CHRISTY
You are talking to Felix Tournour.
GORMAN Felix Tournour! Ay, ay. Good night, Felix Tournour. When will the Master be back?
TOURNOUR (coming to him) Not till you're out of this, and back in your ward.
GORMAN
Wasn't there a boy speaking to me?
CHRISTY Yes (speaking as if to a deaf man) The Master will be going the rounds in a while, and you can speak to him in the ward.
GORMAN I've a favour to ask the Master, and I don't want to ask it before the others. (To Christy) Will the Master be here soon, a vick vig? [6]
TOURNOUR (taking him by the shoulders) Here, now, come on, this is your way out.
He turns Gorman to the door. As he is putting him out Thomas Muskerry enters
TOURNOUR This oul' fellow came into the office, and I was leading him back into his ward.
MUSKERRY
Leave the man alone.
