Women Chatter

[Myra]
Dolores! Dolores, come to the window!

[Dolores]
What's wrong?

[Myra]
Oh, hold on, I gotta catch my breath! I ran all the way from the fishmonger!

(Pasha appears in her window)

[Pasha]
I heard you all the way from the bedroom! What'd I miss?

[Dolores]
What happened at the fishmonger?

[Pasha]
How should *I* know what happened at the fishmonger! I was in the bedroom!

[Myra]
Will you two just listen!

You'll never guess who's getting married and why!

[Dolores]
Grace Kelly, because she's tired of Hollywood

[Pasha]
You're a panic, you are

[Dolores]
Ah, tell us, already!

[Myra]
Aggie's girl, Janey!

[Dolores and Pasha]
To the one with the glasses?

[Myra]
That's what I heard!

[Pasha]
Do you think the father caught them upstairs?

[Myra]
Maybe
But it might be something more than that
I been thinking Janie looks a little fat!

[Pasha]
Maybe she just likes to eat

[Myra]
Or maybe we'll soon be hear the patter of little feet!

[Dolores]
You suppose?

[Pasha]
No, no, no—that's how rumors get started

[Myra]
It's not a rumor, I heard it at the fishmonger!
