Genre: Comedy
[first lines]
Jean:
[the telephone is ringing] Telephone! Telephone!
Lionel:
I'm answering it!
Jean:
[she runs in, shoving Lionel aside] Oh, get out my way. Hello. Who? Oh yes, how are you? What! Well, you'd better tell Alistair. Oh, oh no, of course you can't; right. Well, no, yeah, c'est la vie all right, yes. Well, good-bye, and good luck. [hangs up]
Lionel:
Who's that?
Jean:
The best man. He's broken his leg.
Lionel:
That's bad luck.
Jean:
Bad luck! The man's a fool.
Lionel:
That's a bit harsh. Who is the best man anyway?
Jean:
Was, was, was! Gaston somebody-or-other. He's a ski instructor.
Lionel:
Can't be very good if he's broken his leg.
Jean:
That's why I said he was a fool.
Lionel:
Why phone here? Why not phone Alistair.
Jean:
Because he's on his way to hospital, and contrary to all the laws of nature Alistair's mobile is switched off.
