[NORMA, spoken]
Hello? Is this... Miss Schaefer? Miss Schaefer. You must forgive me for calling so late, but... I really feel it's my duty. It's about Mr. Gillis. You do know a Mr. Gillis? Well... exactly how much do you know about him? Do you know where he lives? Do you know what he lives on?
(sung)
I want to spare you a lot of sadness
I don't know what he's told you
But I can guarantee you
He doesn't live with Mother
Or what you'd call a roommate
He's just a... I can't say it
Poor Betty
You ask him
I'd love to hear his answer
[JOE, spoken]

[NORMA, spoken]
Don't hate me, Joe. I did it bеcause...I need you! Look at me. Look at my hands. Look at my face! Look under my eyes, how could I go back to work if I'm wasting away? Don't stand there hating me, Joe! Shout at me! Strike me! But say you don't hate me!
