And now moving through a couple scenes (well, they're considered two scenes in DC's script) so that we can reach/set the current scene:
6 INT: FIRST FLOOR STAIRWAY - NIGHT 6 - 5
Maggie ENTERS SHOT, comes downstairs. As she reaches first floor corridor she turns left. CAMERA PANS with her, TRUCKS IN BACK of her until she reaches the open card room door. She stops. Through the open door, with Maggie in f.g., ROGER COLLINS can be seen. He is an austere, proud man in his forties and David's father. He sits in an armchair by the fire, sipping brandy and reading Proust. Absorbed in his reading, he does not take notice of her.
MAGGIE EVANS - CLOSE UP - 6
She is trying to decide whether to tell him David is missing. She makes her decision, is about to move toward him.
7 INT: CARD ROOM - NIGHT - 2 SHOT 7 - 7 ROGER - MEDIUM SHOT
as he senses someone in the room, looks up, sees her. He lowers his book.

And that's when today's quote -
Page 2/Scene 7 - Roger: 'Yes, Miss Evans? Something I can do for you?'
comes up.
And when it comes to the dialogue, the descriptions, and the directions for these scenes, we have no way at this point of knowing if what's scripted, crossed out, and/or added by DC are how things actually played out because the scenes are no longer in the film and appear to be lost.
However, I do have a still to share from Scene 6/DC's Scene 5:
And here is the full version of the still I cropped for today's graphic for Scene 7:
