OLIVIA (pointing to two cards): Look.
MRS. BRAMSON (infuriated): I saw that! Leave me alone, and don't interfere.
A pause. DAN _makes a quick movement and puts one card on another.
(Pleased and interested, quite unconscious to the difference in her attitude_) Oh, yes, dear, of course….
OLIVIA (as MRS. BRAMSON makes a move): No, that's a spade.
MRS. BRAMSON (sharply): No such thing; it's a club. It's got a wiggle on it.
DAN: They both got wiggles on 'em. (Pointing to another card)
This is a club.
MRS. BRAMSON: Oh yes, dear, so it is! OLIVIA (writing): The ironmonger says there were two extra gallons of paraffin not paid for.
MRS. BRAMSON: And they won't be paid for either—not if I have to go to law about it.
A pause. She coughs absently.
