Bertie: Jeeves, I'm sure that nothing is further from your mind, but you know you have a way of saying "Indeed, sir" which gives the impression that it's only a feudal sense of what is fitting which prevents you from substituting the words "Says you."
Jeeves: I'm distressed to hear it, sir.
Bertie: Well, so you should be, Jeeves. Correct it.
Jeeves: Very good, sir.
Bertie: You'll be glad to hear that I have taken steps in the matter of Tuppy and Angela...
Jeeves: Indeed, sir.
Bertie (peevishly): Jeeves.
Jeeves: Sorry, sir.
