SENIOR.  Poor dear!  I’m going to make some fudge, that will make her feel better!

(They start out of the room.)

JUNIOR.  Oh, girls!

(They stop and turn around.  The JUNIOR starts to tell them, hesitates.)

JUNIOR.  They’ll never believe it.  But I know.

SENIOR.  What did you call us back about?

(The JUNIOR catches sight of the bookcase.)

JUNIOR. (with a little smile they do not understand) Oh, nothing,
I’m just glad that isn’t a sectional bookcase!

(The others look at her blankly.)

CURTAIN.
