Act 2 Scene 1 Flashcards

1
Q

(Scene begins)

WBOT. WIKHSWBP. SOKHMNDTD.

A

We’ve been over this. When I knew her she was Barbara Pepper. She obviously kept her married name despite the divorce.

Q

Like what?

TSMLYG. LOOTSPOTVM. TINMF.

A

That suffering martyr look you get. Like one of those sad portraits of the Virgin Mother. This is not my fault.

Q

Well, Mildred, if you’d been a little more discriminating in your choices, instead of… taking up an extracurricular.

IANGTDCIMBIEMY,B.

YR,WIWNYOIWGPCTHATISICCEM,CHN,D,MTA,BWFTG,ATMMOCTTSDCI. WOWDTNCMGM?

A

I am not going to defend choices I made before I even met you, Bob. You’re right, when I was nineteen years old I wasn’t giving proper consideration to how a teacher I screwed in Canada could eventually marry, change her name, divorce, move to America, begin working for the government, and threaten my marriage of convenience to the State Department’s cheif inquisitor. Why oh why did that never cross my goddamn mind?

Is that what you think? Of the work I do? Chief Inquisitor?

Frankly, yes, Bob. It’s gotten completely out of hand.

… It’s not an indictment on moral terms, it’s realistically assessing risk.

Q

… Brought you some chicken soup.

O,K! TSLAD. B,KBYSCS.

A

Oh, Kitty! This smells like a dream. Bob, Kitty brought you some chicken soup.

20
Q

Thanks Kitty.

IGTTCHCSICHSS!

A

I’m gonna try to catch his cold so I can have some soup!

21
Q

Oh, you silly!

WIYI,BIHFYTCACBTO. WIYGLGTTSASDTWP?

A

We’d invite you in, but I’d hate for you to catch a cold before the opera. What if you gave little germies to the singers and shut down the whole production?

22
Q

That’s solid thinking, Millie.

TYFTS,YDHTGTTT.

A

Thank you for the soup, you didn’t have to go to the trouble.

23
Q

Yes! They’re supposed to be very therapeutic.

N! SATWT.

A

Nummy! Sorry about the wasted ticket.

24
Q

Oh, funniest thing! I found someone to take it!

WL!

A

What luck!

25
Q

Millie and I? Oh my yes, we go back quite a ways.

TATESF.

A

Through all those endless social functions.

26
Q

Oh, gracious, he sounds awful.

ISTTMPSM.

A

I should tend to my poor sick man.

27
Q

Of course, Millie dear. We’ll talk soon.

CW.

A

Can’t wait.

28
Q

Alrighty!

A–B–CISYFAM? WKGN? IDFYTSTNSIPUATSYR.

A

Actually – Barbie – could I steal you for a moment? While Kitty gets Normie? I’m dead for you to see the new stationary I picked up at that shop you recommended.

29
Q

Oh, Barbie, don’t! The germs. You’ll shut down the whole production!

WTAWTOB,IBF.

A

We’ll throw a wet towel on Bob, it’ll be fine.

30
Q

Alrighty-ditey. Ta, Millie!

T!

A

Ta!

31
Q

I could ask you the same question, Bob. You seem to have made a miraculous recovery.

BAKAYWPTTH.

A

Bob already knows anything you were planning to tell him.

32
Q

… Answer me now, or answer my concern when I file it on Monday.

INAS-H,B. ITALSWIWVY,JOOTATNA.

A

I’m not a switch-hitter, Barbara. I tried a little something when I was very young, just once or twice and then never again.

33
Q

Which was it? Once, or twice?

WSTM?

A

Why should that matter?

34
Q

Once means just me, twice means more than me.

BD,ISSYHTHATBT.

A

Bob darling, I’m so sorry you have to hear all this blue talk.

35
Q

… Barbie told me you adore poetry.

R?

A

Really?

36
Q

Yes! I told her that!

YD?

A

You did?

37
Q

MILLIE! Dear. What’s the recipe for minted cherry gelatin mold you mentioned this afternoon?

O,N,JPCJAU,DOQCOMJITHW. WST,PIOCOD,DG. ISFAS,D,OSMG.

A

Oh, Norma, just prepare cherry Jell-O as usual, dissolving one quarter cup of mint jelly in the hot water. When slightly thickened, pour in one cup of drained, diced grapefruit. It’s swell for a salad, dessert, or spicy meat garnish.

38
Q

This is bad, this is so incredibly bad. Poetry?

SIMTTFP,IHATRN,IMHWS,IISTIWJWM.

A

She introduced me to these French poets, I had all these romantic notions, I must have written something, if I signed them I would’ve just written “Mildred.”

39
Q

… What do they say?

HIIK,IWADA. P”OYDB”,ABODM.

A

Hell if I know, it was decades ago. Probably “Open your delicate blossom,” a bunch of dyke malarkey.

40
Q

Because I’m Bob Martindale!

TCH. TIAD.

A

They’ll compare handwriting. This is a disaster.

41
Q

… God, backing you into a corner in front of the boss’s wife.

IWJOT!

A

It was just one time!

42
Q

Well, operating without a plan now isn’t doing us any favors.

IS,J,YHABIYNTO?

A

I’m sorry, Jimmy, you have a brilliant idea you neglected to offer?

43
Q

Talk to you tomorrow, Mildred.

F,WWGDSBDAAF.

A

Fellas, whatever we’re gonna do should be decided as a family.

44
Q

… So we’ll all talk in the morning.

B–

A

But –

45
Q

Millie, we will talk in the morning.

R. S.

A

Right. Sure.
