Geoffrey. (As he takes her to the door.) How will you get home?

Mrs. Chinn. I can get the Underground from Gower Street, sir.

(They go out talking about last trains and leaving the door open. The next moment the front door is heard to slam.)

(Geoffrey re-enters.)

(Annys has moved round, so that coming back into the room he finds her there.)

Geoffrey. How long have you been in?

(He closes the door.)

Annys. Only a few minutes—while you were at the telephone. I had to rest for a little while. Dr. Whitby brought me back in his motor.

Geoffrey. Was he down there?

Annys. Phoebe had sent for him. I had been taken a little giddy earlier in the day.
