He ain't. I told you he was ashamed to go home. I told you he was gonna stay here an' get you!
Daniel
[Sits on bench in front of table]: Well?
Pearl
[Down stage R. of table]: Well ... he stayed. I went to him ... like I told you ... an' said it wasn't you ... an' ast him to take me back. An' he said I was a liar an' he was gonna get you. I told you all that!
Daniel
Yes; I guess you did.
