Tony

The Doctor
Ten, anyway!
Tony

[The music is loud again as Joe and Ah Gee come back from the cellar with the new barrel of wine. They toad it on the wheelbarrow and Ah Gee takes it off to the thirsty populace. Joe remains behind.]
The Doctor
In the meanwhile Amy’s going to have her hands full, taking care of you.
Tony
[Violently]: I don’ marry with no woman for mak’ her work. I don’t want my Amy do nothing but only be happy an’ fat.
Joe
There ain’t nothin’ too good for Tony. He marries a fine wife to play the piano for him an’ he’s goin’ to rent a trained nurse to take care of him.
[Ah Gee is greeted with shouts of “Vino! Vino!” from the men and “Viva Antonio” from the girls.]
