Edna
No, no! I don’t want to talk to him! I mustn’t!
Maxie
But he’s in trouble. And you’re the only one that can help him.
Edna
He don’t want to see me!
Maxie
Let me tell him you’re here. It can’t do any harm. You needn’t answer. Only promise me one thing.
Edna is silent.
Edna
What?
Maxie
No matter what happens, come and see me afterward. Will you? The second door on the left, down that hall.
Edna nods.; Maxie goes. Edna is alone for a moment. Two moments, even. Then a pretty excited Fred comes on.
