Mrs. Muskat

I suppose you think I have no eyes in my head. I see everything that goes on in my carousel. During the whole ride she let Liliom fool with her—the shameless hussy!


Julie

He did not fool with me! I don't let any man fool with me!


Mrs. Muskat

He leaned against you all through the ride!


Julie

He leaned against the panther. He always leans against something, doesn't he? Everybody leans where he wants. I couldn't tell him not to lean, if he always leans, could I? But he didn't lay a hand on me.


Mrs. Muskat

Oh, didn't he? And I suppose he didn't put his hand around your waist, either?


Marie

And if he did? What of it?


Mrs. Muskat

You hold your tongue! No one's asking you—just you keep out of it.
