• Marian Brook : [Marian races in to intercept Mr Russell before he delivers her departure missives to Agnes and Ada] 

  [flustered] 

  Marian Brook : Am I too late?

  Agnes Van Rhijn : Heavens, is there a fire?

  Ada Brook : [shocked]  Marian, you're back!

  Agnes Van Rhijn : [looking to each in the room]  Too late for what? Why shouldn't she be back? What's going on?

  Larry Russell : [Looks at Marian, confused] 

  Ada Brook : [to Marian]  How was your day?

  Marian Brook : Not all it could have been - Mr Russell, how kind of you to come by.

  Agnes Van Rhijn : You were saying, you were here on a mission, Mr Russell? Does it concern those envelopes?

  Marian Brook : *No*.

  Agnes Van Rhijn : *What*?

  Marian Brook : I'm sure Mr Russell went out to catch the evening post, and thought he'd look in to see how you are - isn't that so, Mr Russell?

  Larry Russell : [catching on]  Absolutely - but now it's clear you're both as well as I could hope, so I'll be on my way...

  Ada Brook : ...to the mailbox.

  Marian Brook : Isn't that nice... I'll see you out.

  Agnes Van Rhijn : I feel as if I I'd been watching a play in a foreign language.

  Ada Brook : They're young.

  Agnes Van Rhijn : Is that an observation or an excuse?

• Agnes Van Rhijn : You are glad to be ordered to march into hell and to dance with the devil?

  Ada Brook : I wonder sometimes if you don't slightly overstate your arguments. We cannot be forced to dance.
