Bertie: Well, what happened, Jeeves? Has Spode got a secret?
Jeeves: Indeed he has, Sir.
Bertie: Tell me all, Jeeves.
Jeeves: I fear I cannot do that, Sir. The rules of the club regarding the dissemination of such material are very rigid.
Bertie: Well, what was the bally use of going then?
Jeeves: It's only the details of the matter that I am precluded from mentioning, Sir. I am perfectly at liberty to tell you that it would greatly lessen Mr. Spode's potentiality for evil, were you to inform him that you know all about Eulalie.
Bertie: Eulalie.
Jeeves: Eulalie, Sir.
Bertie: You're sure you can't go any deeper into the subject?
Jeeves: Quite sure, Sir. Were I to do so, it is probable that my resignation would be called for.
Bertie: Well, we wouldn't want that, of course.
