NORWOOD (advancing on him angrily). Now, once and for all, sir——
(KATE comes in, with a hat in each hand, calling to NORWOOD as she comes.)
KATE. Oh, Cyril—which of these two hats—(she sees her husband)—Dennis!
DENNIS (looking at her steadfastly). How are you, Kate?
KATE (stammering). You've—you've come back? (She puts the hats down.)
DENNIS. I've come back. As I was telling Mr. Norwood.
KATE (looking from one to the other). You—?
DENNIS (smiling). Oh, we're quite old friends.
NORWOOD (going to her). I've told him, Kate.
(He takes her hands, and tries to look defiantly at DENNIS, though he is not feeling like that at all.)
