Sam:
She's dropped the divorce. She's going home on the Rex day after tomorrow from Naples. I've got to go with her.
Edith:
I won't let you.
Sam:
What else can I do?
Edith:
I won't let you go back to her.
Sam:
I know this is a jolt. It's a jolt to me too.
Edith:
I won't see you killed by her selfishness.
Sam:
You don't understand. It'll be tough on her with all the talk there'll be.
Edith:
I love you, and she doesn't. You're miserable with her.
Sam:
I know.
Edith:
A moment ago, you had the whole world in your hands. I won't let her take it away from you.
Sam:
She's not taking it away.
Edith:
You were a young man a minute ago. I know everything's starting again. You shriveled the same way, every letter you got from her.
Sam:
I can't think.
Edith:
You're wrong to go back...
Sam:
Please, be fair. She's in a hole. She needs me.
Edith:
She does not need you, and you might think of me.
Sam:
I am thinking of you.
...
Edith:
One word from her, and you trot back.
Sam:
You've got to be patient with me.
Edith:
What is this hold she has over you?
Sam:
I've got to take care of her. A man's habits get pretty strong in 20 years. I'll go into town and make the reservations. It's giving you up that hurts.
