Answer:
Algernon eats some of the cucumber sandwiches but forbids the main character Jack from touching them.
Explanation:
In the play "The Importance of Being Earnest", Algernon is waiting for his aunt, Lady Bracknell, and his cousin, Gwendolen Fairfax, to arrive for some tea. He has ordered cucumber sandwiches for his aunt, but starts to eat them himself. When Mr. Ernest Worthing - Jack -, the main character, arrives and tries to have some sandwiches, Algernon forbids him by saying the sandwiches were exclusively made for his aunt. He allows Jack to have some bread and butter since it was ordered for Gwendolen, and Jack intends to marry her.
