- He's probably on his way here now. Hasn't your sister heard from him?

- If she has, she hasn't told me.

- You love her a great deal, don't you?

- Yes. A lot of good that does.

- But my dear child, can't you see that if she feels as your father does...

- Johnny'll fix that. Johnny'll fix everything.

- Oh, if I could only make Julia and Father listen to me. I've got to make them listen.

- Johnny's so sweet. He's so attractive. What's the matter with the girl anyway? She ought to know by now that men like Johnny don't grow on every bush.

- Well, Linda, isn't it just possible that the things we like in Johnny may be the very things that your sister can't stand? And the fate that you feel that he'll save her from may be the one fate in the whole world that she really wants?

- Wouldn't you think she'd be woman enough to hang on? Hang on.

- Yes, if she loves him.

And of course you've heard about me. I'm the black sheep. -Baaa! -That's a goat.
You know, this reminds me a little of the palace of the Emperor Caligula. You remember Caligula, don't you, dear? -Oh, very well indeed. Whatever became of him?
