[Nerving herself]: It’s going to make you just crazy, but I’m going to tell you just exactly what it is, Tony, because I ain’t going to have you thinking afterwards that I wasn’t grateful or that I ain’t been happy here . . . happier than I ever been in my whole life. . . .
Tony
Amy!
Amy
Wait a minute. . . . I got to confess, Tony. I got to tell you the whole business so’s you won’t be thinking I been any worse than just what I have. . . .
Tony
Amy!
Amy
Yeah. . . . And I don’t want you blaming Joe no more’n what you blame me and anyway you’re a-bound to find out sooner or later, an’ it’ll hurt you a lot less in the long run if I tell you the truth right now, and I got to tell you the truth anyway. I simply got to. Wait a minute, Tony! I’m going to tell you the truth and after I go away and you don’t see me no more you can say: “Well, she wasn’t no good but it wasn’t my fault.” Because it wasn’t your fault Tony.
