Nonsense! You must have them. Pepi promised that he would give them to him. For the love of God, Berti, tell me you have them!
Gregor

[Turning sharply on him]
Don’t lie. You must have them.
Gregor
[Rising]
I have not.
Emilia
Fool! I want them. I have to have them, do you hear? You must find them!
Gregor
Where are they?
Emilia
How do I know? Look for them! Bring them here! Why, that is why I came here today, Berti.
Gregor
Yes?
Emilia
Where are they? For God’s sake, think!
Gregor
Hasn’t Prus got them?
