Kiss and Tell1945

Corliss Archer:
[Mrs. Archer thinks Corliss is pregnant] Mother, do you think I'm awful?

Janet Archer:
I've already told you what I think, and it hasn't made the slightest impression. You don't seem to realize what a dreadful thing this is. Oh, I don't understand you, Corliss.

Corliss Archer:
Mother, do you hate me? Please, don't hate me.

Janet Archer:
Hate you? Oh, darling! Darling, of course I don't hate you.

Corliss Archer:
You know, I think Daddy'd like to break my neck.

Janet Archer:
Only because he loves you so, you little idiot.

Corliss Archer:
Mom, please don't feel so awful. Oh, Mom, please don't cry. Oh, if only I could explain ...

Janet Archer:
I'm so ashamed, Corliss. I feel it's all my fault.

Corliss Archer:
Oh, Mom, no, no!

Janet Archer:
To think, how we used to dream about the day you'd get married.

Corliss Archer:
But, Mother, we are married.

Janet Archer:
What?

Corliss Archer:
Well, naturally, Mom. I mean, golly. Well, surely you didn't think that - well, naturally we're married.

Janet Archer:
But Corliss -

Corliss Archer:
Mom, how could you possibly think we weren't married?

Janet Archer:
Then why didn't you say so?

Corliss Archer:
Well, I haven't had a chance. Daddy's been yelling ever since, and I was sent to my room.
