SHE

No, I want to stay here. I love this nook.

[He laughs nervously as she crosses to the curtains.

I should love to fill it full of great tall lilies.

[By this time she has become lyric and swept her arms against the curtains: with a cry, rushing to him for protection.

Henry, there's a man behind those curtains!

HE

I think we'd better go.

SHE

Oh, Henry, you're not going to leave him here.

HE

We'd better.

BOY [poking his head and a naked arm through the curtains

Yes, you'd better, because I'm going to get out of here.

SHE

Bob! You get your clothes on!

BOY

I told Mr. Gordon to get my clothes.

SHE

Mr. Gordon—

BOY

Call him Henry—just once—please, Genevieve.

HE (stiffly)

I'll get your clothes. Where are they?

BOY

In my room.

HE

What do you want?

BOY

Everything.

SHE (straightening up)

Don't be common, Robert.

[He starts for the door.

HE

No, I'm not going.

SHE

Hen—Mr. Gordon!… Very well. I'll go!

HE

No, you won't go either!

SHE

Please!

BOY

Well, I'll go.

[Boy moves as though to part the curtains. She screams a stifled little scream and both he and she rush to the curtains to hold them together.

SHE

Oh, Bob, if you won't get out I'll do anything for you.

BOY

Well, I'm cold.

SHE

Mr. Gordon, please go.
