Nancy's Sister Deborah:
[once Nancy departs] She's not a baby, Ma.

Eleanor Krieger:
Don't tell me she's not a baby.

Nancy's Sister Deborah:
Well, you're treating her like a child!

Eleanor Krieger:
[turning on Deborah] You don't want to see me for two years, fine. I can take it. But I'll tell you what I can't take. I can't take your, your stupid, selfish refusal, either of you! To see that that is my baby there. That is my baby whose body they cut up, who could die, and I can't do anything. Nothing! There's nothing I can do to help her except not let her see that this is killing me too!

[Eleanor storms out to leave Deborah and Elliot there in subdued silence]
