Ste. Ah! So it is wasted now?
Walter. Yes. It's wasted now. I'm going to do my best to help you. (Back to fire standing.)
Ste. That's good news, any way.
Walter. Don't count on me for much. But what I can do I will. I'm afraid I must go now. I've a call to make before I'm due at your house.
Ste. Right. See you later.
Walter (to Jim). Say good-night to Mrs. Pilling for me. (Crossing R.)
(Jim opens the door as Walter goes out.)
Good-night.
Ste. (rubbing his hands together). Ah, glad I came. Good thing to rope in young Montgomery.
Jim (sourly). Good, is it?
