Eileen
That’s not true!
Paul
No? Well, then I’ll tell you something that is true!
Eileen
Don’t you believe him, Fred!
Paul
And thank God I’ve got the courage to tell you at last!
Eileen
He’s a liar, that’s what he is! I tell you he’s a liar!
Fred
Why, what is it?
Paul
You didn’t know your fiancée had a lover, did you?
Fred
What?
Eileen
I tell you it’s a lie. He’s just trying to separate us!
Paul
Am I?
Eileen
He’s just making it up!
Paul
She told you she was engaged to be married! Well, she wasn’t! He was her lover, and he kicked her out, and that’s why she took up with you! I’d have told you long ago, if I hadn’t been a coward!
