[With great kindness]: Take him home, Stedtman. [Stedtman looks to Jerry, who jerks his head toward the door.]
Stedtman
Good-night, Mr. Jerry. Tell your father we'll be around ... [Daniel turns and looks at him. He backs toward the door.] ... in ... the ... morning!
[Quick exit. He closes the door, which has been left open by Hennig. The two men look at each other. Jerry goes to upper left of table, and pours himself a drink.]
Jerry
Well, you've made a nice mess of it! Why can't you keep your nose out of other people's business? Why did you have to date my leaving Black River?
Daniel
Why did you have to get mixed up with Pearl Hennig?
Jerry
I can take what I want out of life!
