THE SECOND ACT
117
The Doctor
Well. . . . [He shrugs his shoulders.] If he wakes up to-night, give him another one of those powders in a little wine. Wine won’t harm the drug and water might kill the patient. Eh, Padre?
Amy
Is that all, Doctor?
The Doctor
That’s all. I’ll come up early in the morning.
Amy
Thanks.
The Doctor
Sure about the nurse? [She nods.] You take it pretty calmly.
Amy
Ain’t much else I can do, is there?
The Doctor
Good-night. Joe’s fixing you up a bed. He’ll be here if you want him.
Father McKee
[Going with the Doctor]: I ain’t kissed the bride.
