And Sam?
Darrell
Damn Sam! He’s got to give you a divorce! Let him be generous for a change!
Nina
[Sadly but determinedly]
He would be. You must be just to Sam. He’d give his life for my happiness. And this would mean his life. Could we be happy then? You know we couldn’t! And I’ve changed, Ned. You’ve got to realize that. I’m not your old mad Nina. I still love you. I will always love you. But now I love my baby too. His happiness comes first with me!
Darrell
But—he’s mine, too!
Nina
No! You gave him to Sam to save Sam!
Darrell
To hell with Sam! It was to make you happy!
Nina
So I could make Sam happy! That was in it too! I was sincere in that, Ned! If I hadn’t been, I could never have gone to you that first day—or if I had, I’d never have forgiven myself. But as it is I don’t feel guilty or wicked. I have made Sam happy! And I’m proud! I love Sam’s
