Mr. Dean : [Meeting Sister Clodagh for the first time] I'm the general's agent. He welcomes you to Mopu. Understood you wanted to see me.
Sister Clodagh : We want to talk to you on business.
Mr. Dean : I didn't suppose you wanted to talk to me about anything else.
Mr. Dean : [Realizing his comment was a bit snarky] Sorry. Perhaps that wasn't fair.
Sister Clodagh : Mr. Dean, you know that General Toda Rai has given us this house for a new foundation of our Order. We very much appreciate it. It's very generous of him.
Mr. Dean : Yes. You'd like the General, Sister. He also has a superior being.
Sister Briony : [Taken aback] Really!
Sister Clodagh : I don't know why you are being so rude to me, Mr. Dean. I have to talk business with you whether I like it or not.
Mr. Dean : Well, talk it, then, and don't teach at me.
