Vicki joins Roger in the drawing room where Roger still searches for his keys. Vicki asks if he could do something for her--actually, for his son--I know you don't approve of my being here, but I really think I can help David. Do you? asks Roger. I think he's beginning to trust me, she says, to believe I want to be his friend. I see, says Roger sarcastically--do you think you can trust him? If you'll give me a chance, she says. Oh, you're referring to the little discussion we had several hours ago, he says. You said you wanted me to leave, she reminds him, because of Burke Devlin. If Devlin creates troubles, it's going to affect everyone in this house, says Roger--you, me, David, my sister--all of us--and I just wanted to spare you the pain--that's the only reason I suggested you leave. But I want to stay, very much, she says. But you're a bright, attractive girl, says Roger, there must be dozens of ways for you to earn a living beside being buried in this house--I suppose the decision is up to you--and my sister, he says, since she hired you.[/spoiler]
Aristede tells Petofi that Barnabas is bringing the hand--you must stay alive until he comes.[/spoiler]
