DONOHUE. Who did this? CROSBY. We don't know. DONOHUE (_very quietly_). Then I expect we'll have to find out. (_He comes down by the_ R. _end of the chesterfield and stops when he sees_ ROSALIE. _He gives a short laugh as he sees how she is tied to the chair._) What's this? MRS. CROSBY (_rises_). Good Heavens, we forgot to untie her! I'm so sorry. ROSALIE. Thank you, madame. I am quite comfortable. I will stay as I am if you do not mind. MRS. CROSBY. But-- DONOHUE. I think we'll leave things as they are for the present. (MRS. CROSBY _resumes the same seat as before._) ROSALIE. A policeman with brains! Oh, la-la! DONOHUE. Let's see if he can't use them then. (_Moving to _ CROSBY _down_ L.C. _and standing on his_ R. _side._) Now, Mr. Crosby, tell me exactly what happened. CROSBY. I know it sounds foolish, but we were having a spiritualistic seance. Madame la Grange is a medium. |
