She’s very easily upset, isn’t she?
Marsh.
It’s only since you came that things haven’t gone right. We never used to have scenes.
Norah.
Do you blame me? I came prepared to like her and help her. She met all my advances with suspicion.
Marsh.
She thinks you look down upon her. You ought to remember that she never had your opportunities. She’s earned her own living from the time she was thirteen. You can’t expect in her the refinements of a woman who’s led the protected life that you have.
Norah.
I haven’t said a word that could be turned into the least suggestion of disapproval of anything she did.
Marsh.
