Gerald, Duke of Denver:
If you're so dead-set on making a public spectacle of yourself...

Lord Peter Wimsey:
Damn it, man, you're the one who's making a public spectacle of himself! It never need have started if it hadn't been for you. Do you think that I enjoy seeing my brother and sister dragged through the courts, reporters all swarming over the place, paragraphs and news bills with your name staring at me from every corner, and the whole ghastly business ending up in a great show in the House of Lords with a lot of people togged up in scarlet and ermine, and all the rest of the damn fool jiggery-pokery?
