[Right after Helene has sobbed her self-confession to George and Doris, they hear Harry shout from the doorway - in full Stanley Kowalski mode]Harry Nash: Are you ready for me yet, George? There's nobody else outside!George Johnson: Harry, come here. I'm, I'm sorry I kept you waiting, Harry. Excuse me.[Helene surreptitiously wipes her eyes]George Johnson: Uh, Harry, this is Helene Shaw. Helene, this is Harry Nash. Ehh, now, if you get the part of Stella, he'll be your husband in the play.[Helene turns to look at Harry and her eyes widen. Music suggesting imminent romance begins to play. Harry is still in his dorky hardware-store outfit, with glasses, hat, and bow-tie, but he removes his glasses and smiles slightly as he looks her up and down appreciatively]George Johnson: Say, I, uh, I wonder if, uh, if you two would read a scene for me from this play, all right? Right here.[Helene tears her eyes away from Harry to look at the playbook]George Johnson: Could you do that?Harry Nash: Sure! If Stella's game.[She looks up, still wide-eyed]Helene Shaw: Huh?Harry Nash: Stella! Stella, that's you. [then, gently:] Stella's my wife.Helene Shaw: [weakly] Oh.[He turns away to remove his vest and shirt, and a heartbeat rhythm replaces the music. Stella sees Harry's muscular back and she can't look away. He begins shadow-boxing, and she begins to fall in love]
