That is not all. Mrs. Chalmers sent the maid and the boy down to the machine and remained.
{Margaret}
(_Quickly._) But only for a moment
{Hubbard}
Much longer--much, much longer. I know how long I was kicking my heels and waiting.
{Margaret}
(_Desperately._) I say it was but for a moment--a short moment.
{Starkweather}
(_Abruptly, to Hubbard._) Where were you?
{Hubbard}
In Knox's bedroom. The fool had forgotten all about me. He was too delighted with his--er--new visitor.
{Starkweather}
You said you saw.
{Hubbard}
The bedroom door was ajar. I opened it.
{Starkweather}
What did you see?
{Margaret}
(_Appealing to Hubbard._) Have you no mercy? I say it was only a moment.
(_Hubbard shrugs his shoulders._)
{Starkweather}
We'll settle the length of that moment Tommy is here, and so is the maid. Connie, Margaret's maid is here, isn't she? (_Connie does not answer._) Answer me!
{Connie}
Yes.
{Starkweather}
{Dobleman}.
Ring for a maid and tell her to fetch Tommy and Mrs. Chalmer's maid.
(_Dobleman goes to desk and pushes b.u.t.ton once._)
{Margaret}
No! Not Tommy!
{Starkweather}
(_Looking shrewdly at Margaret, to Dobleman._) Mrs. Chalmer's maid will do.
(_A knock is heard at left rear. Dobleman opens door and talks to maid. Closes door._)
{Starkweather}
Lock it.
(_Dobleman locks door._)
{Chalmers}
(_Coming over to Margaret._) So you, the immaculate one, have been playing fast and loose.
{Margaret}
You have no right to talk to me that way, Tom--
{Chalmers}
I am your husband.
{Margaret}
You have long since ceased being that.
{Chalmers}
What do you mean?
{Margaret}
I mean just what you have in mind about yourself right now.
{Chalmers}
Madge, you are merely conjecturing. You know nothing against me.
