Nina lived in Manhattan. Nina's younger sister, Rosey, came in from college to spend a weekend with her sophisticated¹ sister. Nina had even arranged a date for Rosey with one of her friends, George.

After a lovely dinner and a show, George and Rosey went to George's apartment for a nightcap. They talked and listened to soft music for a while and then George suggested they retire to the bedroom.

"Oh, no," Rosey protested². "I don't think my sister would like it."

"Nonsense," said George as he gently took her arm. "She loves it."
