“a pretty girl in her early twenties,
very pleased with life and rather excited”
“yes, go
on, mummy”
“(rather distressed) i can’t help thinking about
this girl - destroying herself”
“but these girls aren’t
cheap labour - they’re people”
“she was a very pretty girl…
that didn’t make it any better”
“i went to the manager and told him
this girl had been very impertinent”
“and if i could
help her now, i would”
“i’ll never, never do it again to anybody…
i feel now i can never go there again”
“why- you fool-
he knows, of course he knows. And i hate to think how much he knows that we don’t know yet. You’ll see.”
“you musnt try to build up a mind of wall
between us and that girl. if you do the inspector will just break it down. And it’ll be all the worse when he does”
“no, he’s giving us
the rope. so that we hang ourselves”
“i suppose we’re
all nice people now”
“he inspected
us all right”

the way you talk”
