Edwina
- John McBurney: If you could have anything, what's your biggest wish? If you could have anything in the world, what would it be?
- Edwina: Anything?
- John McBurney: Yeah. Anything.
- Edwina: To be taken far away from here.
- [rushes out of the room]
- Martha Farnsworth: That dress is very becoming, Miss Edwina.
- Edwina: Thank you.
- Alicia: There might be other attractive shoulders here if we were all permitted to wear such dresses.
- Martha Farnsworth: I wouldn't say it's entirely suitable to wear at a young ladies' school; though, we know Miss Edwina's accustomed to town society with different views. I would suggest that we - change the subject. And let Miss Edwina draw her shawl.
- [Edwina covers her bare shoulders with her shawl]
- Martha Farnsworth: Yes. That will avoid anyones speculation on the subject.
- Martha Farnsworth: Miss Alicia made the pie herself.
- Alicia: I hope you like apple pie?
- John McBurney: I love apple pie. It's me favorite.
- Edwina: Is that my recipe, Alicia?
- Alicia: It is.
- Amy: I picked the apples.
- John McBurney: In the middle of battle with all the iron flying overhead, me first thought was to bury me-self.
- Edwina: But, when you couldn't, you ran.
- John McBurney: I did. I surely deed I did.
- Edwina: That wasn't very brave of you to run.
- John McBurney: Maybe not. But, it was smart, I think.
- Edwina: Because you're alive?
- John McBurney: And now I've met you.
- Edwina: You don't even know me.
- John McBurney: How did you end up in this place?
- Edwina: Why are you so interested in me?
- John McBurney: I just recollect you and I are both a little out of place here. I bet you're the independent sort - and the other girls, they don't even know how to get close to you. And then, of course, there's your looks.
- Edwina: That doesn't matter to me.
- John McBurney: Oh, you can bet it matters to other people. Sorry to tell you and I hope you don't mind me telling you; but, well, in all my travels, I've never come across such a delicate beauty as yours.
- John McBurney: If you could have anything, what's your biggest wish? If you could have anything in the world, what would it be?
- Edwina: Anything?
- John McBurney: Yeah, anything.
- Edwina: To be taken far away from here.
