DR. GOLL. (Outside.) Open the door!
LULU. (Already sprung to her feet.) Hide me! O God, hide me!

LULU. (Holding back Schwarz as he goes toward the door.) He will strike me dead!
DR. GOLL. (Hammering.) Open the door!
LULU. (Sunk down before Schwarz, gripping his knees.) He'll beat me to death! He'll beat me to death!
SCHWARZ. Stand up.... (The door falls crashing into the studio. Dr. Goll with blood-shot eyes rushes upon Schwarz and Lulu, brandishing his stick.)
DR. GOLL. You dogs! You ...! (Pants, struggles for breath a few seconds, and falls headlong to the ground. Schwarz's knees tremble. Lulu has fled to the door. Pause.)
