In "The Inimitable Jeeves," the protagonist reflects on a boy's direct and harsh comment regarding his looks. The exchange highlights the boy's candid nature and the way it influences the narrator's feelings. The narrator, curious about the specifics of the comment, asks Jeeves for clarification.

Jeeves, maintaining his composed demeanor, refrains from sharing the exact words, indicating that they were indeed unflattering. His response, laced with a sense of seriousness, underscores the impact of such remarks and implies that they are best left unmentioned, suggesting a deeper commentary on personal dignity and the fragility of self-image.
