Ceilia
Oh! Who left this box of chocolates here?

Mary
Who are they for?

Ceilia
Well, you must have a secret admirer… it's got you name on it.

Mary
Oh I love chocolate to bits.

Ceilia
Do you know who they're from?

Mary
Oh, they'll be from Peter… he's always buying me little gifts.

Ceilia
That's very sweet. Has he got the hots for you?

Mary
No, he's just pleased to have a friend. Ssshh, here he comes.

Peter
There it is…

Ceilia
Everything OK Gordon?

Gordon
Yes of course. Why do you have to keep asking that?

Mary
There's no love lost between you two!

Ceilia
Yes, well it's a love-hate relationship. More hate than love!

Gordon
Actually, it's this chocolate souffle I'm making. I can't seem to get the right type of milk chocolate for love nor money.

Mary
Oh… would you like to use one of these?

Gordon
Yes.

Mary
Gordon! I said just use one. These were a present.

Gordon
I know… I mean… cooking is a labour of love and sometimes I get carried away.

Mary
Oh Peter. I'm so sorry. The chocolates you bought for me… Gordon's just used them all in the soufflé.

Peter
Chocolates? I didn't buy you any chocolates Mary – why would I do that?

Mary
Then who were they from?

Ceilia
Ooo, I love a good mystery.
