[Peter demonstrates a throat-cutting on Bunter, then sees Harriet's shock]
Lord Peter Wimsey : I'm so sorry.
Harriet Vane : No, no, it's all right.
Lord Peter Wimsey : No, no, I'm an ass. And in a moment I shall get down on my knees and apologize, and probably propose to you as well.
Harriet Vane : Oh, Peter! What an idiot you are!
Lord Peter Wimsey : Aren't I, though?

Harriet Vane : I'm afraid I'm not a very good dancer.
Antoine : You dance very correctly, Mademoiselle. It is only the entrain that is a little lacking. It is possible you are awaiting the perfect partner. When the heart dances with the feet it will be à merveille.

Harriet Vane : Something about how I dance better with you than I did with him.
Lord Peter Wimsey : What infernal cheek!
