  1. Jeeves, posing as Bertie, refuses Percy Gorringe's request for a thousand pounds, declines to tear Bertie's pages from the club book, and puts Florence through on the phone; she asks Bertie to take her to a garish night club, and he agrees, hoping to patch things up between her and Stilton.Chapter 4, Bertie's flat, as The Mottled Oyster

Florence, savaging a gooseberry bush, tells Bertie that Stilton found from the night club's book that she dined there with Bertie and has vowed to break Bertie's spine in five places; Bertie consoles himself that Stilton will never come to Brinkley.Chapter 10, the kitchen garden, as that night club
  4. A jubilant Aunt Dahlia bursts in on Bertie's breakfast, having learned from Jeeves that Lord Sidcup is Spode and planning to silence him with Eulalie Sœurs, and warns Bertie that Florence is planning the wedding, which he shrugs off since Stilton has drawn him in the Darts sweep.Chapter 15, Brinkley Court, as The Mottled Oyster
