scene: “mr. fairlie reveals anne’s ident-ty”

(mr. fairlie’s study. glyde is there; in front of mr fairlie is a doc-ment)

[glyde]
here
use this pen
sign here and here
and we’ll be done

(mr. fairlie takes the pen and signs)

[mr. fairlie]
there is just the small question of my future

[glyde]
yes?

[mr. fairlie]
limmeridge house has been my home for many years
you have no plans to sell, sir?

[glyde]
no immediate plans

[mr. fairlie]
then my future here is -ssured?
i am old, sir
and infirm

[glyde]
i am well aware of that

[mr. fairlie]
so you have no plans?

[glyde]
i leave straight from here for a long sojourn on the continent. my seat on the train is booked. sir, your signature

[mr. fairlie signs]

[mr. fairlie]
her estate is your
spend it wisely, glyde

[glyde]
thank you kindly, sir

[mr. fairlie]
tragic that she died…
stay and have one drink
in memory of my niece

[glyde]
i have to catch my train

[mr. fairlie]
may she rest in peace

[glyde]
but sir, i can’t miss the train

(glyde picks up the doc-ments, smiles, then leaves. fairlie is left alone a moment. he looks at the portrait of his brother)

[mr. fairlie]
don’t haunt me in this way, brother!
i have done your dirty work
for far too long
for years, i’ve kept your secrets
i brought up your children
they weren’t mine!
this has brought me ill health, unhappiness
that’s your legacy!

i wanted no part of this!

[servant]
(off stage)
you can’t go in there!

(there is the sound of a kerfuffle outside, and suddenly hartright and marian enter, with a servant)

[hartright]
we have some pressing questions!

[mr. fairlie]
explain this rude intrusion!

[hartright]
you must tell us, who’s anne catherick?

[marian]
uncle, you have got to help us!

[mr. fairlie]
i don’t know what you speak of!

[hartright]
there’s no more time for secrets

[marian]
long ago, her mother worked here

[hartright]
we won’t leave without an answer!

[mr. fairlie]
what presumption!
know your place, sir!

[hartright]
all along you’ve known the truth-

[marian]
good god! anne catherick’s dead, sir!

she lies in laura’s grave!

[mr. fairlie]
what nonsense are you speaking? it is laura who is dead, god rest her soul. my niece is dead…

(suddenly there is the sound of laura playing the piano. mr. fairlie listens)

[marian]
come

(marian wheels him round and laura is revealed to him)

[marian]
believe your eyes, uncle

[mr. fairlie]
laura!

[laura]
i was placed in the asylum. anne want to my grave—if you ever loved me, uncle, tell me who she was!

[mr. fairlie]
your father loved the ladies
anne’s mother was a pretty one
and you can guess the rest

though you and anne were born a year apart
you could easily have p-ssed for twins
save you were wanted
and she was not

[laura]
she was my sister?

[mr. fairlie]
yes

[laura]
and glyde k!lled her

[mr. fairlie]
what?

[hartright]
he won’t get away with this

[mr. fairlie]
i’m afraid he already has. he’s on his way to the continent. your estate has already p-ssed to him. he left just before you arrived

[laura]
what is the secret my sister spoke of? uncle, do you know?

[mr. fairlie]
i -ssure you, i know nothing more

i’m sorry

[laura]
then it is over. glyde has won

[hartright]
we can catch him
we can head him off
he’ll need to take the london train

[marian]
i’ll go with you!
laura, you rest here

[laura]
no, i’ll never rest again
we can stop him
i have a plan!
anne shall haunt him
one last time!

(they exit in haste. mr. fairlie is left alone)
