[Queen Mary and Lady Mabell Airlie notice that Bertie is taking an interest in Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon]
Queen Mary:
I think my son is rather keen on the Strathmore girl.
Lady Mabell Airlie:
I formed that impression too.
Queen Mary:
We could do worse than marry Bertie to a member of the British aristocracy. I mean, *some* of them are quite respectable - yourself, for example.
Lady Mabell Airlie:
Has it ever been done? Isn't royal blood supposed to be a unique asset? Surely she'd be the first commoner to marry into the royal family since, umm...
Queen Mary:
Anne Boleyn.
Lady Mabell Airlie:
Well, that didn't work out, did it?
Queen Mary:
Well, my understanding is that until he had her beheaded, the whole thing was a resounding success.
