After Bertie returns home he is welcomed Corky and by Sam Goldwyn, her dog. Corky tells him that she loves Esmond  but has broken off seeing him because he cannot shake himself loose from his forbearing aunts. She also tells him that his partner at the Pat and Mike sketch will be constable Dobbs, an atheist who likes to pester her uncle Sidney about faith issues, and she wants Bertie to really hit him hard in the play. Then Catsmeat arrives, devastated after a night out with Gussie, whom he has persuaded to wade through the fountain at Trafalgar square, resulting in Gussie  being arrested and sentenced to 14 days in prison. Jeeves comes to the resue with one of his patent hangover chasers.
