Quentin Where's Tony?

Jonique He had some business to take care of.

Quentin Oh.

Jonique You must be Mr. Collins. (He nods) He said that you would be here this morning. You always get a shave and hair cut.

Quentin Yes. I'll come back later when Tony is here. (He starts to leave.)

Jonique What's wrong? Don't you think that I can do as good a job as Tony?

Quentin I didn't say that.

Jonique I see. Because I'm female I'm not good enough. He never said that you were so set in your ways that you couldn't change.

Quentin I...

Jonique I'll tell Tony to expect you later.

Quentin Well I'm already here so you might as well do your job. (He sits in a chair. She gets a hot towel and places it on his face. She smiles.)

Act 2 Scene 2

(Half an hour later Quentin exits. Jonique goes in the back. She places some of Quentin's hair and a piece of cloth blood on it in a small metal container. She takes out a dagger and cuts her finger. She lets it bleed on top of the cloth. She whispers something. All of a sudden there is a fire in the bowl. She smiles. )
