When I was a kid I wanted to spit farther than anybody.

JANE

Good-by.

[She starts up to door.

BEN

And so you’re going to break your word?

JANE (hurt—turns)

BEN

I don’t know what ’twas you promised mother, but you’ve broke your word. No man ever needed a woman more’n I need you, and you’re leaving me.
