Jinny. You tried to deceive me about it. And if you'll tell me a lie about one thing, you'll tell me a lie about another, and I don't believe one word of all your explanations about the intrigue between you and Ruth Chester!

Jinny. Why did you send for Ruth Chester to come back?
Austin. I have told you before, I am trying to help Miss Chester.
Jinny. "Ruth!"
Austin. I am trying to help her in a great and serious trouble.
Jinny. Why did you send for her to come back? What's the trouble?
Austin. I've told you before I can't tell you.
Jinny. You daren't tell me, and you haven't even the face to tell another lie about it!
