比雅特莉斯•斯坦霍普：乔治。
森林王乔治：噢。
比雅特莉斯：我想……谈一谈。你可以和我到外面去吗……(侍者递给他一杯啤酒)非常感谢……(面对乔治)就一会儿?
乔治：当然。
女人：你好，比雅特莉斯。
比雅特莉斯：你好，你好。噢，我们认识不是很久，乔治，但我已经知道你的一些事情。
乔治：哦?
比雅特莉斯：你爱上我的女儿。
乔治：噢，俄苏拉夫人，不至于那么笨……
比雅特莉斯：很好，然而我所关心的是俄苏拉好像也喜欢你，那对我才是一个问题。你知道你和俄苏拉在一起不适合她的社会地位。你明白吗?换句话说，你也许能明白，你来的地方，斑马配斑马，猎豹配猎豹，门当门，户对户，哦，俄苏拉和你门不当户不对，这个问题我想尽快地解决。
乔治：那么你要俄苏拉爱乔治。
比雅特莉斯：那我宁愿每天早餐都把舌头钉在这张桌子上。
乔治：那样会痛的。
比雅特莉斯：如果你做出什么事破坏我女儿和莱尔•冯•鲁特的婚礼，你会更痛。当莱尔回来后，婚礼会按计划举行。如果你捣乱的话，我会腌了你，这样就不用围遮羞布了。
侍者：斯坦霍普夫人，要盐锔牛扒吗?
比雅特莉斯：噢，不，谢谢，今天吃了够多的蛋白质了。森林先生， 祝你有一个愉快的夜晚。
