Ep #720 (1897) - Jenny - 'You MUSTN'T be frightened of me.'
From "Robservations 11/8/02 - #720-721 - A Pissed-Off Wife Takes Revenge"
"Your name is Quentin, she says--"And mine is Jenny." He asks what's happened to her. I thought we were going to be so happy together, she says. We still can be, he says, nothing has changed--"You're still my wife, Jenny!" (SURPRISE!!!!!!) She's excited to hear this. Yes, she says, I am--why did you go away and leave me? He suggests they discuss that on the way back to Collinwood. She pulls away from him and says they aren't allowed. Yes we are, he assures her--it's all right, you're safe. I knew you were back, says Jenny, I heard the music from that room they keep me in. He wants to take her back there. I knew I'd find you here, she teases, and you know why, don't he?--you always came here, to meet people, remember? No, he says. "To meet other women!" she shrieks. He denies it. You thought me pretty, she says, getting in close--do you still? Yes, he says--it's getting late, we must go back to Collinwood. She asks him to kiss her first--you mustn't be frightened of me! I'm not, he claims. Then kiss me! she demands. He doesn't look thrilled at the prospect, but he does, on the lips, for a brief moment. "You won't go away anymore, Quentin," she says. He looks guilty. "And you won't lie to me, either, I feel so sure of that," she says. He suggests they go now. Yes, it's time to go, she agrees, a huge, scary grin on her face.[/spoiler]
