Bill (pokes head in from fire-escape). Say, Peggy! (Play-play fades.)
Peggy (appears in doorway, Left, having Mss. in her hand). Oh, Bill! You startled me so!
Bill. What's the matter?
Peggy. I thought you, were out in the snow!
Bill. In the SNOW.
Peggy. Why, you see—
Bill. Snow in the middle of July?
Peggy. Why, you see, dear, Will is writing a play, and the play is supposed to be in winter, and he's got you in the snow.
Bill (in excitement). Me? Me in Will's play!
Peggy. Yes.
