Context
Gorgeous Teitelbaum has arrived at her sister Sara鈥檚 house in London. Both women have also just met Merv Kant, an American faux-furrier. He is polite and friendly, and has shown an obvious interest in Sara, who is dismissive and off-putting towards him. The sisters are affectionate towards each other, easily bantering about their lives and relationships--until Gorgeous insists on lighting candles for the Sabbath.
