Betrayal memorization Flashcards
Hello
Hello. I’ve only just got here. I meant to be here ages ago. I’m making this stew. It’ll be hours. Are you starving?
Yes.
No really. I’ll never do it. You sit down. I’ll get it on.
What a lovely apron.
Good. What have you been doing?
Just walked through the park.
What was it like?
I just sat down for a bit, under a tree. It was very quiet. I just looked at the serpentine.
And then?
Then I got to Wessex Grove. Number 31. And I climbed the steps and opened the front door and then climbed the stairs and opened this door and found you in a new apron cooking a stew.
It’s on.
Vodka? At lunch time?
Just felt like one. I ran into Judith yesterday. Did she tell you?
Where?
Lunch.
Lunch?
She didn’t tell you?
No.
That’s funny.
What do you mean, lunch? Where?
Gino’s.
Gino’s? What the hell was she doing at Gino’s?
Having lunch. With a woman.
A woman?
Yes.
Gino’s is a long way from the hospital.
Of course it isn’t.
Well… I suppose not. And you?
Me?
What were you doing at Gino’s?
Having lunch with my sister.
Ah.
Judith… didn’t tell you?
I haven’t really seen her. I was out late last night, with Casey. And she was out early this morning. (pause)
Do you think she knows?
Knows?
Does she know? About us?
No. (number 2)
Are you sure?
She’s too busy. At the hospital. And then the kids. She doesn’t go in for… speculation.
And what about clues? Isn’t she interested to… follow clues?
What clues?
Well, there must be some… available for her… to pick up?
There are none… available to her.
Oh. Well… good.
She’s has an admirer.
Really?
… I don’t know exactly what’s going on.
Oh, why shouldn’t she have an admirer? I have an admirer.
Who?
Uuh… you I’d think.
I’m more than that. (pause)
Tell me… have you ever thought of… changing your life?
Changing?
Mmnn.
It’s impossible. (pause)
Do you think she’s being unfaithful to you?
No. I don’t know.
When you were in America, just now, for instance?
No. (number 3)
Have you ever been unfaithful?
To whom?
To me, of course.
No. Have you… to me?
No.
She isn’t. She’s busy. She’s got lots to do. She’s a very good doctor. She likes her life. She loves the kids.
Ah.
She loves me.
Ah.
All that means something.
It certainly does.
But I adore you. I adore you.
Yes. (pause) Listen I have to tell you something.
What?
I’m pregnant. (pause) It wasn’t with anyone else. It was my husband.
