Eileen
Did you see that? He’s insanely jealous.
Lucille
Well, if that’s jealousy I’ll take a plain lemonade.
Eileen
You don’t know him the way I do! He’s burning up!
Lucille
He controlled it pretty well. He didn’t say anything about a date tonight.
Eileen
How could he, with Stevens here?
Maxie
Well, it won’t be long now. He’s going to hear it at last.
Lucille
Yah. We’re waiting for the verdict.
Maxie
It’s Stevens’ first offense. They’ll acquit him on the grounds of insanity.
He is gone.
Lucille
You know, if they buy that limerick, Stevens’ll be getting up a party for tonight. He was talking about it already.
Eileen
I know.
