Mr. Freeman: I’ll see you about this in the morning. (At the door he turns and starts to speak.) Frankie—— (He gets Toby in his vision again and collapses.) No, never mind ... I’ll see you in the morning.
[Even after the door has shut behind him the situation is beyond words; Toby is still motionless, but there is an ugly look in her face.... John is the first to speak.
John: I’m awfully sorry.
Toby: I’m going home.
John: I’m awfully sorry....
Toby: My things are in there. (She makes for his room.)
John (between her and the door): Toby!
Toby: Let me go ... I feel dirty all over.
John: Let me come with you—please.
