Boy: My, you’re the sixth gentle man wot’s sent her flowers.
Young Man: What’s that? W-who sent the others?
Boy: They all said, “She’ll know where they came from.” They didn’t send any names.
Young Man: Well, take my card to Miss Jackson and say these are from the same one who sent the other five boxes.
