Scene Description




Dialogue

Marjorie Houseman
What am I doing wrong?

Jake Houseman
(Addressing Marjorie)
You're lining it up a little wrong, Marge.

(Addressing Baby)
If your mother ever leaves me, it'll be for Arnold Palmer.

Baby Houseman
Daddy, someone's in trouble.

Jake Houseman
(Addressing Baby)
Besides your mother?

(Addressing Marjorie)
Now you're over-correcting, Marge.

Baby Houseman
And you always told me if someone was in trouble, I should try to help. Could you lend me $250?

Jake Houseman
Are you all right, Baby? Are you in some kind of trouble?

Baby Houseman
No, no, it's not me. Could you loan it to me?

Jake Houseman
That's a lot of money, Baby. What's it for?

Marjorie Houseman
Baby, stand up straight.

Baby Houseman
I can't tell you. It's hard for me to say that to you, but I can't. You always said you could tell me anything. I can't tell you this.

Jake Houseman
It's not illegal, is it?

Baby Houseman
No, Daddy.

Jake Houseman
That was a stupid thing to ask. Forgive me. I'll have it for you before dinner.

Marjorie Houseman
Is everything all right?

Jake Houseman
Fine.

Baby Houseman
Thanks, Daddy.
