Kellinghausen.

Beata, from now on there will be no one to help you.

Beata.

Thank you. (With an intense effort, she walks out of the room.)

Kellinghausen (to Richard).

And now----?

Richard.

Do what you like. Say what you like. Curse me--shoot me. I sha'n't defend myself.

Kellinghausen.

You admit that one of us must die?
