32. So you came back, you rat?
33. No, it isn’t. can you try to say it natually, please!
34. Look, what do you want? The first time I said it natually. And that wasn’t right.
35. Mary, can you say it natually, with an English accent³?
36. Ok, so you came back, you rat?
37. Will that do?
38. Yes, that will do. The play is starting in 2 hours. God⁴ help us!
39. My God! Mary is in this play!
40. Oh, yes. Didn’t you know?
41. Of course I didn’t! You didn’t tell me! This is terrible!
42. I must go immediately⁵. Excuse me, please!
43. What’s the matter, Marco? Why don’t you want to see her?
44. Oh, something happened in Rome⁶. It wasn’t very nice. I really must go Aiko, excuse me!
45. Sssh! It’s starting!
46. Where is your husband, my lady?
47. I left him in Rome Delilah. I left him because he was a bad, bad man.
48. My heart, Dellilah, is broken⁷, broken, broken! He did this to me!
49. And what if he comes back, my lady?
50. If he comes back, Delilah, I’ll say this to him: “so you came back, you rat?”
51. You sad, lonely little man! I know why you came back!
52. Because you’re nothing without me! Nothing! And you know that now! You belong to me, you little rat.
53. And do you know what I’ll do with you?
54. What will you do with him my lady?
55. I’ll break you into little pieces! Like that!
56. Well, what did you think of the play?
57. I was very… interesting. Well, I’ll go home now. See you, Aiko1
58. Aren’t you going to say hello to Mary? She will be very angry if you don’t.
59. Oh, alright.
60. Hi, there, everybody! Why hello, it’s Marco!
61. Oh, er…hello Mary!
62. Look, I’m very sorry you didn’t have a good time in Rome.
63. I mean, you’re a very modern girl, Mary, and my parents are a bit old fashioned, they just don’t like young people very much, I’m afraid.
64. It’s not just your parents, is it, Marco? Anyway, let’s forget about it! We can still be friends, can’t we?
65. Oh, yes, I hope so!
66. Anyway, did you see the play?
67. Of course I saw it. You looked at me all the time.
68. Oh, no, you’re wrong there, Marco. I didn’t see you at all, I can’t see a thing without my glasses!
