斯坦利：这事发生在你收到电报之前还是之后？
布兰奇：电报？电报……哦，事实上，电报是……
斯坦利：事实上，根本就没有电报。也没有什么百万富翁。米奇也没有带着玫瑰花来，因为我知道他在哪里。根本没这回事，只有幻想和说谎的把戏。看看你自己吧！看看你自己穿着那一身破破烂烂的狂欢节行头的样子，那是从捡破烂的那儿花50美分租来的。还戴着疯子的皇冠，你以为你是哪门子的女王？知道吗，从一开始我就对你一清二楚，你一次都没能蒙骗过我的眼睛。你一来到这儿就在这地方洒上香粉，洒满香水。还把一个纸灯笼罩在灯泡上，你瞧，这地方变成埃及王国了，而你就是尼罗河女王。坐上你的王座，喝着我的酒。你明白我说的吗？哈！哈！你听到我说话没有？哈！哈！哈！
