Oh, Joe! Joe!! Joe!!!

What’s the matter, Tony. Ain’t you feelin’ good?

Ees Amy!

[ sits in the chair, hitching it closer to the bed.]

What do you want for a nickel? She married you, didn’t she?

I’m scare’, Joe. I’m scare’ verra bad. I love my Amy, but my Amy don’ love me.

Give her time, can’t you? She wouldn’t have married you if she wasn’t all set to go through on the level.

You think?

Hell, I know.
