Florence. [To Hossefrosse] Mrs. Pampinelli’s looking for you.

Mrs. Ritter. [Calling] Here he is, Mrs. Pampinelli! [Hossefrosse steps quickly to the left door and starts in, just as Mrs. Pampinelli comes out through the right door. Florence steps over to the left door and catches Hossefrosse by the arm, and pulls him back.]

Mrs. Pampinelli. [Coming through the right door] Where is he?

Mrs. Ritter. [Pointing to Hossefrosse] There he is! [She laughs.]

Florence. [Drawing Hossefrosse back] Mrs. Pampinelli wants you!

Hossefrosse. [To Mrs. Pampinelli] I beg your pardon.

Mrs. Pampinelli. Oh, Mr. Hossefrosse!

Hossefrosse. [Crossing to the right towards her] Yes?

Mrs. Pampinelli. Are you all right?

Hossefrosse. I think so, yes.

Mrs. Pampinelli. How is your make-up?
