"Ah, then you would be dishonestly appropriating his love won't you? What an honest attitude!" The Mad Hatter nodded approvingly.

"It's not that I'm worried about," replied Alice.

"That you will have to keep up the pretence thereafter?" Tried the Hatter again.

"No, but when that happens, who will love me then?"
