HE

I won't go!

SHE

You are very strange, indeed.... I'll go!

[She nears the door—Stops.

SHE

Never mind.

BOY

Oh, Henry, it's Ethel.

HE

Bob, won't you be a good sport? We'll turn our backs.

BOY

But will everybody else turn their back?

HE

Old man, can't you see how it is? We're—we're going to be engaged—and Ethel is out there—and—and—well—

BOY

Joe's out there, too.

HE

Well, yes.

SHE

Bob, I shall tell Father on you.

[She starts.

BOY

All right, go ahead. I'll tell Ethel.

SHE

Just wait.

BOY

I'll get out of here!

[Again the two rush precipitately to hold the Boy in place.

HE

Bob, be a man! You are childish and common. You are old enough to know better and I think it's an outrage for you to subject your sister to this fright. We can't go out of here just now—and you're making it very embarrassing for us.

SHE

Mr. Gordon—there's a cape in that closet. Will you get it for Bob.... He says he's cold.

[He goes to the closet.

SHE

Bob, I'll get even with you. You ought to be ashamed. I'm humiliated.

BOY

Why—Sis?

SHE

Imagine my being with a gentleman and having a very naked boy pop into the conversation.

[He returns with the cape.

HE

Here's the cape.

[He tosses it over the Boy's head and suddenly leans over and kisses her.

BOY

Why don't you smother me!

[Boy begins to emerge.

SHE

Bob, be careful.

[He and She turn away.
