SCARL That man looking at us and smiling. The nasty dog. KATHL My dear, don't you know? That's Rhett Butler. He's from Charleston. He has the most terrible reputation! SCARL He looks as if -as if he knows what I look like without my shimmy! KATHL How ? Why, my dear, he isn't received! He's had to spend most of his time up North because his folks in Charleston won't even speak to him. He was expelled from West Point, he's so fast. And then there's that business about that girl he wouldn't marry. SCARL Tell! Tell! KATHL Well, he took her out buggy riding in the late afternoon without chaperone and then,and then he refused to marry her! (whisper) SCARL (whisper) KATHL No, but she was ruined just the same.
