[**Algernon** goes forward to meet them. Enter **Lady Bracknell** and **Gwendolen**.]
 * Lady Bracknell**. Good afternoon, dear Algernon, I hope you are behaving very well.
 * Algernon**. I’m feeling very well, Aunt Augusta.
 * Lady Bracknell**. That’s not quite the same thing. In fact the two things rarely go together. [Sees **Jack** and bows to him with icy coldness.]
 * Algernon**. [To **Gwendolen**.] Dear me, you are smart!
 * Gwendolen**. I am always smart! Am I not, Mr. Worthing?
 * Jack**. You’re quite perfect, Miss Fairfax.
 * Gwendolen**. Oh! I hope I am not that. It would leave no room for developments, and I intend to develop in many directions. [**Gwendolen** and **Jack** sit down together in the corner.]
