In chapter 7, when Bertie is asked by Vanessa to hold Orlo's letters for her to pick up, Bertie states: "The idea of her calling at the cottage daily, with Orlo Porter, already heated to boiling point, watching its every move, froze my young blood and made my two eyes, like stars, start from their spheres, as I have heard Jeeves put it". Bertie then tells her Orlo is in the village, and describes her reaction: "I have said that her face had hardened as the result of going about the place socking policemen, but now it had gone all soft. And while her two eyes didn't actually start from their spheres, they widened to about the size of regulation golf balls, and a tender smile lit up her map". Near the end of the novel, when Jeeves finds Bertie tied and gagged, he frees him and offers him coffee. Bertie responds: "'A great idea. And make it strong,' I said, hoping that it would take the taste of Plank's tobacco pouch away. 'And when you return, I shall a tale unfold which will make you jump as if you'd sat on a fretful porpentine" (chapter 19).
552:… was the last of the Bertie Wooster canon. We cannot pretend that this book (first published in 1974) is among the best, but its author was incapable of not being funny. A doctor scratching his nose with his stethoscope tells Bertie, who feels under the weather, that he sees no objection to his visiting his aunt, so long as the conditions are right. "'Whereabout in Worcestershire does she live?' 'Near a town called Market Snodsbury.' 'Is the air pure there?' 'Excursion trains are run for people to breathe it.'" The author's emphasis on ping-pong dialogue reflects long experience as a writer for the stage. His work translates effortlessly to television, because characters, plots and lines are those of great sitcom".
433:, his last completed novel. Jeeves is a close parallel to Holmes, since he is the problem solver, while Bertie resembles Watson, being the admiring onlooker who chronicles their adventures. However, instead of having them be two social equals sharing a flat, Wodehouse gains additional humour by making Bertie the master and Jeeves the servant—then making it clear that Jeeves is really the one in charge. Jeeves and Bertie mimic the language of Holmes and Watson multiple times (though occasionally Bertie presumes to compare himself to Holmes before his plan inevitably fails). The most extended Holmes-Watson style conversation between Bertie and Jeeves occurs in
536:(22 April 1975): ""The Cat-nappers" features those favorites of the Wodehouse stock company, Jeeves the butler ('Would pusillanimous be the word for which you are groping, sir?') and Bertie Wooster ('Quite possibly. I know it begins with pu.') The ingredients are quite familiar: a theft, a sundered heart, an aunt, 'a hearty good morning to you, aged relative,' and numerous concatenations. People cross paths and call each other things like 'wee sleekit timorous cowering beastie' and 'elderly little gawd-help-us,' but, as always, everything rights itself in the end, with no real harm done to anyone".

New York, which they eventually do. What better way to get the young master to shift-ho than to keep him festooned with hot cats? Besides, we never learn anything about this aunt of his. Is it not possible that she didn't really own the cat, but that Jeeves had her claim ownership in order to straighten everything out?" Milstein also commented that the fact that such speculation is possible, since Bertie learns little about Jeeves's machinations in the end unlike in the previous novels, shows that in this novel
Wodehouse is making the reader work harder to learn all the facts.
28:
511:(17 October 1974): "The master is now spreading himself a bit thin—a laugh a page, rather than a line. And I don't care for all this up-dating—references to protest marches and civil disobedience. … Enough of this carping, for who else could possibly write, 'She uttered a sound rather like an elephant taking its foot out of a mud hole in a Burmese teak-forest'? I asked that question of a friend. (Not one of us.) 'Anyone else could', he replied. 'Tcha!' I said. And I meant it to sting".
387:(with that novel having none, as Bertie is not present in the book). In order to make the abbreviations comprehensible, Bertie either introduces a word first and then abbreviates it, or abbreviates a familiar, clichéd phrase. Wodehouse uses these abbreviations to repeat information in varied and humorous ways. For example, Bertie uses three abbreviations in a passage in chapter 3:
561:(31 December 2015): "This year I revisited an old favourite, Pelham Grenville Wodehouse’s "Aunts Aren’t Gentlemen" that first lit up my life nearly 40 years ago when I was a callow youth. Over the years I have read bits of this little masterpiece but this year I read all 167 pages of it again and marveled at the sheer joie de vivre of the world of Wodehouse’s books".
278:. On the way, Bertie sees Vanessa Cook, a headstrong girl he once proposed to but no longer wants to marry, leading a protest march. She is with her fiancé Orlo J. Porter, an acquaintance of Bertie's. Orlo and Vanessa are unable to marry since Vanessa's father, the trustee of Orlo's inheritance, refuses to give Orlo his inheritance because Orlo is a

Bertie with a hunting crop, Plank, who is Cook's guest, advises Bertie to leave, which he hastily does. Jeeves informs Bertie that Cook's horse Potato Chip and
Briscoe's horse Simla will soon compete in a race at Bridmouth-on-Sea, and to perform well, Potato Chip must be near this stray cat that it recently befriended.

At one point in the novel, Bertie returns the kidnapped cat but then finds that the cat has ended up back at his place and does not know how this happened. Wodehouse scholar

Jeeves realized that the stray cat actually belongs to his aunt. Bertie and Jeeves make a deal with Cook to lend him the cat until the race is over and not press charges for tying Bertie up, in exchange for Cook paying Mrs. Pigott a fee and giving Orlo his inheritance.
