"But not just any trousers!" Babbage says, puffing his chest out. "These are made of denim. Some Californian's idea, apparently, to deal with the masses of gold you have to carry around, you know. They are all the rage." He stops to peer at her. She is making an expression he can't identify at all. He adds, hopefully, "Besides, the pockets are triple-reinforced."
She holds them up to herself. They look like they might fit. "Happy Christmas," she says, clearly unsure if her output matches her input.

Notes
"PARLIAMENT," Brunel announces. "I HAVE BROKEN PARLIAMENT."
He means the building, it turns out. Not the system of government. That was broken before Brunel's efforts, a tangent upon which Lovelace objects to him going in the strongest terms.

Notes
"I don't see why you're so blasted insistent on avoiding it," Babbage calls into the receiver. "Christmas happens to us all once a year, like taxation and French revolutions and your annual decision to speculate on the applicability of Jacquard weaving to horse-racing and lose us a hundred crowns!"
