The Green One
It’s getting late. I’ve had such a pleasant afternoon. You won’t forget bridge next Monday?
(Mrs. Frowde responds limply and as The Green One turns, Miss Stannard rises and halts her with a look.)
Miss Stannard
Good afternoon.
Mrs. Frowde
Must you?
The Green One
Yes, I’m going to Cartier’s for the prizes. (To Patricia) Good afternoon. (After a moment’s hesitation.) Good afternoon, Miss Stannard.
(The Green One goes out as Miss Stannard eyes Mrs. Frowde in silence while Patricia and Silverton speak unheard.)
