David Starner said:
Martha and Irene have a brief discussion about the stress of the situation before the conversation moves into discussing the boyfriend of Irene.

"Lie down Martha, you're shaking like a leaf."
"I can't help it, oh why does this have to happen."
"I'll open the window."
"No, no, don't".
"There's nothing to be frightened about, the police are everywhere."
"You do love him, don't you"...
