(bluntly) Now look here, Ann. This time you've landed yourself; and if Tavy were not in love with you past all salvation he'd have found out what an incorrigible liar you are. (ANN: You misunderstand, Jack. I didn't dare tell Tavy the truth.) No: your daring is generally in the opposite direction. What the devil do you mean by telling Rhoda that I am too vicious to associate with her? How can I ever have any human or decent relations with her again, now that you have poisoned her mind in that abominable way? (ANN: I know you are incapable of behaving badly.) Then why did you lie to her?
