Right Ho, Jeeves

To
the
question
which
had
been
exercising
the
mind--viz.,
can
Bertram
cope?--I
was
now
able
to
reply
with
a
confident
“Absolutely.”
The
great
wheeze
on
these
occasions
of
dirty
work
at
the
crossroads
is
not
to
lose
your
head
but
to
keep
cool
and
try
to
find
the
ringleaders.
Once
find
the
ringleaders,
and
you
know
where
you
are.
The
ringleader
here
was
plainly
the
Bassett.
It
was
she
who
had
started
the
whole
imbroglio
by
chucking
Gussie,
and
it
was
clear
that
before
anything
could
be
done
to
solve
and
clarify,
she
must
be
induced
to
revise
her
views
and
take
him
on
again.
This
would
put
Angela
back
into
circulation,
and
that
would
cause
Tuppy
to
simmer
down
a
bit,
and
then
we
could
begin
to
get
somewhere.
I
decided
that
as
soon
as
I
had
had
another
morsel
of
cheese
I
would
seek
this
Bassett
out
and
be
pretty
eloquent.
And
at
this
moment
in
she
came.
I
might
have
foreseen
that
she
would
be
turning
up
shortly.
I
mean
to
say,
hearts
may
ache,
but
if
they
know
that
there
is
a
cold
collation
set
out
in
the
dining-room,
they
are
pretty
sure
to
come
popping
in
sooner
or
later.
Her
eyes,
as
she
entered
the
room,
were
fixed
on
the
salmon
mayonnaise,
and
she
would
no
doubt
have
made
a
bee-line
for
it
and
started
getting
hers,
had
I
not,
in
the
emotion
of
seeing
her,
dropped
a
glass
of
the
best
with
which
I
was
endeavouring
to
bring
about
a
calmer
frame
of
mind.
The
noise
caused
her
to
turn,
and
for
an
instant
embarrassment
supervened.
A
slight
flush
mantled
the
cheek,
and
the
eyes
popped
a
bit.
