• Mrs. Victoria McChesney : [Mrs. McChesney is explaining to her adopted daughter why a little boy at school called her a bast - -]  That word at school. It frightened you, didn't it? Do you know what it means?

  [Patsy shakes her head] 

  Mrs. Victoria McChesney : And still it frightens you?

  Patsy : I know it's bad.

  Mrs. Victoria McChesney : Well, now, it's not really bad at all! Some people think it's bad just because they don't understand. You see, Patsy, what happened was that a lovely young girl met a handsome young man and they fell in love, but for some reason they couldn't get married. I don't know what the reason was, and it doesn't matter, but their sin is not yours, and they're paying for it terribly.

  Patsy : How?

  Mrs. Victoria McChesney : Because they haven't got you, sweetheart.
