THE SECOND ACT

Joe
Keep a stiff upper lip. Everything’s going to turn out O. K. Good-night.
Amy
You certainly do think you’re God Almighty, don’t you?
Joe
I don’t get you.
Amy
Oh, well, let it go. I guess I don’t feel so good.
Joe
[Still busy with his bed]: Maybe it’s the vino. It don’t agree with some folks.
[A slight pause.]
Amy
I guess I’m just nervous.
Joe
I’d be nervous myself if I’d just been married.
Amy
Would you?
Joe
If I was a girl, I would.
