Margaret.
Otto!

Otto.
Margaret! Is this the room?

Margaret.
Yes.

Otto.
He has gone out as usual?

Margaret.
Yes.

Otto.
When does he return?

Margaret.
A little before midnight—generally.

Otto.
You managed to get the key, then?

Margaret.
He gave it to me himself.

Otto.
Himself?

Margaret.
Yes, for another purpose. [Shuddering.] It is almost as if Fate had arranged everything.

Otto.
So it has. Fate has arranged everything.
