JOHNNY stops and looks round at her.

MR MARCH. [Moving a little towards her] Joan!

MRS MARCH. She – wants – to – be – loved. It's the way of the world.

MARY. [Turning] Mother!

MRS MARCH. You thought she wanted – to be saved. Silly! She – just – wants – to – be – loved. Quite natural!

MR MARCH. Joan, what's happened to you?

MRS MARCH. [Smiling and nodding] See – people – as – they – are! Then you won't be – disappointed. Don't – have – ideals! Have – vision – just simple – vision!

MR MARCH. Your mother's not well.

MRS MARCH. [Passing her hand over her forehead] It's hot in here!

MR MARCH. Mary!

MARY throws open the French windows.

MRS MARCH. [Delightfully] The room's full of GAS. Open the windows! Open! And let's walk – out – into the air!

She turns and walks delicately out through the opened windows; JOHNNY and MARY follow her. The moonlight and the air flood in.

COOK. [Coming to the table and taking up the empty decanter] My Holy Ma!

MR MARCH. Is this the Millennium, Cook?

COOK. Oh! Master Geoffrey – there isn't a millehennium. There's too much human nature. We must look things in the face.

MR MARCH. Ah! Neither up – nor down – but straight in the face! Quite a thought, Cook! Quite a thought!

CURTAIN.
