Gustav. Take a walk through the room.
Adolf. I can't.
Gustav. You must; if you don't I'll hit you.
Adolf [stands up]. What do you say?
Gustav. I've told you—I'll hit you.
Adolf [jumps back to the circular table on the right, beside himself.] You!
Gustav [follows him]. Bravo! That's driven the blood to your head, and woken up your self-respect. Now I'll give you an electric shock. Where's your wife?
Adolf. Where's my wife?
Gustav. Yes.
Adolf. At—a meeting.
