The R. F. D.
[Nudging him]: Do you think she . . . ?

The R. F. D.

Father McKee

[He puts grip down inside the bedroom door. At the same time Angelo and Giorgio carry in Amy’s pathetic little trunk, which they take into the bedroom.]
The R. F. D.
Well, I got my deliveries.
Father McKee
I’ll come along with you. You stay here an’ keep things conversational, Joe.
