be here in an hour.
[_Points to tables._
HELEN _and_ ERNEST
[_recoiling_]
In an hour!
JUDGE
Yes, you are to begin your new life together this evening! Isn't it lovely?
HELEN
[_gasping_]
But that's so sudden. Why, we--we aren't ready.
THEODORE
Just as ready as you'll ever be.
JUDGE
Ernest's vacation begins to-morrow--your honeymoon.
HELEN
But, don't you see----
LUCY
Those new Paris clothes John gave you--your trousseau.
ERNEST

JUDGE
And this family gathering this evening, your--in a manner of speaking--wedding party. [_Waving aside all the lovers' objections._]

ERNEST
[_blocks the way. Serious_]
Wait! Did I ever say I would not marry this woman?
