nitial conflict that drives the story?
DUNHAM: The beverages are getting low, madam — what with entertaining so much —

ELAINE: [In dismay.] But, mother, if you only have twelve people, Father can't sit at the head of the table.

ELAINE: There's no other way. There must be a woman at each end —

MRS. PRINGLE: [Distraught.] How absurd! I always forget. Of course, twelve is an impossible number — [She goes around the table looking at the place cards.] I don't want to put any of these women at the head— there’s Mrs. Darby — such a cat — I wouldn't give her the honor and Mrs. — [The telephone rings.] Answer it, Dunham.
