(Roughly tearing her hands away.) Don't you be such a big fool, Daisy. You go to Chung-king and Harry know everything. Maybe he kill you. (DAISY: What do I care?) You go to Chung-king, you never see George no more. George, he love my little Daisy. When Harry gone--George, he come say.... (DAISY: Oh, don't tempt me, it's horrible!)
