Signor Teddy. He had a most beloved wife once, Signora Teddy, but she has since become lost.
[ The expert of drama that she is, her voice turns pitiful just at the end, though it doesn't last long. Sadness is unattractive, hardly charming, and she means to remain bright, light, the girl of his dreams. It could still work. ]

I'd, uh, like to hang out with you both.
[ Why did she ask? He teases: ] You tryin' to shake me?
