Tom, I'll accept a quiet divorce, marry Mr. Knox, and take Tommy with me—on one consideration.

Chalmers

And what is that?

That I retain the letters. They are to be used in his speech this afternoon.

Chalmers

No they're not.

Margaret

Whatever happens, do whatever worst you can possibly do, that speech will be given this afternoon. Your worst to me will be none too great a price for me to pay.
