| BERNARD | (rounding on SUZETTE) .... Right. Who are you? |
| SUZETTE | Me? |
| BERNARD | Yes, you! |
| ROBERT | It’s her! |
| BERNARD | Who? |
| ROBERT | You know who. |
| BERNARD | I haven’t the faintest idea who. |
| ROBERT | You don’t know who? |
| BERNARD | Why do you think I was going bananas there? Trying to keep warm? |
| ROBERT | I didn’t know what.... You mean that isn’t her? |
| SUZETTE | Who? |
| BERNARD | Of course it isn’t her. |
| SUZETTE | Who? |
| ROBERT | Then if that isn’t her.... |
| SUZETTE | Who? |
| ROBERT | ....who is she? |
| BERNARD | That’s what I want to know! Who are you? |
| SUZETTE | I’m his girl friend. |
| BERNARD | (to ROBERT) Is this true? |
| ROBERT | No, no. |
| SUZETTE | Yes! |
| ROBERT | No! That’s what I told her to say because I thought she was you-know-who. |
| SUZETTE | Who? |
| ROBERT | But if she isn’t, who is? |
| SUZETTE | Who?? |
| BERNARD | Oh be quiet, you! |
| SUZETTE | Oo, how rude! |
| BERNARD | (patiently) Now, slowly and simply, who are you and what are you doing here? |
| SUZETTE | (to ROBERT) Can I tell him? |
| ROBERT | Yes, yes – tell him. |
| SUZETTE | For real? |
| ROBERT | Please. |
| SUZETTE | I’m Suzette – from the agency. |
| BERNARD | The agency? |
| SUZETTE | The cook. From the agency. You should know. You booked me. |
| BERNARD | (collapsing) Oh my God! |
| ROBERT | You cooked a book... booked a cook? |
| BERNARD | Yes. For dinner tonight. |
| ROBERT | And that’s her? |
| SUZETTE | That’s me. |
| ROBERT | (collapsing beside BERNARD) Oh my God! |
