Hester Collyer
- Mrs. Elton: I wish I could understand what it was that possessed you to do a dreadful thing like that
- Hester Collyer: What possessed me, Mrs Elton? The Devil, I suppose
- Mrs. Elton: I should just think it was
- Hester Collyer: I'm not sure I meant quite that kind of devil. But when you're between any kind of devil and the deep blue sea, the deep blue sometimes looks very inviting. It did last night
- Mrs. Elton: I can't make you out. You're not a wicked woman. What you did last night was wicked and cruel. Now supposing it had been Mr Page and not you that we found lying there this morning... how would you have felt?
- Hester Collyer: Very, very surprised
- Mrs. Elton: Nothing more?
- Hester Collyer: Oh, yes, a lot more; a whole universe more. But he's not lying there, Mrs Elton, he's playing golf. And when he comes back from golf, he must know nothing of what happened last night. You understand? Nothing.
