(Nobody says anything for a moment.) Oh, I see. Well, then, you've got the wrong number, I'm afraid, sir. Goodbye.
兩人沉默了片刻。哦，我明白了。好吧，那么恐怕您打錯電話了，先生。再見。
Oh, I-er- Goodbye. (James goes back to his work, getting the table ready for dinner. He is smiling and singing quietly to himself.)(Henry sits in his chair, with a very white face.)
哦，我——呃——再見。詹姆斯繼續(xù)干活兒，往餐桌上擺放餐具。他面露微笑，輕輕哼著歌。亨利則坐在椅子上，面色慘白。
