Amy decides to humour him so far. She would like to sit in the lovely stage way, when they know so precisely where the chair is that they can sit without a glance at it. But she dare not, though Ginevra would have risked it. Steve is emboldened to say: 'By the way, you have not told me _your_ name.' AMY, nervously, 'If you please, do you mind my not telling it?'

STEVE, awed, 'My secret? What is it?' He rushes rapidly through a well-spent youth. AMY, risking a good deal, 'It is this: that woman is your wife.' STEVE. 'What woman?' AMY. 'The woman who dined with you here this evening.' STEVE. 'With me?' AMY, icily, 'This is useless; as I have already said, the game is up.'
