AUGUSTA. We have to pay for what we do.
MINNIE. And you make it your business to see that we pay.
(A pause.)
Well, I'll go. I didn't know how poor Dr. Jonathan was,—he never said anything about it to me. I'll disappear.
AUGUSTA. You have some good in you.
MINNIE. Don't begin talking to me about good!
(TIMOTHY FARRELL enters, right.)
TIMOTHY. Good morning, ma'am. (Looking at MINNIE and AUGUSTA). I came to fetch Minnie to pass an hour with me.
AUGUSTA (agitated and taken aback). Were—were having a little talk. (She goes up to TIMOTHY.) I'm distressed to hear about Bert!
TIMOTHY. Thank you for your sympathy, ma'am.
