Alfred Debling (about Whistledown): Has she written about you?

Penelope Featherington: She has.

Alfred Debling: And of what did she write?

Penelope Featherington: That I enlisted an eligible male friend to help me find a husband.

Alfred Debling: I say. Well done.

Penelope Featherington: For being a fool?

Alfred Debling: For stepping away from the herd, even though you risked becoming a target. Just like him. (points at deer hunting trophy)

Penelope Featherington: He is dead.

Alfred Debling: True. But at least he got to come to the party.

Penelope Featherington: A rather dull one, if I am honest. Forgive me. I should not have said that.

Alfred Debling: Do not apologize. In fact, I find your frankness immensely refreshing.
