Inspector: Abrieviation: Why should you, it was you who turned her put in first place
Birling (rather taken aback):
Sheila quote on how she has been changed (Act 2)
You and I aren’t the same people who sat down to dinner here.
Mr Birling defending Gerlad’s cheating and her reaction
Now, Sheila, I’m not defending him. But you must understand that a lot of young men -
Sheila: Don’t interfere, please, Father
Birling on feeling no guilt for Eva’s death
‘Still, I can’t accept any responsibility’
Sheila guilt quote (recognises Eva’s picture)
Recognises ‘with a little cry, guves a half-stifled sob, and the runs out.’
Gerald guilt evidence (break)
-and-well, I’d like to be alone for a while-I’d be glad if you’d let me go’
Evidence of Eva guilt

Mrs Birling not believing family would commit crime
(Agitated) ‘I don’t believe it. I won’t believe it…’
Eric half guilt
“You know, don’t you?”
Eric fact guilt
‘Whoever that chap was, the fact remains that I did what I did. And mother did…. And the rest of you did what….
Ending
Birling: looks at others in panic-stricken fashion
As they state guiltily and dumfounded
Eric at beginning presentation
‘Half shy, half assertive’ confused, still potential to change
Eric talking about the rape
Refers to himself as ‘chap’ and tries to make it understandable, reflects social norms
And that’s when it happened. And I don’t even remember-that’s the hellish thing.
Example of Eric’s immaturity
Comes up with short term solutions
Eric on all of them being guilty
‘We did her in all right’

‘Intensely grateful’
Insoector on young people
the young ones. They’re more impressionable
