Renie. I had an awful afternoon yesterday!

Dolly. You?! You haven't any bills?

Renie. No! [Sighs.] I almost wish I had.

Dolly. Wish you had?!

Renie. I almost envy you the delicious experience of having to confess——

Dolly. Yes dear, you always were fond of scenes, but I'm not!

Renie. And then the heavenly feeling of being forgiven, and taken in the arms of the man you love!

Dolly. Yes, that part of it is all right. It's what comes before——

[With a little shudder.

Renie. After all, your husband isn't a machine. He is a human being!
