" All I want is my own name and a modest job to buy sugar for my coffee! You can’t believe it, can you—you can’t believe that a woman has to be crazy-out-of-her-mind to live alone—in one room—by herself! (He grips her arm, but she resists him.) GEORGIE. Why are you holding me? I said—you are holding me!
Her eyes are suddenly wild with rage and desire. He kisses her “fully on the mouth,” according to the stage directions, before they step apart.
GEORGIE. How could you be so cruel to me a moment ago … to be so mad at someone you didn’t even know … [She turns away from him.] No one has looked at me as a woman for years.
He turns to leave, and just before he reaches the door, she speaks:
GEORGIE. You kissed me—don’t let it give you any ideas, Mr. Dodd. "
