May I ask who this unfortunate victim is to be? says Gerard. Hearing the front door slam, Gabriel checks his pocket watch--your timing is excellent, he says--the first person who comes through that door is your victim. Gerard turns to look. Samantha enters and innocently appraises them.[/spoiler]
Noting Gerard's upset face, Samantha asks, what's wrong? Nothing, he says. If my brother in law is disturbing you, she begins. We were having a friendly conversation, interrupts Gabriel, until you interrupted. You have such a short memory, Gabriel, smiles Samantha--I go where I please--now you may continue your friendly conversation. She exits. Gerard quickly closes the doors--Gabriel, he says, you're out of your mind. Don't tell me you're surprised, hisses Gabriel, she is the logical victim, isn't she? There must be another way to get the family money! insists Gerard. There isn't, insists Gabriel, I've tried to reason with Father, but his mind is too far deteriorated--Samantha hates me, she always has--as long as she is alive, my days are numbered in this house, and the only solution is to dispose of her--are you still with me or not? I need time to think, says Gerard, slapping his head with his hands. I don't have time--I want your answer! says Gabriel.
