act 1, scene 8 Flashcards
well hello, andy
amos. my name is amos
did you bring the rest of the five thousand dollars?
well- here’s five hundred on my insurance. and three hundred dollars that i borrowed from the guys at the garage. and seven hundred out of the building and loan fund-
that’s two thousand
and that’s all i got so far.
what about her father?
i phoned him yesterday and he told me he’ll probably be able to raise some money later.
-that his daughter went to hell ten years ago and she could stay there forever before he’d spend a cent to get her out.
i’ll pay you twenty dollars a week on my salary. i’ll give you notes with interest- double, triple- till every cent is paid.
and you said yes. but you haven’t got five thousand dollars so i figure you’re a dirty liar.
i’m sorry, mr. flynn.
plus, we tell em that if by due process of law she gets hanged-
hanged?
and that’s what i call playing square
I don’t know, mr. flynn
