ROSE
I say nothin' but that he lies!
FLAMM
Did he swear to that lie?
ROSE is silent.
FLAMM
[Regards ROSE long and searchingly. Then:] Well, mother, think as charitably of me as you can. Try to forgive me as much as possible. I know with the utmost certainty that that matter doesn't concern me in the least any longer! I simply laugh at it! I snap my fingers at it.
MRS. FLAMM
[To ROSE.] Did you deny everything?
