OLIVIA: Oh....
_She senses his insolence, goes self-consciously to the desk and takes out the wool_. DAN: Not much doin' round here for a girl, is there? _No answer_. It is not a very entertaining quarter of the world for a young lady, is it? _He gives it up as a bad job_. DORA _comes in from the kitchen_. DORA (_eagerly_): What did she ... (_confused, seeing_ OLIVIA) Oh, beg pardon, miss.... _She hurries back into the kitchen_. DAN _jerks head after her with a laugh and looks at_ OLIVIA. OLIVIA (_arranging wool at the table_): I'm not a snob, but, in case you ever call here again, I'd like to point out that though I'm employed by my aunt, I'm not quite in Dora's position. DAN: Oh, I hope not ... (_She turns away, confused. He moves to her._) Though I'll be putting it all right for Dora. I'm going to marry her. And-- OLIVIA (_coldly_): I don't believe you. |
