Sorry, Cluin, according to the rules it takes a double fault to merit expulsion. A single fault is wiped out as long as the next post is in-bounds. Just like tennis.

Anyway....

The proprietress of the restaurant was serving toast with preserves made from the fruit of papaya trees. It was a "seedy" little diner that rarely paid any attention to the proprieties of conventional table service. Her customer, a "bearded little man", was working a crossword and trying to find the word "PROPRIETRIES" in his dictionary, but to "no avail".
