He was never drunk in the
accepted meaning of the word; rather he walked in a kind of stupefaction. He tired of his popcorn and placed it under his seat. ”
Part 3
When Ann Veronica found herself in her father’s study that evening it seemed
to her for a moment as though all the events of the past six months had been a
dream. Why? While the
front of his mind was busy warning her not to fall into the hopeless miseries of
underpaid teaching, and explaining his idea that for women of initiative, quite as
much as for men, the world of business had by far the best chances, the back
chambers of his brain were busy with the problem of that “Why?”
His first idea as a man of the world was to explain her unrest by a lover, some
secret or forbidden or impossible lover. She had to think of something fast, or her
reaction would start to make believers out of everyone. The light disappeared. The investigators
should have thought to check inside the garbage can. "You want me, then?" she said. My best endeavours shall
be used to bring you off, on the easy terms I have mentioned. I didn't mean it. He was by no means certain that she
would not in fact attempt to blow off his head as she had threatened. That he had resolved
upon its execution, whatever it might be, was evident from his saying aloud,—

the man in you will rise up and demand strong drink.
