Gee, Mary, I’ve got other things besides costumes on my mind.
Mary
What is worrying you? That man who was here just now? [Jack nods.] What’s the matter with him?
Jack
Nothing the matter with him. He brought me some news about my father and mother.
Mary
Oh, it isn’t fair! It isn’t fair for him to disturb you when you are all keyed up before your opening tonight.... Oh, Jack—I just want to keep you away from everything—from everybody—until tonight is over.
Jack
You’ve got the right hunch all right. Mary, Yudelson told me things that are making me hate myself.
