PRIMROSE DEANE.

(Running over to him.) I haven't been long, have I?

TED MORRIS.

(Turning away from her.) Haven't you? It's seemed a long time. (Handing her the letter without looking at her.) I think Theodore wants to see you about this letter. He's in the garden.

PRIMROSE DEANE.

(She takes the letter but hardly glances at it.) Don't—don't you want to see me? You—you were going to ask me if—if I meant—something or other.

TED MORRIS.

(Desperately.) Miss Deane, I—I acted a little strangely just now. Please try to forget it. I—I don't think I quite knew what I was doing.

PRIMROSE DEANE

I will try to forget it, Mr. Morris.
