DAN: Well, when I say I'll never be found out, what I mean is, no living soul will be able to tell any other living soul about me. (_Beginning to roll up a sleeve, nonchalantly_) Can you think of anybody ... who can go to-morrow ... and tell the police the fire at Forest Corner ... wasn't an accident at all? OLIVIA: I--I can. DAN: Oh, no, you can't. OLIVIA: Why can't I? DAN: Well, I'm up against a very serious problem, I am. But the answer to it is as simple as pie, to a feller like me, simple as pie ... (_Rolling up the other sleeve a little way_) She isn't going to be the only one ... found to-morrow ... in the fire at Forest Corner.... (_After a pause_) Aren't you frightened? You ought to be! (_Smiling_) Don't you think I'll do it? OLIVIA: I know you will. I just can't realise it. DAN: You know, when I told you all that about meself just now, I'd made up my mind then about you. (_Moving slowly after her, round the table, as she steps back towards the window._) That's what I am, see? I make up me mind to do a thing, and I do it.... You remember that first day when I come in here? I said to meself then, There's a girl that's got her wits about her; she knows a thing or two; different from the others. I was right, wasn't I? You----(_Stopping abruptly, and looking round the room_) What's that light in here? OLIVIA: What light? DAN: There's somebody in this room's holdin' a flashlight. OLIVIA: It can't be in this room.... It must be a light in the wood. DAN: It can't be. _A flashlight crosses the window-curtains._ OLIVIA _turns and stares at it._ OLIVIA: Somebody's watching the bungalow.... _He looks at her, as if he did not understand._ DAN (_fiercely_): Nobody's watching!... (_He runs to the window. She backs into the corner of the room._) I'm the one that watches! They've got no call to watch me! I'll go out and tell them that, an' all! (_Opening the curtains in a frenzy_) I'm the one that watches! _The light crosses the window again. He stares, then claps his hands over his eyes. (Backing to the sofa_) Behind them trees. (_Clutching the invalid chair_) Hundreds back of each tree.... Thousands of eyes. The whole damn world's on my track!... (_Sitting on the edge of the sofa, and listening_) What's that?... Like a big wall fallin' over into the sea.... (_Closing his hands over his ears convulsively_.) OLIVIA (_coming down to him_): They mustn't come in.... DAN (_turning to her_): Yes, but ... (_Staring_) you're lookin' at me as if you never see'd me before.... OLIVIA: I never have. Nobody has. You've stopped acting at last. You're real. Frightened. Like a child. (_Putting her arm about his shoulders_) They mustn't come in....
