Dottie Underwood:
What does "ennui" mean?

Peggy Carter:
Uh, it's like melancholy, um, sadness born out of tedium or boredom.

Dottie Underwood:
Huh.

Peggy Carter:
Why do you ask?

Dottie Underwood:
When I knocked on Angie's door this morning, she said she was "too consumed by ennui" to come to work today.

Peggy Carter:
Oh, and to think, her acting teacher said she wasn't dramatic enough.
