Jean

But I am!... I am not going to be a dependent old maid. [Rex, bewildered, only gazes at her.] But, first, I want you to know exactly what you're getting for your money. That seems only businesslike.

Rex

[recoils]

Would you only marry me for that?

Jean

I told you I loved another man. Do you want me?

Rex
