I'm awfully stupid, but if he was innocent, how could they find him guilty? I don't know what you mean.
Alec
I am afraid it's very clear.
Lucy
There must be some horrible mistake.
Alec
I wish there were.
George
[Breaking down into tears and sinking into a chair.] Oh, God! What shall I do?
Lucy
Don't do that, George. We want all our calmness now.
George
Don't you see they all expected it? It was only you and I who believed in his innocence.
Lucy
[To Alec.] Did you hear the evidence?
Alec
Yes.
Lucy
And you followed it carefully?
Alec
Very.
Lucy
What impression did it leave on your mind?
Alec
What can it matter how it affected me?
Lucy
I want to know.
Dick
Lucy, you're torturing us all.
Lucy
If you had been on the jury would your verdict have been the same as theirs?
Alec
I should have been obliged to judge according to my conscience.
Lucy
I see. And you have no doubt that he was guilty?
Alec
Don't ask me these horrible questions.
Lucy
But it's very important. I know that you are a perfectly honest and upright man. If you think he was guilty, there is nothing more to be said.
Alec
The case was so plain that the jury were not out of the box for more than ten minutes.
Lucy
Did the judge say anything?
Alec
[Hesitatingly.] He said there could be no doubt about the justice of the verdict.
Lucy
What else?.. [He looks at her without answering.] You had better tell me now. I shall see it in the papers to-morrow.
Alec
[As though the words were dragged out of him.] He called it a very mean and shameful crime, worse than another man's because your father was a gentleman of ancient family and bore a name of great honour.
Dick
