UNA. As hard working as chorus girls--only. Don't be snobbish, George.
Of course a conductor is more unusual, I admit. I can't help that
though---- [To her father.] You shouldn't have called me "Una," if you
didn't want me to be unique.
BRAITHEWAITE [reminiscently]. That was most unfortunate--most. It was
your mother's idea. She believed in symbols--and in a small family.
UNA. Oh! Was that why----? Well, no matter. I've always thought it meant
individuality and I've done my best to live up to it. [She looks at the
statue.] That statue ought to be on the other side of the room.
BRAITHEWAITE. I'll have some of the men move it to-morrow.
UNA. I'd like to see the effect now.
BRAITHEWAITE [slightly annoyed at this seeming irrelevance]. I wish I
could teach you concentration. I'm not strong enough to move it myself,
dear, and----
GEORGE. Can I?
