[BISHOP and TIPPY go.]

MARTIN. [To no one at all.] Damn it all!

LAURA. If you'd kept still he wouldn't have done it.

KEN. [Roughly.] Are you ashamed? Trying to apologize for my apologizing?

LAURA. No, Ken, no.

KEN. You're right to be ashamed of me....

MARTIN. Damn if anybody makes sense around here!

KEN. Didn't you hear my father? He said I'd feel better about it in the morning. [Sinks into apathy.] In the morning!

TIPPY. [Returning.] Well ...

MARTIN. It's been a fine day!
